A new NBC drama Medium with Patricia Arquette looks really good. They are promoting it like crazy. I hope it ends up being as good as it looks.


From Emmy Award-winning executive producer, creator and director Glenn Gordon Caron ("Moonlighting") comes "Medium," a chilling drama series inspired by the real-life story of research medium Allison Dubois. Patricia Arquette ("Stigmata," "Flirting with Disaster") stars as a young wife and mother who, since childhood, has been struggling to make sense of her dreams and visions of dead people.

Allison Dubois (Arquette) is a strong-willed young mother of three, a devoted wife and law student who begins to suspect that she can talk to dead people, see the future in her dreams and read people's thoughts. Fearing for her mental health, she turns for support to her husband Joe (Jake Weber, "U-571"), an aerospace engineer, who slowly comes to believe that what his wife is telling him just might be true. The real challenge is convincing her boss, D.A. Devalos (Miguel Sandoval) -- and the other doubters in the criminal justice system -- that her psychic abilities can give them the upper hand when it comes to solving violent and horrifying crimes whose mysteries often reside with those who live beyond the grave.

No problem. I had to start the thread early so hopefully someone will post in the thread so I won't forget when the 3rd comes around.

I am looking foward to tonight's premiere. I just hope it lives up to my expectations. I also hope I don't scare myself too much.  :oops:

I actually enjoyed it. At first it was a little slow. It almost has a movie feel but it's too short. I do wish it was longer.

It's hard to believe that it's based on a real person. Weird.

There is another new episode on Thursday and then it goes to the regular time on Mondays.

I thought it'd be better than it was but I don't think I'll continue to watch it.

I found the real Allison DuBois's website, if anyone's interested: http://www.allisondubois.com. Her book might be fun to read...

The book does look interesting but I guess the series is pretty much from the book.

I look foward to Thursday.  8)

There is some confusion about that. We were just discussing it at FORT.

I swear they said a new episode on Thursday and Monday. My direct tv guide (with this local channel) says  it's new too

Allison questions her powers when her old boss asks for her help in selecting a jury that will return the death penalty for a murderer/rapist, and she suspects that she has helped put the wrong man on death row.

Some of the people at FORT say theirs says rebroadcast too. I guess we'll see. I set my timer too.

What are you waiting for? Watch it already. I am curious to see what the film almighty bdub has to say about it.
