Ghost Whisperer Season 3 Finale : Is Jim Dead?
UPDATE 9/28/08: Ghost Whisperer Major Spoilers! It’s about someone dying which explains the shadow thing.
Sorry for the delay. Ghost Whisperer is just an okay show, so I don’t really watch it until there’s nothing good on T.V. Since all my favorite shows already ended, I decided to watch season 3.
I must admit that the whole Tom Gordon not being Melinda’s dad bit, really surprised me. I didn’t see that coming, at least not until Melinda’s mom said she lived with Paul Eastman for a while. It was good. It answered some of the mysteries surrounding Melinda, but also opened more questions for the next season.
I’m wondering who Gabriel is now? Is he still Melinda’s brother? There was this one scene where Tom referred to Melinda as “your sister” when he was talking to Gabriel. It’s possible that Gabriel never knew that Tom wasn’t Melinda’s real dad. Also, that underground thing is not yet resolved too. The whole mystery of Grandview.
I have a theory about the cliffhanger. During the end, Payne saw only five shadows instead of six. I keep rewinding it, and there was a gap between Delia and Ned where Jim was supposed to be standing. I wish I could post some screen shots. I’ll try to acquire some and update this post later. But anyway, is Jim dead? If so, it would be awesome but at the same time sad. It will give the show some new drama and twists. It would also mean that Melinda’s mom would get more screen time since Melinda will need a family. I’m sad for Melinda though. They’re a really happy couple. Jim seems to be the only person who understands and supports her.
Anyway, let’s just wait and see what will happen next season. I will definitely watch it now. I’m intrigued.
UPDATE
Here, you can see Jim interacting with Delia and Ned. I never really seen Payne touching anybody except Melinda. If Payne is the ghost, even Melinda isn’t supposed to touch him right? It’s confusing because Jim also touched Ned. Maybe nobody is dead after all? Maybe it’s just an omen or something.
Here are the shadows. As you can see Jim doesn’t have any.
Confusing huh? I’m now saying it’s just an omen. Nobody is dead. What you think?

No, I don’t think it is Jim. I think it is Payne. I know Ghost Whisperer normally doesn’t do the obvious thing, but if someone else was dead, Payne wouldn’t have been able to see them, and also Beth sees ghosts so would she not have commented? Plus you see Jim and Ned, and Jim and Delia interacting so I don’t think it could be him. Plus I think it would change the dynamic of the show way too much if they killed Jim

Daft Sally Says:
I think it is a very good possibility that Jim could die. Sometimes, actors just choose to leave shows. They have always left an ‘out’ for Jim’s death: the tension between Melinda and Payne. And let’s not forget how much Andrea meant to the show, and how much it changed when she left. Besides, why would we watch the same season over and over? Things have to change or we are gonna get bored with a capital ‘B’.
Everyone in that scene was interacting, including Payne. I don’t think anyone is dead yet, I think it is a premonition, not necessarily of Jim’s death… but they sure hinted at it. Maybe Payne is going to die. Maybe Jim. Maybe no one. Maybe the shadows under the town are messing with Melinda again. Let’s just not get so comfortable with the idea that no one in the show can die because they sprung that on us in season one.

Ooohh…this is intriguing! I love the graphic you made. LoL. Maybe his shadow is hidden by Ned’s, kinda? Or maybe satan ate his soul!!!!

Ivy the Turkey Whisperer Says:
Lol thanks. It’s just something to illustrate what I was talking about.
haha maybe Satan did ate his soul or shadow. He was like….hmm Jim’s shadow looks yummy *chomp chomp*.

