I was thinking of stopping by their office at the Mill Outlet and seeing if they give free samples away....What do you think?
I think you won't know till you try.

Sorry I don't know...I was thinking of stopping by their office this week to see if they may give me a free sample of their magazine. You think they might have some back issues to give away to get people interested. They had a meet and greet a week ago but I did not know about it. I would have gotten my Ghost Hunters dvd set signed....

It's funny I keep crossing paths/reading about people who crossed paths with Ghost Hunters. My time must be coming. It is a good show that is getting better I think, last week's episode was one of the best I've seen. Hopefully tonights will continue the trend.

I have to disagree, I think the show has gotten worse. Tonight's episode had moments where the two younger crew members were just acting like complete dumbass teenagers. Nothing professional about it whatsoever. It needs retooled abit.

My wife and I noticed that the show has dramatically changed from trying to debunk to trying to prove..problem being, they never prove anything other than their silly "personal experiences".

I'm glad they're coming back to the states, because that Barry guy has been a freaking pansy.

That is another problem, just like lastnight they kept talking about how it just "felt weird" in one of the rooms. That proves nothing. The show truly has lost sight, it was a lot more fun when the crew tried to disprove.

Yea, every time something happened he'd run away.

I disagree with you guys. I don't think last week's episode was their finest, but there's no way to know going into an investigation what you're going to find. Just two weeks ago they recorded some really inexplicable stuff with the infrared camera. I thought the first episode of the season was one of the best I've seen.

Just started watching this series lately. Certainly will make the writers' strike go by a bit quicker (this and "The First 48" on A&E).

I watched some episodes of the marathon today that I hadn't seen before and then caught the new stuff. They seem to be getting away from the annoying team conflict stuff which to me always took away from their investigations. I really didn't care if they were having a problem with a team member, I'd rather know more about what was going on in the investigation.

Yeah, I agree. Wasn't needed, but I wonder if they did that to fill time on some of their more less eventful episodes. The episodes in the maraton were chosen by the viewers so as a relative newbie, it was great to get the highlights of the shows and see some of the more interesting investigations (loved that lighthouse one).

Also watched Ghost Hunters International. OK, I guess but more of the same but without Jason and Grant, it really isn't as good but it's fine as filler until the new season of the original premieres in March.

I think Ghost Hunters: International premiered within the last couple days. Maybe that's the premiere you saw.

I like the show more when they actually find some kind of proof of something. The show where they went to Ireland and filmed some weird heat signatures in that field was pretty cool. I liked the lighthouse one as well.

Yeah, it premiered on Wednesday (1/9). Wasn't bad or anything but the episode itself wasn't all that exciting since, like you, I like it when they find evidence. I mean, in that lighthouse episode seeing that footage of that figure looking down over the railing was creepy...

I dig this show cause of the history background stuff and never miss it. That said I didnt like this GHI cause that little fruit Andy annoys the hell out of me and I despise him, that new lead seems like a wannabe commentator (him doing EVPs and posing in a pic with a ghost?), than that tall chick is too jumpy after all the years of doing it. I hate most of this shows cast

Yeah, I never liked Andy... at all. The rest are OK, but the leader needs to chill out, too over the top.

It was funny that the chicks thought they heard a horse-drawn carriage when in fact it was the other investigators.

That's the problem I have with GHI, it's a very cool idea but a very annoying cast. The new guy seems like he's trying too hard to be a hard ass and Andy will kiss whatever as is available.

Anyone watch the season premiere tonight? Pretty good one and creepy as hell. Hopefully they didn't save the best for first though... Glad they got rid of the opening credits.

Oh, and I love Kris.

I always said if a ghost was able to pull down its pants, Andy would jump to give him a blow job.

Kris is hot. But where did you get the pic? Looks like an actress headshot. Kinda odd for a 'reality' show.

Pretty good episode night. I wonder if the team will go back there again to catch more stuff. That guy's lazy eye was freaky!

Oh yeah, Kris looks hot!
