Marley's Ghosts

Since there aren't any reviews for this, evidently it didn't register on anyone's radar. The first episode promised more of the same: invisible ghosts popping up all the time so it makes the heroine look crazy. How many different ways can they do this? So rather than slog through the predictable wacky antics, I'll pass.

Sarah Alexander, John Hannah, and.Jo Joyner do an especially good job.

Yeah, it's a "gimmick" show in that only Marley can.see her ghost friends and hilarity ensues, but it's cleverly done and the cast is good. It's only nine episodes. The show didn't last long enough to run out of steam.

If this show had been on a main channel, it would have been a great success.

If you've enjoyed the BBC1 series "Ghosts", the premise isn't wholly different. A woman who can see the ghosts around her, the difference is that the two main ghosts in her life are her recently departed husband and her lover.

The first episode drags a little. But once the whole premise is set, it picks up pace with humorous situations and a stellar cast. It's just a pity it was on GOLD and so no one ever saw it,
