My name is Ron Plimpton and i played the bartender in this scene. It's nice to see some of my early bit parts on YT...I've been a character actor for 50 years now and have many bit parts under my belt. I have played bar tenders, bums, hobos, cops, janitors, etc....I have a Character Acting school in Virginia, I am trying to bring back the fine art of classic Character acting!

Not many people realize the importance of Character Actors....they are the "backbone" of the stories and/or story lines.....glad to see you are doing so well.  Best of luck to you!

@Victory378 Me too! Growing up, I used to watch it almost every day after school...

[Victory378]

I loved DS

@xxWEJxx Ditto. Just heard about this thing. Mind blowing. Jonny Depp and Tim Burton are doing a remake. No big surprise there.

LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!

@PETEBUK1 sexual tension? uhhhh what...?

[southport97]

The movie is going to suck. Not blood mind you, but just bomb. You can't just re-create 60s goth-noir horror Plus the last good movie that Tim Burton made was Sleepy Hollow.

Boys playing with their sabers. LOL

@jennyflan They join a list of great DS devotees including LauraCollins--I guess I will have to go out and buy the DVD's.

Shame jwags and thayerdavid's stuff has been pulled from youtube. I was nearing the end of the dream curse storyline.

[jennyflan]

Good old-fashioned homoerotic fun. "thrust" and "swords" "superb swordsmen". I think the writers were having a bit of fun here. Love the cheesy music too :-)

[hotroute]

@CelticRebel100 I just started watching the series from the beginning a few weeks ago and now with the episodes being pulled I'll have to find them elsewhere but I agree. Mitch Ryan had a more rugged and youthful bearing while the other guy (Anthony George) seems like a high school principal.

[Baronesslace]

Johnathin Frid/Barnabas is smooth, cool and lethal..'Devlin was a idiot gettin' on his bad list. Burke Devlin got his just desserts on DARK SHADOWS - Barnabas show to that. Love it!! Total Classic episode scene.

[2bluerosalind]

I see the have taken the series of complete episodes off of you tube. I thought youtube was the bomb....I guess not.

[CelticRebel100]

Although I don't think Anthony George was completely awful as Burke Devlin, I would have preferred to see the character played by Mitch Ryan, who was so much better in the role. Jonathan Frid comes off as a bit too prim for my taste. I wish he'd played the scene with a tad more menace. The writing is good here, but the performances are weak.

[bgarris1]

Barnabas was as slick as oil. I love it!!!

[MarkyNott]

what a load of shit

[xeno24seven]

still not gay as twilight

[onlyafterdarkness]

I hope Mr. Depp can play the role 1/2 as well as Mr. Fridd

[Makeaneffortfilms]

No, I will not retire, so there. Why don't you go thrust and parry your sword with Barabas and Burk. And, when you are done with that, go compare you similes with each other.

[PETEBUK1]

'Barnabas I wonder about something... I wonder whether we really like each other.'

"Why do you wonder that?"

"By the way we talking to each other...as if we were playing a card game, for very high stakes'

!!!For christ sake! Stop flirting and get to the point!!!! The bartender must be feeling really awkward with all that latent sexual tension. Anyway what kinda bar has tableclothes?
