Emily Owens

In just a few words: I am in love with all that this show has to offer. From the very first episode, I was hooked. The topics that the show touches on and the actors performances enthrall me. I find myself completely entertained every time I watch this new take on a medical drama. Not only is it witty and fun but it is heartbreaking and thoughtful. I've enjoyed every episode that has aired thoroughly. Mamie Gummer is engaging. I love the awkwardness and naïveté that she brings to the character of Emily. The fact that the audience is able to hear her thoughts throughout each episode is brilliant. I'm truly saddened that this show has been canceled. I was looking forward to many more episodes and much more awkwardness in the future.

I can say at my age I have seen many shows come and go and hope this show stays at least 7 seasons. The characters are pleasant without being syrupy. Even the mean ones show the reason for their behavior. Emily at first seemed a bit strange but has developed into a believable young person making her life (mistakes and all.) The main reason I like this show is it makes me smile and thats the key. I did recognize most of the actors from other series and that's why I started watching in the first place. Mamie Gummer caught my interest when she did off the map another series about her being a doctor and set in a tropical setting so I was enjoy it and found it had been canceled. Love the guy who plays Micah and have seen him in several shows also. They also show another doctor who bosses the new guys around in the ER but not sure if I've ever heard his name but seems interesting. The key for me is this show makes me smile so please keep it going.

You know...I have been checking out a lot of the new premieres for shows this season and it's a relief to find one that is so good. I guess I am realizing some of the qualities that I look for in a show. Kind of done with shows that are cut together for the 15 - 22 year old short attention span with violence on the side, etc...

I really enjoy shows that are about the character's everyday life: where they came from; the experiences (good and bad) they are going through and watching those characters develop and change as the series progresses.

I love the lead character! "Emily Owens" is someone you can relate too and and is very likable. There is so much material to work through with her character and her willingness to grow. And since one of my favourite shows "House" ended last season, this provides enough medical investigatory type problem solving to fill that void. Plus the show deals with social issues as well to make you think about how you would handle things.

Love the inner monologue that we get from Emily as well...clever & witty.

The rest of the cast looks fantastic and the writing was great. Honestly - if you are looking for a show (in a hospital setting) that is a relief to watch and enjoy; one that is about relationships and growing in those - than this will be for you.

Mamie Gummer does a fantastic job...her humour is natural and subtle. Love it! She is lovely to watch.

Excited to see where the plot lines go with Justin Hartley and Michael Rady as well. Great actors! (easy on the eyes too!) ;-)

That's my 2-cents. Looking forward to enjoying this show...so happy that it's on! Hope it does well!

I have been watching Emily Owens MD for several weeks and looked forwarding to seeing it every week. It wasn't on for last couple of weeks and I am hoping it wasn't cancelled. It was one of the best new shows I've seen in a while. Then I saw something about it was being cancelled. I hope it's not true. It wasn't on long enough to give it a real chance. I thought it was a really good show. I thought Dr. Necar Zadegan who plays the strict boss was very good, and so was Cassandra and Justin Hartley and Rady. Mamie Gummer looks so much like her movie star mother Meryl Streep that I knew right away who Mamie's mother was. I like Mamie and think she is a good actress.I know of many TV shows I wouldn't watch which are popular, yet they cancel Emily Owens MD which I liked better than most of the popular TV shows. They shouldn't have cancelled it. I think it could have been successful. What a letdown.

2/24/18. I really loved this medical comedy series! Sadly, it only lasted one season. Why? While watching the pilot I just knew I would watch the whole series. The premise was so novel - surgical internship as high school all over again. Gummer did a fine job as Emily Owens, who gets to do an internship with her medical school crush (Will) while dealing with Cassandra, her nemesis from high school. She gets to have a great friend in Tyra, a gay intern with daddy issues. Their relationships are the ongoing backstories for the 13 episodes, while dealing with at least 3 medical cases in each episode. Though it was so formulaic, the familiarity offered viewers the opportunity to focus on the dynamics in each case. The season ended with enough loose ends to keep the series going as the writing was really good. Catch it, even it just lasted one season.
