Ghost Whisperer

This was another great episode of Ghost Whisperer. I really enjoyed seeing Abigail Spencer as Cindy Brown. I was glad that the writers are dealing more with Ned and Delia. I think Melinda is a good role model for Ned. Melinda does need to confide in Delia about her gift because if she does not I think it will affect their relationship. Jim as always is so supportive of Melinda and that makes this show so great. I was shocked at the way Professor Payne's wife treated Melinda but I figured something would have to come up with the Professor/Melinda relationship. I think Professor Payne may have feelings for Melinda but I do not think they should ever get together.

We actually get to see a full flegded skeleton spirit. Though that one looks so like a cartoon but it was really cool cause I thought it was like the angel of death or the devil of death by its cloths. And we got to see an episode where cars are racing. That it really cool cause I love NASCAR. its really cool. And on this show Jim and Ned are my favourite characters so we got to see alot of Ned in this episode and that stupid number kept poping up...190206 or something. it was all over the place. but anyway i really did like this episode and cant wait for the next one!!!

Ned needs a good role model as he is dealing

With some friends that really seem on the wrong side

Of the tracks and that Melinda would be great choice as

Her car breaks down and a ghost in the form of a skeleton

Needs her help. Meanwhile the Professor really likes Melinda

But not his wife and neither I like the wife. But in all, a good show.

this is a very good episode. it starts out when melinda is in the car driving home and she is on the phone with jim. she tells him that she is 14 miles til she makes it back home. then all the sudden she sees another sign with a 6 digit number and it freaks her out. next she hangs up and her car starts to stop. when she stops she sees a car approaching, and locks the door and gets out a knife. the car comes right next to her and flashes a flashlight into melindas window. the car pulls up and somebody gets out and melinda is very scared. she then rolls down her window and it is just a woman asking if she needs help. the woman looks under the hood and fixes the problem and gives Melinda directions back to get to Grandview. Melinda sees a ghost infront of her jeep that really scares her. He tells her that somebody is going to die. He also says "The Midnight Circle." So now Melinda has some clues to work with for this spirit. Melinda wants to go back to that area, but this time takes Jim with her. On the way, Melinda see's the girl that helped her get her car running again. They stop their and the woman looks at her car and just says that it was overheated. She asked her if she knows the digits that she saw or if she knew what the midnight circle was. The woman told Melinda that she didnt know what any of it was.

I thought this was an exciting episode. I really like the ghost in this episode, it was interesting to see a ghost that started out looking like a skeleton, it was origional. I also like all of the Melinda and Jim things in this episode, and what Jim said about the store room was pretty funny. I also like how they had a bunch of Ned scenes, we don't see enough of him. I though Ned was good in this episode, it added a certain something that the show has been missing. And Cindy was a pretty good liar, Ned not so much. I give it two thumbs up!

In this episode, Melinda runs into Kate Payne as she is going to see Professor Rick Payne. Kate shows initial surprise and then talks to Melinda. Melinda seems a bit confused at first, but then carries on her side of the brief conversation. she does not mention it to Professor Payne and he does not mention his wife seeming to have just visited him.

In an earlier episode, 'Cats Claw' Kate Payne is seen looking through an upstairs window at Melinda and Rick in a car. There is a note on the fridge saying that she has gone out and will be back soon.

These are fairly normal events which seem to be leading the viewer to believe that Kate and Rick are together, but there is an undercurrent of tension.

I believe that in fact Kate Payne is dead. Rick's tone of voice when he says 'Honey I'm Home' in Cat's Claw is ironic which we are meant to believe is on the word 'Honey'. I think his wife died while she went out so he has left the note on the refrigerator door and announces he's home as a dark joke to himself. When he gets drunk in Cat's Claw instead of talking to his wife he comes and sees Melinda.

He also acts like a single man and speaks of actions he has done or will do that are only suitable for a single man (such as 'promising sexual favours to a rather unattractive woman').

Melinda's conversation with Kate in this episode can be interpreted as a conversation between a jealous wife and a suspected mistress. However it also seems to me that Kate knows she is dead and is initially surprised that Melinda can see her, but then carries on a conversation with Melinda. Kate appears to be a sarcastic personality which I think would match Rick quite well provided they were in love. I am not sure if Melinda realises that Kate is dead. She seemed to act as if she was aware that Kate was dead, but her conversation was normal. This is not the first time Melinda has talked to a ghost in a manner that makes the audience think the ghost is still alive, in 'Hope and Mercy' Melinda talks to a doctors wife as if she is living, but we find near the end of the episode that she died months ago.

Watching this series avidly and trying to determine more on Kate Payne's character and subplot.

When Melinda's car breaks down on an isolated road, she spots a scary-looking, skeletal ghost when a woman stops to help her. She is given a cryptic message to decipher and is led to an underground illegal street racing gang, which includes the woman who stopped to help her - Cindy Brown.



Melinda eventually learns that the skeleton ghost is Cindy's dead boyfriend, Gordon, who is planning on killing Cindy because he thinks she killed him by messing with his car before a race. Gordon soon realizes - thanks to hanging around Melinda when she questions people - that he died because his opponent knew that Gordon was going to try to run him off the road with his signature move and slowed down to prevent it, sending Gordon into a tailspin. Melinda helps Gordon deliver a message to Cindy and he crosses over.



Overall this was a good episode, although it was certainly nothing special or out of the ordinary. Melinda does, however, see the ghost of Professor Payne's dead wife when she goes to see him. I'm interested to see where that will lead...

I was so pleased to see an episode that did not have some "smushy" bits in it this week. In fact it was quite exciting and had all the thrills of a chiller. How can Melinda watch the skeleton ghost without feeling any fear? What a woman! Ned is a good kid getting led astray by people doing this obviously illegal racing. Melinda helps the skeleton to find out why he died as always. It showed a mixed up spirit who was haunting for all the wrong reasons.



Nice to see Jim taking an active part in protecting his wife while she still continually goes out at night, on her own, on deserted roads, to places she has no idea about, and being 5ft nothing, is possibly one of the bravest characters I have ever watched on a TV programme.



Waiting with interest to see what happens with the professor. We see Melinda go to see him and pass his wife in the corridor. Did Melinda know about his wife? The Prof in quite a bad mood. For such a cute character, this was unusual. Someone has ruffled his charm a bit...

We get to see a lot of Ned in this show. Ned is the son of Delia who is coping with his father's death and being a teenager as well. He wants to be cool. He starts hanging out with a crowd called the Midnight Circle that drag races. When Melinda's Jeep breaks down a woman helps her. Melinda meets a ghost that doesn't reveal his identity. After snooping through the woman's car shop Melinda spies a photo of a dead man and realizes this is her ghost. The ghost says he is out to kill his girlfriend - the woman who helped Melinda - because she killed him. Ned finally introduces Melinda to a pizza driver who fills her in on some information on what happened the night of the deadly race. The ghost realizes with Melinda's help that he caused his own death yet he loosened the steering column of the girlfriend so she would crash. He finally helps her so she lives. Melinda crosses him over after he patches things up with his girlfriend. A good show.

Thi s was just another exciting instalment of Ghost Whisperer, and this was quite a unique and memorable episoed, in my opinion. The storyline was very well written and it was quite interesting.



I think the first few scenes of the episode were done remarkably well, and that number, 190206 certainly seemed freaky! The scenes of Melinda driving around in 'circles' was expertly done, and I highly enjoyed the introductory scenes.



The episode carried one quite well from there, and I enjoyed seeing a little more of Ned, even though he is quite annoying at times.



I would recommend this episode quite highly, and I think it is quite well written. Not as good as the previous one, though.
