When I was in college I used to watch Dark Shadows every day after school on the Sci-Fi Channel. It was a rare treat since the cable package my parents had didn't include sci-fi. And while I loved the show, I never had the chance to go back and watch the show from the beginning. With the recent DVDs releases and the show's presence on Netflix streaming this is no longer a problem, but I have noticed something that I was hoping one of our members might clear up for me.
On both netflix and on the new Dark Shadows Vol. 1 dvd, the episode numbering begins with 210. Is that a production number or did the show exist previously in some other incarnation? Kind of like how Popeye took over Thimble Theatre after it had been running for nearly a decade with a completely different star. Just wonder is all. Thanks! Like Number 5, I appreciate any and all input!
