I’ll openly admit it - as soon as I saw this show coming on back in 2005 on CBS I was all for it. It wasn’t even the show plot necessarily - it was all about Melinda (Jennifer Love Hewitt). I have loved her ever since I first saw Can’t Hardly Wait, which by the way is one of my fave movies ever (in one of those annoying people that knows every single line). Just the same, I did end up watching the first episode and like millions of other people I was absolutely hooked. I don’t know, maybe if it was any other actress I wouldn’t like it as much - but Jennifer just plays the part so darn well. So what exactly is up with this show?

Ghost Whisperer is an episodic series that follows the life of Melinda Gordon, a young woman who has the ability to see and communicate with the dead. Each episode deals with one or more ghosts seeking Melinda’s help in relaying a message or completing a task that will put the spirit to rest, and allow them to “cross over” into The Light, a metaphor presented by the show as its conception of Heaven. Crossing over is when a spirit leaves earth and goes to heaven (however this can’t be confirmed as she herself stated she doesn’t know what is on the other side). There are two places in the hereafter, when the ghosts “cross over”: The Light and the Dark Side as mentioned above. These two places are one of the main points of the show.

The Light -
When Melinda helps ghosts cross over, they see a bright light. The Light is invisible to viewers and shown only a few times such as in episodes The Vanishing, The One, Giving up the Ghost (briefly) and The Gathering. Almost all the spirits Melinda helps in the show cross over into the light.

The Dark Side -
Not all spirits cross over into the Light. Some cross over to the dark side. Spirits who are trapped in this Limbo are exposed to hate and anger. Even So, some ghosts stay on the earth, whether because of an evil force, or incomplete business. Some do not even know they are dead. These spirits can reside above the surface (such as ghosts that haunt people) or in The Underneath (where evil spirits stay).

If you like the ghost type of shows as much as I do (think Ghost Hunters) then you will love this movie. Honestly I would tell you to start watching it from the very beginning. You have to know what’s going on and who everyone is! A lot has happened in the past few seasons so you seriously need to catch up. Don’t watch the next episode or you will ruin it! I love this show. And I really think if you give it a fair chance - you will love it too! Other cast members include; Jim Clancy/Sam (David Conrad), Delia Banks (Camryn Manheim), Ned Banks (Christoph Sanders) and the newly intro’d Eli James (Jamie Kennedy)!

When it comes to the Winter line up TV tends to bring a lot of new shows that really end up being some of our all time favorite shows even though sometimes they are often mixed with some so-called “duds”. Sometimes when it comes to wading through all the “bad” shows to get to the good shows it can become a little difficult but in the end its usually worth it. The thing about TV shows is that not everyone will like the same stuff as you, and you wont like the same stuff as other people. But if your looking for a few TV shows to watch, there is an easier way to go about this to make your life a little bit easier! When it comes to websites, there are a dime a dozen, but sometimes you might just find a little gem that you really will get a lot of use out of.

In order to find these websites your going to have to check out a few sites before you find the right one but once you do your home free! When it comes to the Winter line up there are usually a few different categories your going to be looking at or finding. These include categories such as reality, prime time, new shows, and series shows that either contain new or old shows that we have or haven’t seen. Once you find the website you like you will most likely be able to find some or all of the categories above which then will allow you to view a few shows from each category.

These types of websites are most likely going to be blogs so you can be assured that you will either get a little “sneak peak” of the show or that there will be some sort of a description so you can decide if you will or will not like the show. Plus the videos on these websites are usually from a place that doesn’t have a ton of commercials and ads, or any at all. I hate watching a TV show or a preview online and sites like ABC or CBS tries to fill the video up with a bunch of unneeded ads! I often find these websites quickly help me evaluate if I am going to watch a new show or not.

For instance, a show like How I Met Your Mother just didn’t seem interesting to me at all, but Ghost Whisperer (when it first appeared) sounded like something I would like and I really love Jennifer Love Hewitt over “Doogie Howser” any day of the week. So I gave it a try and voila, I loved it and still watch it even today!

Ghost Whisperer focuses on a young newlywed named Melinda [Jennifer Love Hewitt] who has an intimate ability to communicate with ghosts and spirits. Although she was in a great need to live a usual life without this unusual gift, her life turned in dizzy when spirits reveal some thrilling facts.

The series aims for nothing less than to pluck your heartstrings with queue of dead people line up seeking advice with a witty babe. In each episode of Ghost Whisperer, Melinda tries to deal with these ghosts who need her help in completing a task that will put those spirits to rest, and allow them to leave earth for heaven.

Ghost Whisperer accommodates two leading and stirring characters who put life in the soap.  Jennifer Love Hewitt plays Melinda who has the power to communicate with ghosts and spirits. David Conrad played the character of Melinda’s husband Jim who knows this thrilling fact and helps her as much as he can to leave her out from this mess.

In the series, Jennifer commits a fair judgment with her role with higher emotional quotient and very accurate expressions related to the sequences. Real mysticism of Jennifer’s character is exactly the sort of person that she would need to be in order to speak those heavenly people.
