Long Island Medium

I have to admit that I'm not a 'believer' so this show seems to me to be a scripted series with excellent researchers carefully checking up on her 'clients' before their appearances. It's even more unrealistic when she does readings for celebrities whose life details are even easier to find. I do like her, having seen her in person twice where she seemed extremely pleasant and accommodating to her fans. However, I think her gimmick is phony baloney and appeals only to those who truly believe in the after-life and desperately want to reconnect to their deceased loved ones.

This season's editions have not been up to snuff. Celebrities, for the most part, are boring. A big part of Theresa's appeal is her ability to interact psychically with every day people. Lately though, maybe as a means of boosting ratings, this has not been the case. Also, why is the Long Island medium spending so much time in unedgy LaLa Land? I realize her soon to be ex now lives there, but she shouldn't be following. The Long Island medium should be in Long Island. Period, end of sentence!!

A woman makes money by conning people, seems like a good TV show. I have sympathy for those that think such cons are in their best interests but when it comes to the internet there really should be no pardon for his kind of crap. What kind of person do you have to be to make a living doing this? I get that these people are professionals when it comes to seeming nice and likable, that's their job after all, but in 2014 how the hell are people still buying it?

Apparently I can't pad this review out with junk like the show does most of its episodes so I'll leave it here and hope it's enough.

Sigh.

I never heard of this show until I ran across it by accident. TLC was doing one of those things where they play one episode after another. I started watching and was absolutely hooked in just a few minutes. Theresa is the real deal. It's so obvious that she's telling people stuff that she never could have known except through a connection with "Spirit" as she calls it. The shock on people's face when she tells them stuff she could not have known or found out is evident and authentic. Aside from that, Theresa herself seems to be bursting with "joie de vivre." She's having a good time with her family, her life and the people in it and she's using her gift to help others. I highly recommend you give this show a chance. If you don't believe in mediums or spirits, it may just make a believer out of you. If it doesn't, I still think you'll enjoy watching Theresa and her family go along dealing with day to day life and factoring in her gift along with that.

She is a character. a great one. for her energy and for the revelations about the past of her clients, for rhytm of life and for the power to assume the life. portrrait of a medium, the show is more. it is a fascinating t remember about the connections with the relatives and a beautiful invitation to live in joy. a serie about courage and about the high value of life. for me, one of series for refresh me. because it is not only about paranormal. it is not only entertainment. it represents a serie about giving and ordinary family crisis and a film about America. first, I was skeptical about the powers of Theresa Caputo and abouther cases or revelations about the past of people. but the significant part is dipper in this case. because, in essence, it is a serie about yourself. the emotion of the persons, the fears or vulnerability of Theresa are yours. and that does "Long Island Medium" special.
