What do we think of the Long Island Medium?

The afterlife must be terribly dull if the dead are willing to associate themselves with her. You'd think they would have more self-respect.

Annoying as Fuck

I like her. I highly doubt she has powers like she says

I always assume these cold reader grifters are sociopaths, at least to a point. Imagine what kind of person can with a straight face pretend to talk to a person's loved one, and obviously take money for it.

She's a classic con artist preying on the dumb, gullible, and desperate. She belongs in jail.

it brings some people happiness. No better or worse than junk food or reality tv

New York chic.

She frequently says "thank you for letting me die with dignity and grace." How can 10 different dead people all say the same exact phrase?

She and Lar are separated and he lives in LA with a small dog while wearing ripped jeans. He may be exploring his bi side.

That's some bumpit!

Her hair and nails look ridiculous.

I've got one of her books and although she has gone show business I believe that there is something a tad supernatural about what she does. It's an unusual world out there.

She and her husband are so Long Island it hurts! She seems a LOT more authentic than that other Long Island medium - John Edwards.

I actually think the Tyler gay guy is the best so far. I still dont like the idea of all these dead people around all the time watching you all the time. My life is NOT that interesting.

Theresa Caputo is 50ish and has a really 'out there' personality.

Do you guys actually believe in the afterlife? Not necessarily ghosts but something after death? I do

R12 Tyler Henry. He seems like a sweetheart. And yes, he's openly gay. I saw his new book in a big bookstore the other day and might buy it.

Her nails are repugnant.

R14 Yes. I believe in the afterlife. There's much more to life than meets the eye. This is not the end. We are part of a much grander scheme.

But, Mulder, I'm a scientist! There's no such thing as afterlife!

That's a man, baby!

She's a hag

Love the spoofs.

Theresa Laputa

Does she still think it's 1995?

I do believe genuine psychics exist, but that they're extremely rare. Like 1 in a billion.

She is grief vampire.

I always thought she was a hack and over the top, but for some reason last Sunday night I was flipping channels and watched her show. It was very emotional for the guests that she had on - this episode had on her neighbors who had lost their young daughter. Of course I don't think the daughter was talking to Theresa, but it was nice to see how comforting it was for the family to have some sort of closure. This dark and cold soul shed a little tear.

OMG, r26. Her neighbours? Who knows everything about???

All mediums are fake. Go to YouTube, and you will find a host of videos about ALL the familiar mediums. They all use the same mental maneuverings. There has been no credible or scientific affirmation of the afterlife, nor mediums who can talk with the dead.

Not to mention she's on an overly produced reality show. In a live setting, she was exposed.

Grifters gotta grift.

Thanks, Larry, r30.

We don't.

Anything spiritual or paranormal receives negative, basic insults from the majority of DL's non-believing, atheist, cynical, wounded posters.

I hate her guidette blonde helmet hairdo!

Larry is totally the typical married muscle LI guy that gets blowjobs from local guys on the side.

I was surprised that they separated. They always seemed compatible, and a family that actually liked spending time together.

Larry's home life back in Long Island seems more appealing than starting over as a single guy in LA in 2018.

Yeah, anyone have gossip about Larry? I stopped watching a few years ago but I was surprised they broke up.

Larry is now living as a West Hollywood muscle daddy queen.

oh Larry...

Larry is ugly and will strike out in LA BIG TIME.

just hangin' out

Drives me crazy when she says things like, "Things aren't so good between Larry and I" or "It was a surprise party thrown for Larry and I."

Larry jr & Larry sr

I believe actual mediums exist, but I don't believe in being able to switch it on and off whenever you like it or a client asks you to.

I had an assistant who had similar abilities she could communicate with the dead. She always said she wished she never had this ability because sometimes it scared the crap out of her. We worked in an old building that had 2 ghosts in it there was one on the 4th floor where we had our offices that one was playful and harmless. She said there was another one on the third floor she wouldn't say much about it but would never go onto that floor alone.

Someone should tell her it's not the 1960's and bouffant hairstyles are not in style.

Well, duh. That's her stage act persona / public image. It makes her look silly and fun and less sinister, serious, or spooky. She is an entertainer after all.

That cock that comes through the gloryhole may very well be Larry's. Enjoy.

She may be helping people with grief, but it is at the expense of truth. No one has that right. She preys on those who are in desperate need of comforting, but she does it for money and her own glorification. She is the most disgusting form of human refuse. The idea that someone can speak with the dead is ridiculous, and she has elevated it into what she believes is an art form. Gullibility is what sustains people of her ilk.

