Season 6
List of episodes

The seventh and final season of Medium, an American television series, began broadcasting September 24, 2010 on CBS. The seventh and final season ended on January 21, 2011. The season premiered to only 6.10 million viewers while the season and series finale got 7.87 million viewers the highest in over a year since 6.12 on January 15, 2010.

Production

Season 7 was the seventh and final season of Medium. CBS renewed the show in May 2010, but they put the show in the 8:00pm Friday Night slot replacing Ghost Whisperer. The ratings began to fall so by mid-autumn, CBS had cut the episodes from a full 22 down to 13.

The series finale credits the entire cast and their work on the show throughout the series. It shows each cast member as the set of the show is disassembled. Series lead Patricia Arquette, who played Allison, is the last one seen as the final set of the familiar show is removed.

Plot

Ariel goes off to Dartmouth College this season and we see little of her, but more of Bridgette and Marie, with Bridgette central to some episodes this season. Allison and Joe's relationship begins to dwindle a bit this season as we learn the two aren't seeing eye to eye on everything from work to the girls, to waking up to a "different" Allison every day. In Season Four's Burn Baby Burn Parts 1 and 2, Allison tells Marjorie (Joe's mother) that she will be fine, but the little white lie proved not true. Marjorie passes away from a brain tumor/cancer in Blood on the Tracks and she warns Allison about the darkness ahead of them. Lee Scanlon deals with his deceased brother for a few episodes and admits to Allison that he had let the woman kill him a few seasons back. Devalos decides to run for the Mayor and Allison and Joe both plan to enroll in school which has caused tension between them. Laura San Giacomo who played in the show Just Shoot Me guest stars as a neighbor in the episode The People in Your Neighborhood. Allison's half brother Michael comes back after a three-season hiatus, this time played by Patricia's real life brother David Arquette.

The series ends on a bittersweet note. Joe is killed in a plane crash on his way back from Hawaii, and we see how seven years later, Allison has become the assistant DA, Devalos has become the Mayor, Marie as a 14-year-old, while Bridgette is in college and not present in the episode. We also see a pregnant and married Ariel. While Allison is working on a trial, she seems to have visions of Joe actually surviving the crash but with amnesia. Allison makes a decision to find out where Joe is which sacrifices her own career and their lives in US. However, she ends up finding a startling truth! The series ends in 2052, which would be 41 years later as Allison is listening to her great grand child on a recording and she meets Joe as they both look like in the present. They share a passionate kiss which shows their love lasts forever.
