It’s been many months now since CBS cancelled Ghost Whisperer. Many fans of the TV show are still shocked and upset about the cancellation and series star Jennifer Love Hewitt can sympathize.
In a recent interview with Zap2it, Hewitt revealed that she bought into the rumors that ABC might pick it up and talked about Ghost Whisperer’s abrupt end. She said, “For me, it was a total shock… I thought our next season probably would be the last, just because the show had been on for a really long time. It’s hard to come up with new things that will keep people intrigued, but I never thought in a million years that was going to have been our last season..”
Hewitt also expressed sadness about the fact that the story of Melinda Gordon was left unfinished. She noted, “I didn’t feel the series ended the way that [Melinda] deserved for it to. We left the audience sort of hanging, and I hate that. When you’ve taken people on a journey for so long, the least you can do is give them a goodbye. For a show that was about unfinished business, we didn’t get to finish.”
What do you think? What “unfinished business” bothers you the most about the show? How would you have ended Ghost Whisperer?
I really wanted Jims mom to get to find out that he was alive..I often thought it was strange that eli, delia, & ned knew but not his own mom..We really missed out on a lot..there are tons of shows that go on well over 5 seasons..It all has to do with the writer’s..CBS screwed up..then ABC screwed up for not picking up the show..thank god for DVRs..now i just have to get my grandson to love it as much as I do.
I think the way it ended ducked because she always says before I tell you my story is have to tell you their’s so what’s her story?
I love Ghost Whisperer and I wish that it could end properly. Maybe doing a movie as the final episode. I thought that everyone did a great job on the show. Love them all!
I wish we could sign a petition to bring it back for a final season. I really love this show.
I agree pin the petition!!!!
My daughter started watching it recently on Netflix then we saw it was on ION so set the DVR to record all episodes to watch back to back. So disappointed it ended on Season 5 without a proper finale. I agree with a previous comments about making one now. A 2hr show and a proper ending. We love the show and feel the viewers deserve a proper good-bye.
we will never no the real ending ov ghost and the real end in the story ov melinda , jim and aiden, delia , ned, and eli were stil waiting im sure a christmas special would make christmas a ickle bit better for us ghost fans x ?
I wish they would do a wrap up 2 hour movie or mini-series, This was a great show, It met an untimely death.
Over the years of watching this show I wondered why there wasn’t ever an ending, I would watch the show all day and I remembered when I saw the last episode i was left with a “Okay that’s it” moment..they could of at least made a finale. I understand CBS wants higher ratings, however for the audience being so loyal to the channel and watching the show for 5 years they could of just added one more episode with some sort of ending, not just leave us hanging..because of this I do not watch CBS anymore..big disappointment.
I absolutely love this show. Jennifer Love Hewitt was a great actress for this show. I do think it would be appropriate to have a two hour ending for the show. Wishful thinking. Great shows that aquire acting for a party get pushed away for reality shows. I got my own life, reality tv adds stress to life. A tv show as Ghost Whisper takes your mind to a place to relax more.
I wish they would either do a final show. Ghost Whisper was an awesome show. This show my kids and I would sit and watch together as a family. Now we are watching the show on ION. Come on since it has been five years now since it went off the air you can make a movie or a mini series on TV to close the show out for good.
I would have done a 2 hour look back with Melinda being older and it was she that finally crossed over.
I’m so disappointed that there isn’t a season 6. I’m 40yrs old and started watching the show because my daughter got me into it. I was hooked right away, but now that season 6 isn’t so, it really hurts my feelings. WE don’t even know what happens to Melinda nor her son. Way to mess this up boys!!!!!

I would not have ended the series in the way it had occurred.
Most fans prefer an ending if the series is going to be cancelled.
I personally would have continued the series,with the resources and talent they employ, I’m sure the series would have continued to be ‘full of at-the-end-of-your-seat’ drama,emotional and many times life-related.
I personally loved the show,sorry to see it cancelled; I would hope that if enough fans ‘express ‘ their love of the show they ‘might’ have it return.
It must have fan support,a lot of support,or it’s history,thanks for the series.
Ive seen my husband watching it on I-ON television, but it never interested me a few months ago. But one day I was channel surfing and the show was just starting. I tuned in and I was and still am hooked!!!
I-ON network air it weds from 9a – 3a and I curl up in bed and wat allday!!!
Hunby created a Ghost Whisperer addict! Now when we have to go out on weds, I set my dvr.
Shoot im watching right now! Lol. Wish it was still on

I really wish they would do one last season or movie something to wrap everything up. Look at all these other shows on TV that are not worth watching. Ghost whisper was amazing show.