Not Payne
* contiguos shadws mean ghost can not be in middle
* Melinda n Mom would know cause both would have seen him. M knows ghosts from not automatically.
* holding M’s hand / interacting physically
Yes Jim
* would have uncharistically ignored M hldg Payne’s hand
* he is at end of line of contiguous shdws
* he is acting strange bopping around Ned
* Ned and mom interaction could have been w/eachother
Not Jim
* may have interacted w/ Ned
Yes Payne
* on new show/series
* would have to have seen ghost to know how many people+ there were
* M looked at him immediately upon realization, not elsewhere to see who the ghost might be

ReagunUSA Says:
Didn’t Jim have something on his back a while ago that suggested he was the likely death of a loved one person? Also, that final scene screams Jim in that he never interacts with anyone when someone else is not simultaneously and seperately interacting with the same person; he is the only one who never casts a shadow; Melinda’s mom says “go with your friends”; and Melinda ignores Jim during the whole walk while choosing to walk with Payne and hold his hand. Also no way Melinda is interacting with Payne without knowing he is a ghost, that would be a mega copout by the producers. Just one thing though, how does Payne know Jim is there and how does M also know, when he mentions it? If M knew one of the main characters was dead but acted all happy like in that scene, it would be a mega copout. But if she did not know, it would be the first time she saw a ghost without knowing (also a mega copout). I like the theory that it is a bad ghost warning rather than a death. But why would P and M be soooo concerned then? Must have something to do with Payne’s rumored upcoming sabattical. That guy is just too good on that show to pass into the light and the rumored Jamie Kennedy expirement is risky. That guy has had no staying power on anything and is a jump the shark risk.

Ivy Says:
I’m still saying it’s just an omen, like part of the mystery they’ll weave on season 4. I agree with your point ReagunUSA about Payne. He cannot see ghosts so if one of them was a ghost then why would he say there are 6 of them and only 5 shadows. So this just proved that nobody is really dead.
The question now is, who is in danger? Since missing shadow and all, that just screamed danger all over it. I think it’s Jim. From that graphic I made, he’s the one without the shadow. So I’m expecting a near death experience for Jim next season.
Posted on June 18th, 2008 at 7:27 am
ReagunUSA Says:
OK, so looks like a probable omen/warning. One thing…. I maean, come on. We know Payne has a machine-like mind, but reallly, who counts shadows crossing the street, especially when one of the group is standing behind the others? What posessed him to do that (and he didn’t seem posessed, he seemed scared - and that guy doesn’t scare easily.) Speaking of posession, I suppose it could be a displaced spirit rather than a death, esp with Daddy flitting around now. But then we have the same problems as with a death. So I’m with Ivy on this being an omen. Another question though, how could this be related to Payne sabatticallizing after a couple of episodes? Jim being a ghost would actually fit there (he has a conflict within himself regarding M SPARKED BY jim’s presence - guilt or something.
Posted on June 18th, 2008 at 4:44 pm
ReagunUSA Says:
Apologs for the gab, but just 1 more theory (not fully mine). Theory is Jim’s posessed. In that scenario, all we have to make the jump on is that posessed bodies, while corporeal, do not cast shadows (like vampires). If we get over that, everything else fits. Melida ignored Jim cause she is a VERY feeling person and she “sensed” there was no Jim there. PosessedJim did not want to hang near M or Payne for fear of being found out. Payne of course knows posessed people don’t cast shadows, which explains why he was counting them (otherwise inexplicable). He had told Melinda, which is why she was also concerned when he pointed it out (not quizzacle; concerned). Payne goes on sabattical cause rampant evil posession spirits (like Daddy) threaten to make him hurt M.he would never leave her for any other reason than to protect her. If Project Gary does not work out, we can bring him back and kill off Jim if Jamie Kennedy jumps the shark. What do you think?
Posted on June 19th, 2008 at 5:18 pm
Ivy Says:
That’s a really good theory ReagunUSA. It would create an awesome story line if Jim was possessed. Give more drama to the show. It will also make the audience fear for Jim’s life because let’s face it, Jim have never really been in danger. He’s Melinda’s husband, surely the ghosts who hated Melinda should have at least thought hurting Jim would hurt Melinda.
Anyway, I hate Jamie Kennedy haha. Maybe he’s a comedic relief for the show like Jay Mohr was. It would really suck if Jim will be replaced by Jamie Kennedy.

