Some decent personal drama, but silly ghost stories November 18, 2009 D. J. Nardi (Washington, DC) [note: this is a review of the series, not the DVDs so much]
So, this is what Jessica Love Hewitt is up to these days. I'm not a fan of ghost stories generally and would normally warn those who aren't to shy away from this series. However, if you can get by the ghosts, several of the episodes use the ghost story as a plot device to explore compelling HUMAN stories (somewhat like Hewitt's film If Only). As such, even if you don't like ghosts, read on:
The good:
In the episodes I've seen at least, the story with the ghosts provided a segway into a far more compelling human drama. For example, in one episode I saw, the ghosts torment a father and daughter who feel guilty over the mother's death. The emotionally compelling part of the episode was seeing the father and daughter deal with their guilt and frustration. Hewitt, as the ghost whisperer, indirectly helps these catharses.
Now, the bad:
The ghosts aren't subtle. With a few exceptions (generally shadows in a dark room), the ghosts look and act just like normal people, only that "only" Hewitt can see them. There's no especially pale skin, glow, or anything else to make the ghosts seem anything more than, well, hollywood actors. Unfortunately, this detracts from the show as it makes it harder to take the ghosts seriously.
In short, if you like the type of sitcom/dramas generally shown on the WE channel, you might like Ghost Whisperer. Don't be too turned off by the ghosts in the stories (even if the ghosts can get snarky at times). However, this isn't a sci-fi series or comedy sitcom.

Great Show, Great Deal! June 15, 2009 Jenny O. Ghost Whisperer is one of my favorite shows. Every season gets more and more interesting. Definitely worth watching. I can't wait for season four to come out on DVD and season five to air on television.
As usual, Amazon's shipment was fast. The price is the best around.

I don't know if any one noticed, but you save $5 if you buy these separately.
