Taming of the Shrew
Animation comes to Medium

Medium's creator Glenn Gordon Caren is finally getting to play out some of the ideas he came up with in his days as a Moonlighting writer. Remember all the cool, wacky Moonlighting episodes? The film noir episode. The Taming of the Shew redo. Turns out Caren had wanted to do an animated episode back in the day. Technology, cost and opportunity have finally aligned to revive the animation idea - this time for Medium. Johnny Bravo creator Van Partible has contributed 2-D animation for the show's two-hour third season premiere to represent the psychic dreams of Allison's daughter Bridgette. The cartoon dreams start out comedic and get increasingly darker when, you know, death nears.
They should dole out all of Moonlighting's old ideas to any show that needs a jump-start for sweeps week. Now, if only Medium would take on Macbeth.
