Anybody see this on Friday night?

They replayed the documentary they made about 2 years ago in Virginia City and Goldfield, NV that was originally shown on the scifi network, and then showed the series premier. They has some pretty amazing footage. It's one of those situations where there is no gray area...its either real or a giant perfectly executed hoax. They did put a little too much emphasis on orbs, which I think 99% of the time are dust or insects, but their other footage makes up for that. Whether you believe what you're seeing or not, the show was pretty entertaining.

I'm a big fan of Ghost Hunters on Scifi...and always thought this was the most credible show that is dedicated to the paranormal. I'm still not sure if GA is as credible, but I think it's at least a close 2nd.

I haven't watched the new one, but I watched the original from two years ago (and again last night). I didn't remember the guys being such douche bags, but overall it was pretty good. I'm also a big fan of GH, and GHI. Barry from GHI is my personal fav, because you can tell he is ****ing crazy.

The apparition from the original Ga was impressive, as was the brick flying across the room.

There are shows that are definitely horseshite. Most Haunted is horrible with their psychics and orbs and stupid crap. Ghost Hunters takes a scientific approach and goes into a place trying to to disprove and debunk claims. They exhaust any possible logical explanation, and capture real evidence before they dare say a place is haunted or has paranormal activity. They have captured some very convincing looking evidence that is either real or absolute fraud. It very well could be fake..but they're doing a good job of faking it and keeping all of their shenanigans a secret if it is.
