Medium is a lost gem from the aughts. Though it didn't enjoy the same kind of fame that similar crime shows with supernatural themes like The X-Files achieved, the show is extremely well-written. Following Allison, a psychic medium who receives dreams from the dead to help law enforcement solve crimes, the show has many genuinely touching, thrilling and hilarious moments. Many Medium fans rewatch the show throughout the years, even long after it has wrapped.

Medium isn't just entertaining; the stories have been praised for their originality and ability to reach deep into viewers' hearts. Like most long-running shows, Medium went through some changes over the course of its seven seasons, leaving some uneven performances. However, the show maintains its high quality and never fails to surprise fans with mind-blowing plot twists in every season, which is quite impressive.

Season 6 Picks up From Allison's Brain Tumor Scar

“The vibe is so different this time around,” Enhypen’s leader, Jungwon, tells The Hollywood Reporter on a Zoom from Seoul, South Korea.

Enhypen – comprised of members Jungwon, Heeseung, Jay, Jake, Sunghoon, Sunoo and Ni-ki – released their second full-length studio album Romance : Untold last week, with “Xo (Only If You Say Yes)” serving as its lead single. Perfect for the summer, the Jvke-produced synth-pop track is a sweet and romantic anthem, a lighter affair than Enhypen’s typically darker pop offerings.

“This time around, with this album, all seven of us participated in writing the lyrics, and Heeseung actually wrote and produced a whole song,” Jungwon explains, hyping up his fellow group member.

The seven-piece boy group, hailing from Korean entertainment company Belift Lab (a subsidiary of entertainment conglomerate Hybe), were formed through the music survival show I-Land. The show, a joint venture between Hybe and Korean entertainment giant Cj Enm,...

Enhypen’s growth trajectory over the past four years is impressive, yet not surprising, given how hard the members have been working. Jungwon, Heeseung, Jay, Jake, Sunghoon, Sunoo, and Ni-ki have been on their Fate Tour since July of last year (with the encore leg, dubbed Fate Plus, still ongoing). That doesn’t mean their other activities are on pause, either. In the couple of months leading up to the release of their second full-length album, Romance : Untold, Enhypen have held a fan meeting in Manila, performed at Weverse Con Festival in Seoul,...

A family adventure comedy has topped the 2023 edition of The Brit List, the U.K.’s version of The Black List for unproduced scripts.

Earning 22 recommendations, Keri Collins’ Super Gran — based on the British children’s TV series (which had a theme song performed by Billy Connelly) — led a total of 13 scripts that made the final list, which this year required a minimum of 12 recommendations for inclusion. For the first time since being established in 2007, the 2013 Brit List — which over the years has included Oscar winners including The King’s Speech, The Danish Girl and The Favourite — combined both film and TV scripts.

“What an exciting year! Thirteen scripts, from fourteen fantastic writers have made it onto The Brit List 2023. And I’m particularly delighted that this year three feature scripts have topped the List — the first time since The Brit List combined both film and TV scripts. I’m hoping...

Henry Blake and Xiao Tang’s ’The Golden Radiance Of A Beetle’ also made the list

Keri Collins’ family adventure comedy Super Gran has topped the 13-strong Brit List 2023 for unproduced scripts from emerging UK talent.

Collins was a Screen Star of Tomorrow in 2014 and won the Welsh Bafta Breakthrough the same year for his feature debut Convenience. Super Gran surrounds a 12-year-old with dyslexia who reluctantly goes to stay with his Scottish grandmother only to discover she has superpowers and needs his help to bring down an “arrogant tech bro”.

Next in line with 18 recommendations is The Golden Radiance...

This is the K-Pop group’s second world tour and they are performing 24 songs on the setlist. The tour will stop in five more cities across the U.S. over the next month, including Glendale, Houston, Dallas, Newark, and Chicago.

Canadian artists across the country have been patiently waiting to see if they’ve been nominated for the country’s biggest music prize — and today the Juno Award nominations have finally been revealed!

The Weeknd and his album Dawn FM have emerged with a field-leading six nominations for the 2023 Juno music awards, Canada’s version of the Grammys.

The Canadian pop star who penned “Nothing is Lost (You Give Me Strength)” for Avatar: The Way of Water, will compete for best artist, best pop album, Juno Fan Choice award, best single for “Sacrifice,” best album and best songwriter. The Weeknd’s participation in the Junos, with Dawn FM put into contention, also comes as he continues to snub the Grammys stateside.

Avril Lavigne and fellow Canadian songstress Tate McRae each nabbed five nods, while Preston Pablo and The Reklaws came away with three nominations each.

