WHERE is "Medium"?!

[mermaidrain.livejournal.com]

I was REALLY happy when the new season started at the beginning of January. I even forgave them skipping their 3rd ep which was weird (since they advertised it and didn't show it). But week after week of nothing but "American Gladiators" and "Deal or No Deal"?

What gives? Does anyone know?

Is this because of the strike? Did they really only get 4 episodes in the can before the strike hit?!

Because I've been watching to see if it switched nights too and I haven't been seeing it playing on any other night during the week either. It's still on Mondays, right?

So again I ask, WHAT gives?! Anyone?

It is becuase of he strike, but apparently Medium is rumoured to be on of the shows that will return to production once the strike is over.

Really? Because I thought the show was mostly in the can before the strike hit. *sigh* Foolish me for thinking so. *rolls eyes* WHAT is the point of even starting the season then?! NBC is just a big tease!

[lillianporter.livejournal.com]

Yeah I don't get it either, probably because the show had already been advertised to return on that date before the strike.
No clue why they do what they do.

i know i was thinking the same! I was so so happy it was back! I hope it comes back really soon...

Really? I must have missed that tagline then. Bummer. Well at least there's more in the works. And maybe we'll get to see that skipped episode eventually too. Who knows.

Cool icon, by the way. Did you make it?

[mermaidrain.livejournal.com]

Oh very cool. Thank you. I'll have to check her out. Did she have these in a particular post or anything?

[mermaidrain.livejournal.com]

*blush* I found it. Thanks. I wasn't sure it was still recent or not, but when I ACTUALLY looked I found them. LOL!

[mermaidrain.livejournal.com]

It's all good. I even found Ginny ones. YEAH for redheads! LOL!

Thanks for pointing me in that direction. I was thrilled to find them.

I googled it and found out that it will be on air February 28th.. so we just have to wait for couple weeks!!

[mermaidrain.livejournal.com]

OH wow! Good to know. I didn't even think of that!

Plus, given it's Sweeps time and all, I figured they didn't want to have the competition between all these other shows and such.

[mermaidrain.livejournal.com]

Actually I would think the opposite as "Medium" is a pretty strong pull for them, isn't it? And what is playing elsewhere for sweeps week? Almost everything is in re-runs right now, right?

[rogueslayer452.livejournal.com]

Honestly, I'm not entirely sure myself. This whole strike ordeal has pretty much messed things up that, while many are rerunning other shows have returned for their limited run of new episodes. Why Medium hasn't been new for some time and why there won't be new until the 28th, a day after the Sweeps have ended, is beyond me. *shrugs*

Yeah, I hear ya there. I'm in the same boat. NONE of the networks' decisions are making sense. =P"

They skipped the 3rd ep? What was it supposed to be about?

[mermaidrain.livejournal.com]

Now mind you I'm not sure if it was the 3rd or 4th, but I'm pretty sure it was the 3rd ep. According to both the previews they played at the end of the 2nd ep (I think) and Sci-Fi magazine which gave a break down of the show, it was supposed to be Allison trying to get a job for that sleazy white-haired lawyer that had been kind of her nemesis before. He was supposed to have her work on a case with him and offer her a really big pay check to continue to work for him, but he was fighting to get some guy off who Allison kept having visions of him NOT being innocent (i.e., she kept getting visions of him killing his wife). And she was all morally conflicted with what to do (as she and her family need the money but she couldn't let him get away with murder, etc.).

It looked like a great ep and a great concept and for some reason they didn't air it. ??? Maybe they wanted to keep the story line with Angelica Houston rolling as they jumped to the next ep with her if I remember correctly.

Thank you! That jogged my memory. You're right, that would've been a great ep. Hopefully they'll run it sometime soon.
