Dead Famous

I wanted to like this show, and the hosts are a likable pair, but the show is the same show over and over. Never any real proof of a haunting anywhere they go. Just some photo's of orbs (most paranormal researchers don't consider orbs paranormal) and Chris contorting and making weird noises, sorry Chris but I can do the same thing if I wanted to. Also the choice of locations leave a lot to be desired. If you want to catch a ghost's spirit you should go to actual places they lived, not a restaurant they went to at some point in their lives....

I like Gail Porter, she is cute and perky, even after losing her hair I think she is awesome, but they show just doesn't deliver the goods. However, it can be entertaining as long as you know you aren't going to see a haunting.

Gayle's attitude of skeptic is valid. Chris abilities as sensitive are valid. She says she doesn't believe but in every investigation she cannot be left alone anywhere. She gets angry if he doesn't run to her every scream. Also, he allows her to remain a skeptic. She gets aggressive with Chris on the supernatural possibilities that are presented to her. At times, she discredits his abilities. Even though she has been touched on many occasions and runs out of any dark room.

The reason this show works so well is that unlike certain other ghost hunting shows it is not full of believers. There are only 2 presenters, Chris Fleming and Gail Porter. Chris is the 'sensitive' with the gift of being able to communicate with, feel and 'see' the dead. He has been developing his talent since he was a young boy and is definitely one of the best I have seen. Gail Porter on the other hand is a skeptic and needs a bit on convincing. Together they travel America looking for the spirits of the 'Dead Famous'. They are both rational and don't freak out at the slightest little noise which is where I think a lot of paranormal shows are going wrong at the moment. They are willing to admit when they don't find anything and this makes the show refreshing and unfake! An excellent show.

UI have always thought that thi series was really very well put togather. I think Chris Flemming is very natural and Gail gives constructive critisism (as well as the odd scream!)

They work very well as a team and have that spark that really lights up the 3 series. I know that the places they visit have sometimes very vague connections with the dead celebrity, but that just adds to the interest. The background music is incredible, and also adds that certain something, that always keeps the audience interested.

Its so nice to see Chris again on UK TV, and we have Zak to thank! Would love to see those two in their own show.

If anyone has series 3 of Dead Famous, I would love to see them again, as it has only been shown once

I found and find Dead famous to be a top show. It's very different from the usual paranormal shows you see where everyone screams at the slightest sound. Gail's sceptical attitude mixed with Chris' ability and outlook certainly make compelling viewing through their disagreement or even if Gail thinks something is amiss - its good to see.

I'm glad this show hasn't followed the similar routes in which other shows follow just to keep gullible viewers watching. Recently an episode was displayed where not a great deal happened and other than one comical moment that was it - Most shows would of just faked something. But not dead famous. This is why I feel it is refreshing to see.

Chris is seriously enthusiastic about his paranormal research rather than in it for the bucks and Gail is quite a brave young lady for taking on what she does. Also having a "target spirit" is quite intriguing, Chances of finding that spirit may be very slim but it certainly makes i more interesting than just hitting a location and hoping to find SOMEONE, and that be the end of it.

I'm afraid I have no idea why anybody would have a negative view of this show - It's very appealing on many many different views. With brief history of locations, history and talks about the celebrity who is being researched and of course the paranormal aspect of the show. Not to mention the lovely view for both the men and the ladies ;)
