Ghost Hunters (2004– )
2/10
It's not the ghosts, it's the team.
20 October 2019
I have to admit that I loved Ghost Hunters when it first premiered in 2004. My 2 cents is that when GH first began, they took some time to put some interpersonal relationship coverage between team members. The viewer got to know them. There was some drama that played out, and that helped you see these people as fairly earnest as far as what they were doing. And they disproved hauntings as well as finding some evidence. Eventually, the team bled members through being greedy and starting another show, and some actual drama between team members and the production company. Once they brought in ghost hunting dog, it was the beginning of the end.

I like Grant, but there is no chemistry with this new 2019 team. There is no banter, and they seem to be extremely interested in showing off their "new and improved" tech. There is also a lot more "what was that," where the viewer hears or sees nothing, but the team members mysteriously do. Ghost Hunters now seems to be channeling "Most Haunted." I don't see a long run with this incarnation of the show.
