Ghost Whisperer (2005–2010)
1/10
Nothing that's particularly ghostly
1 October 2008
Ghost Whisperer was a huge disappointment for me. I never expected that something paranormal could be rendered into boringly normal until I had seen few episodes of this show. I tried to watch it but it never changed, and I asked myself "where is all the suspense?", "where is all the mystery?". Logically, one would not expect any horror either.

I believe that there are few people out there who will find this show interesting, but apparently I lack the mentality this product was created for. The gorgeous Jennifer Love Hewitt has at least created a unique series and unique viewpoint: the ghosts are like humans and they need somebody to talk for them and settle all their problems a regular earthling could not do.

I however find this point of view utterly uninteresting. For those who seek more mystery and freaking out moments I recommend a good old British show Sapphire & Steel. I know that Sapphire & Steel lacked expensive special effects but with Ghost Whisperer you get even less than that. Ghost Whisperer is a show about spirit's welfare, it's not a thriller or campy ghost comedy or anything that keeps you awake.
