Fan Episode Reviews (10)

Is Jim getting more annoying? Why would he refuse to talk about the elephant in the room and pretend that Aiden isn't gifted? The poor kid will then have to face everything alone, just like he did this episodemoreless

I can't imagine a meaner thing to do to a kid. Weird things are happening, and his father gives him all the verbal and physical hints that its not ok to talk about that stuff with his mom and dad. What an awful father. What does he think? if Jim and Melinda pretend really hard that Aidenis normal, and not "hear" anything he says thats odd, that Aiden will stop seeing scary stuff? he won't. If Jim allowed Melinda to ask the right questions Aiden wouldn't have been in trouble this episode. Which would be less exiting, sure. But always going with the plot that Aiden knows stuff, but Jim won't let him talk about it with him or his mom is getting irritating.moreless

I'll give it a 10 and let me tell you why. First is that from start to finish of this episode the suspense never stopped.

It's my first time to give a review on a TV series and I hope you'll understand if sometimes on this article you'll get lost in my words.

OK for starters I'll apologize to those who haven't seen this episode yet if I may slip some spoilers on this case.

To rate this episode 1 is the lowest and 10 is the highest. I'll give it a 10 and let me tell you why. First is that from start to finish of this episode the suspense never stopped. A few twist and turns in the middle to add a little flavor on it. This episode also gives a lot of moral lesson on how parents should handle their kids at a very delicate stage. Melinda(Jennifer Love Hewitt) as a mother to Aiden portraits a very loving and protective mother to her son. If you do have kids on your own you can feel how Melinda and Jim worry about their son.

Very suspenseful and emotional!

By amazing_race, Feb 26, 2010

This was a highly enjoyable episode of the show, and perhaps my favorite from this season so far. I loved the storyline, and I felt that the episode was thoroughly well-written, which culminated into a very interesting episode.

I do think that the concept of the show is becoming too complicated, especially with the 'Shinies' and 'Shadows', and I think that that is removing a lot fomr the show, but I still find it to be quite interesting, and it was a very good plot.

I would highly recommend this episode, as it is a relatively new concept and this sort of episode realy hasn't been done before. Great episode!moreless
