[Show, Cast] The producers of CBS’ Ghost Whisperer have been teasing us all season that something big was going to happen that would change the series forever. And then there were the ghostly warnings that death just might rub off in some way on Melinda (Jennifer Love Hewitt) and that she’d better be careful.
[Ratings for Threshold] In the 8 p.m. hour “Ghost Whisperer” gave CBS a robust 7.2/13 [11.67 million], far above its season averages. FOX’s “Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader” and NBC’s “Deal or No Deal” tied for second with a 3.5/6, while ABC was fourth with “Supernanny.” On The CW, “Everybody Hates Chris” and “The Game” averaged 1.2/2 for the hour.
[show] Ghost Whisperer fans of the world – and we know there are gazillions of you out there – unite, for your ship has come in. Anyone who simply can’t get enough of Ghost Whisperer, of Melinda Gordon (Jennifer Love Hewitt), of the Melinda-Jim (David Conrad) relationship, of photogenic Hewitt, will have cause for celebration on Nov. 25, and that’s because Ghost Whisperer Spirit Guide arrives in bookstores that day.
[Show, Cast, Book] After the traumatizing demise of her husband, what’s Melinda going to do now? Life – and death – goes on … Melinda tries her best to get used to the changes brought about by Jim’s death. The dramatic effects of losing her loved one cause Melinda to lose her focus, even if she has decided to help yet another ghost. However, the difficulty she’s having with the troubled teenage specter is no comparison to the pains of losing Jim.
[Show, Cast] Not Jim! Oh, Ghost Whisperer Powers That Be, how could you kill Jim Clancy (David Conrad), one half of television’s most adorable couple?! …Yes, folks, unfortunately, in the Nov. 7 episode of CBS’ Ghost Whisperer, “Imaginary Friends and Enemies,” Jim was accidentally shot while trying to help a troubled man. While it initially looked like Jim was going to be OK, he died–YES, HE DIED–after a complication from surgery.
[Show, Cast] Question: Please answer the following questions about Ghost Whisperer: Is the character Jim really leaving? Any spoilers for the next episode? Is Melinda pregnant? – Rachel M. …Matt Roush: You know I don’t do spoilers, right? I’ve seen the next two episodes following Jim’s death last week, and all I will tell you is that the show is asking you (and the actor David Conrad) to take a giant leap of faith at the end of tonight’s episode…
[Show, Cast] There have been furious screams coming from fans of Ghost Whisperer recently, due to the death of a beloved character from the series. The latest episode of the show left many livid and confused, wondering if the dependable Jim Clancy will no longer appear on the thrilling fantasy-drama.
[Show] Remind us never to cross a Ghost Whisperer viewer, because they will not hesitate to shut us out of their lives and tell all their friends how much we suck. …Yes, Jim had died and Ghost Whisperer fans are livid. …News of the character’s death first leaked in September; the fan response seemed unbelievable then but it was small potatoes to their reactions after seeing the episode.
[Cast] What’s it like hosting a kegger in Melinda Gordon’s house? And how does it feel to have the star of one of your favorite courtroom shows playing your TV mom? In this video from YoungHollywood.com, Ghost Whisperer cast member Christoph Sanders, aka ”Ned Banks,” answers those questions after offering a whirlwind tour of one of the show’s most familiar sets.
[Cast, Show] Even in the first season of “Ghost Whisperer,” Pittsburgh native David Conrad expected his character to be killed off. …“It’s like a hotel. Every five years they have to tear out all the furniture and put new furniture in to sell it,” Conrad said in an October 2005 interview.
[Show] I’ve known Jim’s death was coming since my colleague Michael Ausiello confirmed the news… But I think that spoiler made watching last night’s episode even more painful. …I’m gonna write something I’ve never written before: Well done, Jennifer Love Hewitt.
[Ratings Imaginary Friends and Enemies] Unless otherwise noted, I’m comparing this Friday’s ratings to Oct. 24, since Halloween scared away (snicker) so many viewers: …8 pm/ET: Ghost Whisperer looked Jim-dandy as it topped its previous season high by 11 percent, delivering 11.05 million total viewers.…
[Ratings Imaginary Friends and Enemies] “Ghost Whisperer” put CBS on top at 8 p.m. with a 6.9/12 [11.05 million]. “Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader?,” 4.1/7, came in second for FOX. “Deal or No Deal” earned a 3.6/6 for NBC, beating out “Wife Swap” on ABC. The CW averaged 1.1/2 with “Everybody Hates Chris” and “The Game.”
[Cast] Speculation has run wild for some time that David Conrad’s character on Ghost Whisperer would be checking out. We chatted with him about how that rumor will work itself in Friday’s episode, how it could affect his future on the show and why he watched so much Olympic swimming this summer. …Conrad: I think they’ll see a Jim like they’ve never seen before. I think he’ll find out who his true self is, though it might take a long time.…
[Show, Cast] Jennifer Love Hewitt’s sexy onscreen hubby is going to die. …Yeah, yeah, yeah, we’ve all heard that one before, as this rumor has been circling within the Ghost Whisperer fan world for years now. …But wait…Could it actually really be happening this month? …Sources confirm that there will be a major cast change within the next three episodes (starting tonight), and what goes down will surprise you…
[Show, Cast] In September, word spread that fans will be seeing the last of David Conrad is leaving Ghost Whisperer as his character, Jim will be killed off. TV Guide was quick to talk to series star Jennifer Love Hewitt, who said told them, “The important thing to always remember is that things are not as they seem on our show. We never do anything cut-and-dry. There are lots of opportunities for people to think that one thing is going to happen, and it actually turns out to be something else.”
[Ratings for Bloodline] “Ghost Whisperer” started the evening strong for CBS, averaging a 6.1/12 for the hour. NBC started the evening in second place with “Deal or No Deal” edging out FOX’s game show “ Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader?” ABC went with “ Wife Swap,” 2.5/5, while The CW offered up “ Everybody Hates Chris,” 1.0/2, and “ The Game,” 0.9/2.
[Cast] When I was offered the role of Melinda Gordon in Ghost Whisperer, I read the script by John Gray and fell in love. I fell in love with the concept of the show. And I fell in love with the character. I was truly inspired by her strength as well as her vulnerability. I felt she was a ‘super hero’. Not a ‘super hero’ in the comic book sense, but a ‘super hero’ in a very real sense. Her unquestioned love of others and her undying commitment to helping them in a purely altruistic way makes Melinda someone I can look up to.

