Ghost Whisperer builds episode around standup comic

Ghost Whisperer, the CBS drama starring Jennifer Love Hewitt (recently ranked the sixth sexiest woman in HDTV), will feature a plot on this Friday night’s episode based on a dead comedian, entitled “Dead Comedian.” Says the synopsis:

Melinda, out for an evening of comedy and to support Andrea at open mike night, encounters a dead comic who makes it clear: nothing is spookier than the twisted humor of ghosts who refuse to cross over. If you love comedy and terror this is the night of your life!

Indeed! The Female Half of the Staff speculates that the ghost comic terrifies his victims by muttering “I normally headline!” We may have to set the VCR.
