Are you one of those people who has been thinking that Diedrich Bader just hasn’t been on our TVs enough lately? Sure, he’s been doing all kinds of voiceover work, but hasn’t really had a regular gig since The Drew Carey Show. Well, good news. Medium has heard you. They decided to remedy the situation by giving him 30 or 40 roles all in one very crazy hour. And I have to say, they couldn’t have picked a better guest star for the parts. And if the Diedrich overload wasn’t enough, the Medium scribes also delivered what is probably my favorite Dubois daughter story to date. Good stuff all around.

How do we not start with Diedrich Bader? Just look at him there in his little bikini. That’s commitment folks. It also goes a long way in explaining just why Bader was perfect for the role. He’s so versatile. He’s able to pull off something as ridiculous as appearing in drag, repeatedly, but still sell the more serious moments as Joe or Scanlon. Those two, in particular, were my favorite part of the Fred Rovick explosion. It was very clever to insert all of their little mannerisms, like Joe brushing his hair out of his eyes, into the mix. As convoluted as the many Freds became by the end, it was still easy enough to keep straight just who each of them were.

Fast national ratings for Friday, Feb. 5. CBS' mystical Friday night lineup propelled it to another victory with 9 million viewers, 5.6/10 households overall. ABC was next with 6.2 million, 4.1/7, followed by NBC with 5.5 million, 3.7/6, FOX at 4 million, 2.4/4 and the CW at 2.8, 1.8/3.

That's actually a big Friday night for the CW -- the Justice Society on "Smallville" had lots of people tuning in. FOX and NBC flip-flopped in the 18-49 demo, which looked like this: CBS (2.1), ABC (1.6), FOX (1.5), NBC (1.3) and the CW (1.2), all of which are up a good bit from last week.
