Editorial Review:
Product Description: From Emmy Award-winning executive producer creator and director Glenn Gordon Caron ( Moonlighting ) comes Medium a chilling drama series inspired by the real-life story of research medium Allison DuBois. Emmy winner Patricia Arquette ( Stigmata Flirting with Disaster ) stars as a young wife and mother who since childhood has been struggling to make sense of her dreams and visions of dead people. Arquette received the Emmy in the Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series category after the telecast of the initial 16 episodes of the critically acclaimed series. Allison DuBois (Arquette) is a strong-willed young mother of three a devoted wife and law student who begins to suspect that she can talk to dead people see the future in her dreams and read people's thoughts. Fearing for her mental health she turns for support to her husband Joe (Jake Weber "U-571") an aerospace engineer who slowly comes to believe that what his wife is telling him just might be true. The real challenge is convincing her boss D.A. Devalos (Miguel Sandoval) -- and the other doubters in the criminal justice system -- that her psychic abilities can give them the upper hand when it comes to solving violent and horrifying crimes whose mysteries often reside with those who live beyond the grave. Sofia Vassilieva and Maria Lark also star as Ariel and Bridgette the two eldest DuBois children.System Requirements:Running Time: 938 Mins.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: TELEVISION/SERIES & SEQUELS Rating: NR UPC: 097361226347 Manufacturer No: 122634
Amazon.com: Having weathered a slight sophomore slump, creator-executive producer Glen Gordon Caron's Medium returns to DVD with this six-disc collection of all 21 episodes from its third and arguably best season. As ever, Patricia Arquette's lead performance as Allison DuBois, the medium/psychic whose visions of murderers, serial killers, and such make her an indispensable (and, in this season, controversial) part of the Phoenix district attorney's office, leads the way. But Medium also continues to evolve. Season Two's increased emphasis on Allison's home life with husband Joe (Jake Weber) and their three daughters (Sofia Vassilieva as Ariel, Maria Lark as Bridgette, and toddler Miranda Carabello as Marie) sometimes lessened a story's dramatic impact, but not this time. More and more, we see that the mixed blessing that is Allison's "gift" (it's one thing to have dreams that help solve vicious crimes, but quite another to be what she calls "a walking carnival trick," haunted by frightful, violent nightmares that aren't always what they seem to be) has been passed on to her children, and in some unusual ways. In "Four Dreams," the two-parter that opens the season, Bridgette dreams what her mother dreams--except the child's visions take the form of cartoons; meanwhile, "Mother's Little Helper" finds Ariel and Allison seeing the same visions from very different points of view. Joe, too, is increasingly fleshed out. The role of the spouse who struggles to understand but can't really get what his partner is going through is a tough one, but Joe's harrowing experience as a hostage is an important sub-plot throughout the final seven episodes, the last three of which (a triple-header, if you will, as all three involve a serial killer whose grisly m.o. earns him the nickname "the Recapitator") feature Neve Campbell and Jason Priestley in recurring roles. Of course, this is hardly a typical police procedural; the Law & Orders and CSIs of the world cover that ground. Any TV show helmed by Moonlighting creator Caron will have its share of eccentric touches. Thus we get episodes like "The One Behind the Wheel" (Allison is possessed by a mouthy, repugnant crime victim, but Joe insists she pretend to be herself so as not to freak out the kids) or "Better Off Dead," an amusing and touching tale of a ghost struggling to accept his fate. Overall, though it has its weaknesses, Medium remains one of TV's most eminently watchable series. Bonus material includes deleted scenes, a few featurettes, and occasional commentary tracks. --Sam Graham

at first I was very hesitating to watch this serie. I was hoocked on ghost whisperer, but then I did the first step and bought season one... you can believe me when I tell you that I couldnt stop anymore.when you know as well that the person allison dubois really exists and really does such a work, you watch this show under a different angle. it just seems real. family life is so much out of real life, the conflicts, the suspense. ... I wont say more. just enjoy it. dont miss this serie

We have enjoyed the Medium on TV this past season so well that we decided to buy the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd seasons. The characters are very realistic to a real family. Great entertainment and guess what, no commercials!!

I am a huge fan of Medium and have been since the very first episode. Much of the best television is on cable and Medium reaches that quality level and far surpasses the general dramas we see on network television. I have always felt like Medium plays out like one long movie that never looses intensity. Yes, there are subplots but the basic story develops as Allison learns more about her gift, her husband and family learn to cope with its impact and her life with the DA's office becomes more and ...
