Long Island Medium makes surprise visit, comforts grieving parents

Theresa Caputo shares some genuine tears with an Orlando couple in tonight’s new episode of Long Island Medium on TLC at 9pmET. Last week’s star–studded premiere of Long Island Medium was the highest rated and most-watched season premiere in four seasons (Jan. 3 marked the midseason premiere of the second half of Season 6).

In tonight’s episode (Jan. 10), Theresa surprises a couple from Orlando who share their heartbreaking story. A British woman named Adele tells how her son Warren was in Orlando on a business trip when she got a call from one of his colleagues who expressed concern over his whereabouts. Adele filed a missing person report and recalls thinking that the police better not show up at her house. “But at 6’o’clock that night there was a knock at our door and there was a police officer … he was killed in a hit and run,” Adele shares, sitting next to her equally grief-stricken husband. Theresa asks about the significance of a phone. The answer is shocking and helps the couple find some peace.

The hour-long episode will also continue to follow Theresa and Larry on their vacation in Florida. Theresa also goes on a golfing adventure with Larry, but — as always — there’s an unexpected turn of events when spirit shows up in an unlikely place.

Each episode this season will focus on a special theme, from tragedy in the line of duty and haunted homes to holidays and weddings. Later this season, Theresa salutes heroic police officers and firefighters, as she reads people whose lives were turned upside down in the line of duty – some by the devastating events of September 11th.
