Get ready for your chance to win a reading with Long Island Medium Theresa Caputo during TLC’s live Long Island Medium Tweet to Win event on Sunday, Oct. 6 beginning at 9pm ET. So how exactly do you enter this Long Island Medium tweet to win sweepstakes? First, you’re going to need to sign up for a Twitter account.
Based on all the letters and comments we get from viewers who are desperate to get on Theresa’s waiting list, I’m anticipating this will be a sought-after prize; however, I’m also anticipating many of Theresa’s fan base may not be all that Twitter savvy — so that could either increase your odds or cause you some frustration, but either way it’s a new opportunity to get you a reading.
The Long Island Medium tweet to win sweepstakes is tied around the season premiere of Long Island Medium, which begins Sunday, Oct. 6 at 9pm ET. Viewers who Tweet using the hashtag #LongIslandMedium while watching the premiere episode of Long Island Medium or while watching TLC’s new series Alaskan Women Looking for Love, immediately following at 10pm ET, could be eligible to win. During this period you also must be following @TLC on Twitter to see if you won. The sweepstakes period is from 9pm ET to 11pm ET. What’s great about this sweepstakes is there will be multiple winners — at least three people are going to win the grand prize, which consists of round-trip tickets to New York City (provided you live farther than 100 miles from NYC), hotel accommodations, some spending money and a private reading with Theresa Caputo. Another perk about this sweeps is the immediate gratification of knowing whether or not you won. Theresa will be randomly selecting winners (that probably means you can say just about anything) during commercial breaks and will be announcing them live on Oct. 6.
Here’s what the official rules have to say about the winner determination: “Theresa Caputo will randomly select at least three winners during the Sweepstakes Period from among all eligible Entries received as of the time of selection. Theresa will announce the Twitter handle of the winners on air during the live segments of the Long Island Medium premiere night broadcast on October 6, 2013 from 9 PM ET to 11:00 PM ET. Potential winners will then be notified on Twitter by Direct Message to their Twitter account. Note that if your Twitter handle is announced on air and you receive a Direct Message to your Twitter account, you are not a winner until your eligibility has been verified and you have complied with these Official Rules. Entrants residing in the Mountain and Pacific time zones will not be able to see the live announcement but are eligible to enter during the Sweepstakes Period and if deemed a winner will be notified through Twitter.”
There’s no guidance on what to Tweet or what not to Tweet detailed in the rules, so Tweet as often as you can and don’t forget to use the correct hashtag!
The rules also add that Theresa — at her sole discretion — also has an option to offer a live reading over the phone during the show’s broadcast for the potential winners, which could get very interesting. Talk about an immediate win, right!? [When I first interviewed Theresa, before her show even debuted, she connected with my departed mother over the phone (read the story here) — so the phone is an option.]
If you are a winner you will need to sign off on all sorts of paperwork, including being filmed and/or recorded and possibly being featured in a future episode.
So here’s a quick recap on how to enter the Long Island Medium tweet to win sweepstakes:
1. Sign up or log on to Twitter
2. Follow @TLC on Twitter
3. During the sweepstakes period (Oct. 6 from 9pm ET to 11pm ET) Tweet using the hashtag #LongIslandMedium
4. Watch the show and your Twitter account to see if you won.

What’s new this season of Long Island Medium?
The new season kicks off with a Long Island Medium: On the Road episode, where Theresa heads to Philadelphia to surprise her fans with messages from their loved ones. While exploring the best of what Philly has to offer, Theresa helps a mother heal from her son’s tragic passing, she helps a young widow to reconnect with her true love and she gives a little girl closure on the loss of her baby sister. This season also will find the Caputo house under construction AGAIN. Apparently, Theresa couldn’t stop after the bathroom and closet renovations. The new house project, however, requires Theresa to relocate to her father’s house (remember Theresa’s adorable dad, Nick, last season?) for readings. Victoria’s back this season (yay!!), at least for an episode, when she comes home from college and brings an unannounced friend. Prepare yourself for some emotional readings, too, as the press materials hype the stories of a devastated man who finally releases the guilt he feels from his parents’ tragic passing, and another man who hears validations from his wife that no one else would know.

I have had alot of deaths in my family in the past 7 years. In July 2-04-2003 I lost my mom. In Sep. 2004 lost my father-in law. In Feb 2005 lost my mother in law, in 2009 lost my youngest sister, in 2110 I lost my brother and in 2012 lost my brother in law!! I’ve missed my mom so so much sometimes I still run to call her if something special happens in my life. My brother and I were very very close and he died unexpectdly and was only 57. I would give anything to find out if they are near me and they are all ok, I loved them all so dearly. Thank you kindly. Laura Khanolkar.
Hi Theresa,lost a love and never had closure on the relationship. He was a West Point Cadet and I chose the wrong person to marry. When I received word that he wanted to get in touch with me, shortly after, he was killed. It has taken over 30 years to try and find out what his thoughts were and what how he felt.Please try and help me get closure on this relationship as I still think of him and feel he may have still be alive if I had not made the wrong choice.
My brother died of alls , I just want to know he’s ok, and that I love and miss him. But I want to know if he knows that he has a beautiful granddaughter . Please pick me !
I love your show ! I think you are amazing ! My life has changed since I lost my father . I can’t understand how in life we have our love ones and in the blink of an eye there gone . I miss him so very much and would give any thing to know that my father is in peace . And to let him know that I miss him so very much . I need your help ! Deanna

My sister and I have e-mailed you, We have lost a loved one and would truly appreciate a reading. Unfortunately we live in Canada. You have a very large following here in Canada, and I know I have gotten many people hooked on Long Island Medium.
A reading from you would mean the world to my family. I know you want spirit to do all the work so I am not going to elaborate on who and why we wish to contact this individual, however it is extremely important to us to get a reading.
Would really like if you could give my friends some closure. One lost her son 9
years ago in a car accident; the other 1 year ago and are not sure how it happened.
I know how busy you are but one can just hope.
Love your show.
Thank you.

I wanted so bad to get a reading on my resent loss of a loved one, but I respect the crowd of people you had to see. also did you hire the help to help you, if not my son would love to work with you. please call me if you can.
Hi Theresa, I have a son that lost his father when I was 8 months pregnant. I really don’t know the truth about his death. My son grandmother state someone killed him but they never found the person. I believe there’s more to the story.
