Dead Famous

As some have already noted. this show can't even do a decent bio on the "ghosts" they try to conjure up (usually in places where the ghost has never been or was only present once!) Well, at least they looked for Lucille Ball at the sound stage where she worked on the first Lucy show in the 50's.

It's not even good on the unintentional comedy scale as the girl in it is a precious cupcake who jumps at every creak. She reminds me of Bob Hope back in the day. These show won't look good on anyone's resume.

Still, I like watching it because of the location shooting. Its interesting to see Hollywood, The Queen Mary and all the other famous spots they film at. The rest is adolescent nonsense. And yes, I believe in ghosts. I just don't believe any self respecting ghosts come within 9 miles of this show. Smart.

I wanted to like this show, and the hosts are a likable pair, but the show is the same show over and over. Never any real proof of a haunting anywhere they go. Just some photo's of orbs (most paranormal researchers don't consider orbs paranormal) and Chris contorting and making weird noises, sorry Chris but I can do the same thing if I wanted to. Also the choice of locations leave a lot to be desired. If you want to catch a ghost's spirit you should go to actual places they lived, not a restaurant they went to at some point in their lives....

I like Gail Porter, she is cute and perky, even after losing her hair I think she is awesome, but they show just doesn't deliver the goods. However, it can be entertaining as long as you know you aren't going to see a haunting.

Gayle's attitude of skeptic is valid. Chris abilities as sensitive are valid. She says she doesn't believe but in every investigation she cannot be left alone anywhere. She gets angry if he doesn't run to her every scream. Also, he allows her to remain a skeptic. She gets aggressive with Chris on the supernatural possibilities that are presented to her. At times, she discredits his abilities. Even though she has been touched on many occasions and runs out of any dark room.

UI have always thought that thi series was really very well put togather. I think Chris Flemming is very natural and Gail gives constructive critisism (as well as the odd scream!)

They work very well as a team and have that spark that really lights up the 3 series. I know that the places they visit have sometimes very vague connections with the dead celebrity, but that just adds to the interest. The background music is incredible, and also adds that certain something, that always keeps the audience interested.

Its so nice to see Chris again on UK TV, and we have Zak to thank! Would love to see those two in their own show.

If anyone has series 3 of Dead Famous, I would love to see them again, as it has only been shown once

I found and find Dead famous to be a top show. It's very different from the usual paranormal shows you see where everyone screams at the slightest sound. Gail's sceptical attitude mixed with Chris' ability and outlook certainly make compelling viewing through their disagreement or even if Gail thinks something is amiss - its good to see.

I'm glad this show hasn't followed the similar routes in which other shows follow just to keep gullible viewers watching. Recently an episode was displayed where not a great deal happened and other than one comical moment that was it - Most shows would of just faked something. But not dead famous. This is why I feel it is refreshing to see.

Chris is seriously enthusiastic about his paranormal research rather than in it for the bucks and Gail is quite a brave young lady for taking on what she does. Also having a "target spirit" is quite intriguing, Chances of finding that spirit may be very slim but it certainly makes i more interesting than just hitting a location and hoping to find SOMEONE, and that be the end of it.

I'm afraid I have no idea why anybody would have a negative view of this show - It's very appealing on many many different views. With brief history of locations, history and talks about the celebrity who is being researched and of course the paranormal aspect of the show. Not to mention the lovely view for both the men and the ladies ;)
