I think it would've been fine if they'd just been allowed to finish out the season.  Instead GGC was given only a few weeks and one episode to wrap up a 7-year-old show.  OF COURSE it was not going to be the finale we'd all want to see. As I mentioned before, GGC said in an interview (while he was still pissed about the cancellation) that he was going to burn the whole thing down.  And that's exactly what he did.  He went a little nuts and did something so completely divorced from reality that I kind of see it as a lark.  It was like he was just thumbing his nose at CBS.  I loved that they put in a disclaimer at the end that said the real Allison & Joe are alive and well and living in Arizona with their kids.  That was GGC's way of saying, "All that stuff you just saw?  Only teasing!"

Last night's episode had some cool "Ed" shout-outs.  One of the executive producers, Larry Teng, was a producer on "Ed" and is married to Lesley Boone, who played Manny's campaign manager on last night's episode.  She's been on there before.  I think she played a woman who was suspected of murdering her husband but it turned out to be Kelsey Grammer whodunnit.  She was one of the stars of "Ed", which is where she met her husband.  The name of the first murder victim, Warren Cheswick, is the name of the character Justin Long played on the series.  I hope I'm not the only serious Ed-head who loves "Medium", because I sure got a kick out of it.
