Why on earth is Medium's time ...
Question: Why on earth is
Medium's time slot being tampered with? It was bad enough that this wonderful show had to compete with
CSI: Miami last year. This year it won't even appear until mid-season, and then I think it's going to be competing with
Without a Trace. Why did it lose its Monday time slot for some new show that probably won't last?
Medium is my favorite show, and it seems as if NBC is intentionally trying to kill it. Why, why, why?
Answer: Because, because, because.
Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip is a huge priority for NBC this fall. When ABC moved
Grey's Anatomy into the Thursday slot, which NBC originally intended for
Studio 60, the network had to blink and find a home for it somewhere. Voilà, Monday! There are no easy time periods anymore, so
Studio 60 will have its work cut out for it against the
CSI: Miami juggernaut (a loyalty I can't fathom, considering how ridiculous the show has become). But this is why
Medium is taking a breather, although it could come back sooner than expected if any of NBC's new shows tanks (I'm hoping not
Studio 60). NBC is
not trying to kill
Medium. Much as I like to criticize networks, this is not how they go about their business.
