If you've wondered what happened to Dark Shadows star Roger Davis, he hasn't disappeared at all. He's merely hidden his body while his voice does all the work. His voice is one that sounds like it might be Henry Fonda, and you hear it at least five times a day. Once a week he narrates the opening and closing of Alias Smith and Jones. Well, as the say...speak and you shall reap!
