<is the line-eater bug fixed yet?>

Vis a vis Twilight Zone:
	There were five seasons altogether, of which only the fourth was
hour-longs (i.e. seasons 1,2,3 and 5 were half-hours).
	My copy of "The Twilight Zone Companion" (*highly* recommended!)
is at home, or I could look up the complete list.  Suggest you scrounge
around bookstores for a copy, or get your local bookstore to order it.
It has a tremendous amount of information about the series, including
summaries, cast lists and background info about each and every one of the
episodes in all four seasons.

Vis a vis Dark Shadows:
	Yes, I was definitely a fan of the series.  Glad to hear it's still
being re-run somewhere, even though no local stations have picked it up.
By the way, Kate Jackson has actually been a regular in *three* prime-time
series since DS, not just two; the one I had forgotten was a cop show called
"The Rookies", in which she played the wife of a police officer.
	Also, Lara Parker (Angelique) has appeared in episodes of numerous
series ("Kojak", "Battlestar Galactica", etc), and John Karlen is now a
regular on "Cagney and Lacey", playing the husband of Cagney (or is it Lacey?
the brunette, anyway).
	The list of people from that series who have gone on to prime-time
work is impressive.
