Though CBS hasn’t admitted it, it’s being assumed that Medium has indeed been cancelled. The venerable drama has been down in the ratings this season (though it often ranks first in the 18-49 demographic for the timeslot) and CBS cut the season order from 22 to just 13 installments. That’s never a good sign. Just ask the folks from Numb3rs when a similar thing happened to them last year.
Over the weekend, Medium star Patricia Arquette was at an event and told EW that the show was indeed cancelled.
The cast has two more episodes to shoot before they wrap and Arquette said, “I was trying to get information from the writers about the last episode… I don’t know what it’s going to be, but they’re really excited about it. They’re like, ‘we’re just going to burn the whole thing down!’ I’m really excited.”
The actress isn’t looking forward to the show ending but said, “It’s been a great time. I love that time in my life.”
What do you think? Is Arquette correct or will Medium beat cancellation once again and return for season eight?

with all the ”’ junk ” on TV and the idiots at CBS cancel a great show ——
SHAME ON THEM
I just can’t believe it! What’s wrong with people? Medium is one of the best shows ariring! How can they cancel such a brilliant show? What are they replacing it with? Another reality show? Come on!!
I just feel very very sad.

I don’t understand. First “Ghost Whisperer”, and now “Medium”.
I guess the great ones just don’t stand a chance in today’s reality. Too close to the truth, I think.
I got tears in my eyes reading about the cancellation of this show. It truly touched me in ways I’m sure most people could never understand.
Patricia Arquette did an absolutely stellar job in the part of Allison Dubois. I hope her career goes on to even greater things.
My daughter and I are OBSESSED with this show….we are praying it is not cancelled – there are so few television shows out there with such amazing, unique writing! Please don’t cancel this amazing show!!!
I feel deeply sad… The Dubois family has entered in our lives, and after all these years, it’s just as a part of our family now. It will be a really bad loss for us. Please let them go on and let’s see how the girls grow, how the family adjust to every changing. Please don’t end this amazing story!
I’m a fan from Italy. I’ve heard the bad news about Medium, and I’m so surprised! This show rocks, it’s the most intelligent and amazing one aired nowadays, how can you cancel it? That’s not fair! Please let the show survive and keep the 22 episodes in the actual season at least! Changing the airing time would be a good strategy!
“Medium” is a quality show that presents family relationships in an appropriate and realistic way and, because of its original, interesting, and forceful stories, leaves the viewer with a good feeling each Friday night! Don’t cancel “Medium”! Instead cancel one of those boring, uninspiring situation comedies, prime time soap operas, or so-called reality shows that are saturating the television schedule.
please save medium! when my husband heard this on the radio, i could’nt believe it! I love this show”” please tnt pick it up, this show could follow southland or the closer!!!
What is wrong with these people cancelling every classic Tv series
are they mad arn’t they happy with the success of anything anymore,
economy is bad & know they take away our entertainment.
I am so sad to hear the news about Medium. I love this show and will miss it tremedously. I so enjoyed Patricia Arquette’s Alison. I hope it’s not true!
Cable! ABC–SAVE Medium!!!!
I love medium one of the best show’s on television.
It is the sad truth that todays programs are favoured by those that don’t contribute much to the gentle events of life. The violent programs are favoured and those that watch such destruction are passing it on down through to their children. Medium had a wonderful feel about it, gentle, powerful and rewarding – the way humans need to be to overcome the destructive, violent world we live in.

i really hope they dont cancel it they are getting rid of all of the good shows lately
If Medium is cancelled, yet another quality show will have been taken away from it’s loyal viewers. Both my husband and I watch it regularly. If we have to miss an episode, then we’ve watched it on our computer. But if it’s really gonna be the final episode on CBS, please, please don’t kill any of the Dubois family. Who knows, maybe TNT will continue it. I think the CBS finale should have both Joe and Allision sleeping through the night with neither having a single dream.
I hope they don’t cancel Medium. It is a well written and directed show, very believable. It is one show I really look forward to watching.
