PLEASE DO NOT cancel the MEDIUM. I LOVE this show. I love that you had two episodes back to back starting @7:00 p.m. Monday thru Friday so I was able to rush home from work & see both episodes!

Please bring it back!! I see a lot of people feel the same as I do . Please listen to our comments!!

Thank you for picking up Medium. I love this show. It’s wonderful to see that CBS can spot a great show even if NBC cannot.
They put all their faith in Jay Leno and people are going to get tired of him, like every show they have over played.
Thanks again.

well if you want to know why the fan base didnt respond, its because many of us didnt know it had been cancelled!!! it would never have even occured to me that a show with good ratings and a good following would be pulled and for what? is there another cruddy new reality show that we need see? im blown away. im in shock. absolutely amazed. the only reason i know is because i was looking (far in advance) when the season premiere might be as i look so forward to it every year.

Thank-you so much CBS! I’ve been longtime supporter of Medium. I love the show, and I have never missed an episode. I am so thankful you stepped in. Great timing. Can’t wait to see how this will all work out.

How can I see reruns of the final episodes of Medium, looks like NBC is not offering it any longer, missed of few of last seasons.
Thanks

NBC has gone downhill since Zuckerman, or whatever this guy’s name is, who came from the Today Show. They expect all of us to enjoy reality T.V. and Jay Leno, 5 nights a week, , we pay too much for cable, what a rip off, , if I want real life, I prefer to go outside and experience the real world, instead of the reel world.
Medium was one of my favorite shows. looks like I switching to CBS, including my news. ( which makes them the most money)..
Get rid of Zuckerman, bring a woman into that position.

KUDOS CBS for standing up to NBC and adding “Medium” to its Tuesday 9-10 pm slot time! Patricia Arquette’s character, Ms. Dubois, is a real individual and much of the story line(s) are taken from events in her and her family’s life. It is an intreguing, suspense filled hour with the best cast and incredible story lines, thoroughly enjoy this show and I am elated at CBS decision. I’ve prerecorded all of “Medium’s” series and can’t wait for the new season (year). NBC’s executive decision makers have truly missed a HIT when it proved to be a HIT — a win / win for the cast/show and CBS! This is one show I’ve watched from inception and was absolutely speechless from the final episode in May. I found it on by accident tonight and was shocked and thrilled all in one! CBS not only will I watch “Medium” but possible other programs on CBS now as well. NBC shame on you – an award winning cast, and creative / director, “what were you smoking?!!!” as they say!

I watch very little tv because of my very busy lifestyle, but I’ve watched Medium since its inception. I was so angry when the “series finale” aired last May. I didn’t know that Medium would be picked up by CBS, I just thought the NBC idiots ended the series with Alison in a coma. I am thrilled to find out that I can still watch my favorite show again. Dear NBC–want to know my demographic? 46 yrs, married, college graduate, mother of 3. Yes, that’s the demographic you walked away from when you canceled Medium. TV today mostly stinks unless reality shows and Law & Order are all you are after. THANK YOU CBS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

NBC: Bad, Bad mistake! You’re really cutting your nose off dispite your face. Goodbye to this network. Jay Leno is the only thing worth watching – U BLEW it! CBS: Great move!!! Now we just keep our channel set to yours; don’t have to switch it. Medium doesn’t need to be a bridge after Ghost Whisperer (although it’s a nice segway). I’ve watched Medium since it’s first show. Great show. You’ve got smart people working for CBS, compared to NBC who have Meatballs for CEOs! CBS – Advertise and I’ll buy it; NBC – you lost big time!

I am so happy that CBS got Medium. It is an amazing show and Patricia Arquette is wonderful in it. I can’t believe that NBC canceled it because of the stupid Jay Leno’s new show. Jay Leno should retire and do us all a favor by never showing his face again on TV. He sucks anyway!!!! I will continue to watch Medium on CBS now and can’t wait for it to start, hope they keep the same cast on CBS.

Thanks you CBS. Please don’t make the mistake that NBC did with thisshow (and many others) – keep it in one time slot. I can assure you that this show will perform even better if we don’t have to wait 8 months to see the next installment.

