PASADENA, Calif. -- The show may be called Medium, but that's one maximum coma.

The season finale for Medium on NBC last spring ended with the lead character, played by Patricia Arquette, in a coma.

"Well, obviously, we pick up with Allison's coma and I guess I can let the cat out of the bag: She comes out of the coma," executive producer Glenn Gordon Caron said at the Television Critics Association tour.

"And she's on a different network! It's the damnedest thing!"

Medium has been picked up by CBS this season.

"That (being at NBC) was all a bad dream," Arquette added.