Kristy Says:
Well, I think it is Payne. If you rewind back through the last episode you do find clues,such as…
1. In one scene, the phone rings and P tells M that “if that’s for me , I’m already gone.”
2. in the same scene he picks up a stack of books while saying, ” I’m getting the hang of this.” It takes ghosts a while to be able to touch things. This would explain the holding of M’s hand at the end.
3. Also the camera focused in on the top book which was about ghosts.
4. Payne can’t see ghosts so since he can see everyone else, suggests that he is the ghost. Remember, Andrea had to figure it out on her own, M didn’t tell her.
5. When he fell in the shop, M left him there when she left. Why didn’t she ask if he was ok or wait for him to get up and come with her?
6. In one scene, he was talking to the mouse asking what seemed to be afterlife questions.

ReagunUSA Says:
OK, Kristy got me leaning the other way. I have an admittedly lame theory on the contiguous shadow problem:: The second shadow from the right, that is supposed to be Payne’s, has no torso in Ivy’s second pic. The producers could claim it was Jim’s, who was standing behind the group. The shadow line seems displaced to the right, as if there is a light source over to the left, which would be necessary to have Jim’s shadow project a different way than the tilt of the other shadows would suggest. The “Delia” shadow in Ivy’s first pic would have to be Jim. Granted, would be a copout by the producers unless there are two suns, but I do not see another way to explain contiguous shadows with the middle guy being dead. Would love to hear better theories. Also, the final scene does make sense if P is dead. Jim and M would have known beforehand, of course M knew and told Jim. When Jim saw M walking down the path, he knew what she was doing, and THAT is why he went to the other side of the line, to allow M to do her job; esp delicate in this case. All other Payne interaction could easily have been illusiory from the producers. Also, M is wearing black, which is not unusual, but still…….

ReagunUSA Says:
Look at Ivy’s 1st pic. Payne’s shadow, if he was projecting one, should totally be bigger/longer than the rest since he is by far the most forward?
Posted on June 28th, 2008 at 9:39 am
Jack Lee Says:
just because he has a shadow duznt mean hees ded. he could be possessed. But I think back in the episode of the ” Death of a Loved One”, it pointed out that Jim had those signs behind his back. That scene gave us a warning that something would happen. But the question is how he died? I think it might be Melinda’s false dad.
Posted on June 28th, 2008 at 10:45 am
Kristy Says:
I don’t think the shadows were meant to be analized that closley. First of all, the shadows are in a straight line as if everyone were standing right next to each other and exactly the same height. But as we can see from Ivy’s pic, everyone is standing kinda stagered. So, I think the only significance about the shadows is how many there are.

OK I found this post on another site…
Miranda in Sioux Falls, S.D.: Is there any new scoop on Ghost Whisperer?
I just talked to J. Love Hew., and she says that season four is all about possession. This season is going to be especially dark and morbid, and apparently demonic forces will possess many of Grand View’s still-living citizens—and maybe the town itself…

Richie Says:
After the interactions happen, they start to show people from the side, right? They first show Jim hugging Dehlia, then two cars pass and the shadows appear, and finally they show Jim and Dehlia then the camera start to show half of Dehlia’s face and Payne’s one. I noticed one thing…
WHERE IS NED?
P.S.: sorry by the Caps Lock turned on

Rachella Says:
I figured this out right away. All the shadows match up to everyone but Jim. Jim is standing back and so there would be one shadow shorter than all the others. It is not that he is dead. As my mom brought up, there is a suspicion that is you can’t see your shadow you are going to die. So its doesnt mean he is dead yet. But it IS his shadow. It has to be.
Posted on July 9th, 2008 at 7:50 pm
Rachella Says:
Now after posting and then reading the comments, I have to go back and watch the episode. Kristy really has me thinking the other way. It would all make sense if it is all there. Good job.
Posted on July 9th, 2008 at 7:57 pm
Ivy Says:
Maybe Payne is possessed that’s why he doesn’t have a shadow and after all the possession drama he will take a sabbatical cause he couldn’t handle the ghost world anymore. It coincides with the reported rumors that Payne will be having a sabbatical cause Jay Mohr will be leaving the show.

