My latest interest: Ghost Whisperer.
And it’s entirely my mother’s fault, too. She usually has it on in the background while I’m over there. From the IMDB info on it:
A newlywed with the ability to communicate with the earthbound spirits of the recently deceased overcomes skepticism and doubt to help send their important messages to the living and allow the dead to pass on to the other side.
That’s the basic rundown of how it proceeds. Episodes tend to touch on all kinds of situations–I’m pretty sure the main character’s helped in solving a murder or two. She was watching one yesterday wherein a victim of a kidnapper, now dead of course, pretty much helped the main character to stop that same guy from potentially killing his next victim. All of this while trying to help both dead and living come to terms with the fact they’re no longer among the living. Plots are fairly interesting, and at the very least it’ll be a distraction from my multiple episodes of CSI, SVU, Star Trek, and whatever else.
I think I’ll attempt a conversion of Jessica to watching this show while I’m at it. It’d probably be right up her alley anyway, what with the spiritual crap that gets tossed in there and all that wonderful goodness. And, hey, there’s the added bonus of the snark factor. No show can go wrong with that. So, yes. It’s officially made the pirated list. torrents are free, and free is good. Besides, I have the room. Why not?