Nominations for the Junos were unveiled during a press conference in Toronto on Tuesday. The Juno Fan Choice competition will see Lavigne, Lauren Spencer-Smith, Pablo, Reve and Shawn Mendes compete against McRae, The Reklaws, Tyler Shaw and The Weeknd.

In 2002, Avril Lavigne’s skate-punk aesthetic and emo-but-energized angst quickly made her the queen of the aughts pop-punk revival scene. Since her third album, 2007’s The Best Damn Thing, she’s ebbed and flowed, dipping her toes in bubblegum pop and more self-serious pop rock. Her seventh album, Love Sux, brings her back to her roots, bridging the gap between her early emo vibe with the bubblegum confidence that brought her away from it.

Lavigne packs the album, which is just under 40 minutes, with ferocious energy. She partnered with ska-heavyweight-turned-pop-punk-whisperer John Feldmann (5Sos,...

After seeing the poster and reading up a little on Bite Me I was expecting a romantic comedy in the vein of Life After Beth or Warm Bodies – obviously replacing the zombies with vampires. But that’s not what Bite Me tries to be.

It’s a much more serious movie than I expected it to be. There is some comedy but things are kept straight for the most part and the romance between a vampire and a human is the main focus of the movie. It’s still not quite the movie that it mentions occasionally (Twilight) but it’s perhaps closer to this type of film.

Real-life vampire Sarah is due an audit, which turns out not so good for her and her vampire pals. At...

Hello, dear readers! We made it through January (finally) and now we have four new weeks of VOD and Digital releases headed our way throughout the month of February.

Laguna Ave (Arrow) - Exclusively on Arrow February 1st

Russell, a burned-out television editor and middle-aged slacker with a prosthetic hand futilely searches for work in Hollywood's brutal, exploitative underbelly. His former boss owes him money, his partner Rita is always out of town and inaccessible, and his new downstairs neighbor, Gary keeps him awake at night with mysterious, disturbing noises.

What do an IRS agent and a vampire have in common? Besides the fact that they’re both bloodsuckers, they both deserve love, am I right? This sets the stage for Bite Me, a subversive rom-com certain to strike a chord with sentimental horror fans. Give the trailer a spin at the top of the article. […] The post Trailer: An IRS Agent and a Vampire Fall in Love in Bite Me + “The Joyful Vampire Tour” appeared first on Dread Central.

This past weekend, on March 10th, marked 22 years since Buffy the Vampire Slayer first aired on The WB. 22 years! I can’t believe it’s been that long.

Buffy is one of my favorite shows of all time, and I’ve recently been watching it again with my daughters who have been loving it! It’s so funny to watch them react the ‘90s era of the show.

To celebrate and mark the occasion, Sarah Michelle Gellar, David Boreanaz, Nicholas Brendon, and Charisma Carpenter all chimed in on social media.

Vertical Entertainment inks deal with Devilworks.

Vertical Entertainment has picked up rights for North America on Demon Eye, the UK supernatural horror, from genre specialist sales agent Devilworks.

Starring Darren Day and Ellie Goffe, the film is based on an 1850s tale of Witchcraft in Saddleworth, UK. It tells the story of a young girl who returns to her father’s country house in the Moors following his mysterious death. There, she finds a cursed amulet that will grant her greatest wish, but at a price.

Given the exponential growth in popularity of comic conventions in the past decade of so, it may seem like there’s nothing that can stop them — and Oni Press’ new title The Long Con looks to put that to an extreme test. Cbr has the first details of the July-debuting series.

The Long Con combines convention culture with post-apocalyptic fiction, and is written by Dylan Meconis (writer and artist of Bite Me!

On August 16, 2013, I finished the first draft of my second feature film, “Bite Me.” Today, on August 12, 2017, four years and 48 drafts later, I am riding the subway to our first day of production. But the story I am telling begins far earlier and, with any luck, will last far longer.

I have this memory that still guts me when I think about it today. I’m sitting in a movie theater as a middle-schooler and watching “The Princess Diaries.” I’m not sure if you remember that film, but at the beginning the central character played by a young Anne Hathaway is supposed to be a mega-nerd. To indicate the depths of her social pariah-hood, they made Anne wear glasses and frizzed her hair out a bit. But, if you’ve ever seen Anne Hathaway, you can probably imagine that, even in this state, she still, you know, looked like Anne Hathaway.

Harry Potter actor Christian Coulson is set to star in the indie romance comedy Bite Me, along with Naomi McDougall Jones, (Imagine I'm Beautiful), Naomi Grossman (American Horror Story), and Annie Golden (Orange is the New Black). Meredith Edwards is directing the film, the first title from Blue Firefly Films and Twin Dragons Productions, from a script by Jones. It follows 29-year-old Sarah, who is part of a (real-life) fringe subculture of people who identify as…...
