Medium (2005–2011)
1/10
Stupid and poorly acted
15 July 2022
I've tried to watch this several times, but it's incomprehensible as far as I'm concerned. I can't believe this show used to scare me. But then again, I was 12 when this first started coming on TV. Yes, I was a 12 year old who got frightened easily. I didn't watch rated R movies like these kids nowadays. Medium is so lame. It tries to be this atmospheric, nail-biting, have you hanging on the edge of your seat psychological thriller, but it fails miserably. The acting is terrible. A high school drama class could put on a better performance. The story itself is preposterous. A housewife who has clairvoyant abilities and joins the team of her local police department's detective unit to help them identify murderers is so unrealistic. I've never been a fan of shows where an ordinary person turns out to be a superhuman. The plot lines of the episodes are also choppy. They always go back and forth between different scenes that have no relation to each other, at least not to me anyway. I find myself more focused on how she constantly wakes up startled from one of her visions. I feel sorry for her husband. The poor man never gets any sleep. It's a wonder he doesn't leave her just for that reason. If you want a crime program that also has an element of darkness, I recommend Scandinavian noir. This show is bizarre, idiotic, and disturbing.