NBC now stands for “Nobs with Brain Cancer” Medium is the only decent show on. Maybe CBS will give it the respect it deserves and air it in a consistent time slot. Love to see “The Closer” with Benjamen Bratt become a prime time show as well!

Thank you CBS for picking up Medium. Love this show, do not know what the other station was thinking or not thinking………

Thank you!!!!!

Medium was the only show I watched on NBC. I have always loved the show and am very happy that CBS has picked it up. Too bad CBS didn’t have the sense to keep a great show from last season, Moonlight.

I just found out that medium was cancelled, and I am Very upset! I look forward to watching every week. Seriously, why is tv getting rid of all the good shows and making dumb ones??!!!! Whoever is in charge here, PLEASE reconsider. Your tv veiwing audience will definetly decline if you get rid of this show!!!

I love the show. Can’t always watch it, but I buy the seasons each year so I can watch at my leisure. Hope CBS picks it back up. NBC has dropped the ball for some time now, including their news reporting.

NBC has consistently cancelled all of their best shows. With Medium being cancelled as well, I have no further use for NBC! I will be CANCELLING their station off my TV”S remote control.

I feel very disappointed that Medium may have been cancelled, and I don’t get it. There are more than enough “reality” shows and game shows. Medium is a great show that has great family values. Cancelling it doesn’t make any sense!

Stupid NBC. It’s so peculiar when people and companies never can see a great thing when it’s been in front of their faces forever. Medium is one of the few shows that I actually will put aside other things just to tune in! Let’s see how many lame-ass reality shows it will take NBC to put on to fill Arquettes’ void. I hope CBS has greater success in a shorter amount of time with Medium!

I love this show. Every mid season I made sure to watch it or DVR it. When it got switched from Wednesday to Monday, I was there watching it. This season had such an unbelievable story line, I could NOT wait to see the next one. No other NBC show has this effect on me or many people I know. I would be so upset if Medium was cancelled that I might boycott the network all together.

Last night, I watched what I believed to be the season finale of Medium. Today my daughter informed me the series was being canceled. What fruit loop was at the wheel making this decision? The important thing is that an intelligent, forward thinking network picks up the series. Looking forward to the conclusion, since I have followed this thought provoking series from scene one.

I just watched the series finale, and like many episodes, was living the moment. I don’t watch regularly but am always happy to catch an episode. The show has great casting as well as story line. Is it unrealistic to ask for a fictional family that is encouraging even while dealing with the blows life throws at them?

I didn’t realize until about 2 weeks ago that it didn’t say season finale, but with that ending someone had better get a clue. I would think that viewer approval would be noticed by the networks, they are also replaceable.

I didn’t even realize they were considering cancelling the series. My husband and I watch every week. I am so glad to see that CBS picked it up. I am not ready for it to be over. If I would have known it was going to be cancelled I would have written to NBC.

This is so typical. Not only NBC, but all of the networks can excellent shows for garbage shows. I have enjoyed Medium from the beginning, and will miss it. What else can I say……..I’m sorry to see it go. I wish NBC would reconsider.

Just look at NBC’s lineup and what they are cancelling … they thought that reality and game shows would save them. If Law and Order and Southland wasn’t still on I wouldn’t be watching their network at all … My DVR is set for CBS all week

I’ve watched Medium since it began and I’ve been hooked on every single episode since then. My whole family enjoys watching it. It just doesn’t make any sense on why they would decide to cancel the show. Hopefully another network picks up on $$ to flow in.

I have watched Medium since it first began. I hope that another network will pick up the series. I will miss this show. The characters are wholesome with great family morals. We need more shows with such characters. So much TV these days is based on sexually based jokes and way too many reality TV shows. I hope to be able to continue to watch Medium on another network.

It is a MISTAKE to cancel Medium.

Medium is one of the finest shows on the air today. I depicts a real life working family, juggling career and family while handling a slightly bizarre topic. My wife and U|I look forward to each week’s episode.

NBC has the most irrational decision-making team of any network in history. They deserve to be at the bottom scraping the barrel. Every year it seems they cancel precisely their best shows in favor of newer, crappier stuff. They are guaranteeing their own ratings demise.

Imbeciles.
