Remember the Lost Soul Pt 2

Second book of the series in the bag, and I don’t really know what to think. Honestly, the title of this book tells you all you need to know about the story line it’s going to take. The Return is about the return of our protagonist to the world of the living. For whatever reason, this didn’t really feel like a portion of the main story, but more along the lines of an OVA, something the that bridges to stories together. To be honest, not a lot happened. There was a lot of talking and not a lot of doing. At the current moment, without having seen anything about the last book, I’m not sure this book is necessary to read. It was convoluted with no real focus. There was a religious aspect that was used in a way that I felt was problematic it a way that I cannot exactly describe. You would have to read it to understand honestly. For now, you can go without reading this book, if it is necessary to understand the last book in the trilogy, I’ll let you know.

How Does It Hold Up: Ghost Whisperer

A show that I remember watching with my mom all the time when it was on was Ghost Whisperer, so when I saw it on Hulu, I had to soak up the nostalgia. You can pretty much tell what the show is about from the name. It was a show that started up strong, and then towards the end, you could tell that it had started to dwindle. It was a show where I feel like they felt like they forgot the background plot line along the way. Two major antagonists disappeared off of the face of the Earth and were never mentioned again, even though they were a major part of the show. I also want to say that the last season was the weakest. They introduced a child character that was not written well at all. It was very hard to believe in him as a child character. They tried to make him to focus, but did not spend time developing him. He felt very stagnant and didn’t evolve over time. The first portion of the show was definitely the best. It was cheesy, but a good cheesy. The latter parts felt like they were running out of steam and had no clue what to do. It felt cheesy, but not in a good way. I watched some of the later episodes with Panda (my roommate for those of you who don’t know her), and she was flipping out. She can only tolerate so much cheesy, and she was not willing to suspend her disbelief, and I honestly don’t blame her. I might watch this show again at a later time, but I would personally stop towards the end of the fourth season. After that, I would spend the entire time rolling my eyes at the ridiculousness at some of it.

 

If there are anymore older shows that you would like for me to watch, feel free to tell me in the comments. I’m always looking for something new to watch. I’m a binging maniac.
