Has anyone every heard of a...?

Question

Soap opera called dark shadows? My dad used to watch it whaen it was on when he was 13, but it was cancelled. Anyway I heard that they put the reruns on the sci-fi channel. I went to the website, but couldn't find it. Does anyone know if sci-fi does put on reruns of this soap opera & when? Thanks.

There is another show that starts with the word dark, but it's dark angel. Not the one I'm looking for.

Answer 1

Actually, back in the early 90's they remade Dark Shadows but only showed a few episodes and cancelled that one too. The original used to be on sci-fi but I haven't seen it in awhile so probably not anymore. After Angel ( not Dark Angel) was cancelled they yet again were gonna try and do another remake but plans fell through.
One of my children is named after one of the characters on that show too!
Here is a site that is current but I'm sorry to say there doesn't appear to be a schedule for sci-fi or any other station http://www.collinwood.net/

Oh yes, Barnabas RULES!!!!!!!!!!! Interesting fact: When DS originally ran, it was a reg soap opera, but when the ratings weren't so good, the creators gave it the supernatural flair we all know and love today. Sci-Fi Channel runs it every now and then, then pulls it for a while and so on and so on.

BTW: I think there are DVD's out for the newer version. I saw a few..not too bad but the originals are much better, IMO

Answer 3

i think that show might come on at like 3 in the morning on sci fi
It might have been dark something else though

Answer 4

i've only heard of it because once someone asked me if I was named after a character on the show. Other than that one person recalling and explaining the show to me, I have never heard of or seen it

Answer 5

Yeah I heard of it - used to watch it too - vampires and stuff like that.

I too thought it came back but I don't know what network... You could always get the DVD...
