Ghost Facers

I have never watched the Ghost Hunters but I really liked the SN spin on it and perhaps the SN spin on ALL reality shows. Every time I think this show is going to "shoot a blank" it just ALWAYS delivers. It was sentimentally sweet using the character "Corbet." Loved how "Sam" talked "Corbet" through his own murder. Sort of reminded me of Joaquin Phoenix & Vince Vaughn in Return to Paradise when "Sheriff" talked "Lewis" through his execution. Damn, what an emotional scene. That Jared sure can act. Can't wait to see the final episodes of SN3 when I'm sure Jensen will blow us all away with his acting abilities. Also can't wait to see the careers these two actors will have post-SN. And the Oscar goes to...
