Well, it looks like yet another paranormal show has been thrown into the mix with Extreme Paranormal airing on A&E tonight. It's another in several new shows to cram the airways with paranormal themes, joining Ghost Lab, Celebrity Ghost Stories, Ghost Hunters Academy to name a few. It's like everyone is joining the bandwagon on the paranormal. Yet another television trend like westerns, then detective shows, the age of comedies II (1970'S), the Night time Soaps, the Family show genre like Family Ties and The Cosby Show, then Reality Game Shows recently, the Million Dollar Night Time Game Show, Criminal Science and now Paranormal joining the likes of Ghost Whisperer, Medium to the Paranormal Docu-Soap Ghost Hunters and the ilk. We shall see if it's yet another "try to fool them for the cash" type show or will we finally ever get a skeptical Ghost Hunting show? We now know that Ghost Hunters wasn't was the type of show it was made up to be. I'm talking a real, for darn sure, skeptical bunch like Scooby and the Gang to go and pull the sheet off of whoever was under it at the Eastern State Penitentiary. Heck, we can see the leg and shoe, why would a ghost be under a sheet anyway? Even a black, silk type? I guess I'm a glutton for punishment, I have the DVR set to record the darn thing. At least it's only set for 2 episodes (for now, but if they get a decent audience, who knows, yet another series?).
For those interested in a synopsis, go to www.a&e.com, look under shows for extreme paranormal. If interesting, I may comment on it tomorrow.
