EXCLUSIVE: Ghost Whisperer executive producers Kim Moses and Ian Sander are staying put at their long-time TV home, ABC Studios, and are staying close to the supernatural powers brand of their CBS series with two new ghost-themed projects in the works at ABC, reality series Ghost Town and drama Ghost World. Moses and Sander have inked a new one-year overall deal with ABC Studios where their Sander/Moses Prods. has been based since 2004. During their first one-year deal there, the duo developed Ghost Whisperer with creator John Gray. They executive produced the series starring Jennifer Love Hewitt for 5 seasons, until its unexpected cancellation by CBS in May and unsuccessful transfer to ABC.
Sander and Moses’ reality project, tentatively called Ghost Town, is in development at ABC Media Prods., the ABC Daytime production entity. The half-hour show would feature well-known psychic Maureen Hancock as she goes “coast to coast calling up the past, seeing the future, and contacting spirits.” Hancock travels the country in real-life, doing Postcards From Heaven shows.
Additionally, Moses and Sander are behind Ghost World, one of the 5 projects on ABC’s off-cycle drama development slate. Written by What About Brian creator Dana Stevens and produced by ABC Studios, it is about a ghost on the other side who helps an ambitious young female homicide detective solve crimes in the hopes of uncovering clues to his own life and death and centers on the mysterious, intense and sometimes infuriating connection the two feel toward each other. Sander/Moses is repped by UTA and attorney Brad Small.

Isnt it time for some casting on any of those 5 projects? When are they aiming to shoot them? Any update on Edgar Floats?
This sucks!! renew Ghost Whisperer!! they are only trying to re-create the success of Ghost Whisperer! they should just renew it. All GW fans are not gonna tune into these new show just cuz it says “from the creators of Ghost Whisperer” we want Ghost Whisperer back!! please listen to the fans!
The difference is that Jennifer Love Hewett is an actress, and Maureen Hancock is not. Maureen’s “Ghost Town” is REAL. I have been to many of her shows, and it is a GIFT that she has. Check out Maureen Hancock’s website for validity! She deserves any wonderful things that come her way…she has helped thousands of people get past grief and feelings of loss!
Maureen Hancock is a well known friend of the family….she is amazing. As a fan of Ghost Whisperer i know what you mean,it does suck it went off the air, however this is REAL and she is AMAZING. Although it is not GW it is a show that will be very sucessful and better than the “ghost world” you think you know.
PLEASE BRING GHOSTWHISPER BACK ON I MISS IT ALOT COULD WAIT TO get home from work onfridays to watch it now life boring to me and ilove medium too the two best shows on t,v.why did they mess up good shows and put something that not worth watching on now. PLEASE LISTEN TO THE FANS BRING MEDIUM.GHOSTWHISPER BACK ON t.V.PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEE!!thank you
You cannot have enough ghost tv shows. Ghosts ghosts ghosts ghosts ghosts — I love ‘em!
BOOOoooOOOOoooo
Coast to coast ghost? Count me in!
GHOST TOWN IS WHERE I WANT TO LIVE BABY!!!!!
Please do not take Ghost Whisperer off tha air!!! I watch it every Friday Night and Love The Show. I look forward to the end of the week just to watch my favorite show! I didnt even know they were thinking of taking it off till someone told me and I could not believe it.
It was canceled weeks ago – it’s gone
I agree, put the REAL Ghost Whisperer back on the air. It was a great way to relax and enjoy a show at the end of my week. I would love to see it come back!
REAL ghost whisperer, are you kidding. Some of the plots were way too far reaching. It will be a breath of fresh air to have an actual medium with real live stories. Way to go Maureen.
Why don’t they cancel some stupid reality shows and leave the good shows like ghost whisperer alone.
Ghost Town is the best friggin reality tv show u will ever watch. Forget GW.
We want Ghost Whisperer back on our screens!! That might be a new show for them BUT IT IS NOT A REPLACEMENT for GW.
PLEASE listen to the millions of fans who have contacted you about the biggest mistake ever in television to cancel a brilliant show.
Kim and Ian should fight harder and nuture something good like GW when they already have it, not let it go and disregard all the viewers who are pleading to get GW back on our screens.
Ghost Whisperer is the best show – we want to see a Season 6.
I agree with Angel. Stick with something that people already love and build on it.
PLEASE bring Ghost Whisperer back!!!! Why in the world would they keep Medium and cancel Ghost Whisperer???? It makes no sense!!!
Becuase CBS Studios owns 100% of MEDIUM and gets all the profits,while they only half-owned GHOST WHISPER and only got half the profits.
So while GHOST WHISPER got slighty higher raitings, dollar for dollar, MEDIUM was the more valuable show.