[Cast] What prompted Jennifer Love Hewitt to get serious about her workout regime? …No, it was not those infamous bikini pictures – or the nasty blog comments that followed. …“I’m getting ready to turn 30 and get married and all those things,”…“This year was my year to try to glow from within and feel better.”

[DVD] After a pretty intense second season, Ghost Whisperer kicks it up a notch with some new and exciting developments. In season two, the series went beyond its first season to include a bigger focus on the darker aspects. This development included some interesting background information to Melinda’s lineage. In season three, it goes even further. The feel-good approach from season one is (almost) completely replaced with more mysterious, gloomier stories.
[Ratings for Firestarter] At 8pm last Friday, Ghost Whisperer became the most-watched program of the evening. Despite low numbers for other season premieres, the series starring Jennifer Love Hewitt dominated the night’s opening hour. It was easily the top show, and even managed to hold its viewership from last year’s premiere.

[Cast, Show] It’s been quite a year for Jennifer Love Hewitt. Once just the mild-mannered (if gorgeous) star of CBS’ high-rated Ghost Whisperer, the actress was thrust into an unexpected spotlight last winter… TVGuide.com welcomed the chance to speak with Love about, yes, Melinda’s especially tricky travels ahead, but also the message she is adamant to keep spreading, about being comfortable in one’s own skin.

[DVD] …Ghost Whisperer has at times been dismissed in the same way [as Wonder Woman] over its well-endowed star, Jennifer Love Hewitt, a wildly unfair criticism. In the third season, Ghost Whisperer reached its stride as a well-written genre show. The horror elements were increased dramatically over the first two seasons and Melinda Gordon faced some of her most terrifying threats so far.

And another one might happen tonight. Why do they happen on May 11? Because it falls within a sweeps month!
