What a show The Medium season finale opened with Joe throwing the 2200 cashmere robe at Meghan and then asking for his idea back and then he shot her Unfortunately he woke up Too bad that conniving bottom-feeder deserved thatWhen he actually did see Meghan aka your favorite neighborhood she-devil he was understandably ticked off at her He told her he had shown the robe to Allison and she was none too happy about it Its a robe Its cashmere Its a luxury item Meghan offered to call Al and straighten everything out But Joe wouldnt let her He said he intended to dissolve the business Meghan reminded him she owned him He responded by packing his things and walking out of the office Meghan came after him asking where he thought he was going Im taking my morals and Im going homeIt looked like Joe was out of an idea and a job and the potential of an awful lot of money However Meg

It all started with a scrawny little kid beating up the school bully with his lunchbox that only minutes before the bully had berated Oh how I yearned to do the same with my Partridge Family lunchbox That would have shown any school bully I meant business It would take several dreams for Allison to find the significance of the dream of the young boy and his twin brother sitting outside the principals office But soon she would realize that the boys in her dream were the same as the adult brothers she was also dreaming about Miguel Ferrer starred in this episode of Medium as the grown-up version of twin brothers Joey and Teddy Carmichael The story a drug dealer Curtis Lambert was shot execution style one shot into each knee and one into his head Not that he didnt deserve it but it was nasty watching him crawl across the floor with his bloody knees Who shot him was only part of solving the crime According to Allisons dream it was cut and dry Joey Ca

Its a car our car and we love it Allison mused about her beloved family vehicle and then the car went boom What a scary way to start this episode Luckily it was just a dreamAl tried to relay the dream to Joe but he asked unbelieving What do you mean blow up To which Allison responded with a hand gesture and sound effects to drive her point home Allison reminisced that the Volvo was the first car they bought together Supposedly theyd driven that Volvo home from the hospital after each daughter was born which would make that car around 14 years old Thats pretty darn good Who knew the Swedes made such a durable and reliable vehicle She couldnt start the car herself and wouldnt let Joe do it either She was actually teary-eyed pleading with him not to but to her great relief he couldnt get it to turn over much less blow up So he surprised her with an SVU that he got for a steal from some guy unloadi

Medium began this episode with a Peeping Tom If a guy walks around the neighborhood peering into peoples houses from the sidewalk no less is considered a Peeping Tom then I guess I am one too Who doesnt love to look into random houses and see how other people live I always thought of Peeping Toms as rather seedy characters who crept around in bushes and spied on people But the real mystery is why was the girl undressing in front of the window that looked out on the main street anyhow I think people are as much exhibitionists as they are voyeuristic Sure there would be no Jerry Springer without voyeurs but youve got to have people willing to open the proverbial trench coat in order for there to be something to see Lynns tennis partner Kim ended up dead after an apparent accident cause when her pain medication affected her ability to stand upright The womans husband Russell Furlong claimed to have argued with her and then went to sle

Two stars shone their light on Medium this week First we enjoyed the return of Kurtwood Smith as Agent Edward Cooper back to solve serial killings Secondly Kelly Preston thats Mrs John Travolta thank you very much appeared as a monetary angel to Joe making him a proposition he couldnt refuse Allison began this weeks nocturnal visions by dreaming of Agent Cooper killing someone She feared he had become vigilante and was going to kill the serial killer of three young women And she wasnt far off base Allison told Cooper off because she knew he intended to kill the killer and she didnt think it was right for him to do In return Cooper cleverly pulled her into his circle He told Van Dyke he wanted her help and made him give her an office When she dreamed the same scenario the second time she saw her initial dream had some very pertinent details missing The killer had slipped into Coopers hotel room with every intention of killing him and no

Theres no easy way to break into this episode of Medium lightly Combining the heartwrenching loss of a mothers daughter with the despicable crime of kidnapping and the gruesome abuse of women for mans folly this episode really revved it up from last week All I can say is thank god theres at least one person around to dream about these terrible crimes If it wasnt for Alison how many peoples deaths and abuse would go unsolved Alison awoke having dreamt about Cynthia dreaming about her lost daughter who had been kidnapped nine years earlier in a crime that was never solved You can imagine the level of pain that Cynthia must have felt as an investigator of missing people who was not able to locate her daughter It was high time that Anjelica Huston finally got the chance to flex those Oscar winning chops of hers and run the gamut of emotions in this ep From despondent to hopeful rageful to apologetic and a myriad of other feelings as wel

OK that is a totally gross title for this weeks totally gross Medium But it is exactly what Allison had when she awoke after the first dream about the Senator and his cannibalistic tendencies Did you catch her She raised her hand to her mouth You could almost taste it with her And it was totally gross Finally the return of Devalos Lets hope that soldier-eating Senator can get Manny back in the DA driving seat Its been long overdue Speaking of which did Manny look a little heavier than when he left last year Perhaps all that time off from the job he got a little lazy I kept thinking the Senator might find him dinner-worthy Not only was Devalos back but he was directed by none other than his alter ego Miguel Sandoval Thats right Sandoval directed this weeks show so to the reader who was panicked worry not Hes baccckGregory Itzin made a fantastic return to primetime since his days on 24 as the Senator with a secret Unfortun

Or The Paris that Kent BuiltWe see the Eiffel Tower and a beautiful girl when the dulcet tones of 10CCs Im Not in Love open the show I nearly started laughing After last weeks Crowded House serenade I thought whoever has been writing this season of Medium has the exact same taste in music as my sister Im Not in Love is her favorite song 10CC Paris and a little Chardonnay sounds like a pretty good time but when you add a corkscrew in the hand well youre headed for troubleMelissa the lovely blond is not enjoying her honeymoon in Paris Obviously Paris is NOT for lovers Something definitely seemed off in Allisons dream In real life Melissa was engaged to marry her second husband we find after the first marriage went sour Joes job hunt is no fun either though he does look good in a suit With only three aerospace companies in Phoenix its a terribly bleak market for an aeronautical en

Mediums fourth season opener left me speechless Not only was there singing and dancing and mice and marionettes but Anjelica Huston stopped by for her first of many visits to the show Ahhh so good I dont even know where to start Lets just get this out of the way This was a heart-wrenching show The premise a very small boy gets lured to his death by a sick-o with a penchant for dancing There have been so many stories recently about small children being killed lately I found this episode to be very timely and really hard to watch So many things popped into my mind when I watched the scene where Bens father proved his inability to actual parent his child I mean what was he thinking Who in their right mind would let a four-year old take off in a big store If youre going to spend time with your child mister how about actually paying attention to him Ariel learned a lesson or two I could not believe what her friend said to Brooke to shake her confidence and
