The Mob Doctor has essentially been cancelled and now The CW has officially cancelled Emily Owens, MD. The network has revealed that they won’t be adding to the initial 13 episode order and won’t be asking for a second season either.
On the positive side, all 13 episodes of Emily Owens will air. Hopefully this means that faithful viewers will get some kind of closure to the drama’s ongoing storylines.
The news doesn’t come as a surprise. Emily Owens got off to a poor start and the ratings haven’t improved. This season’s Arrow has proven that the tiny network can still produce new hit shows — at least by their ratings standards anyway.
Emily Owens, MD revolves around a young physician who discovers that her new workplace isn’t all that different from her days at high school. The series stars Mamie Gummer, Justin Hartley, Aja Naomi King, Kelly McCreary, Harry Lennix, Necar Zadegan, and Michael Rady.
What do you think? Are you a fan of the show? Are you sorry to hear that it’s been cancelled? Why do you think it failed to attract a bigger audience?
I am sorry to hear that the show was cancelled – I hope another network picks it up….
I love this show … it’s sad to see it go!
Dang….CW is not a network I have gotten used to watching yet. But I’ve seen this show a few times and really liked it. Like someone else said about hoping another network picks it up….I agree. Great show, hope it stays on somewhere.
Everytime there is a refreshing show on it is canceled….what a shame.. you show all of the reality shows but a feel good show is canceled.
This is just wonderful…another GREAT show cancelled….I just don’t understand how shows like Honey Boo Boo, Say Yes to the Dress, any of the Housewives shows can still be on air and shows like Emily Owens, MD get cancelled….someone needs to get a grip! Bring it back…if not on the CW then on another channel…..please!
I just discovered this show, and have watched all the online episodes. I love it, and am really disappointed about the news. I never saw any ads for it, so I didn’t even know about it. I hope another network can pick it up, it is a great show, not stupid funny like so many others, and still serious too. A good mix. A good cast too. W
hat a shame!!!
I was in desperate need of a show like this (funny, quirky, well-done drama without being too serious) and was thrilled when I started watching after my sister insisted I check it out. It does seem a little out of place on CW but that doesn’t matter to me. I’ve been getting my friends to start watching and it’s really disappointing to read that it’s been canceled. It would be a shame for something this perfect to just disappear.
It is a great show! I love it and am truly disappointed it’s being cancelled. I stumbled upon it by accident. No advertising for it that I recall and its found only on one network. Unfortunate.
I agree that this is a great show very sad to hear ir may NOT be continued !
This isn’t a show that is meant for the CW. The CW and a show about doctors? It just doesn’t mix. Emily Owens, MD is kind of like Scrubs or Grey’s Anatomy, and it would do a lot better if it were on a different network.
This is an excellent series with a great ensemble cast – love the premise and the story lines. Please do not cancel this show. There is humour and a lot of touching scenes. KEEP IT ON THE AIR – PLEASE – I HATE REALITY SHOWS. Why are excellent shows such as “A Gifted Man” from last season always cancelled??? Emily Owens deserves to be on the air. It has a fanbase!! Give it a chance!
I hope some other network pick-up the show..One of the best shows ever!An intelligent show.
This is one of the best shows this year. It is not violent and deals with the topic of bullying. We see Emily, who was bullied, meeting the bully,Cassandra, in their adult lives. Seeing the bully squirm as she begins to feel Emily’s substance is worth the watch.
Well maybe the raitings are not so great cause some people including me, watch the series on the internet since we dont have the time to watch the show when it airs, if they dont want to have the show on the air then at leats put it online.. where can we sign the petition?
It’s getting to the point where I don’t even want to watch a series until it’s been on for a couple of years because so many don’t get past the first 13 episodes!
I was disappointed when Off the Map was cancelled and happy to see Mamie Gummer again in Emily Owens, MD. I really enjoyed the characters and will be sorry to see it go. Boo hiss CW and I’m NOT watching the replacement show!
