    ABC has a house style, and this workmanlike execution of that style pretty much derails this drama. Many interior scenes are over-lit and thus not spooky, and there’s just a blandness in the casting and the production design that does nothing to help The Whispers build up the kind of mysterious atmosphere it needs to work.

    Elements like design, atmosphere, casting--the things that produce tension beyond concept--are absent. And Rabe is a surprisingly ineffective lead, although it is mostly due to the horrendous dialogue she’s been given.

    I got so fed up last night watching this weeks episode that i shut it off 3/4 through and took the series off my DVR.
    Since the beginning of time, stories have involved the poor decision making of some of the characters to move plot line, but "The Whispers" writers have gone with the interesting choice of having ALL their characters make bad decisions constantly. It makes the cast of Jackass look like Rhodes scholars.
    I wanted to like the show, but it was taking too much energy to do so.
    the one guy has cool tattoos.

    so long.
