Then & Now
John: Burke seating Carolyn next to the letter on the couch is a bit obvious. Perhaps if he had placed it on the end table...
I do admire David holding his aunt's protection over his father's head.
Christine: I hadn't appreciated how early the writers began planting the idea that Roger's animosity toward David might stem from doubts that he was the boy's father.
Shadows on the Wall
John: Lots of letters left lying about in this series.
Roger drinks! Of course, it's probably easier to track how often he comes into the drawing room and doesn't pour himself a fresh one.
David's Japanese robot toy is still a standout piece. It appears to be a Horikawa "Attacking Martian" robot. I seem to recall he'll have other toys in his room, though I don't know if they warrant cataloguing.
Christine: I was amused that, shortly after insisting that one drink won't make him an alcoholic, Roger pours himself another.
With the amount of grease, dirt–or perhaps Bosco chocolate syrup–covering David, I'm surprised he didn't leave a trail of evidence throughout Collinwood.
While I don't recall seeing David play with toys very often, I think enough interesting toys appear throughout the series to warrant cataloguing.
Would anyone else be interested in a Collection page devoted to the toys that appear throughout Dark Shadows?
