Ghost Whisperer: Fourth Season - Region 1 DVD

Season four of Ghost Whisperer, which runs to 23 episodes, finds Melinda facing many tumultuous problems of her own, as she finds her own life turned upside down. While she addresses that, she also has to help out a ghost who’s struggling to cross over, a teenager with vampire desires and a ghost causing havoc at a nursery.

The episodes stand alone here well, and even at its weakest, Ghost Whisperer does offer a solid episode of entertainment. But it’s regularly more than that, and even though this isn’t the strongest season of the show, there’s little doubt that you get your money’s worth here. Furthermore, Love Hewitt is excellent in the title role, and she helps paper over some of the narrative cracks. It’s still a fun show, and a warmly recommended thriller. --Jon Foster
