“Medium” came back last night. Wow was it very different from the other seasons. Miguel is out as DA and wasn’t in this episode at all until the very end. Scanlon was relegated to kindergarten cop basically and was ignoring Allison. I really hated the way he treated her, because she had done so much for him and the DA! The new DA is just a jerk.

Allison’s hubby is out of work, as is she, and money is tight. She was having dreams about a missing boy in this episode, but nobody to tell! Scanlon finally wised up and started listening to her, but it was too late, the boy was dead. This was one of the more gruesome episodes, having the little boy found stuffed in a toy box. Gross! I wasn’t expecting that at all. I hope this isn’t setting a gory precedent for the rest of the season.

Angelica Huston joined as an investigator for an organization called Ameritips. She thought Allison was a nut, until all her tips panned out at the end and she realized she was a psychic. Angelica gave her a big fat check basically as a retainer. I think I’m going to like this partnership. Angelica’s character mentioned to Allison she was a bit intuitive too . . . . was that a hint that she has the gift? I couldn’t decide.

Miguel returned at the end of the show from his vacation, deciding he’d open up a law firm. Next week’s previews seem to have him doing that, and trying to hire Allison to work with him. At least he’s not turning on her. I still however think the new DA is dirty, something is going to come out with him and I think Miguel will end up back in office.
