If The Dress Doesn't Fit, You Must Acquit

Season 3, Ep. 12

(Recorded May 25, 2025) Up this week is episode eleven (ep 12 for the purposes of the tile) of the 90’s tv show, Dark Shadows, which we're dubbing, “If The Dress Doesn’t Fit, You Must Acquit.” It’s the trial of the century (the 18th century) and Victoria is finally having her day in court. Peter is representing her as she stands accused of being a witch. A totally normal thing back then because America has alway been weird. This trial has everything: wigs, tiny little straw dolls, men in pilgrim costumes, and scorned lover back from the dead. And while all of this is going on, the rest of the gang works to get Josette safely through her fifth night in Collinwood. Unfortunately, since she let Barnabas go to town on her neck, she’s under his spell. He beckons her to be by his side for all eternity, but will she be a runaway bride? Plus, Meaghan has a bone to pick with George; George meets a real live Barnabas; and we throw in as much O.J. content as we can. (Original network airdate March 11, 1991)
