I do find myself catching Paranormal State every Mon. or Tues., and I just find myself rolling my eyes.
I’m very open to strange phenomena (have read and enjoyed Shirley MacLaine’s books) but I haven’t seen anything on the show that has convinced me yet.
Example - recently, there was an episode where Ryan B. and gang investigate a haunted house. They went out in the surrounding woods for ‘dead time’ at night and their camera caught a quick running movement behind the bushes. Ryan and fellow investigator Sergey express shock and amazement, and continue to after viewing the film. I’m sorry, but guys, it was SOOOO obviously a deer! You can see it’s big rump.
At first, I thought the show would take a scientific skeptical approach, but it’s turning into Ryan B. as Father Merrin Jr. complete with holy water and casting out of demons.
And I really wonder about the so-called psychics they bring in.
I’m
not discounting the experiences of the people on the show at all, but the way it’s presented, I’m not convinced so far. So much of it is hyped. Well, it is a tv show and it’s about entertainment and ratings after all. They have to deliver on the goods.
