Emily Owens, M.D.



When I first saw previews for this show, I wasn't too thrilled about it. It looked kind of dumb even. I wasn't even going to watch and I was still mad about Ringer. I started watching the show just to see what it was like and was pleasantly surprised by how funny, cute and entertaining it was. It's funny one minute and serious the next. All the characters are entertaining and interesting. Of course, because I started watching, it was cancelled. That seems to be the case any time I like a show. The shows I don't care for end up being on for years and the shows I love end up being cancelled right away. The CW didn't even really give this show a chance. Maybe it's because they have more shows lined up and want to air them instead. I'm not even going to watch Cult at all until I find out if it's going to be on longer than how many episodes. If it lasts then I might consider watching the episodes online, but if it doesn't, then I'll have nothing to miss. I'm tired of watching new shows, only for them to be cancelled right away for one reason or another. It seems like CW keeps cancelling shows just because not enough people are talking about them. If it's a good show and you love it, then there's really nothing to talk about or more likely bitch about. I love all the characters and they really didn't get a good chance to establish them all. I'm sure there would be more to talk about after you got to know them all and find out who you wanted to be with who. I love the cute little love triangle or whatever it is. I love Emily with Micah and I love her with Will. I love that she loves Will, but he's with Cassandra and Micah likes her and she doesn't know it. I thought the show was just going to be a comedy, but it's so much more and I love it all. I'm grateful that they're even airing all the episodes. The CW could have just dumped it and moved on. But they are dumping it and I doubt anything will save it. The CW won't even promote the new episodes at all, but whatever. I'm just going to finish enjoying it until the end.

Supernatural Is Torn And Frayed


Yes, Supernatural is torn and frayed and so is Sam and Dean's relationship. The first part of this episode was boring yet again. I almost turned the TV off after watching Sam and Amelia and their boring scenes together. Jared and Liane Balaban have zero on-screen chemistry. I've never seen worse chemistry between two actors on any show I've ever watched. There is just nothing there and no romance to the story at all. I'd rather see Sam be with someone who helps make the romance scenes sizzle. Maybe the writers intentionally made this romance boring, for what purpose, I have no idea. I don't see the point of it at all, nor the relationship Dean had with Benny. Here's something that concerns me with what happened. Sam and Amelia had sex, so I hope to hell she doesn't turn up pregnant and not know if the baby is Sam's or her husband's. I really will drop the show if this happens and I could see the writers doing this. I certainly don't want the worst female character ever to end up with Sam at the end of the show. I'd be sick to my stomach. Or, Amelia will be pregnant and some monster will kill her and the baby or be after them.
And I'm still wondering if Sam's time with Amelia was real or not. Dean never met her in person the way Sam met Benny. I'm sure she's a real person, but did Sam really spend time with her or was it all in his head.
Amelia saw Sam outside the window. I don't know how because he was in the shadows. I look out the window from a distance and I can't see anything and if I did, it would just be a shape. So how did Amelia know that was Sam outside her window and how did she know he'd go to that bar so she could meet him.
Also the writers tried to make it sound like Sam kept showing up there in Texas. Amelia hasn't seen Sam for months and she told him, how could she move on, if he keeps showing up. Dean kept showing up at Lisa's door. We saw him do it how many times. I could understand when she said that to Dean, but not Amelia.
And the fact that Sam and Amelia just hopped into bed after not seeing each other for so long, is really goofy. When Sam told Dean that he had to go clear his head, did he just imagine Amelia going to that room and not finding him. Where you actually saw Dean talking to Benny and telling him goodbye? The writers made Benny more real and they made Amelia more unreal and unrealistic. I'm hoping and praying that's the end of Amelia, but I really fear it's not. I know it's not the end of Benny, yet. Hopefully, that will happen because I'm sick of Dean making friends with how many supernatural beings and then basically Sam has to be friends with them as well or else.
Castiel was the saving grace for the show once again. I loved all the scenes he was in, but the rest were crap.
I don't care about stupid tablets that are supposed to be the word of God. The whole story with Kevin and the tablets is boring and stupid. Naomi is interesting because you wonder if she hasn't been the one pulling Castiel's strings all along since he first showed up to Dean. Who was really giving the angels orders in Heaven? It sure wasn't God. Naomi probably was the boss of Zacariah even and pulling his strings. I hope this storyline goes somewhere, otherwise it will be stupid.
I feel nothing when Sam and Dean are together anymore. I used to think they loved and cared about each other, but now I don't. Even having them fighting this season over crap is stupid and pointless. It does nothing for either of their characters. Dean was supposed to have changed from going to Purgatory. He seems the same to me. Every season, he is the exact same. Sure he might drink heavy in one season and then not in the next, but he's basically the same. He never changes and still acts the exact same way.

