Show Title: SurrealEstate
Audience Rating: Teen and up
Warnings: Jump scares, they see dead people, danger and physical attacks
Length of Episodes: 43 minutes
Length of Series: 2 seasons with 10 episodes each, 3rd season TBD
Why you recommend it:

Have you ever wondered how real estate agents sell those haunted houses? Luke Roman -- who sees spirits -- and his team do their best to either quell the spooks in a haunted property, or at least to make sure that the dead and the living can reside together in harmony. Tongue firmly in cheek, this show is a supernatural fantasy that is sometimes scary, sometimes funny, and always interesting. It hits that sweet spot for me of the early monster of the week episodes of Supernatural and the comedic chemistry of the Ghostbusters teams.

Oh I second this! I truly love this series, though I confess I love series one more than series two. But still - it's amazing, and can quite often bring you to tears.
