Ghost Hunters is lame
They never find any ghosts. The show isn't scary. Why is it still on the air?

1. Same reason "reality" shows are still on the air.
Collective stupidity.

"Hey, let's watch this bunch of guys run around an old house and scare each other!" :eyes:

2. I like seeing the historical landmarks

However I will say they seem to know how to use their equipment etter and use more tools then Paranormal State guys. However I feel that since they don't always find anything kinda gives those type of shows some credibility.

3. I like Haunted History more.
Even though I don't believe in ghosts, I like the way they tell their ghost stories. Ghost Hunters seems to be a bunch of folks acting afraid over a house settling.

4. I like it. The interaction between Tango and Steve is a hoot.

8. Anything dealing with ghosts, mediums, ESP, or similar BS is lame.

12. For me when I heard the crew following ghost hunter's caught the voice
That made me start wondering.


They are more professional than some of the other hacks on TV


and that jack tug happened 3 times I think. and I've watched it and there is no way to fake it. It was behind him no one near the jack of his jacket and almost right in the middle.

11. They do find evidence. I'm not a full believer but the show has me
wondering. Not only that I do like the scientific approch. At least they aren't running around saying every spec of dust that comes into camera focus is a "ghost"

It is better than all the other shows I've seen. I would rather that show than most haunted or Paranormal state.

14. It manages to supply cheap eyeballs for the ads.
Never forget what's for sale in this transaction.
