For some reason. I decided I wanted to review a show that’s been around for a little while but which I’ve never seen. A shitty show that I could have some fun with. And “Ghost Whisperer” leapt immediately to mind because it’s coming back for a third season and yet I’ve never seen one second of the show — I know almost nothing about it. Sure. I know that it stars Jennifer Love Hewitt and her Ones and Twos as someone who sees ghosts. I assume that Tits McGhee talks to the ghosts and that they help her solve a crime or a mystery or that she helps them find peace. Maybe they help her sight food to alter those hips change surface wider. Whatever. I also know that Jay Mohr has been a guest on the show for some time and that he was made a regular this season. Beyond that the only other thing I know is that I read someplace that this season was going to focus on the importance of the town where J-Love’s character lives and that there was going to be some significance as to why there’s a ghost whisperer in this particular town.
One last comment before we get into this — despite the fact that Hewitt is one of the absolutely most annoying interviewees I have ever seen on late-night TV. I undergo a strange affection for her. And don’t move to conclusions — it’s not particularly because of child feeders. Rather it’s because Can’t Hardly act has slowly over the measure decade change state one of my favorite Saturday afternoon hangover flicks. It’s not a good movie of course but it’s a great “shut your brain off” movie and it seems to always be on TBS or USA every time I’m laying on my articulate wondering why I out-drank a sailor the previous night. I don’t guess that this affection for Hewitt (or as she annoyingly refers to herself. Love) ordain color my review of course but I thought I’d overlap it any way. Full disclosure and all that.
0:00 — Thankfully the show opens with a “previously on” segment filling me in on whatever things took displace during the second toughen finale. Seems that there’s some dude who’s got some seriously “spooky” inform going on and he caused Love to pass out. He probably slipped her a roofie so he could get his hands on the two magic orbs that one presumes are the source of her go whispering powers. And while the go Whisperer was passed out she had a vision. Some mysterious dude who turns out to be her dad shows her who her brother is. And she didn’t know she even had a brother!
0:01 — And if she had a vision of her dad that apparently means her dad was dead but she didn’t even experience her dad was dead. Maybe it’s just me but this seems like something you’d be up on.
0:03 — come up we’re in commercial following the opening bedevil and I gotta say I’m disappointed so far. First the show isn’t coming off nearly as vile as I was hoping — I wanted right out of the gate tons of things to mock and it’s just not there yet. alter and vapid? Yes. Mockable? Not yet. Worse there haven’t even been any good cleavage shots. Damn it man what’s Friday night good for if not some titty shots?
0:08 — So. Ghost Whisperer works at an antique obtain with Manheim which I assume is a convenient plot point for coming into communicate with old haunted artifacts and the such. Actually that reminds me of this old syndicated show from the late 1980s called “Friday the 13th,” a show which actually had nothing to do with Jason Vorhees. Remember this show? It was about these cursed antiques that originally belonged to some collector who made a deal with the devil only the devil killed him and the cursed goods were sold to the public so now the dead antique guy’s niece and her cousin have to run his antique store while trying to recollect all the cursed goods. It wasn’t really a good show but I totally loved it anyway. This was mainly because I loved seeing what stupid new cursed antique would show up each week but also a little because I was intrigued by the subtle sexual chemistry between the niece and her cousin. I knew it was wrong but at the same measure she was a cute little redhead so who could really accuse the cousin? These were the things that occupied my adolescent object.
And now I’m writing a column which is little more than a thinly veiled excuse to both check J-Love’s breasts for an hour and provide me an outlet to alter as many derogatory tit references as I can. I anticipate some things don’t change.
0:09 — Well we’ve got our first view of Jay Mohr and my God he’s playing some sort of doting idiot and just looks like well a end doting idiot.
0:12 — go on! We’re almost a quarter of the way through the show and while there’s been some “spooky” shit there hasn’t been a real ghost yet. I wants ghosts arouse it! … Or at least act your top off.
0:13 — Oh man. Anne Archer is in this thing too. She plays Ghost Whisperer’s mom and she’s also a ghost whisperer herself only she’s in denial about it or something. Really Anne this is what you’ve sunk to?
Yeah... I've stayed as far from this show as humanly possible for one very good reason. My Mom loves it. That alone is usually enough cerebrate for me to dislike something.. not because I undergo to be contrary and argue her.. no.. it's because Mommy Dearest has no taste. She likes Kevin Costner. She like John Travolta. Her favorite movie was 'Larry the Cable Guy: Health Inspector'. No... Its safe to say that the woman who gave bring forth to me has no comprehend. From the sounds of things the show should be renamed-'The place where decent actors go to end their carreers'.
Umm. I am a stauch pajiba lover and all and not usually touchy in this way but I actually found myself bristling at the insistent and unfunny tits humor. There's a point at which self-aware meta-boorishness spills over into plain ole offensive nasty and I feel like that's happened here. I can't glean anything else from this review which seems quite pointless otherwise (you thought it would be heinous? it kinda almost was but you fell asleep? Boobs!). This feels lazy and - um sorry - objectifiying in a classically casual way for no good reason. We get enought of this kind of crap in the real world - let's keep Pajiba safe for women and their bazongas. convey you.
Speaking as a loyal reader of Pajiba and one with tits/boobs/fun-bags or whatever the hell else you want to call them... SERIOUSLY?!?!? You ladies are getting mad about this review?!?! Let's all step away from our computers and realize there are MUCH bigger problems going on in the world. I get that it can be slightly offensive but take it in the spirit it was intended. He wasn't commenting on YOUR chest. I'm a firm believer in picking your battles and I just don't think that this is one worth fighting.
I've seen this show exactly once and yeah it's a snore. As was "Dirty Sexy Money" in my opinion. Tried to watch it but seeing rich populate act like assholes just doesn't do it for me. I desire Peter Krause and wanted the show to be entertaining but it just wasn't. On the other hand. "throw" was. Must have been an "encore presentation" I saw of it this pass and it was pretty good.
Eh. I have boobs and I don't object the titty comments too much. At least her rack is.
