5.0 out of 5 stars She Sees What Others Can't --- And It's Really Wild!, November 12, 2006

This review is from: Medium - The Complete Second Season (DVD)

This is "Medium" --- The Complete Second Season, featuring 22 episodes of this amazing NBC series with performances by Emmy-award winning Patricia Arquette.


This DVD includes some excellent bonus features. The bonus features are as follows:


Commentaries --- For several episodes, featuring both crew and cast. These commentaries are insightful and entertaining and will definitely help you to understand certain aspects of the show better. It's too bad they couldn't do commentary for "Death Takes a Holiday" and "Twice Upon a Time," but I suspect they were still wrapping work on those eps while this DVD set was being created.

The Story of "Medium" Season 2 - Highlights of the season from beginning to end. Discusses how things changed between season one and two, some of the highest-quality episodes, and more.

"Medium" in Another Dimension --- Discusses the 3-D episode of the show, "Still Life." This is pretty interesting and has some insightful thoughts, but a lot of it is already covered in the commentary for that episode.

A Day in the Life of the Dubois Daughters --- Discusses the actresses that play the daughters of the show, as well as the characters themselves. Includes their school studies, how they prepare for the show and anecdotes and praise from other cast and crew.

The Museum of Television and Radio - Q&A with Cast and Creative Team --- Discusses the writing process for the show.

Gag Reel --- A fun gag reel, including mess-ups as well as joke scenes.


If you're a fan of "Medium," or any good drama or science-fiction series, you can't afford to pass this up.

5.0 out of 5 stars MEDIUM IS SUCCESSFUL IN FRANCE TOO!!!, January 18, 2007

By 

Muriel Bentz "French exception" (Paris, France) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Medium - The Complete Second Season (DVD)

Just to let you know that Medium's got a lot of success in France too. Season 1 and season 2 have been broadcasted altogether from November 2005 to July 2006 with very good audience rate.
The main reasons for this success are pretty much the same everywhere I guess: very good cast lead by the unique Patricia Arquette who can make you laugh and cry from one minute to the other, supernatural atmosphere, suspense and of course, this more than real family life that makes you feel like you're spying on your neighbors apart from the fact that this family is far better than your neighbors, they're funny, loving and moving just like we wish we could all be.
Now I'm just looking forward to discover season 3!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Rare medium well done, October 18, 2006

This review is from: Medium - The Complete Second Season (DVD)

Much better than most of today's contemporary TV programs, this series has depth of character and it does not lose momentum through the first season.

The first DVD contains the conclusion to the cliffhangers from the first season. Some of the characters in the pilot to make it into the regular episodes. This package even has a fun though maybe distracting to some 3-D. I got out my glasses and ooohd and aaahd.

Great formula as Allison Dubois (Patricia Arquette) who has a gift since childhood of talking to the dead and getting physique vibes. She diagnoses or misdiagnoses crime scenes for a local district attorneys office. As her child puts it she is a "guesser." Natural they are the skeptics with negative attitudes to overcome and obscure mental images to be interpreted. She must also do this while balancing housework, kids, and a husband that can be snot at times. There is usually a quirky twist in the end of each episode.

Bottom line is that you can get hooked on the series and will feel cheated when you run out of episodes. It is interesting that they spread the abilities around in the family instead of keeping just to Allison.
