Is the Dark Shadows Cast Still Alive (Cast Deaths) 

It's Julia Hoffman not Holman

What about david, Sarah,angelic, and Amy,

The soap opera Passions was inspired by Dark Shadows, Bewitched and Days of our Lives. Reilly was very creative with the soap Passion

I saw it on the FireStick, and Amazon Prime

Y'know, the fact that your every response is "Thanks for watching" tells me that you never really read the comments.

Easily, with the really dumb mistakes they make on these videos----all the time.

Because he is unfamiliar with the show judging from the "Julia Holman" comment in the video.

Angelique was the second biggest star of the show after Barnabas Collins. How DARE YOU LEAVE HER OUT OF THIS VIDEO?!?!?!?!

@@robertgaudio4649 Oh I totally agree, Robert. I made my own negative comment last week under Dianne's. Did you watch DS when you were a kid? I started at almost 10 in April '67 when Barnabas was introduced. Was in the 4th grade! :-)

Yes, I watched it, but not from the very beginning.

I started watching that in first grade, enjoyed it and remember talking about it in show and tell during class, that was about 1967, at that point in my life before dark shadows, I had no qualms about going to bed in the dark, after watching dark shadows for a while- I started sleeping with the lights on.

Thanks for watching, Theresa!

I was OBSESSED with the show.

Yup, we ALL ran home daily to watch. I mean we really ran. I grew up on Staten Island, and us NYC kids were the ones responsible for getting Dark Shadows pushed to a 4 pm time slot. In the late summer and fall of 1968, NYC teachers went on strike. (as usual) they were out for about 2 months if I recall. When they returned, the NYC schools added one hour more to the school day for us kids to make up for time lost due to teachers unions greediness . We went in half hour earlier and stayed a half hour later. Until 3:30. So since Dark aired at 3:30, lots of kids missed part of the show. So someone started a write in campaign to ABC TV channel 7 in midtown Manhattan. They immediately got overwhelmed with hundreds of thousands of letters from all over the country requesting Dark to be moved to a later time slot. It didn't take long. And they did. In The Fall of 1968 was the reason everyone started running home from school so not to miss it. This was when the best story line was going on too. It was right about after the Dream curse sequence (thank you Angelique!) and when Amy and David Collins discovered Quentins ghost in the west wing, if I recall. Thats When Dark became a classic cult show and had the highest ratings in the nation. A few times me and friends went up to ABC in NY to wait with the hundreds of fans lined at ABC studio on 57th St (I think it was on 57th st then) to wait to see some cast members and get autographs. It was a great time to be a kid in New York, even tho 1968 was a turbulent year with race riots, MLK, and RFK assassinations a month apart in April and June. But yes, New York city kids were the reason everyone started running home in the fall of 1968, to watch the show. A cult phenomenon, 55 years later, one of televisions greatest stories.

@@stripervince1 WELL Thank you so much for that 🤗 …..

Thanks for watching, Richard!

Her name is Lara (not Laura) Parker, who died last October 12, 2023 at 84 years.

David Selby once appeared on The Waltons who fell in love with Olivia.

We're glad to know that you love the show. Thank you for sharing your thoughts. If we may ask, which episode did you like the best?

Thanks for watching, Suzi!

He had such a commanding presence rarely seen on screen.

And, he was oddly sexy!

@@Nacho-Mamma Angelique thought so.

Wonderful actor!💙💙💙

Thanks for watching, Bobbi!

Me too. I still can't believe my mom let me watch it. I couldn't sleep at night. I would go and sit with my dad at the kitchen table in the wee hours of the morning. lol

Thanks for watching!

Skipped Lara Parker as well. She recently passed away.

He was the scariest to me! lol

David selby who played Quentin, appeared on the nighttime soap, falcon Crest.

@@harperstacey9604 I remember that.

💙💙💙💙

Blue whale theme music Carolyn danced to.

Thanks for watching, Play account!

I can forgive that as the show was way past it's prime when she came on

Thanks for watching, Kathy!

@Kathy Trimble: Actress Lara ( Lara, NOT Laura ) Parker ( "Angelique" on "Dark Shadows" ) is STILL alive, and still going strong, at age 82. Although now days she is more of a book author / audio book reader, although she has been seen in a few movie roles [ especially a blink-and-you'd-miss-her cameo appearance in the BAD ( MY opinion ) Tim Burton - Johnny Depp 'Dark Shadows' ( 2012 ) movie, along side fellow original "Dark Shadows" cast mates Kathryn Leigh Scott and Jonathan Frid. ] She ( Lara Parker ) is twice married and has three children, and a grandson. "Willie ( NOT "Willy" ) Loomis" was played by actor John Karlen*. And, yes, Karlen went on to play "Harvey Lacey," "Mary Beth Lacey's" devoted husband, in "Cagney and Lacey" ( Lacey, NOT Lacy ) [ 1982 - 1988, ] as well as reprising that role in the four ( 4 ) made-for-T.V. movie sequels. Unfortunately, John Karlen died of heart failure in January of 2020, at the age of 86. * actually was "Willie Loomis"#2; actor James Hall was, briefly, "Willie Loomis"#1 ( episodes 199 - 205. )

@@RobertC4458 She taught high school in the '70s and '80s I think

@@Bigbadwhitecracker Who did?

