Ghost Files (2022– )
8/10
A Strong Predecessor to BFU
21 October 2022
The show is a great follow-up to its predecessor, BuzzFeed Unsolved: Supernatural, and deals with the subject with a balance of seriousness and comedy.

The show is much more creatively fulfilling than BFU, with clearly a high production value and much more passion behind it.

The boys seem to enjoy making this show much more than the last and that's great. We also see there friendship and dynamic in a much more real and better sense - neither is playing the over the top naïve believer or stubborn denier, they seem to understand each others points much more than before.

My one criticism is how Ryan's personality seems to be lost to this new manufactured persona of a man who seems clinically insane and does a random, maniacal, high pitched laugh that seems more at home in kids' paranormal parody videos.

Hopefully this is a slight kink that can be ironed out for season 2 - it doesn't make the show unwatchable but as it happens in the solo explorations at the end, it does make the endings much more skippable.