Supernatural is torn and frayed and I blame Jeremy Carver for this. He's the worst show runner ever. He's made the show boring and like a soap opera instead of what it once was. The show used to be about Sam and Dean hunting monsters and fighting evil. Now it's about them fighting each other and boring scenes with them with their new lovers or whatever. There's hardly any action or excitement anymore on the show. It's just talking and boring empty dead scenes. I used to get excited to watch an episode again right after it aired. This season, I haven't even wanted to re-watch one episode. If I do go to watch one, I only watch certain parts of it and then I turn it off. I doubt I'll be buying the DVD set when the season is over. That will be the first time in seven years that I don't want to buy them. I used to get so excited and I'd run to the store. Doubt that I'll do that, unless the last episodes really are good. Otherwise, there is no point. I still love the show and all the past seven seasons. Hopefully, Carver pulls his head out of his butt and delivers something good like he did in season 3.

My Favorite TV Shows Of 2012


1. ONCE UPON A TIME
I started watching this show after my sister told me about it. I'm sure glad I did. I love it and it tops my list of favorite shows for last year. Mr. Gold/Rumpelstiltskin is my favorite character.

2. VAMPIRE DIARIES
Loving the vampires this year. Love Stefan and Damon and the fact that even though Elena comes between them, they still act like brothers is one of the best parts of the show. Love the whole cast and every episode either surprised or shocked me in some way.

3. ONE TREE HILL
It was the end of a great show and it never disappointed me. The ending was excellent and all the last episodes wonderful and entertaining. Didn't start out loving this show, but ended up loving it more than I thought I would. Dan Scott was the best and my most favorite character of this show and Mark Schwahn did not fail me.

4. RINGER
I absolutely loved this show and of course it was cancelled. Sarah Michelle Gellar was awesome playing two roles and I was always wondering what was going to happen next. Doubt this show will ever make it back on TV, despite all the die hard fans wanting it back.

5. CELEBRITY APPRENTICE
I loved this show from the first episode to the last. I laughed so hard watching almost every episode. It was a great way to start my week off. Was happy that the final two were Clay Aiken and Arsenio Hall and it didn't matter who won between them. Loved that Aubrey O'Day because she made me laugh, but I'm glad she didn't win cause she was too full of herself. I also love all the Trumps.

6. SUPERNATURAL
It's sad for me to say that this show is in sixth place. I loved the episodes at the start of the year, but towards April and May, they sucked. My favorite episode was The Born Again Identity and mainly for that I loved the show. The start of season 8 was boring as hell and Dean and his new brother Benny and the stupid flashbacks of Purgatory did not entertain me. Also, Sam and the boring love story flashbacks with Amelia were almost as bad. The show has gotten a little better and I'm hoping for better episodes this year.

7. GOSSIP GIRL
Sad, but another show I had to say goodbye to this year. It ended up great though. I loved that Chuck and Blair were together in the end. I really didn't care about Dan and Serena, but they were okay as well. Loved how Dan was Gossip Girl. That was funny. I loved how the show brought back a whole bunch of characters for the ending. I'll miss this show as much as One Tree Hill.

8. AMERICA'S GOT TALENT
I love this show because of all the variety. You'll never know what you're going to see next. I was happy that the dogs won because they really had talent. I still miss Piers Morgan, but Howard Stern turned out to be a surprise and is a pretty good judge.

9. EMILY OWENS M.D.
I really love this show and of course it was cancelled because CW won't give any new shows a chance anymore. Just like Ringer this show is in the tough time slot of Tues. Doubt CW will ever find anything that's going to get the ratings they want. I'm going to watch this show to the end because CW is running the final episodes at least. I loved this show because it was serious, cute and funny and I've even cried while watching it.

10. THE VOICE
I discovered this show this year and I love it. I love Blake Shelton and I loved watching all the talented singers. The blind auditions are my favorite part and you love to see who the judges will turn their chairs around for. I'll be watching when it makes it's return because it's very entertaining, even though two the judges are leaving, Blake is still there and that's all that matters.

11. BEAUTY AND THE BEAST
I really like this show, but I've missed how many of the episodes for different reasons. I'm still not totally into it yet. Love the beast a lot and the story is pretty good. I can't wait for it to come back on and then I'll get back into it. It's a new show, so I'm very wary of loving it too much because if I do, I'm sure The CW will cancel it as well.

12. MALIBU COUNTRY
I just started watching this show about a month ago or so. It's pretty good and it's great to see Reba back on TV. I love watching Lily Tomlin as her mother on the show. She's a laugh and a half.

Okay, that's all the shows I can think of that I watched in 2012. I sporadically watch other shows, but these are the shows I watched the most.