Thanks for watching!

She is still alive and kicking, in her early 80's now.

Thanks for watching, Molly!

Man those cheek bones!

Lara Parker became a writer. She wrote and has sold four Dark Shadows fiction books and some wonderful Dark Shadows Audio Drama CDs that can be bought off of her official Lara Parker Blog / Store / autographed items. She is still still beautiful into her older age. I love hearing her expressive voice and how she talks / reads in the Dark Shadows audio drama stories from the Big Finish Productions website, I mean she sounds the same as when she did the TV show. Loved Lara Parker in the episode of Carl Kochak The Night Stalker episode The Trevi Collection wherein she played a beautiful 1970's fashion model who just happened to be a Witch! :) great fun.

@@thejupiter2574 - She had such beautiful and piercing eyes.

Thanks for watching, Molly!

Glad to know that you're a fan of Dark Shadows! Thank you so much for sharing this. What other types of video would you like to see on our channel?

Thanks for watching, Rick!

Thanks for watching!

Yeah they really need a Part 2 to this one

Thanks for watching, Tom!

I don't see that on her TV credits, Tom. Was it one of the earlier seasons, or the later ones?

She was also on an episode of The Night Stalker. She played a witch on there, very reminiscent of her roles on Dark Shadows. Ah that wonderful scary laugh!! I don’t think anyone could laugh like her.

She was never on Charlie's Angeles, Tom. That's INCORRECT and not true.

She was on 'The Night Stalker' Tom, not Charlie's Angels. You're confused somehow.

Thanks for watching, Patti!

it' Free to view all 'five years' of the show on Tubi TV and on Plex TV no charge and the later Barnabas episodes on the IMDB website.

My wife and I are as well. Enjoy.

Thanks for watching, Ferria!

Thanks for watching!

I was disappointed that neither Anita Bolster (Bathia Mapes, the good witch) nor Bob O’Connell (convivial Blue Whale bartender/proprietor) was mentioned either.

He did mention Kathryn Leigh Scott, even as a writer.

They were all pretty

Thanks for watching!

Thanks for watching!

I'm glad that someone else caught that.

It is rerun on Decades channel at 4 am

It’s on TUBI for free I’m watching the whole thing.

Yeah, He got several things wrong!

Thanks for watching, Al!

There are two versions. Quentin's Theme, with lyrics and the instrumental Charles Randolph Greene Sound.I'm kinda partial to the instrumental. Is Isles Alexandra's married name? Although he never mentioned she was married. Just trying to figure out where the Isles name came from for her.😕

@@MG-es2no your the first person that remembers Quentons theme. I've mentioned it a few times with no response. I like the music version the most as well. I need to start watching Dark Shadows from the beginning on Pluto. I've been hooked on the rifleman one of my other favorite shows from those days. I wish I had an answer to your questions, hopefully someone else will be able to help you. Thank you for the reply.

@@FactsVerse It just occurred to me that the character Daphne played by Kate Jackson wasn't mentioned here. I had a major crush on her as a kid.

I play it during Halloween for my preschool class. I have taught them to waltz, as best they could, to the instrumental. Like I said I have the vinyl album, and I have the album on CD.

Thanks for watching, Gladys!

Thanks for watching, Landi!

Yeah sorry Depp fans. But Frid WAS Barnabus

Thanks for watching!

We do!

That was actress Kathleen Cody She is on Facebook btw. I think youtube has her episode that she did of The Partridge Family from the 70's and she did several Disney family movies in the 70's as well.

She was also in the film Race with the devil .

Thanks for watching, Connie!

We're happy to know that you're a fan of the series. In your opinion, what is its best episode?

We're a big fan of Jonathan too. What other types of video would you like to see on our channel?

ohhh yeah, actress Diana Millay as David's mother, she was so good in that role. Dan Curtis really liked Diana Millay for that part. She had a role in the Night of Dark Shadows movie

My favorite Alexandra Moltke and Jonathan Frid

Thanks for watching!

Many of the DS actors attended very impressive colleges and universities. In addition to your mentioning of Jonathan Frid at Yale University: Thayer David and Joel Crothers - Harvard University Roger Davis and Donald Briscoe - Columbia University Grayson Hall -Cornell University Louis Edmonds - Carnegie-Mellon University Terry Ann Crawford - Brown University, but did not attend due to a car accident. Nancy Barrett - UCLA

A glorified walk on role.he was supported by his former co stars. He was not well at all.

I wouldn't go see that. The '91 series wasn't horrible. But there's nothing like the original.

Thanks for watching!

Hehehe!

Thanks for watching, Deborah!

Thanks for watching!

Thanks for watching, Carol!

?was/were Alexandra Moltke's(?) picture(s) shown during the KLS segment?

Actually, A LOT of errors and omisions that could have been EASILY CORRECTED with RESEARCH...my BIG GRIPE with Facts/Verse!

Jonathan frid couldn't find any decent roles after Dark shadows. From Ms. Harper Stacey.

Thanks for watching!

The entire 1897 storyline was all about Quentin and his dastardly doings, so yes, he was one of the major characters and an integral part of the series. I would classify as highly popular with the fans, on a par with Barnabas, Angelique and Julia.

Playing numerous roles kept the cast off the unemployment line.
