I don't watch it every week, but when I do, I'm always impressed with how good a show Medium is. Patricia Arquette isn't the most gripping actress in the world, but she plays a fun character as awesomely sarcastic as she is incredibly earnest. And her husband is played by Jake Weber, who was so awesome in Dawn of the Dead that I still love him to this day. And while most weeks she has a new case to solve, with only her confusing dreams to guide her, there's usually a parallel thread she has to deal with that affects her family in some way, and sometimes the two intermingle. Plus, the status quo of the family is constantly changing: One episode they're unemployed and broke, a few episodes later they have jobs, but they're being stalked by a psychopath, and the next week one of her daughters has demonstrated a new psychic ability. Basically, the problems never end for the Dubois family. Which is why I think I need to watch tonight's 2-hour event -- because it looks like big stuff might happen.
