David "Quentin" Selby on Rizzoli & Isles

In other Dark Shadows news, David Selby will be appearing on the TV show Rizzoli & Isles this coming Tuesday, June 25, 2013. 

I've not been able to find out anything about the role so I guess I'll have to wait two days.  I love the book series, but stopped watching the show as it is nothing at all like the books. The books are far darker, deeper and have a heavy sense of intrigue with a secret society focused on criminal behavior interspersed into the story line. As they altered Maura's character so much I doubt they'll ever bring that in, however, I could see Selby as perfect for a role that might introduce such a flavor. But I doubt it, so chances are this will be the only episode I bother with this season.

However, I do highly recommend the books whether  you enjoy the series or not.

Sad beginnings

I had long ago thought about doing a project such as this. A sort of role playing, yet sometimes truthful, telling of my imaginary and imaginative apprenticeship with the lovely witch Angelique and other ways that the original Dark Shadows warped my delicate mind. The death of the talented Jonathan Frid who played Barnabas Collins so deliciously has saddened me greatly.

A few tributes, from those who knew him far better than I:
