NBC has issued an early renewal for its Wednesday night drama Medium. This will be the fourth season for the Patricia Arquette series. Though the series does not usually win its timeslot, it does typically build on its lead-in Crossing Jordan in the key 18-49 demographic.
NBC Entertainment President Kevin Reilly stated, “Medium is a quality show with an outstanding star that has always delivered a very loyal audience. We are pleased to know that we can look forward to more of its unique storytelling next year under executive producer Glenn Gordon Caron’s superb creative vision.”
It’s unknown as yet how many episodes the peacock network will order or if Medium will be held back as a midseason replacement (as was the case this season). NBC ordered six advance scripts a few weeks ago, likely in an attempt to plan for a potential writers’ strike in the Fall. Their schedule plans will likely be influenced by that possibility as well. The network announces its 2007-08 schedule next week. Any predictions? Stay tuned! 
I love Medium and am concerned that the NBC website is showing Medium returning ONLINE in January. I think this is a sign it’s going to be cancelled. Showing it exclusively online was the same thing they did to Black Donnelleys before they cancelled it from TV completely.
I have been looking for “MEDIUM” to show up on the TV-schedule. I decided to look further and found the program to start in 2008.
It’s one of the best shows on prime time TV!!!
I’m so tired of not being able to see programs worth my time.
The writers do an excellent job and Patricia Arquette is great for the roll.
Please let us know something! My husband and I have been hoping and waiting for a glimmer of hope for Medium to return. This show is WAY to good to let go. I can not imagine anything better than what you’ve got with this hit series! BRING ALLISON back and her sleep deprived husband and family! WE LOVE MEDIUM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Medium is a good family content show that you can’t be ashamed to watch with your older kids. No foul language, no real violence, no lude sexual behavior and it’s just good TV. Reminds me of the old Ellery Queen Mysteries with Tim Hutton in the 70s…Why clog up the TV with crap when you can watch good programming like Medium. Please don’t cancel it. Find a good timeslot and stick to it. Wednesday is good.
WHERE IS THE SHOW MEDIUM? IT IS ONE OF THE BETTER SHOWS ON NETWORK TV. IF YOU’RE NOT GOING TO AIR IT, SELL IT TO A REAL NETWORK THAT WILL. PLEASE BRING IT BACK.
I love this show, and the way the people on it work together. I grew up psychic but in an abusive home and this show really helps me be in a better place about it and be a better person now. I am so very glad to hear it has not been canceled – I missed it earlier this fall and just ordered all three season DVDs. Thank you for keeping this very fine, enlightening show that is realistic, not fake, and yet offers hope and comfort too.
I certainly hope that Medium isn’t going to be cancelled! This is my absolute favorite show. All this reality TV is getting to be very old. Medium is exciting, mysterious and takes you away from the fear of what’s really going on in this world. It’s a good entertaining show with great actors. NBC needs to really think this thru if cancellation is a consideration. I think it would be a huge mistake. Get rid of the reality shows and bring good entertainment! Medium is the BEST!!
When is Medium returning? I really miss it, and I am looking forward to its return.
I too love medium and Journeyman…I heard that Medium is only comming back online. Is this true….I agree-they tend to forget who watches shows on tv…its not all about the teeney-bopers.
WHERE IS MEDIUM?? IF CANCELLED; PLEASE RENEW IT. IT IS MY FAVORITE SHOW AND I LOOKED FORWARD TO IT’S RETURN THIS YEAR. THERE ARE A FEW SHOWS NOW ON NBC THAT DON’T EVEN COME CLOSE TO MEDIUM. REALITY SHOWS ARE NOT REALLY ABOUT REALITY! HOW CAN SUCH “B” SHOWS BE ON NBC AND A TOP CALIBER SHOW LIKE MEDIUM BE CANCELLED? MAKES NO SENSE AT ALL. THE ACTING IS WONDERFUL AND I LOVE THE STRONG FAMILY TIES THE SHOW PORTRAYS. WHO DECIDES THESE THINGS?
PLEASE, THINK AGAIN!!
I love this show. I have been looking for it since Sept.I’m so glad it will be on in January,although I hate to wait that long for it. I hate reality TV and wish they could come up with some good westerns and something beside all the CSI’s I like CSI,but not all the dozens of other programs of the same themes.
TV doesn’t get any better than this! (It puts most movies to shame, too.) The acting is superb all around, the suspense level is just right, and the relationships within the family are joyous to watch. For our family, there’s no other series that comes close. Go, Patricia! Go, Jake! Go everyone associated with this fine production. And come back soon. We’re counting the weeks!
I didn’t start watching Medium until last season. I got caught up through Netflix.
The reason people don’t see it is the time slot. People are getting ready for bed and it’s just starting at 10. It’s a superb show. One of 2 I make it a point to watch.
How could a show like this not be on? Greatest thing on TV outside of HBO’s best, and maybe it even hits that level.
Medium is entertainment for thinking people. Other than educational programming, this is the only series that I follow. Cut this program, and we’ve taken one more step toward the “dumbing down of society,” and we’ll have NBC to thank for it.
