The Medium writers have toyed with the idea of the Dubois girls and their connection to the supernatural before, but never quite like this. In the past the story has always revolved around more of a what if, or what will be, question. Here, there was danger, by the bucketful. Ariel, as you can gather from the picture, had gone a little bit darkside. And that served to ratchet up the tension for Allison all the more.

If I had to put it in a nutshell, I’d say “Who’s That Girl?” was a bit hit and miss. By the time we got to the end, with the showdown between Allison and Elena, it was two thumbs up, to be sure. But getting there … it was a little rocky. Starting with the biggest of the rocks, what was up with the history of murder opening? Yeah, you never know who people really are. And seemingly good people do some horrific things. But couldn’t that bit be run at the beginning of every episode of Medium ever? It just felt completely off, and the episode worked just fine without it even being there.

Message in the Medium


Fast National ratings for Friday, Oct. 2, 2009 CBS' supernatural one-two punch took a lackluster Friday night, with "Ghost Whisperer" and "Medium" having visions of total-viewer and demographics wins. ABC didn't put up much of a fight for second place, scheduling repeats of new series "FlashForward" and "The Forgotten" against NBC's venerable but winning combination of "Law & Order" and "Dateline."

CBS averaged 7.6 million viewers for the night, with a 5.0 rating/9 share. NBC followed close behind at 6.5 million viewers and a 4.4/8. ABC lagged with 4.6 million viewers for the night and a 3.2/6. FOX pulled out 2.2 million viewers and a 1.5/3, while The CW trailed with 1.9 million and a 1.2/2. In the adults 18-49 demo, CBS squeezed by with a 1.7 rating. NBC scored a 1.4, followed by ABC at 1.2, FOX with 0.8 and The CW at 0.7.