u know wat i think it’s about the fives in season 2 the five things
maybe it’s the chosen five and payne isn’t the five so he left the whole series

deborahs Says:
i’m new to this, and i havent seen the last episode of season three, but in reading the comments, i would be inclined to think that Jim will be the one to die.
I base this on having read that melinda is told she will get weaker, this would make sense if she loses her husband, and probably doesnt want him to cross over. She would obviously not want to help him cross over as he will leave her- but leaving his soul uncrossed could allow for the darkness to take him over. a possesion.
Melinda would also be weakened by the fact that Payne is setting off to do his own thing, and that Delia struggles to fully believe in the afterlife.
it is not without reason that the five shadows were mentioned, nor that strange line up of them all was shown.
its also the fact that Jim is slightly behind the rest of them, almost showing the new line the show may take, the improved relationship with mother and daughter. And a touchy feely vibe between Melinda and payne, which has not been seen before.
we can only wait and see- as an aside, the writing on jims back about death of a loved one, was that not Melinda when she died, and Gabriel signed to her that that was the fifth sign fulfilled, setting off the about her family in season 3.

Adz Says:
basicly, i just backed up a page and lost wat i had writen…
so quick version of wat i said….
KIRST* - “2. in the same scene he picks up a stack of books while saying, ” I’m getting the hang of this.” It takes ghosts a while to be able to touch things. This would explain the holding of M’s hand at the end.”
at first i thought, yeh good point.. but then it got me thinking..
P saying ” I’m getting the hang of this.” when picking up the books suggest’s he knows he’s dead/ a ghost, but that dosnt add up with the ending when he realised their was only 5 shadows… and was shocked.. which would suggest he didnt know he was a ghost.. hence being shocked…
and in turn him saying their was 6 of them and only 5 shadows means he see’s everyone their…
so either he somehow is seeing the ghost in the group.. “unlikely twist* or more plausable.. no one is dead =] HAPPY DAYS! lol
I could be soo wrong!
post sumthing let me know what you people think bout my idea! =]

ahh i watched that secen again where P says -
“im getting the hang of this”
what he actualy says is “wow the dead are really getting the hang of this, cnt be good news for the living” he was talking the possesion’s the ghosts have been doing, as M mentioned it to him just before he said it… which got me thinking… again…. lol
i think that line has nothing to do with anything lol same for the phone call line when the phone rings and he says if its for me im already gone… why would someone phone M when they wanted to spk to P anyway.. another one of P’s sarcy comments

Akin Says:
No one is dead. How do I know? Simple - Payne said, “There are six of us but only 5 shadows.”
Only two of the six people can see ghosts - Melinda and Beth. Payne can’t, yet he acknowledges that there ARE six people, which means he SEES six people.
You could argue that one of them is dead and Payne has developed the ability to see dead people, but that would be cheesy and I don’t think the producers would do that.
I’m going to go with the omen theory someone said above.
Posted on July 21st, 2008 at 3:46 pm
Akin Says:
Then again, if Payne sees six people including himself but just five shadows, you could argue that Payne is the one who is dead.
However, you would be wrong, because Melinda is holding his hand. That’s impossible - she can’t hold a ghost’s hand.

