I went ahead and watched it earlier and I really enjoyed it. I kinda got my hopes up when they thought they caught something but then I figured it out when they started talking about the rain. I also figured the rain would have lasted longer then the minute that they were discussing. Still it was a good show and it's one that I will keep on my DVR for a while.

I have yet to watch the Bigfoot episode, but I was really impressed with this show. It was nice to see a show that coming from different angles. I'll certainly have this one on the DVR. I'm just a person with an interest in the Paranormal. I really love this site, it gives me a chance to learn a great deal from you all. Back to the show, there were several points of interest, but the part concerning "Ghost Particles" as to how a ghost may pass through walls etc. was very interesting. I'm going to watch this episode again since I was busy doing something else at the same time. Did I hear it correct that if a ghost has a makeup of "ghost particles" and could pass through walls then they would not be able to be seen or detected with current technology?

That's what they were saying. If a ghost is made of neutrinos (or however it's spelled) then they would be invisible to the naked eye and to current ghost hunting equipment.

I want to watch this epi again, about the ghosts being invisible to the naked eye. This is one of the few shows, I like anymore. Great format. Looking at the show schedule, just see the same two epi's running.

Hope it gets picked up as a series, it was filling my expectations on what a paranormal show should be.

I think, I'm out of the what's that, did ya hear that, even as far as entertainment goes. It's the same in so many shows, and has become not even entertaining.

Looking forward to DT.

Well I caught Episode 3 of 3. Strange only 3 shows? UFO's over Phoenix. All I can say was boring. If they had Bill Birnes and Pat Uskert or Ted Acworth you would've thought you were watching a repeat of UFO Hunters about the Phoenix Lights. I just don't get it. What's next another show about Roswell, maybe they could check the desert for clues, its only been about 67 years. There are hundreds of reports of strange events and places all throughout this country and a lot of the shows just want to investigates the same events over and over only adding a new little twist each time. I enjoy this kind of programming and I think it gets redundant, I imagine how a person with borderline interest would be bored to tears. /sad.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':blink:' />

"They insisted that the victim animals simply had died of dog bites from dogs or other animals. They suggested that disease might have been responsible for one animal's death. They denied that the victims had been exsanguinated, as many witnesses had claimed, and even suggested that the puncture wounds reported might be from barbed wire. Callers reminded them that some wounds were deep enough to reach into the victims' lungs, that the flesh was not torn as in dog bites, that signs of struggles were inexplicably missing, and that corpses did not decay normally, but their arguments were brushed aside. Also brushed aside were callers' attempts to bring extraterrestrials into the conversation.

When the recording ended. I rewound it and played it again and again. I still could not believe what I was hearing. The callers had the skeptics pinned against the ropes from the very first call." - Scott Corrales

My understanding is that NatGeo ordered a few shows to test the market before a full series. I've seen anywhere between 3 and 6 shows proposed so we'll see if any more show up.

Obviously they're trying to take a different approach to distinguish the show from all the other paranormal programs out there. Examining one aspect of a topic is not a bad idea at all. I think the issue with the Phoenix Lights episode is that there just isn't that much to analyze when you're only looking at one short piece of film and a couple of eye witness reports. I've talked with people in Phoenix from that incident and there was a lot more going on then mentioned on the show. I guess that NatGeo is trying to keep it "scientific" as much as possible.

I'd like to see some more episodes in this series so I hope they decide to keep it around for a while.

I too hope that this series catches on. Seems to be light years ahead of most paranormal programming.

This show sounds really interesting, not like all the garbage out there recently. Sorry, don't mean to insult anyone. /unsure.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=';)' /> I'll definitely have to check it out.

You're not insulting anyone. Most of us agree that the majority of the shows out there leave something to be desired.

Don't worry 'bout it lt…as Ryan correctly points out, there quite a few people here (myself included) who've become a little bored w/all the overkill and sell out that seems to be happening in the field. I'm not sure who said it, but a member here had commented that maybe once the "fad" aspect of the field dies down (no pun intended) then some serious progress can be made going forward. Folks (like TAPS) carried the torch for a bit, but seem to have lost their way, but perhaps the positive strides they made can be furthered by those unencumbered by sponsors and production houses.

This is kind of weird but I do surveys on my computer at home for extra money & I just did one on a new paranormal show for Syfy. It's about a woman named Mary, she's Italian, I think & has a radio

show (local) & the show is about her & her family. It really didn't look good, she seemed fake to me anyway. They showed me part of the show & asked my opinions of several different things.

She's psychic & so is her daughter & she does readings on her call-in radio show & for private clients. I don't know if the show will make it to air, they don't tell you in the survey (obviously).

I'll be waiting to see if it airs though.

I did a survey once. I was walking through a local (at the time) mall when asked to participate in a survey/poll about a Disney movie called "Newsies" that was in production. I watched a few scenes and was highly underwhelmed and told them so. I just didn't think that the early 90s was the right time for a bad movie musical that wasn't even animated. The movie eventually came out almost 2 years later and pretty much went straight to video. Perhaps given the change over w/interest in musicals today, it might do better today…but considering what a dead outlet the print media has become, it might still fail.

Well looks like they ran a new show that I was unaware of about these unexplained light phenomenon. I only caught part of it because I was watching Intervention but it was refreshing to see a paranormal show about locations that I was not aware of. I guess I can back off a little bit about the repetition criticism since this has never been on any mainstream paranormal show I am aware of at least. It mostly involved the Brown Mountain lights in North Carolina and an area in either Switzerland or Norway that I didn't catch the name of, probably couldn't spell it if I did. It was interesting enough but brought a lot of questions to mind. Did anyone else see this and what is your opinion?

.

Brown Mountain Lights (not from the show)

"They insisted that the victim animals simply had died of dog bites from dogs or other animals. They suggested that disease might have been responsible for one animal's death. They denied that the victims had been exsanguinated, as many witnesses had claimed, and even suggested that the puncture wounds reported might be from barbed wire. Callers reminded them that some wounds were deep enough to reach into the victims' lungs, that the flesh was not torn as in dog bites, that signs of struggles were inexplicably missing, and that corpses did not decay normally, but their arguments were brushed aside.

I saw it listed last night but didn't watch it. Unexplained lights just doesn't do anything for me. I do wonder about the Marfa lights since they are in Texas but beyond that no clue. Perhaps I should look into it some more.

I agree mysterious lights aren't at the top of my list either but its better than watching someone dissect the Patterson-Gimlin film for the 20th time. /tongue.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':rolleyes:' />
