The best thing about Ghosts is ... it's just a simple, lightweight, amusing half hour, like sitcoms "back in the old days." They aren't carrying any heavy message, there's no grand angst ... it's just a fun show. The cast is diverse without hitting you over the head about it. I don't expect the show to last because it's so light and enjoyable.

This movie is truly awful. The dialogue and events are plodding clichés. I will watch just about anything - I am not picky. But I've seen better stories written by 14-year- olds.

Even Harlequin Romance would not have bought this dreck on their worst day. Great actors Garson and Andrews were given nothing to work with here. There was no logic for Andrews random cliché barking love/hate attitudes towards the entirely passive female played by Garson. We kept expecting the "forced kiss to put her in her place" trope.

We kept watching in hopes the movie would get better.

It didn't.

EDIT: I also kept watching expecting to see a closeup of my beloved Garson's face. They never did one. Not ONE. That's when I realized she must have been deemed "old" in Hollywood's eyes. :-(

I am not a regular viewer of this show. In fact, this is the first episode I've seen. But within the first 15 minutes, there was a weak event. One guy offers to set up a machine isolated from the other computers in the unit, so that if it contracts a virus from a suspicious website it won't infect their other computers.

This is not a novel computing concept; it's not a grand brainstorm. It's quite necessary. In the two years this show has been on, investigating cyber crime, is this the FIRST time they have needed to visit a potentially dangerous website? REALLY??

Other than that, I enjoyed this episode. As described in the summary, it explores an aspect of social media. I rated it a 7 of 10.
