I'm so glad to finally see this moment come, and to top it off with the fact that the baby is Jim's (before he became a ghost) I'm sure I can speak for many of us that this is one of those moments most of us fans have been waiting to come for a long time.

I can tell you, it was definately a tearjerker. But it also is nice to finally see a happiness in the characters since Jim died. I am looking forward to what is to come! Waiting of course throughout the summer for the next season to come is definately going to be a tough one, but most definately sure it will be worth the wait. For those who love this show, I can't speak for everyone of course, but I'm sure alot of them will agree that this definately puts the finishing touches on a great season of a wonderful show.

For those of who haven't seen the show.. all I can say is, now would be a great time to start!

I definately recommend watching this show to anyone, people of any age. It will definately put a tear in your eye.

Great episode, great season, excellent show!

I can't wait to see what comes next!moreless

a very satisfying episode

9.5

By sramv9, May 25, 2010

this was a nice episode both in the ghost of the week angle and the jim/mel angle. strong guest stars, including 'JT' from Young and Restless playing a soap opera actor. haha! I always liked that actor. The arrival of the soap opera to town to film and use the store as a location created a refreshingly upbeat change of pace from the more melancholy storylines of late. Without saying too much, the ghost of the week supported this switch to the upbeat as well. And then, the big news of what happens with Jim and Mel, very happy, very good way to take us out of the difficult months of transition from Jim's death to where we are now to a positive, forward looking stance. good one!moreless

A soap opera comes to town, but the real drama is off the set

7.2

By thefanof, May 25, 2010

Well, it's official: Ghost Whisperer has run out of ideas. They used the ever so cliched filming of a soap opera in town episode, but not only that, they pulled the trigger on a storyline four years in the making at a horrible time.

This episode was fun, it was humorous at times, and it was light-hearted, but the actual ghost story was as lackluster and unoriginal as they come. The ending where Melinda speaks for the ghost to those he affected was as emotionless as I have ever seen on the show.

It looks like the horrible Sam storyline was not the only reason for Ghost Whisperer suffering this season because that's over and the show is still disappointing.moreless

Yep, she's pregnant! Besides that not as great.

7.0

By an9el215, May 08, 2009

Truly, after such a long time Melinda is pregnant! I was so happy and so much more happy that it was Jim's not Sam's. Might be hard to explain in the future but the kid will have his mom's abilities, right? I was actually disappointed in this episode. I thought the story overall wasn't as exciting, but I did love Johnny Pacar. I always enjoy seeing him in what he does and only hope to see him rise more. I guess my biggest disappointment in the episode lies in the ghost story here. I just felt bad for the writer and hated the guy and that other girl. I didn't want to cry nor did I feel scare throughout which is rare for that's what Ghost Whisperers evokes out of me.moreless

ALLUSIONS (2)
ADD ALLUSIONS
- When Cally tells Melinda "People in fiction don't always stay dead"- it's clearly a reference to the Jim/Sam story, where Jim died but then came back as Sam.
  EDIT SHARE
- The reference to a reason for killing off a character because "the actor wanted a change" is most likely a reference to Kellie Martin leaving "ER", whose character had been killed off... and a more recent reference to killing off the perfect character of Jim, only to bring him back to life as a different person.
