I can't believe this crap got ANOTHER season.


I saw that the new season of Paranormal State was on last night so I decided to give it a watch and see if anything has changed with the show and of course nothing has. Ryan is still arrogant and self-centered as ever and the show captures absolutely zero evidence. No Orbs, No EVPS, No Thermal imaging, no ANYTHING.

This just isn't the worst paranormal show on TV, it's the worst show on TV period. Ghost Hunters and Ghost Adventures blow this show out of the water in ever way imaginable.

P.S. Ryan, that little patch of hair you have under your bottom lip is the douchiest thing on TV!!

Have you noticed the other shows have an entirely different focus. Their whole premise is to capture evidence that ghosts exist. Ryan and his team believe ghosts exist and their premise is to help people who are troubled by it. Entirely different focus. If you really think this is the worst show on television i think you may not be smart enough to understand the premise of Paranormal State.

First of all, I'm a smart individual and I believe that this is one of the worst shows on television. Ryan Buell (or Ryan Bull,) as I call him, is in no way a, "paranormal expert." He walks around like he's leading the chess club into battle and to be quite honest most of the shows are incredibly boring. If he truly believes that he is "helping people," by somehow "cleansing their homes," in a wacky way, he needs professional help himself.

Maybe you should ask the people he is so called helping? If they feel better after some kind of help who the fack are you to judge. I didn't say it was good i was pointing out the difference in the types of show. Maybe you're not smart enough to understand that. All these shows are fake anyway so comparing it to Ghost Hunters is retarded. I can think of 20 shows on TV that are million times worse. That includes anything with the Kardashians which is *beep* you watch.

Totally right. I mean, Jersey Shore, anyone? I like this show because they do seem to really care about the people they are helping. That's the point. And who can actually PROVE that ghosts exist, anyway?

i used to like this show in the first season(when i had cable) but after alway's saying we only investigate the most serious and worst cases(something like that, it's been awhile since i saw it last) and then nothing happens,if they're trying to prove ghosts exist they're doing a lousy job at it. And if someone doesnt like the show it's their opinion there's no need to get rude and act like a jerk!-to each their own you dont like someone's opinion suck it up!!!

Of course they're going to pretend they care about the people they're helping... if they didn't, no one would call them and alas, no series on TV.

It's all an act. Every one of these shows, and monster quest. People chasing what doesn't exist and claiming to be experts.

I am not surprised it got picked up for another season, shows about ghosts are big right now. plus the show has its appeal, i watch it because every single episode i get the same reaction. I watch the painfully bad acting, squint like i am about to get a headache, shake my head thinking "wow this is pathetically bad", then i laugh at myself for watching it, finally i continue to watch wondering how it could concievably get worse. Its sort of like watching an ed wood movie without the unintentional humor. All the dead pan acting, tention buildups that end in nothing and paranormal activity that oddly never happens on camera... It is my guilty pleasure.

Honestly there is nothing I can say that will change your view. You live in a world that takes everything for face value, you from what I can tell take most things for face value, if you can't see it, its not real.

This show is not fake, these people are not actors they are paranormal researchers and they genuinely try to help people. The fact is, myself having experienced things from the spiritual realm is that people that don't look past what they can see will never truly understand or feel the spiritual realm. The show points out plenty of things, sure you can't actually feel what they are feeling, you can't hear what they heard, you can't feel what they felt when they are touched by visibly nothing.

Either way I feel this show proves what it is supposed too and then shows that the group is good at resolving the situation for the people affected.

But you are all entitled to your own opinion, I fought for it, so please believe what you want, but try to think about things from outside the box, there is more to life then what you can see.
