This show has held so much appeal for the regular American (and maybe others!) family. There was such TRUE love between the characters of Joe and Allison, and so much concern, love, and family values that were displayed, were incredible. The bringing forth of the children's lives was very evocative, and very heartfelt. Of course I was distraught--at first--at the outcome for Joe, but nearing the end, I felt a sense of peace... relieval... hope for the couple that so much loved each other. And that, to me, is quite the story. In all, I believe that "Medium" was such a winner, and I am SOOOO dismayed that I will not be able to "visit" the family after now. I felt comfort in them, and I think that comes from the great acting and writing. Who can fault them? No-one, is my best guest. I love this show, and I shall heartily miss it. I wish the best for all of the actors. They are QUITE talented.
CBS was trying too hard. Trying to be sobby happily ever after. Seriously they should had ended at Lee's wedding. Then maybe down the road they could reboot it. But with Season 7, they might as well just bury it.
They people who give this below 8-7 are literally so ungrateful of this amazing show that is 10+ years old,imagine how hard it was to make a show and actually air and gain audience back then when you couldnt promote it on social media for example. And now for the people who gave this below 6 ages ago,you should watch fear the walking dead and its garbage reboot.
For all those ripping apart this final show, I understand. It left me feeling empty too. I though the whole drug cartel this was kinda stupid - especially Allison blowing the case at the end -- so I'm glad that was all her imagination. As to those hating Joe dying young: folks, a whole lot of people over 7 seasons had to deal with the death of a loved one. This was the first time Allison had to REALLY share all that grief she saw every week as (simply) a first-row spectator.
That's ok by me; in fact it was kind of poetic.
I DID hate all the time wasted on the cartel story, and that was my biggest complaint. We could have done with LOTS more of the family moving on and coming to terms with Joe and how through much courage, life went on.
And for those complaining Allison didn't meet eternity as an old woman in the clothes she died in - remember, all those folks died sudden, violent deaths. Allison's was the first old-age natural death we saw.
Besides, Kathy Baker got a few different looks after death, even her hair changed I think. Same with her husband, although without the hair.
NOW - for the ending - it's stolen. GO rent an awesome film: "The Ghost and Mrs. Muir" with the beautiful Gene Tierney and the dashing Rex Harrison. It's identical: everything except the spit-swap. No kiss, but a walk hand-in-hand into eternity. It's worth multiple watches; this is a film site, after all.

As you may have already guessed by my episode title here, I was not at all pleased with the conclusion of this series. Let me just say that there are just so many plot flaws and really idiotic twists and turns in this particular show that it is not only a mess, but it makes you WANT to forget it all. The best thing about it was the closing where the entire crew has a chance to say goodbye and let you see them through the years. I don't want to give spoilers, but I do have to tell you that besides lazy "climactic" points that have become so cliché, the "solution" the writers (three of them it took to write this nonsense, including the creator of the show) gave the audience made you wonder if they just put the script in the blender and made a dreadful frappé that even a dog wouldn't digest. If anyone is interested and wants to write me, I would be more than happy to share with you my own version of what would have been a better script, because frankly, I've seen better writing in a Dick and Jane first grade primer than what we had here.
A waste of a good cast and a once great series that got sloppier in this last season. I can only think that the producers were so upset they weren't renewed that they just threw this together figuring "what's the point anyway?"
I gave it a two instead of a one only because I liked seeing Patricia Arquette and Sofia Vasilleva again looking so fine the both of them.