Betty Boop Says:
i don’t think any body is dead. if you notice Ned (Delia’s son) shadow you will see it is bigger than the others. i think that’s because Jim is standing half behind him so Jim’s shadow is in Ned’s.
Posted on August 2nd, 2008 at 4:49 pm
Stagetenor Says:
I just watched the last 8 episodes in 2 days…
I think the shadow issue is possession…here’s why…
Clearly, they all see each other…In the scene between Mel and her mom, you see Jim touches Payne…then Mel and mom link arms, Jim squeezed Ned, Jim touches Delia, Mel and Payne link arms…so they are all alive…but there are only 5 shadows…
Throughout the season, possession has gotten more involved, to the point where the ghost sort of kicks the real person out of the body.
In the episode about the web guy (Justin?) whose girlfriend died on the boat and is in the under city and bad bad bad - she says something like “we are learning how to be able to live up there again - we can teach you” — she MUST be talking about taking over somebody’s body.
The evil dark spirit is still out there somewhere from the first 2 seasons…plus Tom’s ghost is surely angry, but probably not strong enough to possess…We also know the under city spirits are trying to get out…we see them in the creepy street scenes often…
In the last couple episodes, Jim has been acting pretty strange…first threatening death to Tom in the hospital, then verbally attacking Mel’s mom…not like him….
SO - maybe Jim is possessed? He does stay sort of back and away from Mel…
Plus, Gabriel is still out there…and, oddly enough, he remained very uninvolved during the entire “Mel find her real dad”….just my thoughts.

Jennifer Says:
That last episode just opened so many new questions for me.
One question is who is gabriel if tom is not melinda’s father ??
Anyway.. the point to this comment is that i don’t think Jim’s sshadow is missing. If you look at the first and second picture you would see that he is standing behind ned and ned is the same height almost which means jims shadow is within neds shadow.
Or.. maybe it’s jim’s shadow we can see and ned is the one with the missing shadow ???
Anyway not long til 4th season anyway so questions will be answered soon.. hopefully lol

If you look properley you can see that jim isnt there because is standing back a bit but you can see the bump of his head in between the 2 shadows. in the clip everyone is interacting, I think it was just made 2 fool everyone!!

misty Says:
I don’t think professor payne is dead. For one, ghosts are always in the clothes they die in melinda states this numerous times throughout the show. In the second to last episode, stranglehold he is wearing a shirt with dinosaurs on it. He doesn’t really appear much in the last episode, and when he does I believe he is wearing a gray suit. In the end he is wearing a brown suit when he see’s the five shadows… So no I don’t think he’s dead unless something happened in that last episode that they didn’t show. One thing is for sure and that is that someone is dead… either that or they will completely suprise us with something else as an explanation for there not being a fifth shadow….
I really hope that Jim is not dead, he just brings so much to the show. Maybe it’s my own hopes… the only case against payne I see is that the only one holding his hand in the end is melinda and he doesn’t really interact with the others. But if he was indeed dead she wouldn’t be able to hold his hand…
I can’t wait until fourth season!

It’s Jim!!
Not sure if he is dead or possessed. If you watch the video carefully, you’ll see Jim’s shoulder moving in front of Delia and whilst moving around (especially his head) physically there is no movement on the shadow’s.
Can’t wait for the 4th season……AND bring Andrea back!!!! working with Melinda but from the other-side…….Also she is hot

misty Says:
After I wrote my last comment I’ve done some research. I found some leaked scripts and looked over the episode and all the info I was able to get. I believe that the five shadows are an omen of whats to come. They’ve had signs before, and if you remember back a season or two theres an omen that someone melinda loves will die and the writing in jim’s back points to him. From the leaked scripts I read Jim is a ghost atleast for a while. One script portrays him as a ghost and a later script portrays him as alive and well but with amnesia. He doesn’t remember melinda and thinks his name is sam. So perhaps he is put into a coma and his ghost is out of his body. Payne I don’t think dies, as I said I think this is an omen and from what I read he goes on sabbatical, Probably not meaning a permanent one (death) Also I see everyone in the paterna familia episode interacting. Everyone except Jim that is. He is just standing there. Delia and Payne are clearly talking as melinda and her mother walk up on them to go see the ships.
Jim is standing there but isn’t interacting. So either it’s an omen or it’s Jim… ignoring the obviousness of him only seeing the five shadows and knowing that there are six people there.
This could also mean that he see’s jim there which would mean jim isn’t dead.
It’s all confusing including the leaked scripts I read for the upcoming season.

