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?
how come you’ll havent still deceided about season 6? C’mon guys it was the best show this should go forever, r u’ll nuts to cancel this hit show?!!! WHATS WRONG WITH YOU’LL
what happens to aiden, melinda, the shinys, the shadows, melinda’s mysterious brother and father??? i want a finale for the show all of these things connect somehow….its so sad i just wanna know
If it was up to me, Ghost Whisperer would still be active. I watched from the first season; never occurred to me to miss an episode. Whether you believe in ghosts or not, the snow is very entertaining. One of the best on tv. Angry that no new episodes will be in the making.
My husband and I have been major fans since episode one. We had recorded and watched EVERY episode!! The ending was NOT an ending…it just left us hanging. We were so disapppointed when we heard it was cancelled. However, we were also disappointed at the turn the show took toward Melinda turning more toward Ely than Jim. The relationship between Melinda and Jim was so strong and that was the strength of the show. He supported her and believed in what she was doing…I truly believe that is why the last year’s ratings went down. This show deserves to at… Read more »
i also got very addicted to ghost whisperer i downloaded all seasons and would watch 2 episodes a night it became a routine for me…..i am really.really unhappy that there are no more seasons…please look into what to do and its a pity to leave all these fans ‘hanging’we really want the show to continue,and with the same cast…..
I have just started watching Ghost Whisperer a few months ago on the Directv channel 347, not sure the name of the channel. I was hooked the first time I watched it. So much so, that I bought all five seasons and have watched all of them two times and am watching them again for the third time. I realize this is a tv show, but it does give you such hope about life after death. I am a christian and love the lord very much. Jesus spoke of love during his 3 years of ministry. On Ghost Whisperer it… Read more »
Who were after Melinda? The ending was too abrupt and there was no logical segue into the ending. I may have missed one week and looked for it the next and found nothing, no warning, no explanation just GONE!
From a dedicated fan, I have watched this show from season one down to the last one.
I waited for months for the six season and I waited and waited and never heard about a cancellation. I have just read about it on the internet. This makes me unhappy, I always enjoyed this show. At least create a two hour movie and give us an ending.
Sincerely
A Fan

I just found out that my favorite show the Ghost Whisperer has been canceled. I truly enjoyed the actors and the characters that they represented. I also found comfort from watching the show when my father died unexpectedly. I am boycotting CBS!
I am extremely upset that they cancelled Ghost Whisperer. Everyone I knew watched the show. I think their numbers were skewed. I agree with Jennifer that they left us hanging. Unortunately, I missed the last show and didn’t even know they were canceling the show. Shame and Boo to you CBS!
I watched every episode purchased the dvds and watched them multiple times. Although I would love to see the series get picked up by another network at least a series finale would be nice. The more networks do these things the less likly I am to ever buy any TV Series dvd’s. Why should we bother they won’t even finish or close a story just leave us hanging. It is exactly why I do not watch any series on TV anymore . I hope others follow suit with me then the the networks can put paid programming commercials on all… Read more »
I would really like to see an ending. I have watched the show since episode 1, how could CBS do this to the fans. If they wanted to make it right they would do a 2 hour final episode or something. I can say my days of watching CBS are done unless they fix their mistake.
I really wish they would make a season six.. I love watching ghost whisperer.. I watch it every day on ion tv.. Me and my daughter have really got into it.. I just can beleive there isn’t goig to be anymore..
I have been a Ghost Whisper fan since the very first show and I am highly disappointed that the is cancelled. I would at least like to see a goodbye show. I am really upset with CBS leaving its fan in a state of confusion. I do hope and pray another network wuld pick up Ghost Whisper.
I only recently discovered Ghost Whisperer on ION reruns and have become addicted. It’s the only show I currently record. I too would love to have seen a big finale and would urge some other network to take it up. But perhaps death itself always leaves unfinished, “not quite ready” cliffhangers. Perhaps not wrapping things up with leave it all mysterious.
I will look forward to reruns. Thanks to Jennifer and the cast for a wonderful, quality, uplifting production.
