Jennifer Love Hewitt Talks Cutbacks on 'Ghost Whisperer'

June 26, 2009

If you think successful shows such as Ghost Whisperer are spared from the runaway economy and the pressure for TV to reduce costs, think again.  The star and co-producer of the CBS sci-fi series Jennifer Love Hewitt revealed in an interview with E! Online that even Ghost Whisperer, which is doing fairly well in the ratings game, need to tighten its belt if it wants to remain afloat.

"We are a special effects show, so some of our special effects stuff has had to be cut in half.  We haven't been able to do any actor raises for season five.  We've had to cut budgets here and there.  They have also been talking about shooting our show on HD to save money."
