Great study of the what lies beyone - with great style!
I like GHI because it is an honest approach at finding the truth: is there life after death? And what, exactly are all these spirits? Why do they stay in certain places? Why are some of them malevolent, and some almost "friendly." I also like the characters. They are dedicated to finding the truth and very human, which really comes across. The only thing I don't like about GHI is why some of the the team members mysteriously disappear from the episodes, with no explanation. Production staff: if you are going to take us behind the scenes and give us a true reality-based approach to what is really going before-during-and after production, which is a big part of the draw, I think; then why not share with us what is really going on: what are the team members thinking? And how do they feel about their work and each other? Robb comes to mind. I liked him. No tatoos or funky hair styles. Just an honest guy that made the show that much more believable to me. But then he just...
No more debunking... Just sensationalist & dishonest rubbish.
Two incidents in this episode really exposed the shoddy nature of these investigations. Both take place during the reveal.
The first was the description by Barry to the clients of an incident in which Susan felt something grabbing at her right leg (first above & then below the back of her knee). In relating the story Barry misleads the clients when he states that the incident occurred "seconds" after they claim to have heard a disembodied, growling noise. However, the noise they heard was deep inside a cave they were exploring. Whereas Susan felt the grabbing at her leg whilst they were walking through the woods back to the plantation thus making the time lapse AT LEAST a matter of minutes, not seconds. Whilst technically (semantically) EVERY event happens a certain number of "seconds" after other events. But when the actual measurement of time is closer to 4 or 5 minutes at the very least it renders Barry's description of "seconds" as both hyperbolic and misleading...
Love this show
I watched the first two seasons of GHI on Netflix so I decided to buy the third season. I haven't watched all of the episodes yet, but so far I have liked most of the episodes I have seen. Of course some are creepier than others, but overall I like how the GHI team interacts with each other and it makes the episodes fun to watch.