Correct, r49. I would look at Larry, the husband on her reality shows and he looked so uncomfortable. She wasn't the nicest or most sensitive person to him.

It makes me sad to see there are people here on this board who have even the slightest belief that this broad (and any other medium) is actually anything but a sham. I don't want to thing there are people who post here who are that stupid.

..........

I am actually surprised she hasn't been sued.

Sorry to sound so bloody base, but I have always wondered how "ladies" wipe their bums properly with those nails. They resemble tiny shovels at the tips. Gruesome really.

Somewhat off Topic, r54.

she did an episode with eric balfour, so she can’t be ALL bad.

My daughter could see and communicate with ghosts as child. She spoke to one of my dead grandmothers, with a confirmation that stunned me. She lost the ability around age 5.

I never treated anything she said as unusual or surprising to me, which probably is why she was so open about it. She could speak well, like an adult from about 2 1/2 so it wasn’t me imposing my perspectives. Neither of my sons had this ability.

R55 Not drinking tonight you shrew. Not off topic at all as others posters brought up her nails first. You're off topic and impertinent however. YOU are a stalker troll who has put this drinkie/booze allusion after several of my posts. I'm going to F/F and block you, as well as your other posts straight away, I do hope others follow suit.

where is r41's pic from? kind of scandalous. I think he truly is "EXPLORING THE OTHER SIDE" - BI!!!!!!!

The husband looks malnourished and unnaturally orange in r43's pic.

Is he really Weho queen now?

R59, from here:

R59, he’s with Sal from the Howard Stern show. Just a couple of friends away on a weekend trip together.

Back at cha, r58.

R1 - Sums it up.

She is a fraud. I would still sniff Larry Junior's no-no, however....

She's rocking a relaxed Patsy Stone style.

R12 and R15: I like Tyler better as well. When Teresa does large group readings (as she has at a casino resort near me), she tells people that messages received by other patrons might be "parallel" to ones you would hope to receive from a deceased loved one as well. She lost me with that; it seems like a way to simply keep everybody's hope alive and have the rest of the audience not feel shitty for shelling out so much money and not being fortunate enough to get a message.

That said, I think she's got [italic]something.[/italic] I thought John Edward had something, too (and I still do). Tyler seems to only read people one-on-one (at this point) and that somehow increases my belief in him.

I'm surprised more people don't know someone with psychic abilities. I've met at least three or four people in my life who were dead on about some things about me, things that didn't make sense to me for years. It's not that unbelievable .

r68, mediums are quick to say they are not psychics.

Fraud

scam artist

She is in contact with the recently deceased mother of a despondent Marine.

She has a message from his mother especially for the son:

"Mom says to tell you: "Thank you for your service."

"THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE!"

I had an out of body experience as a kid. I'm pretty confident in what I experienced. That has made me open minded to the idea of psychics or mediums. I still don't think it works on and off like she portrays

Does she have a pet, a guido dog?

As others have mentioned, why is it that ‘spirit’ can relay specific comments to share (like the inane ‘Thank you for your service’) but can’t reveal their name beyond an initial (‘I’m seeing an older woman, first name begins with an M or a J?’)

Larry needs to get into Daddy porn

Larry Jr. would get tho.

UNFFF

Anything is possible, but so is the ability to read minds.

I dont know how THAT works, but have done it myself so Im not sure if Tyler and Capuoto are just doing that.

To not believe in communication beyond is limiting.

Have caught her show a couple of times while channel-surfing. Theresa has always seemed likable. Her son has always been a cutie.

R77 who is he with? Kendra Wilkinson?

[quote]who is he with? Kendra Wilkinson?

it's his gf Leah, they've been together for quite some time

Caputo is such a fraud. She says things like this to a CROWD of people:

Anyone here recently lost a mother?

Silence in the audience

A father? Anyone here recently lost a father figure?

Silence in the audience

A brother?

A woman pipes up and says, well, my sister just lost her nephew.

Sometimes I can see the dead, but I can't talk to them unless they come to me when I'm sleeping. My brother was visited by many spirits. My grandmother used to talk to spirits. I also have many friends who are psychic. I think it often runs in families and you naturally meet people who are open to it. Often people tell me they are sceptics, but after a while they'll say, well, thus weird thing happened once, or my grandfather saw this once.

R75, I think she has mentioned before that spirits don't actually communicate in words (since spirits don't have voice boxes), but they convey their messages through feelings, emotions, and symbols. I'm guessing that when a spirit's presence isn't very strong, she has trouble getting a clear picture, so she has to work a little harder at deciphering and translating the intangible into words.

Jesus, the kinda makes sense actually R84.
