    One of the best series ever. This is my second favorite show on TV after Lost. I'm glad to have both back on at once.

    It's a bit early in the season to judge, maybe should have waited a bit. There's a little too much getting crammed into the first two shows, so the details that used to keep me interested are getting glossed over or just not there. Still, great and fun acting - Jake's growing role in the show is good to see, he's a great actor in the role.

    The writing this season is better that before (so far). I hope they can keep this up.

  1. The resolution with the ghost is plenty satisfying, but ultimately Medium's strength is that it's not about the ghosts.
  2. In an episode like next week's, in which Allison spots the ghost of a recently deceased man watching a murder, the twistiness works; in one like tonight's, featuring a complicated web of affairs, betrayals and possible reincarnations, things become so tangled that the story and Arquette can't keep up.

    Get beyond that preposterous premise outlined above, and you've got a solid piece of prime-time entertainment. This show knows what it is, and knows exactly what the core audience expects.
