Long Island Medium

The show itself is watchable. Once you realize she simply cold reads or cheats to come up with information or uses plants it's despicable. Then editing works it's magic. Shows you the good stuff where it seems she's connecting with someone. If you don't know what cold reading is then you should youtube: Theresa Caputo exposed as fake and it explains it quite well. Cold reading's been done for a long time and she's a liar. Imagine basing your career off lying about helping people and connecting with their loved ones. Most of these cold readers rationalize it by thinking they're giving comfort even if it's not true. Well I'm sure she can rationalize it to herself when she's raking in the dough. If this doesn't bother you then go ahead watch it.

Don't support this. This woman is taking advantage of people's feelings and emotions. It's basiclly abusive.

This season's editions have not been up to snuff. Celebrities, for the most part, are boring. A big part of Theresa's appeal is her ability to interact psychically with every day people. Lately though, maybe as a means of boosting ratings, this has not been the case. Also, why is the Long Island medium spending so much time in unedgy LaLa Land? I realize her soon to be ex now lives there, but she shouldn't be following. The Long Island medium should be in Long Island. Period, end of sentence!!

I've felt attracted to the paranormal ever since I had my first experience, as a child. And I have seen my share of stuff. I even live in a house that was apparently occupied by some ghost. Someone came and get "it" to leave. So after that, I don't think is impossible that she could be a medium. I don't know what's involved in the making, and how they might follow her all day with the cameras. But from the first time I saw the show, I thought it was fun and weird. Then out of curiosity, I continued watching episode after episode, and I came to understand the format, and even to love it. You get laughs, emotions, etc, plus it really seems so natural. Any how, it's a good show to watch. Along with that I have watched similar shows, such as Medium and Ghost Whisperer, My Haunted house and My Ghost Stories. Check them out.

I never heard of this show until I ran across it by accident. TLC was doing one of those things where they play one episode after another. I started watching and was absolutely hooked in just a few minutes. Theresa is the real deal. It's so obvious that she's telling people stuff that she never could have known except through a connection with "Spirit" as she calls it. The shock on people's face when she tells them stuff she could not have known or found out is evident and authentic. Aside from that, Theresa herself seems to be bursting with "joie de vivre." She's having a good time with her family, her life and the people in it and she's using her gift to help others. I highly recommend you give this show a chance. If you don't believe in mediums or spirits, it may just make a believer out of you. If it doesn't, I still think you'll enjoy watching Theresa and her family go along dealing with day to day life and factoring in her gift along with that.
