Emily Owens, M.D. is a show with a lot of heart. Unlike the other programs in this genre that debuted this year, Eo feels like a winner. The narrative is cohesive. It's quirky and smartly written, while still treating the medical cases seriously.
As the CW's foray into the medical drama arena, I'm giving it two thumbs up.
The pilot did a great job of explaining both the series and introducing the characters.
The premise is this: Emily starts the first day of a surgical residency feeling that she's finally "grown up." She's left the anxiety and insecurity of her younger years behind her. That is, at least until she finds that the hospital is an awful lot like high school. The issues of belonging, insecurity and jealousy remain as do the cliques, as Tyra Dupre, daughter of the hospital's Chief of Staff, points out.

Emily Owens has finally made it to the place in her life that she's been working 23 years toward. After having her nose planted firmly in textbook nearly all of her life, the former high school outsider has graduated from medical school and landed a first-year residence at Denver Memorial Hospital. It should be a time of celebration and self-congratulation, of Emily basking in the glow of her accomplishment and putting the knowledge that she's accrued to good use. However, the pilot of Emily Owens M.D. found Dr. Owens having a bit of trouble finding her footing on her new uncertain ground.
Will...You Be Mine?
Helping her in the journey to adulthood is Will Collins, her med school friend, co-worker at Denver Memorial, and crush. He's the first person Emily sees upon entering the pristine, multi-level hospital, echoing her fears of being on the bottom of the social food chain once again.

Catch the first episode before the October 16th premiere, and share it around so you can talk about it.
Think a less serious, more fun version of Grey’s Anatomy, with a more approachable lead, and without all the parts that make that show laughable.
