Ugh. I'll probably give it one more episode next week, since I believe Rene Echevarria will be running the show with Caron and he's pretty good, but what a waste of a lot of great production values on such a thoroughly stupid idea.
I mean, just beyond my being skeptical over the whole medium thing, anyway, what is her ability? Talking to dead people, "sensing" random information, seeing the future, what? How do you make the stories anything less than arbitrary with all she can do if the story demands it? How many different ways are we going to see Miguel Sandoval repeat what the Texas Ranger said about not being able to get a search warrant based on Alison's visions?
It's too bad, because this does seem to be pretty well-made; I'd just like to think the talented people involved could do something more worthy of them.
