 NBC canned “Medium” and the lovely Patricia Arquette only to have the show brought back to life by those silly “Ghost Whisperer”(s) over at CBS. Now all we need is Roma Downey to join the cast and we can exit stage right and proceed directly to heaven.
CBS takes death very seriously. In fact, all this repetitive ghost stuff makes me think that they just don’t know when to kill a decent storyline when they see it. In other words, get rid of J.Love and keep Allison Dubois.

As expected, Heroes‘ season premiere (Heroes Volume 3) picked up from where it stopped. But the show has been away for so long that I’m not sure it’s relevant anymore. Before the writers’ strike, Heroes was one of the main reasons to watch prime time TV. When NBC stopped airing the show we had to find other things to watch instead, and we found. Medium, Dexter, Weeds, Mad Men and a few more showed that good TV can be done even without Hiro Nakamura.
Heroes is still a decent and watchable show, and I was pleased that last night’s episode was more eventful then the last 10 episodes of the first season together, but I would lose the ridiculous countdown-to-the-event show. It’s not New Years.

It has been so long since Heroes was on, that I almost forgot what it was about. In TV like in nature there is no such thing as vacuum, and since the writer’s strike brought the production of our favorite shows to a complete stop, we simply got used to watch other things on TV. It’s a given, that there is nothing out there that can replace The Office, especially not TBS’ 10 Items Or Less. But the question we’ve been asking ourselves lately is: Is Allison Dubois is the new Hiro Nakamura? Is Medium the new Heroes? Or is it just a generic pain killer?

 I’m sitting here watching the intro to NBC’s latest wunderkind, My Dad is Better Than Your Dad and wondering how they managed to depict kids in such an evil light. These competitive, bratty kids actually make their dads look passive and somewhat sympathetic comparatively, but isn’t it meant to be the other way around? Showing how unlikable the parents are that spawn such annoying kids. Who hasn’t seen Willy Wonka?
Anyways, I’m just happy that an all new Medium is back at 10 PM on NBC. With the writers’ strike kickin’ it in high gear over the last few months, I grew to immensely enjoy the acting delights of Patricia Arquette’s silly little show. Call me crazy but knowing there is someone else who wakes up in trembling in a sweaty panic over their work makes me feel a little less alone.