Miss Bat Says:
Hm, well I don’t really know who it is. I think it IS an Omen. But I watched the ReRuns tonight, and they showed up coming attractions for the new season, starting October 3rd. You see Payne, Jim, and Delia. Melinda’s mother isn’t shown, and neither is Ned. So it has GOT to have to do with either Jim or Payne, because honestly, why would they kill off [or possibly take out for awhile] another one of M’s best friends? It doesn’t really make sense to me. You also see a funeral scene, as well. But it could be a vision; Theres also another woman, telling her to choose between love and death, or something to that effect, and shes crying. Now, I don’t know how much she’d cry for Payne. [Even though we’re all in love with him. xD] So my guess, is Jim. I’m hoping she’s able to prevent it though, because in one of the previous shows, where she saves that one guy, I believe he’ll be reincarnated as her son.

Morningglory Says:
I think it would probably be Jim, because he is interacting with Ned and Delia, I paused and rewound the scene over and over again, I realized, that maybe, Jim didn’t actually touch them. Also, Ned, (well let’s face it) is a bit….bigger than everyone. Not only in the shadow but in flesh. But, all my friends are saying that he can’t be dead because her talked to Beth. Well, Beth and Melinda can see ghosts, meaning he could be seen. Plus, have you noticed how often he wears the same clothes? ( I just noticed) I mean like, I could be wrong….
Plus, if that happened then Payne and Melinda would be widows……meaning they could get married, and have the kids that Jim and Kate wanted. So, it would all work out, like when Andrea died.
But I could be wrong.Maybe….

GhostWhisperFan Says:
I just read in the TV guide that it is Jim that is dead and that Payne will be on the show for a while then take a “sabbatical” and then return. I can’t be Payne because CBS would have been stupid to run the “Gary UnMarried” previews and give away that it is indeed Payne. So as TV Guide Said and I believe it is Jim that is dead…. Going to be a interesting season.
Posted on September 18th, 2008 at 7:24 pm
LC Says:
I am not advocating either position (Jim’s death or Payne’s) but I just wanted to point out that near the end of the episode, right after Tom Gordon falls to his death, Melinda runs down the stairs after him. She stands there for a second, and then you see his ghost. It quickly shifts to him looking all skeletal, and he disappears about right when Jim opes the door and rushes in. Right through where Tom’s ghost was standing. That just seems like it could open the way for Tom possessing Jim, and getting revenge on Melinda and her father by harming Jim (or rather forcing Jim to harm himself or even others, since Tom even pointed out that Jim is sworn to help save lives in the hospital after he threatens him).
But it definitely seems like it would either be a possession or an omen of whats to come, especially since the previews came out and her crying over something that just happened, not grieving long term…
Just my humble opinion.

SpiderManFan Says:
I think that Melinda’s Mom is dead because melinda is the only one who was talking to her before and she is not talking to any one else, but on the other hand jim’s back had death of a loved one in latin and you can see the corner of his head by Ned’s arm, so this is very confussing.

ok..so i am lazy and cant be bothered watching the episode again *teehee*
omg but i loved the episode, i must admit i shed a tear or two..anyway moving along
we seen jim at many other times in this episode, or even in the episode before..so did he have a shadow at other times before paul eastman killed him/made him fall to his death
if he did then it could mean that maybe tom has indeed possesed him………..hmm….but i am also going with that omen idea…
but i dont think anyone was dead..because everyone is interacting with each other and can see each other..
anyway i really really really dont want him to die..he needs to have a baby with melinda…coz he wants a baby so bad….aww that would be so cute :D..he cant die..
i know..im such a girl.. *hehe*
ps: if someone is possesed, does it mean that they can see thier reflection in he mirror?..hmm.

i think its for sure gonna be Jim i mean come on for criyng ou loud he was interactindg with Ned but still. and for heavensake did any of you notice that melinda was acting cheerful with hermom, and THe professor Rick Payne. at the time yes she was apparently ignoring her husband Jim because she thought that he was annoying he was fooling around with Ned being silly. But she loves him and he loves her very much it will break her heart if Jim later on in the 7th episode died. iTS NOT THE professor that will die its Jim he dies in the 7th episode in season 4 if you don’t belive me than look it up on the web you’ll find a phto of her crying with her mom by her side calming her down and jim in a far distance watching them. hewouldnt do that if he were alive no he would comfort her so its clear hes the one. thats gonna be gone. hey maybe melinda willhave a better relation ship with her mom .

