So I am combining “Ghost Whisperer” and “Medium” into one. “Medium” I realize I haven’t done a post on since the debut, but I find it hard to talk about sometimes when there is no story arch that’s advancing the plot. I find myself having the same issue with this week’s “Ghost Whisperer” as it clearly was a stand alone episode this week.

“Ghost Whisperer” was about a computer genius (Chad Lowe) who basically locks himself in his house and is haunted by an ex-girlfriend who had his baby but never told him. It was a different twist on a story I’m almost positive the show has done before. It really didn’t make any headway with the hospital ghosts at all, it was simply a stand-alone episode. While not bad, it wasn’t great either.

“Medium” meanwhile has been a string of stand-alone episodes since the debut, with a few advancements made. Allison is slowly getting better, regaining the use of her hand and the side of her body that was paralyzed. Joe meanwhile is working at a new job for a genius who doesn’t really want help, but has to use his budget so hires people to sit around and do whatever they want. Joe is slowly convincing the guy he can be of use to him.

I love Joe’s new haircut (finally!) and I also love seeing the kids used more. It’s so funny to hear Marie actually talking as much as she does. She didn’t talk for so long and now she doesn’t shut up!
