I remember discovering this show by accident with my mother. We both instantly loved it. It was funny, suspenseful, and a bit mystical. It was on a Canadian channel we got in Detroit. I remember it being on Friday or Saturday night, but I could be wrong. I just remember loving every second of the show, and the lead character was very funny, but he solved a crime every week. It was just so ahead of its time - a great blend of comedy and suspense. Every once in a while I will try to find it I never do. To my knowledge, it was never on DVD, and has never aired since the 80's. I would pay anything to stream it somwhere.
It was funny, mysterious and had great T.O. In jokes. It provided some story lines which challenged the status quo.
The main characters were not the "pretty people", they were the talented and flawed people.
It was refreshing, and a topic of conversation at dinner tables which bridged the rigid space between young values and old values.
When will it be available on DVD?
But also when will "Seeing Things 2000+" make it's way onto the world stage, or at least the CBC?
We're waiting;-)

I have always loved this show! I have been identified as Minnesota's own Louis Ciccone! Why isn't this very good CBC show on DVD? I have been waiting for this and Remember WENN to appear for us on DVD. At least someone had the sense to put Nero Wolfe on DVD! Please Canada give us a chance to purchase a DVD copy that can play again in the United States. Do you remember the episode where Marge Ciccone's favorite singer is murdered right before her eyes? And Louis solves his murder? Well guess what, I had a similar experience! I was able to prevent the murder of Country singer Tanya Tucker! There are three shows I would love to see on DVD and ironically none of them are on DVD. Ellery Queen with the late Jim Hutton and the late David Wayne. Remember WENN and Seeing Things. I was recently mentioned in Vancouver, BC for helping to solve the murders caused by Robert William "Willie" Pickton. Does anyone know if Stevie Cameron has finished her book yet? Is Seeing Things still being shown on the Mystery Channel?
'Cos I'm seeing things, believe me! I've never seen before! 'Cos I'm seeing things, deceive me, Like when you're walkin' out the door, I couldn't believe my eyes !!!
Man I loved this show. I remember the theme song like it was yesterday even though I haven't seen it since i was about 8 years old back in the 1980's. That eerie music when he had the visions, used to scare the pants off me. Gave me nightmares the first time I saw it, but when I got a year older, I found it again and loved it. Too young to be allowed to watch it though. But I still sneaked in the lounge without Mum and Dad seeing me and watched it from behind their chairs. A really great show, probably my favourite show of all time. I hope I get to see it again someday on DVD, I'll buy it straight away. It just had such a charm to it. It's great to see that you guys have seen it too. I also have asked people if they remember it and they look at me as if I'm losing my mind.

I used to watch this show sporadically in the early 80's on the CBC. Now it is currently run on digital channels Mystery and Deja View here in Canada. I gotta say I love the show. Seeing Things is an interesting snapshot of Canada in the early 80's.
All in all most of the eps seem well written and acted, although not nearly as slick as current programs on network TV...but that could be the charm of this show.
Del Grande was pretty funny in this show. Just a normal guy type character.
I have to nominate the theme song for Seeing Things as the most bizarre and odd theme song for any television show.
Thanks to Mystery and Deja View for running this classic.

- Crazy creditsWhen this series was rerun on the Canadian cable network Showcase in the mid-1990s, the network chose to precede each episode with a disclaimer advising viewers that the series - produced only a few years earlier - "does not necessarily depict" the way relationships between men and women were treated in the 1990s. This politically correct disclaimer was roundly criticized by viewers and the media, and was eventually dropped by the network.
