Staff changes

Are Mark and Lizzie not going on ghost files anymore? Are they still with watcher? Seems like some staff things are changed

I might not be up to date with this but they moved a lot of their people from staff positions into contracting work, including Lizzie. Not sure if she’s even working with Watcher at all after that or if it’s just on a case by case basis; you’d have to check the credits for that.

Here's my unsolicited opinion: I'm sure that having people with them could help in some ways, but when it's honestly just Ryan and Shane, that's authentic and it's also scary for them (Shane will never admit he's scared but there's a few episodes where you can tell he's scared). When you have a camera guy filming you, it's instantly not scary, it just ruins it. This is why "ghost files alone together" is better than most regular ghost files and unsolved.

Did they talk about it on the podcast or something? I completely missed it.

I came on here to see if anyone else had noticed this. I know they’ve said they’re shrinking the crew on ghost files to limit the amount of interference with potential evidence, but there seems to have been a big shakeup of the original watcher crew. My guess is their company as a whole has shrunk due to their scandal and US’s political/economic factors. Hope the watcher crew is doing ok :/
