Medium Season Finale
Okay I have typed this almost 24 hours after the show, so I’m forgetting a lot here! Anyways last night was the season finale of Medium. I enjoyed the twist regarding the re-capatator case. We found out Jason Priestley’s character did in fact kill his wife! Then his girlfriend partner killed the other woman and planted the wife’s head, while Jason was in prison, in order to have him declared innocent. Alison figured it all out through her dreams, but because her secret was outed by Debra (Neve Campbell), nobody wanted to hear from her.
Manuel, the DA, ended up being forced out as his old friend took over DA temporarily. This was the man Alison dreamed took his job! Manuel headed off on a “fishing trip” while Lee was nasty nasty to Alison! I love that these people would call her at 3am when they needed her help, now they want nothing to do with her as she’s the “nut” from the paper. Jerks! Lee at least turned around, listened too her, and in the end Alison saved the day. Too bad Debra didn’t listen to her, as Jason’s character killed her. Fortunately she taped everything, and that was the proof Alison found to prove not only was Jason and his partner the killers, but she was right all along. The show ended with her storming the new DA’s press conference to reveal this.
What we don’t know is A) Will Manuel be back next season or not and B) How will her secret coming out affect things? Will people assume it was the ramblings of a lunatic reporter, or will she admit who she is and what she does and continue to work with the DA?
The other story of the night was Joe trying to figure out what to do about work. Because Alison had been exposed in the papers, the lawyer who wanted to represent him dropped him. Feeling he had no choice but to accept the settlement, Joe tried to go back to work . . . only to find out wasn’t welcomed back anymore! Joe now has no choice but to sue his former company.
So is it wrong that I’m actually glad Neve Campbell’s character got killed? It showed everyone that Alison was right all along, and that slimy reporter won’t be able to stab anyone in the back again. And I’m glad Alison found the phone, but how did the cops miss that? You could kind of guess that her murder was going to be recorded once she found that phone.

I won’t miss Neve lol. I was also fuming over how Lee treated Alison!

It was so weird to see him so mad. And then right after that, he did a complete 180 when he calmed down and listened to what she was saying. I can understand how he was afraid to lose his job, but I thought they were friends too. And where did the DA disappear to?

I missed this episode. I had it set up to tape but for some reason on my dvr player knows it didnt record it.
It sounds like it was a good episode too.

NBC.com plays them online if you have a high speed connection.

Also, the video player on nbc.com like IE better than Firefox. When I try to watch them on FF, everything locks up after a couple parts.

As I was watching, I kept thinking that they were setting it up so that Allison and her family would be forced to move from Phoenix and relocate somewhere else. With a fresh location and new jobs for Joe and Allison, that would open up a lot of new possibilities for the next season.
