Why are some of the later Dark Shadows episodes in black and white?

When Dark Shadows went on the air in 1966 it was Black & White. However, starting with episode #295 the program was videotaped in color. Now at this point you may be saying, "That's not true. I've seen later episodes and they're in Black and White!" What happened is that in addition to taping the series, kineoscope films were also made in black & white. Kineoscopes are films made by pointing the camera at a television screen. They did that because many of the affiliate stations didn't have videotape players as they were still very expensive. They could still broadcast the shows though using the kineoscopes. Well, many of the color videotapes are missing but the black & white films have survived. ABC stopped making the films in 1970 and one episode of the last season's run is totally missing.

How many Bonanza episodes were black and white?
So I looked into this question and found out that all episodes of Bonanza were filmed in color except for one. The episode where a trio of escaped African American slaves found themselves on the Ponderosa in their search for freedom. they were of course welcomed with open arms and a cup of Bens bottomless pot of coffee. they origianly filmed the episode in color but upon review they realized that the African Americans skin didnt look right in color so they filmed it in black and white. Color television was in its infancy so they were still trying to figure out how to film with it correctly. That was actually one of my favorite episodes. Because of that episode I thought that all the early episodes were filmed in black and white but had later digitly remastered them and added color like they have done to some of the old black and white movies. I think it would be funny if they started selling black and white telivisions to watch the black and white episodes that they are showing now. Stranger things have happened.
