The Medium is more realistic than Ghost Whisperer any day!, December 19, 2009
This review is from: Medium: Seasons 1-5 (DVD)
Allison Dubois is a real person and this show is based around her real life, though not all of the episodes are from real life experiences. I enjoy watching a show that is giving the audience a look at the life of a medium who is still trying to gain control over her abilities while raising three daughters who are also learning how to deal with the abilities their mother has passed on. Although the scientific father, who happens to be a rocket scientist, does not know how to put into perspective the abilities of his wife and daughters, he remains strong as the rock that holds the family together. Every episode shows strong family values, even though mommy can see a murder from the victims point of view, and the daughters can read minds, talk to dead people, and see things in a dream that is very similar to mommies dreams. From murderer to murderer and case to case, this family experiences their abilities together and works through them as a loving family.

Medium - Seasons 1-5, July 18, 2010
This review is from: Medium: Seasons 1-5 (DVD)
My Mama and I watch the show halfway across the country from each other, then get on the phone and discuss them. For one reason and another, we've each missed more than a few of the episodes. I bought us each a set of the DVDs, so now we can watch and discuss them any time.
Fun!

I love this series--great entertainment, May 5, 2010
This review is from: Medium: Seasons 1-5 (DVD)
I find this series very intriguing. Even more so knowing it was originally based on a real psychic who worked with the police. I love the way each episode plays out and enjoy going back and forth from present day to dreaming to criminal investigations and back to family life.
While you can watch any show in any season and enjoy it, because the family life grows and develops between episodes it is best to watch it in order.
I think this is remarkably well written tv and has both an entertainment value as well as several "aha" moments. In addition, I find myself curious to find out more about psychic phenomena.
I don't think you will be disappointed in this series if you like crime drama and are comfortable with a story line based on psychic ability.