I don’t think anyone is dead because they’ve made a point of having them all interact with each other. Also, if Jims shadow wasn’t there at all there should be a space between Delia and Neds shadows but they are connected.. Wasn’t there already something about people being ’sucked in’ through that road or something?? Maybe that’s what it stands for.. I love Jim though and so hope they havn’t killed him off

I’ve looked at a few more things and i think it is definately Prof Payne who is dead. When he says it to Melinda she looks at him with more of a look of pity or sadness than as though she is questioning what he is saying.. And also, I found a site with the write ups for the first few episodes of the season and he is only in the first episode and the new character is a psychology teacher/student who ends up being one of the main characters….do they really need 2?? ..Don’t think so..and it makes sense if he is starting his own show and everything..I’m so glad it’s not Jim!!

ok first off, if you’re gunna state something get it right!
1) Even if Payne was/is a ghost, he’d still know how many people where there, GHOSTS CAN SEE PEOPLE!
2) we KNOW it isnt Jim whose dead because he’s not leaving the show.
3) The shadows are screwed if Payne is dead because there would be a gap!
Ok Everyone there seems to make physical contact with each other
-Jim touches Payne when Melinda and her mum are walking towards them
-Jim touches Ned and Delia and is having a conversation with everyone
-Melinda and her mother and linking arms
-Payne is holding Melinda’s hand
so if anyone has died, they screwed up the ending big time

Hey guys Turkey Whisperer here. First of all, you guys need to cut down on your caffeine intake and calm down. lol People are just sharing their own theories, no need to bash them.
Second, there was this article made by EW about Jim dying. You can read all about it here http://turkeywhisperer.com/ghost-whisperer-major-spoiler/tv/09 . This might give us a whole lot of things to discuss before tomorrow’s season premiere.

Whats up with ending tonite? Is Mel in love with Payne or something? She got really emotional, almost as if she would rather be with him instead of Jim….. Or does she know something no one else does?

wodah Says:
Payne must be dead… during the whole episode he only talks to Melinda and the new guy… but the new guy can hear ghosts… also when payne is interacting with the new guy, the new guy keeps saying I hear you… i hear you…. this can only mean that payne is a ghost… melinda cries because she can’t bring herself to let him know and cross him over like she should…

No one is dead quite yet.
the show opens with jim and mel talking about making babies (i suppose you cant do that if you re dead) and at the end prof payne and mel have a large tight hug (also not possible if he were dead)

Alice Says:
Have to say I was surprised with melinda’s reaction with prof payne’s departure. those were more than just “ill miss you ” tears it looked like she was in love with him or something. I can feel smt weird coming…
God forbid the writters to do something as stupid as killing off Jim and having mel involved with payne!

Debbie Says:
Payne is dead but how? He talked to the guy in the archives, melinda stood on his hand when she had a vision and he also discovered that there were only five shadows when there were six of them. Payne can’t see ghost therefore he has to be the missing one and melinda looked so upset as she knows that he has finally figured out that he is dead.

Jim can’t die! It is nice to see a couple that is happily married in a TV series. Good example for couples to see. So, would be great that is not distroyed in the show next week. Would just not be the same with Jim not being in the show! Don’t let him die!

I CANNOT BELIEVE THEY KILLED JIM!!!!! the ratings are going to go down so bad now i cant believe they would do that. i might not even watch it anymore now. but im hoping that she’s just dreaming, cause she did fall asleep, and that shes gonna wake up in the next episode all upset but it turns out it was a dream and everything’s alright, and she can have her baby. ive been waiting for her to get that baby and those retards just cut her off completely. what, do they not want her to have a family? do they WANT her to go emo?? cause im starting to think so. i dont think i have cried that hard for a similar reason in a LONG time.

