Melinda & Her Gordonzolas

As you know by now, I've decided to jump into Season 5 of Ghost Whisperer and this season is actually really great, reminiscent of the earlier seasons before all the psychotic drama and underground cities and epic bouts of body-switching all over the place. That gets confusing, believe me, and they don't even fire actors, they just pile on new ones so that when the characters with new bodies look into the mirror, they still see their original selves, played by the original actors, so I guess if you're one of those actors, you'd be like, Oh I used to play so-and-so on ghost whisperer, but now I play the reflection of so-and-so and yes that is my full-time job. But lets get back to my original point here. Season 5 has none of that bullshizz and is hence SO GREAT, like old times again!

And yet, the tiny little crazy things that make this series so special are still right there in our faces, and I can't complain because they are ultimately what makes this show so awesome.

Firstly, this is how Melinda wakes up every morning.


In full glittery make-up and flappy eyelashes!!!

We totally understand that her midnight predicaments attached to her ghost-whispering-duties (most nights, she's awoken by benevolent spirits who have weird working hours and choose to give her clues while she's in her dazzling array of nightgowns, which btw mostly look like highly-abbreviated and completely transparent versions of ballgowns you'd normally see at the orchestra) but really Melinda, you don't have to further encourage their visits by greeting them so welcomingly with your thickest make-up face.

Also, are you an antique store owner, or disco bartender?



Or, are you perhaps just taking the afternoon off to fight the battle at Mordor?



But of course, our Melinda is the consummate professional. For business meetings, she dutifully brings out the twins for some airtime.



BAM!



Wait, do I see 2 straps on this thing?



Is that... a latex bra?? Haha, of course! WHY NOT, RIGHT!



So its not over. Next she had this huge conference event thingy she has to go to. And I thought, okay finally she wears something appropriate and kinda normal, right.



But actually no!



Not at all!



I'll admit that does looks kinda yummy, in an 'oooh-isit-underwear-isit-outerwear-can-i-tug-it-and-watch-it-snap' kinda way.. Some guys might think that way, I'm just saying, not me. I mean, can you imagine how naughty your girlfriend would be if she wears that kind of thing? I bet she'll let you try anything! But on the other hand, its also so crazy!!!

Oh Melinda! Why do people around you act like its perfectly normal that you're wearing these crazy things! Are your ghosts EVER confused by your outfits? Does the camera fast-forward that 10-second pause when they try to figure out what the hell you're wearing before they start to speak to you about their afterlife problems? Do they sometimes die all over again out of SHEER DENIAL of the madness that is happening all over your body? Haha oh how I love this show!