I understand how upset a lot of people are about the cancelation of the Ghost Whisperer. It was a great show and enjoyed a long run. However, i think all of the GW fans are going to find a new favorite in the Ghost Town production. Of course I have not previewed any scenes or ideas, but I have personally experienced the extraordinary talent of Maureen Hancock on several occasions. She is fabulous! You will be shocked and amazed by her abilities which, unlike GW, are unscripted and unpredictable. I believe every one of you will thoroughly enjoy the humorous spin that Maureen brings to such heavy moments to lighten up the mood of the event and brighten the world of those of us lucky enough to receive guidance and affirmations through her readings from our loved ones who have passed. Jennifer Love Hewitt is a good actress, but Maureen is the real deal. I’m excited to see the new show!
Yeah for Maureen Hancock and Ghost Town! My personal experience with her witnessed her wonderful gift of communication with those on the other side. She is awesome.
I will miss Ghost Whisperer – one of my favorite shows….
How very exciting! I had heard about Maureen and finally went to have a reading from her. She is unbelievable! She is hilarious and heart warming and not to mention the real deal! This will be a great show!!!!!!
People that love the Ghost Whisperer will also love Maureen Hancock..She is in fact a true ghost whisperer…She has the true ability to speak to our family or friends that have passed and uses her ability to help others. I am thrilled she will have a chance to travel the world and show help so many. Before anyone says no more reality…watch it! And I also vote to keep Ghost Whisperer
)
wonderful Maureen..thats amazing..so looking foward to this
I have been read by the real Ghost Whisperer Maureen Hancock. Trust me, she’s awesome! I do love Ghost Whisperer the show though, who doesn’t? You’ll LOVE Maureen too though.
I went to satellite to get rid of the TV ghosts but now they’re coming back bigger and badder than ever. Aye Papi!!
Love Ghost Whisperer -YES bring it back -listen to the fans!!
So is this why the Producers didn’t try any other Network for Ghost Whisperer? I wondered why they gave up after ABC. They are selfish and don’t care about the show, Ghost Whisperer that made them any sort of name in Hollywood. The show was pushed aside for their new “Ghost” show. Do they think because they producer it and it has a Ghost theme we will watch it? No, NOT, Never! Ghost Whisperer is special. It has heart and soul. It has Jennifer Love Hewitt and David Conrad. The best. Sorry but, I feel betrayed by Kim Moses and Ian Sander. I hope they’re reading this. We want our Ghost Whisperer Back!
To All the Ghost Whisperer’s Fans: YOU WILL BE BLOWN AWAY BY MAUREEN HANCOCK. I loved the show as well believe me! But.. The Show Post Cards From Heaven will MAKE YOU CRY, MAKE YOU LAUGH….IT WILL GIVE YOU BACK YOUR FAITH IN HUMANITY. Please dont judge until you see the MIRACLE OF A WOMAN…A Regular Woman with a ABSOLUTE GIFT TO HEAL. It is not just a reality show believe me people you will never be the same again. THERE IS A PLACE AFTER THIS LIFE. I was a non believer.. and NOW…… MY LIFE HAS CHANGED FOR EVER BECAUSE OF THIS WOMAN!!!…. THERE IS NOTHING ON TV THAT CAN COMPARE TO THE EMOTION AND HEALING THIS SHOW WILL BRING TO ALL!
SHE is also called “THE COMEDIAN MEDIUM” SHE TAKES YOU TO A PLACE YOU HAVE NEVER BEEN. I dont know a better feeling. A LOYAL FAN FOREVER LOLA XXXOOO!!!!
I love GW too, an all time favorite. But I have seen Maureen Hancock live, and let me tell you, its spell binding. AND REAL, the REAL DEAL!!! She will give you goosebumps,seriously, AND if you think just bc its on tv that they may doctor it up, noooo way..I was sitting next to her while she had everyone in tears about a loved ones son who passed suddenly. A daughter who lost her father to a suiside and so on..She really gives us hope that our loved ones are still with us in spirit.. You cant compare reality to scripted.

After reading these reviews of Maureen Hancock, I am very excited about the fall’s new shows! Wow, it does sound exciting and very interesting. I would love to see either CBS or ABC bring back Ghost Whisperer though. That was such a unique show. It had it all: romance, the paranormal, comedy, mystery, and drama.
Wow, what variety. BARF.
Bring back Ghost Whisperer! Please!!!!
I can’t wait until Maureen Hancock gets on the show.She will make you laugh and make you cry in the matter of seconds. I have been to a couple of her readings and I could have sat there for 2 days straight. It was amazing the accuracy with which she connected with the people from the other side. Thumbs up for ghost town..you won’t be sorry!!
It is good that Maureen will be on television, but it is not Ghost Whisperer, it is like a reality psychic show. That is fantastic for her and it might be a popular show, but it is not the same. There is no reason why Kim and Ian should not keep producing Ghost Whisperer. It seems they have betrayed the fans, the cast and crew by dropping it so quickly without another thought and jumping on this bandwagon. That is shocking. We want GW back on our screens because it is a brilliant and original show, with plenty of drama, love, mystery, mythologies and the onscreen chemistry between JLH and DC was unbeatable. This new show will be totally different and we might like it for what it is, but it is not GW. We can only keep campaigning for the networks CBS/ABC to reconsider their appaling decision to cancel the show. We LOVE GW and it deserves to have at least another season to address all the issues and unfinished stories.
