TV Characters now seeking Psychic Advice

13th May, 2009 - Posted by Abbie x7846

Whenever I turn on the TV lately it seems like another character is consulting a Psychic or Medium. Like most shows, the writers have a tendency to start out using stereotypes due to the entertainment value, but each situation varies, just like the writers and characters that portray them.

For example, on “Rescue Me”, Tommy is skeptical at his initial visit to the psychic, later he finds out that Mike, who recommended the Psychic to him, had told the Psychic quite a bit of revealing information about Tommy prior to his visit. It is at this point, one would think that she may not be what she states she is, only when Tommy visits her to tell her that he believes she is not authentic, she reveals information that only Tommy would know. Therefore proving she is in touch with the other side.

greysOn “Grey’s Anatomy”, Izzie’s mom called her Psychic to see if Izzie would survive her Melanoma Diagnosis. The Psychic stated that Izzie would live, although, we, the audience, know that the diagnosis is grim. As a fan, I believe the wonderful writers took it upon themselves to give us some hope that Izzie could live, thereby voiding much of what is being written in the tabloids concerning Katherine Heigl, her career decisions and whether or not she is leaving Grey’s Anatomy. Although, if you preview next week, we see that it is possible that Denny is back to walk her through to the other side. I am anxious to see how the writers handle this in upcoming episodes.

When I was just a tad younger, “Beverly Hills 90210″ was all the rage. There is a new version for today’s generation just called “90210″ airing in prime time now. While I haven’t gotten into this version, a friend told me about a recent episode that aired featuring a psychic. Donna (yes, the same Donna from the first version of the show) had returned home. She was looking for space to rent for her new clothing store. She was hesitant about moving back, so she went to see a psychic with Kelly (yes the same Kelly) for advice. Donna is told to expect a sign while Kelly will meet a man with a six pack. Sure enough, later in the episode while out at a club to unwind, Donna finds a “For Lease” sign across the street for her store and Kelly does meet a man with a six pack… a six pack of beer in his hands, but hey that counts, right?

meduimThen there is my favorite TV show, “Medium” I feel it shows a true American family living with, learning by and acknowledging the gifts they hold. It shows that interpretation and understanding is crucial and that even gifted psychics have families, lives, friends, jobs, financial and health issues… everything that comes with living life, gifted or not.

I must admit that I do get frustrated by the stereotypical, old-fashioned portrayal of Psychics as someone who watches your eyes and face, asks leading questions or somehow investigates you before talking to you. I can say that there are those citizens, who may take advantage of others, but they are not Psychics and are revealed as so. Spirit makes sure of that. Just like there are great mechanics, hairstylists, and others who state they are talented, we soon learn different. That is why I love Psychic Source and checked them out for two years prior to applying. The application and interview process is so in-depth and thorough, that there is nothing stereotypical about them. As a reader on the line, we cannot see your face, we can’t investigate you, and we cannot do anything than follow our spiritual gifts to answer you as we are guided.

We are not TV characters, there is no one writing the next scene. We are not stereotypical. I am proud that Psychic Source took it upon themselves to take Psychic Readings to a new level and have a proven, twenty year track record. I take my gift seriously; I am honored and humbled by it. I never take it or my clients for granted and I am sure my fellow readers feel the same.

hi abbie,
it was great of you to group these shows together. i love “rescue me” and i was on the edge of my seat just waiting for the psychic to do her thing.
she did it well – i have not watched this weeks show yet… hopefull there will be more of her. she was the “profiler” on her own show…
also another mystic show was “LIFE ON MARS” whose TV karma only lasted one season. in my buddhist e-group one of the topics is reincarnation which brought up the question if we can go into the past – instead of the just the future? “life on mars” went there from 2008 to 1973.
and my all time favorite is “saving grace” it is just smart TV. gotta love Earl.
in more and more main stream TV there are hints and those who dive right in to the mystical psychic realm. loving it!

Rescue Me is my favorite show right now!! I thought it was interesting in those 2 episodes how both guys were using the services of a psychic. It just goes to show you that more and more people in society today are utilizing the powers and gifts of psychics. It was also interesting how at first Tommy was referring to her as a “doctor” and later was not ashamed to start telling his friends he was going to an appointment with a psychic. He had many doubts at first when he went to see her but later found out she was truly authentic! Very cool.