This is just too much. I have always loved Ghost Whisperer and this is just TOO MUCH! Melinda has done nothing but good, helping the ones still alive and the ones that passed on to go to the light thereby helping the both of them find peace. Now Jim has to die? Okay, sure Melinda will be able to see him, duh… But for how long? Until he too has to leave Melinda and go into the light? Why not just rip her heart out and let her die slowly bleeding out slowly but fatally? THIS IS TOO MUCH. Sorry script writers but this is a dumb move. NO, it is NOT romantic!!! Sure to people that have not gone through something similar it seems so pure and romantic that he will still be with her because she can see the dead… But IT IS NOT THE SAME!!! I lost my love when I was 23. I am 40 now. Do you think the pain has lessened? NO!!! Do I still miss him? YES!!! Do tears help? No. Does it help that he has gone into the light? No. Do I understand that he had to? Of course… But all that will never make up for the hole in my heart that I had to live with every day of my life now… He was to me like Jim is to Melinda… Do the writers even know how much it hurts??? I am so sad, upset and dumbfounded that Ghost Whisperer could turn into something lame like this. Please don’t do this to Melinda. Enough is enough.

If Jim Is left to die, the Ghost Whisperer has lost an entire family of fans. Every show must have a person that is the glue that holds the whole show together, and Jim was that glue. To remove him from the show was a BIG mistake. It was a great joy to see a husband and wife on TV who really loved and enjoyed each other,s company. THis family is no longer watching Ghost Whisperer.

Carol Says:
Surely Jim is not really dead!!! This just spoiled the sho!w for me. Even though I love watching the show, from the beginning. But, this just ruined it all!!! DONT LET JIM DIE! There is still tiime to bring him back. Have Melinda dream this, that it did not really happen!! The fans don’t want this. We want to see them continue to be a happy, in love couple that wants to have a family. There is not enough of this on TV, so why take it away!!! Again, DON’T LET JIM DIE. He was sooooo a part of this show. Not just Melinda. Hope the writers read al lthe blogs about how unhappy the fans are about Jim dieing!!!

Joyce Says:
If Jim is dead - then I’m not watching the show anymore. That spoiled the whole thing for me.
That’s what happens to shows - they get you hooked then they through some bizzare twist into it that totally ruins the whole show. What, Melinda can’t be psychic and happy too?
Get real people. Just because Melinda speaks to dead people doesn’t mean everyone she loves has to die - all at one time. That’s a little far fetched isn’t it?
Has everyone that James VanPraag or John Edwards (the psychic not the politician), or Sylvia Brown love die because they speak to dead people? Hello NO.
This whole thing sucks!!! It’s ruined.

Linners Says:
My husband and I are shocked & saddened by this latest development of Jim dying. Jim truly was the “GLUE” that held the show together. I work at a company of over 400 people and I can tell you none of us that watch the show are very happy about it. I do hope the writers change their minds - or you will have way LESS viewers out there!!!

Carol Says:
This is my favorite show but I am so confused. LOL! Can’t see them letting Jim die. They have talked about it so much, he and melinda, on the show as to what they would do so based on what the underground people said=====I am still confused. LMAO!

its a sign like when melinda had the dreams of the plane crash n that i dont think anyone is dead at the scene just think its a sign to melinda but payne being payne he notices it… and if jim dies in season 4 i will not be happy he is part of what makes the show and the best couple on tv (well 1 of the best) jim understands melinda better than anyone. he better come back other than a ghost…………….

Anna_Poland Says:
yeap, it is true Jim died he is ghost now but his soul will enter into another man - Sam ( a victime of car crash) but Sam/Jim will not remember Melinda because he suffers from amnesia and Melinda will try to get his memory back. Melinda will see Sam/Jim as Jim ( although in one episode she will see Sam/ Jim as SamI know it is complicated; :)) but other people will see Sam/ Jim as Sam only
