Theresa Caputo talks Season 3 of “Long Island Medium”

August 31, 2012 Barb Oates

Theresa Caputo, the famed medium who is the center of the successfully moving and always-shocking series Long Island Medium, returns for a third season on TLC beginning Sunday, Sept. 9 at 9pm ET/PT. Since the series debuted just over a year ago Caputo has become a household name making regular appearances on late night talk shows and recently being featured in Priceline’s latest TV spots. Caputo’s shock-and-awe approach — although not always deliberate — to connecting spirits with their loved ones (be it grocery stores, bowling alleys, restaurants, wherever — whether you want to connect or not) has stretched her […]

Priceline taps Long Island Medium Theresa Caputo for ads

July 25, 2012 Barb Oates

Looks like priceline.com has really buried William Shatner, as their most recent Priceline Theresa Caputo commercial features Long Island Medium Theresa Caputo contacting the famed Negotiator’s spirit. Although Shatner’s supposedly still under contract with Priceline, his commercial character the Negotiator met his demise earlier this year in the commercial “Last Deal,” when the tour bus he was riding on fell off a bridge, crashing and burning. The most recent Priceline ads feature psychic medium Caputo doing a reading for the Priceline couple (the hilarious and long-running husband and wife characters) who survived the bus tragedy, where she connects with the […]

“Long Island Medium” recap of “Uneasy” and “Spirit and the City”

May 8, 2012 Barb Oates

Bring in the skeptics. TLC’s Long Island Medium Theresa Caputo was doing a live, in-person interview for a local radio show, when she was greeted with an awkward surprise in Sunday’s episode “Uneasy.” Steve and Leeana from Long Island’s KJOY 98.3 Morning Show welcomed in to the studio a group of eight skeptics who lined up like a firing squad eager to call out Caputo as a fake. “No matter what, there’s always going to be someone who tries to prove it’s not real,” Caputo says. But Caputo was armed and dangerous as spirits were in the KJOY house. “Did […]

“Long Island Medium” recap of “Bellies and Babies” episode

April 30, 2012 Barb Oates

Only two episodes left until the end of Season 2 for TLC’s hugely popular Long Island Medium. Last night’s episode, Bellies & Babies, Episode 11, was most unusual, as cameras followed Theresa Caputo to a baby shower where an unexpected mom-to-be and her closest friends and family were gathered, but instead of playing traditional shower games they were greeted with a surprise visit from Theresa. Prior to going to the shower, Theresa was a bit apprehensive, not knowing if her appearance and/or any connections she might make would be welcomed, but the guests appeared to be entertained by Theresa’s bold […]

“Long Island Medium” recap of “Long Island Romance” episode

April 23, 2012 Barb Oates

You would think after being together for over 15 years, Larry Caputo would have picked up on a few signs on how to read his wife, but that clearly wasn’t the case in last night’s episode, “Long Island Romance.” While Theresa might have been looking for some new bling for Valentine’s Day, she never saw this one coming. After failed attempts at making a last-minute dinner reservation at just about any restaurant within like 100 miles of their home, Larry turns to the kids for Valentine’s Day ideas. Shockingly, he actually takes his son’s suggestion — that a night out […]

February 3, 2012 Barb Oates

Last fall TLC introduced TV viewers to Theresa Caputo, a New York mother and medium who connects her clients — and, well, really anyone she might run into whether they want to hear it or not — with the spirits of their dead relatives or friends. Her reality series, Long Island Medium, averaged 1.3 million viewers in its first nine-episode run and quickly captured the attention and emails of many needy viewers looking to find closure to their personal grieving. EXTRA: HOW TO CONTACT THERESA CAPUTO Caputo tells us life has changed somewhat since the launch of her show. “My […]

How to contact Theresa Caputo, star of TLC’s “Long Island Medium”

September 23, 2011 Barb Oates

Theresa Caputo, the star of TLC’s series Long Island Medium, says she was 28 when she was first introduced to the possibility that she was a medium. It took another five years for her to actually accept her gift. “There’s a big difference from when I accepted it to who am I?” Caputo told us. She said she struggled with feeling, “I’m no different than anybody else. Why was I chosen to do this? Why is this my journey?” The aftermath of 9/11 left her with clarity and a feeling of purpose for what she calls her role in the […]

“Long Island Medium” Theresa Caputo talks to my dead mother, for real

September 23, 2011 Barb Oates

I was about 15 minutes into my conversation with medium Theresa Caputo about her new TLC series Long Island Medium when my mom decided to show up. Caputo interrupts my questioning with, “You’ve lost a lot of loved ones.” I disagree, saying “I wouldn’t say a lot, but a few, yeah.” She confidently asks, “Is your mom departed?” “OK, that’s weird,” I think. After all, most people my age still have their mothers, so she really took a long shot throwing that one out there. But, I acknowledge that my mother is indeed deceased. Caputo goes on to explain that […]

Interview with “Long Island Medium” Theresa Caputo on new TLC series

September 23, 2011 Barb Oates

Talking to dead people is just an average day for Theresa Caputo. The Long Island, New York, housewife/medium doesn’t know why she’s been given this gift, but she certainly is using it as best as she can. Caputo is a psychic medium who spends her days and evenings helping people find closure and connecting them to loved ones they have lost. She’s never read a spiritual book. Doesn’t watch all those “I see dead people” movies. Nor does she follow paranormal stories or other mediums. “I’m a very sheltered person,” she tell us. Caputo’s built her business on reputation alone […]
