[on being asked to return to "Dark Shadows" after taking maternity leave] I said I might consider it if Victoria could change her character, if she could get possessed or be bad, because there just wasn't anything to act really. It wasn't a lot of fun. I thought everyone else was having a great time being whatever strange character. Victoria was always the same.... I can understand now that Victoria had to stay the goody-goody because the viewer had to identify with her. She was the outsider like the viewer was. She didn't know what was going on. I think it probably served a purpose in the plot line to have somebody like that.
