Ghost Whisperer...

is SOOOO good!!!!

im very impressed with the scriptwriters and jennifer love hewitt. she played her character so well that i really believe she is melinda gordon. her acting skills are wonderful.

for starters, melinda (played by jennifer love) owns an antique store and her gift is that she can see earth-bound spirits. these spirits, often confused and dun remember who they were or what happened to them, go to melinda for help. but most of the time, they dont talk nicely to melinda, they often show up looking scary and eerie, and they'll do things like appear outta the mirror with bloody hands n all... supposedly to drop melinda some hints or sth. and what melinda does is to help them with unresolved issues, so that the spirits can get peace and 'cross over into the light'.

that's some background info... this certain episode in season 3 really blew my mind. ok, it begins with melinda n her hubby jim enjoying an outdoor movie thing when a drunk guy passes out in front of them. jim's a paramedic so he went to help him. and melinda sees a lady standing by (a spirit obviously). this lady tells melinda that "he should know", and den asked her to give that drunk guy a stalk of orange flower. ok, at this moment, i tot it be some romantic guy who gets wasted bcos he just lost his wife or sth. BUT when that guy saw that flower, he was shocked. den it was revealed that this lady had been stalking him! *woah*. n it seems like she's stalking him too even when she's dead. *double woah!*

melinda felt sorry for that guy shane, bcos the ghost seemed pretty much psychotic... she went to that gal's apartment, hoping to find her and help her cross over. AND THATS where she finds a letter, stating the girl colleen, had filed for restraining orders against that guy!! shane is the real stalker!! *triple woah*. and den we start to see this guy stalking melinda. the police couldn't do anythin bcos he is a lawyer and he knows his way around the law. anyway, he's labelled a "predator" or sth in the category of stalkers (wow, there are different categories of stalkers!). he isolates his victim, so that there is no one else but him, who's by the victim's side. he does this by manipulation, causing mental harm to the victim's friends n families etc..

anyway colleen is haunting shane bcos she said "he should know how i felt", and she's like stalking him lah. but shane is like so nonchalent, sensing her ghost is around, he sneers at her. he's so creepy!! with all the fabricated stories and his fantasies. i tink he has 妄想症 or sth, super delusional. melinda decides that enough is enough, and she gets colleen to help her in bringing that guy down. bcos the ghost can see watever the guy's doin, melinda is able to get computer passwords n evidence and she spreads this around his office (so that he'll have no one left to be there for him) and finally the police are able to press charges. YAY!

but here's the fantastic part. while i tot everything's done n over, we see melinda goin to the basement of her antique shop to fix the lights (every haunting in hollywood movies has sth to do with basements eh? LOL), and then the guy is sitting there, like waiting for her! just this instant, her phone rings. the following conversation gave me goosebumps.

shane: miss me?
melinda to shane: this is my husband calling
shane: like i care
jim on the phone: melinda, your're not gonna believe this but....
melinda: shane's dead right?
jim: yeah, pills booze... we just got the call. wait, how did u know?
melinda: because he's right here.

OOOOoohhhh i love the expression on jennifer love's face. she delivered the line so well, "because he's right here?" its like *4x woah!!*

and den shane gets up and says "this worked out the best, dont u think? now we can be together. forever."

OOoohhhh goosebumps!! man i LOVE ghost whisperer!!!
