The Paley Center for Media – New York

Emmy Award–winner Patricia Arquette’s Allison DuBois is a wife, mom, and consultant to the Phoenix D.A. who just happens to get nighttime visions of violent crime scenes and who, yes, sees dead people in Medium, Glenn Gordon Caron’s eerie, innovative NBC murder/mystery series. The tone of the show is anything but flip: It is distinctly chilling, from the opening credits to the slick nocturnal scenes. The Paley Center will screen an unaired episode, which is Arquette’s directorial debut. Then Arquette will discuss her Emmy-winning performance as DuBois, who is based on a real-life, self-proclaimed medium by the same name.

Patricia Arquette Poses for PETA’s Newest ABC Ad

Patricia Arquette might play psychic Allison Dubois on the NBC hit drama Medium, but Patricia knows that it doesn’t take a psychic to see that companion animal homelessness is a serious problem worldwide. That’s why the Emmy Award–winning actor posed beside the tagline “Envision a World With No Homeless Dogs or Cats” in PETA’s beautiful new ABC ad.

Every year, more than 7 million dogs and cats are turned in to U.S. animal shelters. Almost half of these animals will be euthanized because there aren’t enough good homes for them. Horrified by those statistics? Good. You should be horrified, especially because the solution is as easy as ABC—animal birth control.

Putting an end to the animal overpopulation crisis is something that everyone can help with. Always spay and neuter your animal companions, and never buy animals from pet stores or breeders. And if you plan to make an animal a lifelong member of your family, adopt him or her from your local animal shelter.

Check out what Patricia had to say about why she wanted to help with PETA’s ABC campaign and what people can do to make their animal companions happier. Here she is in her own words:

PETA’s Animal Birth Control campaign was created to help put an end to the animal overpopulation crisis through spaying and neutering and encouraging adoption of animals from animal shelters rather than purchasing them from breeders or pet shops. Why is this campaign important to you?
One of my best friends is a woman named Whitney Smith and she works with the REVA foundation… She’s constantly rescuing animals… and she’s educated me about the horrors that animals in Los Angeles face. Half a million dogs and cats are put down in California every year—[one] every three seconds… I had heard over the years people say, “I don’t want to spay them before they have a chance to have babies.” There are half a million animals in our own state who are killed every year just because people want to have that experience.

What are some things that people can do every day to make their companion animals’ lives a happy one?
Play with them, kiss them, pet them, walk them. Take them out whenever they can. Let them have adventures. Smell the world.

What other animal issues are close to your heart and why?
I don’t like fur… My mom had a [fur] jacket from the 50′s … But the concept of buying fur today doesn’t make any sense to me. I’ve seen people in fur coats, and in my wild mind, I’m hoping someone will throw red paint on them!

`Medium’ star Patricia Arquette files for divorce

Patricia Arquette has filed for divorce from her actor-husband.

Arquette filed for divorce from Thomas Jane in Los Angeles on Monday, citing irreconcilable differences. The couple, who were married in May 2006, have a 5-year-old daughter, Harlow Olivia Calliope Jane.

Arquette, the Emmy-winning star of the NBC show “Medium,” is seeking custody of their daughter, with visitation rights for Jane.

Jane, who appeared in the 2007 film “The Mist” and 2004′s “The Punisher,” was placed on a year’s probation in September after pleading no contest to a drunken driving count in California’s Kern County.
