Paranormal Survivor

I guess I was taken in by the whole "reality" of this show. When everyone on the show has a Canadian accent I started to realize it was all acting. I live in one of the areas portrayed on the show and we don't have accents like the people they have pretending to be haunted by these so called ghosts. If they would just call the show for entertainment purposes only I would enjoy the show so much more. But don't try to pretend this show is for real. This is just insulting to my intelligence. Come on people at least make sure your actors don't all have Canadian accents and pretend to be from New York or Ohio. That's just ridiculous. Your show loses all credibility. Get better actors. I'll still watch it only to laugh at how obviously clown it is.

I don't care a whit for all the ghost hunter shows that bring in a team to try to document something paranormal with their equipment and claims. To this viewer they're trying to sell a fantasy and if you watch objectively they have no proof. That said I don't get the negative reviews here? These are the actual people that experienced various forms of the paranormal. They didn't want to ever be on TV and they certainly didn't want to experience the things they did. So, in the format of this show I do believe these people actually exist and only by the producer's due diligence do we get to hear of these stories. The difference is they're not going in trying to retroactively find something unexplainable, but in this show real people's real experiences are recreated with the actual participants recollections.

Because I've seen no ghost hunter show of any ilk actually capture anything remotely paranormal I'd rather see real people who truly experienced the paranormal. That is the premise and reason for this show. It's far more interesting and entertaining to me. I even actually have empathy for these people who have suffered. Sometimes they can stay by having the spirits move on and sometimes they have to move. There is no one "fits all" ending. This rings far truer to me than than the ghost hunter ilk. Yeah, if you are going to watch ghost/paranormal shows this is far better.

I mean can it actual happened. Am young and hadn't really travel into many places to know everything about life. Is it anybody in here have ever lived any kind of this energy/activity in your lives ?

So far not one single "survivor" has teeth. They are either gone or rotten so badly. I'm sorry but that alone makes a viewer think all their encounters were due to drug use. Bad just really unbelievable.

The first season of this show had elements that made it seem like an amateurish production. Most of it was due to using ordinary people to do the re-enactments and some low budget ghost effects. Both, I would assume, were due to budget constraints. With season two, however, things have gotten better. They have been able to hire professional actors for the re-enactments, and the special effects have improved somewhat. I am surprised by the level of acting ability of the season two episodes. Of course, you know it's just acting (not the actual event), but it's just such an improvement over the stilted and unnatural performance of their season one cast. Some of those actors in season two are very good; I assume they are all Canadian, since the production company is in Canada. There is a large pool of fine under-used actors in Canada to choose from. Apparently, the production company of this show have taken advantage of that. I'm happy that a Canadian show seems to have been able to catch on with viewers. I live in Toronto. By the way, this show now has a narrator who sounds just like Anthony D. Call, the narrator that very long running American production called A Haunting.
