The following concerns what purports to be a major twist to
come during the fourth season of CBS'
Ghost Whisperer. If you wish to emerge
unspoiled, turn away now.
Jennifer Love Hewitt, speaking out for the first time since
a possible Ghost Whisperer
plot point found its way onto the Internet (by way of
EW's Ausiello SEE
STORY BELOW THIS STORY), has these three words of advice for
shocked fans: Wait and see.
Declining to confirm reports that Melinda's husband, Jim,
will himself give up the ghost early in the new season, Love
instead tells TVGuide.com, "The important thing to
always remember is that
things are not as they seem on our show. We never do
anything cut-and-dry. There are lots of opportunities for
people to think that one thing is going to happen, and it
actually turns out to be something else."
Will the Whisperer's better half merely
cheat death? Maybe flatline for a bit,
visit with Denny, and then come back? Or will he outright
die, but stick around as a ghost deserving of extra-special
whispering? (It's been said that David Conrad, who plays
Jim, has been itching to either get more to do on
GW or be let loose.) Love
lets slip nothing.
"People should very much keep their eyes open and enjoy the
ride into our big storyline for the season rather than try
to guess what's going to happen and how," she advises.
"People don’t have any idea what's coming. But it
is going to be very cool."

Oh-Oh.....
UPDATED AUGUST 28, 2008
From Entertainment
Weekly
Warning: Major 'Ghost Whisperer'
Spoiler Below!
Consider this your final warning.
Okay, so, death is no stranger to
Ghost Whisperer. Heck,
the show's very premise hinges on Jennifer Love Hewitt chatting with
the dearly departed every week. (Or so Mandi Bierly tells me.)
But this season, the Grim Reaper makes it
personal.
Although CBS declined to comment,
multiple sources confirm what has been buzzing on the Internet for
weeks (final final
warning): Melinda is about to become a widow, as producers have
decided to kill off TV hubby Jim (David Conrad) early in season 4.
OMFGWTFLOL?!
Simmer!
Remember, this is
Ghost Whisperer, people. It's highly unlikely
that Jim's death will mark the end of Conrad's
GW run (see also: sassy
Talk Soup lady). But how long will he be
sticking around and in what capacity? God only knows.
Bottom line: If, like Ms. Bierly, you
only watch GW for "those
special moments when he actually gets to do something, like wear a
wifebeater to bed," don't freak out. At least not until I
tell you to freak out.
Okay, time to freak
out.
