 Ghost Hunters Live
All right, I've never watched this show before, because I'm not a believer in ghosts. But I checked out this past Wednesday's episode because Colin Ferguson from Eureka was along for the ride and there's something funny about Celebrity Ghost Hunting. So now I'm here Halloween night and figured I'd check this out because they have Amanda Tapping, ECW star The Miz and Steve Valentine from that new Sci-Fi game show are all along for the investigation.
It's an hour into the show and the mics aren't working, cameras keep cutting out, Amanda looks really uncomfortable, The Miz is trying to remain in character, and Steve's jokes are bombing. I can only imagine how the other 6+ hours of this thing are going to pan out.
*EDIT*
Okay, I'm watching the last hour or two after tuning out. Is this what they do? Just talk to empty rooms hoping for a noise or something?

I never watch Ghost Hunters Live for this very reason. Ghost hunting is long boring work and rarely ever comes up with anything substantial. At least on the series, a 6 hour investigation is whittled down to 30 minutes.

Probably, I've never really watched it from start to finish and I've only seen maybe one or two episodes. I do know despite being revealed as a fraud their psychic wound up doing a few shows of his own afterwards, including a visit to the tomb of King Tut!

If you are talking about Most Haunted, we get that show over here and it's fucking rancid. The one with the fat blond chick, right?

 Ghost Hunters
T.A.P.S. I think they are a bad joke. They sell this show to a t.v. network for money. They sell memberships for money. Then they tell you that if you are a "member" you cann't ask for a donation if you do an investigation. Are you going to tell me that when they got this t.v. series they did not ask for money. How about when they let you "join" their group and be a "family member". You are charged a membership fee. Isn't this asking for money? I think they are in it for the money. If you watch their show it is 28 minutes of them walking around and if you are lucky the last 2 minutes they might show something. Boring. I've got better things to do with my 30 minutes. Like come to this web site.  jg.
