In Sickness

Ohh man I don’t know what happened there, but last Thursday I was writing a blog and **wham** (Batman – TV series styleee) I was hit with a sudden bout of something, not sure if it was a cold or what, but I felt rough.

Still a little off now, but mainly only the cough left.

So if anyone is reading this and wondering where I’ve been, then don’t worry I’m not dead not at least yet………………………

On the plus side I got to spend some quality time with Jennifer Love Hewitt, I mean watching Ghost Whisperer thanks Virgin Media who have the whole of series one on the ‘On Demand’ service, so yes I watched 22 episodes of Ghost Whisperer. If you like me and you enjoyed watching the show when it was on TV, i.e. not back to back then I would avoid doing as I did it kinda ruined it a little for me in all honesty, watching them back to back made me realise just about every single story was the same but different, here’s the plot

- Ghost contacts Melinda or haunts a close friend or family member

- Only her Husband and close friend believe her

- The family of the ghost or the one whom the ghost is wishing to contact, denies the existing of ‘the afterlife’.

- A small amount of information is given and then they believe in life after death

- Ghost passes over and we all go skipping off happily ever after into the distance.

Maybe the endings don’t include the skipping but I’m sure you get the gist, it’s the same thing over and over and over and guess what….. yep you got it over and over and over again, when watching them you may also notice some errors in the story lines between one episode and another.

Despite all that though I still find myself compelled to watch one after another, like I was feeding a drug addiction or something, I couldn’t stop and I suppose others feel the same I know the show has a fairly big following maybe it gives inspiration to people I don’t know, I do know some people believe the show to be factual though, I wonder if they are also Derek Acorah loyalists too? ;-)

Well Series two of Ghost Whisperer started recently on ‘Crap TV’ also known as ‘Living TV’, I try to avoid that channel as a rule to escape the cringing performances on some of the paranormal shows they air, but exceptions may have to be made for the ‘Ghost Whisperer’. lol
