LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - NBC has renewed paranormal crime drama "Medium," sources said.
Details have not been determined, but the renewal is expected to be in the 13- to 18-episode range. The Patricia Arquette-starring series has become a utility player for NBC -- a consistent, if modestly rated, performer and a reliable midseason backup.
On the eve of NBC's Monday programing presentation to advertisers, the network also picked up midseason cop drama "Southland" and was finalizing a renewal of midseason comedy "Parks and Recreation," starring Amy Poehler.
There is still no final word on NBC's two remaining "bubble" series -- modestly rated shows walking a fine line between renewal and cancellation -- quirky sophomore "Chuck" and veteran "Law & Order," which is looking to tie "Gunsmoke's" record run with a 20th season pickup.
Both series appear likely to return, but the decision probably won't be made until after the network's Monday presentation.
