“Medium” returned last night with an interesting episode. Allison began having dreams of a deaf girl being kidnapped. This lead to her going deaf herself! The case ended up being what Cynthia Keener (Angelica Houston) was working on, and Allison was pulled in to help. It was interesting to see Allison having trouble communicating her dreams and relying on Joe. However as far as the case went, I was disappointed. The minute we learned the deaf girl was the daughter of a millionaire, I immediately guessed the father orchestrated it as part of an insurance scam to funnel money around. That is what it turned out to be, the step-father (played by the actor who played Rex on “Desperate Housewives”) was behind it all.

One thing that didn’t bore me in this episode though was Angelica Houston. I absolutely LOVE her character on the show, it’s a breath of fresh air. I’m really hoping that she’ll be kept around. I realize she probably has bigger things to do than TV, but I’d love it if she was recurring, popping up for a few episodes a season.
