I was enormously disappointed in this episode. Ryan let me down with how he handled whomever it was that was talking about the “giggling”. Further, he condemns his team for “unprofessionalism”, yet his reproaching of his team was far more unprofessional:

Nicely said!

I Think that "Mr. Director's Log" has let the show go to his head. I watch and keep waiting for something to happen, yet episode after episode, NOTHING!! Maybe the team should go to some of the places that TAPS investigates.Then maybe between the two,we'll actually see something on tape. So far I have't seen any evidence other than a faint sound every now and then, I am a believer and would like to see some action. Nevertheless, I'll still watch, afterall Katrina is soft on the eyes and seems down to earth.

I think there are a lot of people out there that have had these experiences but are reluctant to discuss it. There are always the dark shadows out of the corners of your eyes and creepy sounds that you can't explain. It seems that it hit's some harder than others.

Ryan needs to get over himself.  His ego is too big to be in this field. Teaching the team a lesson by jeopardisi

ng their safty was not professional. The team had NO idea what was to be expected. Nervous giggles are not inappropriate when your team leader is being a drama queen and not forth comming with the info.

One of these days if Ryan doesn't check his ego, he will be attacked by a spirit that Will devastate his psyche. It will affect his mental stability which obviously has already been compromised. Dude take your meds and check your ego!!!

Who is anyone to judge a person for how they react in a very personal and private experience they have had?  I suppose if we all just send in a list of appropriate emotions and reactions to have, then everyone would be satisfied?  How remarkable we as a people have been in this exact situation before and would have responded perfectly to appease everyone! 

Of course, let's not address the incomprehensible courage this type of journey would take, just to put one foot in front of the other and walk forward toward your very real and personal fear.  I believe this team has obviously a great love and trust for one another and quite frankly, we don't know what conversations took place after the fact, nor should we. Because this is considered a "reality show" we should be privy to any and all conversations even though this is truly none of our business?  We saw the show, and saw what we were supposed to see, that is all.  Sensationalism be damed.

The thing I appreciate most about this particular show is I don't know the backstage drama or personal issues of each person.  I don't want to and certainly don't need to. I fully and completely appreciate the concept of the show as it is and the message it may send to individuals if they are so deemed to listen.

Apologize or don't apologize Ryan, that is for you to decide. The relationship you have with your team is yours.

Perhaps it is the fact that Paranormal State has become enormously successful.  Perhaps it is because Ryan Buell, at an exceedingly young age, has gained celebrity, and some bit of credibility, in the paranormal investigative field.  I don't have to speculate when I say that his berating his team for being "unprofessional"...and, as he termed it, "...acting stupid...", is, for me, the height of bad manners, and ingratitude.

Whatever he thinks, Mr. Buell wouldn't be where he is today, were it not for his diehard colleagues, and support-staff.  And, to publicly berate and chide his friends, simply because they kept the mood "light", and relaxed, makes me believe that Mr. Buell has come to take himself far to seriously, and has developed some very unattractive arrogance, on his way to Success!

I would have thought that coming into close-contact with The Other Side would have made Mr. Buell that much more appreciative of Life, in our dimension! And, that those who have labored just as diligently as he has are just as deserving of consideration and respect as he feels is his due!

If last night's "performance"...that pathetic exhibition of petulance and contempt for others' feelings, is a harbinger of things to come, on Paranormal State...then, maybe I will have to rethink whether Mr. Buell's presentations are worth my time!  For, it appears, that, along with a lot of Americans' bad taste, and lack of delicacy...Mr. Buell may think himself ABOVE kindness, and effective interpersonal interactions,

Apologies are, indeed, very much in order, based upon his atrocious lack of manners, on "Darkness Falls"! 

Come now, Mr. Buell:  The essence of "greatness" doesn't emanate from a no-name young man, who suddenly popped-up with a television series!  I'd say that you are in desperate need of a "reality check"!  And, I am certain that you have heard that old adage, of "...being kind to those whom you meet 'on the way, up...for they are the same people whom you will meet, on the way, down'"!

I was surprised by his response to them and wondered if they weren't getting along for whatever reason. It was very 'un-Ryan' like - but so were a lot of other things in the show: Increased cursing, his outburst, increased drama throughout. I liked it better how it was before. Who is telling them to drama it up? Bah! Keep it real please.

Ryan, I am very sadened to see PRS falling at an alarming rate in its actuality of Paranormal Activity. Last night January 12, 2010 I watched PRS investigate WV Penn and was excited after seeing Serge get spooked with noises, as it was the first in a long time of sequential activity that made me get very interested and think that you were turning a corner and getting more investigative in your findings. This I would later find out was short lived. See Ryan, you made a big hype about the wardens tower and your findings to get upset enough to threaten your staff with their dismissal and took it upon yourself to even make a comment about their lack of Professionalism. This made me feel that your more about Ryan Buell and your own self image as well as a tonne of Drama. Please don't read this and feel that I am attacking you personally I am just stating that you need to focus more on Paranormal Activity as apposed to yourself. Please start to show Paranormal activity as apposed to just talking about it moving forward. I started with you when PRS first aired on A&E and was very excited as well as a strong believer in the Paranormal to the extent that I was afraid to be in the dark; However, after following your show and seeing the countless times of building up the hype and being let down I am now more a skeptic and slowly going towards a non-believer even though I experienced Paranormal activity when I was younger with a "Demonic Woman" watching me through a mirror. I can thank you now that I am not afraid of the dark anymore, being almost 30 I shouldn't be anyways, but from following your show and not missing an episode it just made it a quick and easy transition. Thank you again Ryan Buell for allowing me into your investigations of, from what I have seen, countless Americans homes just to look at their decor and hear about their experiences as I have seen nothing substantial to say "yup that's Paranormal."

IM WANTING TO KNOW WHY RYAN HASNT REPONDED TO MARK FROM THAT SHOW WHATS HE HIDING THERE????
