I wonder if you could recommend how much of this show i should watch. I heard it gets really bad at some point so which episodes, if any, do you think should be avoided for sanity's sake?
ReplyDeleteWhat I would do is start watching the 1795 story from its beginning, doing a little research so you know who Vicki is, who Barnabas and Julia are, etc. But it's a complete story unto itself with new characters, strong and interesting (and complex) relationships, and just sort of sweeps along. Start with Episode 365, and then go back and watch 210 forward. The initial Barnabas episodes are a little slow, but they have a lot of atmosphere if that's your thing. Good luck!!!
ReplyDeleteOh I don't mind the slowness at all I already saw up to 215 and I love it so far. I'm just not sure I'd like it still once it turns silly.
