DVD Review: Medium The Fifth Season

Medium (based on experiences of real-world psychic Allison DuBois) premiered in January of 2005 to strong numbers and garnered its star Patricia Arquette a Best Actress in a Drama Series Emmy. It has since survived scheduling chaos, moving from Monday to Wednesday and then back to Monday, And now with the current season, it's jumped to Friday and it's jumped from NBC to CBS, where it's been filmed all along. Fans like us at ComicsOnline are hoping that this will lend some stability and allow Medium to continue for another five seasons.

NBC Orders More Chuck Episodes!

It looks like Chuck isn't "staying in the car" for as long as we thought. Chuck Season 3 may be coming back sooner than we hoped. Instead of premiering in March of 2010 it may be back before the end of 2009. NBC has ordered six additional episodes of Chuck, and that's on top of the 13 episodes the network previously ordered, bringing the show’s season 3 total to 19 eps (just three shy of what’s considered a full season).
