Soap Operas don't come much more bizarre than Dark Shadows, in fact its safe to say that it was probably the worlds first supernatural soapie. Intended to be that way from the start the series began with Victoria Winters arriving in the town of Collinsport, Maine to act as a governess for David Collins at the family home of Collinwood.

Best. Soap. Ever.




I never saw the original Dark Shadows but I loved the 90s remake NBC made. I was young and haven't seen it since it aired so it could be totally terrible to adult me.
Alas it was canceled and ended on a cliffhanger.
The remake tried very hard to incorporate a lot of the old storylines quickly. It's too bad they didn't have time to sort everything out before getting canceled. :(
Have you seen the Johnny Depp movie? Is it any good?
It was... well, I thought it was terrible. It had a few good moments, but on the whole it wasn't what I was hoping for.
That's how it looked. Glad I skipped it.
