Faced with the looming spectre of cancellation, the producers of Jennifer Slept Here tried to spice things up a bit to boost the failing sitcom's ratings.*
Love triangles are complicated enough business without throwing possession by unclean spirits into the mix, though I confess that the notion of ectoplasmic catfights does have a certain sleazy appeal for me.
The Fall - There's a Ghost in My House (from The Frenz Experiment, 1988) - This is a nifty cover of a 1967 R. Dean Taylor hit (in Britain, at least). R. Dean Taylor is also the man responsible for my all time favorite karaoke selection, 1970's poignantly absurd "Indiana Wants Me."

"Indiana Wants Me" is superb! And I'll punch out anybody who says otherwise.... and wasn't he the first white artist on Motown or something?
ghost in my house, regardless of who's doing it, is one of my favorite songs ever. i've got the r dean taylor version on 45...thanks for reminding me about the fall's.
another five star selection, the singer of the fall lives near me and can usually be found in the pub,
