5.0 out of 5 stars MEDIUM is the best, August 31, 2008

By	barry (Boston, MA United States) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)

I cannot praise this show highly enough. For me it is the best network drama on television and has been ever since its very first episode in season one. This show definitely shows what bringing A++ caliber film stars to television can achieve. Patricia Arquette has always been an exemplary actress and always has tackled very demanding movies in a wide range of independant films. (She also starred in the second installment of the Nightmare On Elm Street series which is a hoot to watch.) But Patricia Arquette is a true artist and acting in her hands is a true craft.

Medium since the beginning has played out like a film brought to television. There are stories in each episode but also an underlying plot and theme that has carried out throughout all for seasons. It is one, exceptional, continuous drama becoming more involving with each episode.

The show is intellingent, scary and handles the main premise of Alison being able to receive messages from the dead with seriousness and true credibility. The show is never gimicky. We follow Alsion throughout all the seasons as she learns how to use her gift and how it affects her life. This show also shows an excellent realistic portrayal of an average middle class family. Alison, her husband Joe and the three kids are excellently cast and very believable.

The entire cast of this show is exemplary and all are given an opportunity to shine but it does rest highly on the shoulders of Patricia Arquette. She is practically in every scene. Patricia has also won an Emmy for her performance in this series and been nominated every year. Without her the heart and soul of the show would be gone.

This four season set is an amazing deal. I have purchased each season as it came out but for those who haven't purchased any yet or want to get an introduction to the show purchasing them in this bulk offer is much cheaper than purchasing them all individually.

This show is one that once viewed must be owned. You will want to watch the episodes over and over for it is so complex there is always something new to discover. So for quality drama, acting and amazing suspense and scares done to the highest caliber this series is a must.

Alison DuBois is based on a real person and to travel along her journey is an amazing treat. Highly recommend.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hooked on Medium, May 25, 2009

By	Chez Libby "Chez Libby" (California) - See all my reviews

I had not watched this show until recently, but a prolonged illness has had me "reviewing" a lot of television. One of the best shows out there is Medium. The acting and writing are terrific. There are so few shows that show a sustained, loving relationship between a husband and wife. Frankly, I can't think of any and there are few in fiction as well. Usually a show or a book series stops cold when a couple get married, because "marriage isn't exciting past the courtship". However, Medium consistently shows a wonderful family life that is not quite too good to be true. I don't know if there is a real Joe Dubois out there, but Allison has it made. I also love the kids, the humor, the mysteries, and, of course, the paranormal aspects of the show as well. In simple it is a wonderful, intelligent show and I hope the writers and production team can keep up the good work for a few more years. I bought the series so I can enjoy the shows whenever I wish, commercial free. It was worth it and I will buy all new seasons as they come to market as well.

5.0 out of 5 stars Medium 4-Season Review, June 11, 2009

By	Amazon Customer "Eddie" (Alabama) - See all my reviews

We didn't start watching Medium until a few months ago, so catching up on all the past seasons has really been entertaining. The ability to see a show and also hear comments from the producer was a plus.
