Paranormal State
Anybody else watching? I'm really liking it, and think it is an awesome show.

1. I've watched a couple of times
but it always seems to me like they attempt to manufacture drama and, honestly, the Christian elements in banishing the Spirits and the burying of the medals of the Saints seems a bit over the top for my taste.

I miss Lisa Williams on Lifetime.

Oh, have you ever watched The Rescue Mediums? I find that show -- although formulaic -- hilarious! Hard to find sometimes, but worth the time if you can catch it.

2. I liked the Rescue Mediums
I get a kick out of how they finish each other's sentences and after each case they go out to meet more spirits - the liquid kind this time tho. The only problem I have with the show is the would-be creepy special effects like simulated ghosts.

I haven't seen Paranormal State. It does not sound like something I would like, not because of the Christian trappings, but I prefer those who try to bring the beings to the light not just send them out of town. I was given a couple of books on Spirit Releasement which I have yet to sit down and read through and are of this school of thought. Skimming through some of the cases in one book the facilitator would often get the spirit to see the light buried deep inside of itself and then it would be willing to clean up as much of the mess it had made as possible before leaving.

5. yea, Lisa Williams is the best
I wonder what happened to her? I'm sure she'll be back - she had a great following. Never head of Rescue Mediums - what station?

3. I've never heard of it. I don't watch much telvision, but I'm always open...
to watching a good show. I'll look around for it. Thanks, TNOE!

4. Although their "investigation" "techniques" are laughably bad,
I find it entertaining.
