Amazon.co.uk Review
An effective supernatural thriller, Ghost Whisperer--here in its fourth season--once more stars Jennifer Love Hewitt as Melinda Gordon. Melinda, as you may know, doesn’t have the easiest of lives, seeing as she’s able to communicate with ghosts. She uses this skill to help them pass over properly, closing off the mysteries and loose ends of their lives. And there are plenty to deal with.
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

I approached this season (series, why the change of description?) with a little trepidation as I was aware of the plotline about Jim. Not sure how it would be handled, and who the mysterious Sam character would be, I was nervous that the show was going to head in a direction I wouldn't want to go. I needn't have worried as this season was superb and I await the fifth with bated breath.
Okay the hauntings in this series/season were more secondary to each episode than the resolution of the Melinda and Jim/Sam story but the episodes were no less emotive and well crafted. JLH was as gorgeously sexy as before even if her outfit range seemed to be slightly more conservative than the previous seasons. Her understanding of her character and her on screen chemistry with David Conrad really sets the benchmark which makes this so watchable for me. Supporting cast all add to the mix and the whole is a delicious banquet of joy/pain, laughter/tears.
Not sure if the fire on the set had anything to do with the constantly wet town square pavements and roads, possibly it did, but the clever camera work really made it hard to tell that the set had suffered major damage since the previous filming.
Every episode was a very high standard and not one disappointed me. Can only recommend this if you like the idea of the show and admire the lovely Jennifer Love Hewitt.

As with one other reviewer, I also think a lot of the reviews done for this series have been done so with rose tinted glasses by die hard Ghost Whisperer fans.
I agree that the storyline concerning Melinda, Jim/Sam (or is it Sam/Jim -errr....I'm confused!!!) is just bizarre and unexplainable. I also was dissapointed to see all previous storylines dropped. The storyline concerning what was developing within (and under) the township had been building up throughout each series but especially in the series preceding this one. Suddenly everything is dropped. In the final episode of series 3, Melinda was nearly done to death (the series end cliffhanger - did she survive?) by the ghosts from under the town was just not developed in series 4 - the story of Jim/Sam-Sam/Jim just took over.
My wife and I watched all episodes in the hope that matters would improve but to no avail. Would I now buy series 5? I don't know but I would have to be convinced that the underlying plot from series 1-3 will continue.
A VERY DISAPPOINTING SERIES (Series 4)

Ha! Got you Sky.
Sky thought they were clever getting us all hooked then moving the series to satellite TV, which on principle I won't have as the TV licence is expensive enough. Read more
