I hope I am misremembering it all, because it felt like wobbly retcon, and that's what irritated me

yes, me too. I am hoping that Colby is a triple agent. Cause I love him and want to have hot sweaty horizontalness with him. Or verticalness, I'm not picky.

Yeah, I think he's going to have confessed for an ulterior reason and will be absolved this season.

They just reran the episode with the friend and no, it didn't make the finale make any more sense.

The only other explanation I could come up with was that the actor decided to leave and this was their way of writing him out.

I'm so glad SOME shows did reruns this summer. I thoroughly enjoyed Bones and am looking forward to the next season. They'd better rerun next summer, though!

Oh good, I'm glad Medium has moved to Sunday, but it won't until January? Bummer. Sunday night's the best night of the week for getting in bed and watching TV in real time IMHO - it's my "appointment tv." I really like this show. I'm definitely an old bat - I'm sick of shows where oost is The Thing (which means I might really hate Pushing Daisies, the Ultimate All-Oost, All The Time story by the look of it; but we'll see). I enjoy and admire Medium for having a recognizable real relationship. And I love the detail that when Allison and Joe talk in bed, they just talk - they don't reach over and turn on a light. I hate that in a TV show; it's so unrealistic.

NBC has Sunday night football which is why they have nothing on Sunday 'til the Spring.

I love the whole family on Medium. The marriage is one of the best on TV.

Sumi, you're suggesting that a network should adapt its schedule when it has live football in the mix? Horrors! If CBS did that, we wouldn't miss half of every Sunday night show.

[And I say that as a football fanatic, ftr. You don't see football fans making dinner plans for 6 pm on Sunday - why can't CBS figure it out?]

Well, to be fair: the NBC football is at night. The CBS football is in the afternoon. In theory, it doesn't cut into the evening programming -- even though it actually cuts into it about every other week.

Well it's still baffling to me that networks appear to not know how long a football game takes. I always set the tivo for a half an hour longer than their scheduled coverage, 'cause it always runs over at least a bit. Okay, not always. But still. I guess they just would rather have programming scheduled and pre-empt it than have football scheduled and need to fill.
