Auld acquaintance may be forgot, but for us at TVLine, the year in TV certainly isn’t.
We reviewed the past 12 months of television fare and picked out what we loved, hated and couldn’t shut up about. We’re talking characters, plot twists, casting decisions, cliffhangers… everything from Most Improved Show to Most Ewww-Inducing Amputation Scene (for which there was an unsettling amount of contenders!).
If you click on the bottom photo, you get a seperate page with the caption, and then if you click on the thumbnail that appears under it on that page, you go to the next photo w/caption. And then on and on. It’s a pain in the neck, but you get used to it.
This. I bookmark this site on my mobile but this type of article annoys the hell out if me.
I’d rather they type out all the texts and remove the images.
Well at least, I’ll have ideas as to what’s happening before I log in with my PC.
I’ve given up on Tvline mobile. I’ll check the full version whenever I can, which will probably be a lot less frequently than using the mobile version.
This!!
Lexie’s death scene haunted me for days and made my eyes ball everytime! I thought George Omalley’s death or Denny’s death were the most tearful event in Grey’s history, but Lexie’s unexpected death left them all behind.
I agree with you guys. I sobbed. And usually I never sob when characters die. I just shed a tear when I like them, but the deaths on Grey’s were heart-breaking this year.
Kudos to “Most Disappointing Show : Gossip Girl” and I add worst season, worst serie finale!
And you should add, worst death or moment and it’s Bart & Chuck fight and Bart death, still laughing at it!
The Bart-Chuck fight and death scene was really bad. Also combined with the music. I don’t know but it was… really weird. The series finale was ok but the sixth season was just weak for a final season. They wasted too much quality screen time on irrelevant stuff like Serena and Steven or Steven’s annoying daughter. I am rewatching the first season and they were brilliant and juicy. I wonder how a show can lose it’s magic in such a big fashion.
Amen, Svenja,
Bart’s death scene was horrible, just like most of the last season. I agree, I didn’t hate the finale, it was okay, but nothing compared to the first couple of seasons.
I’m not exactly sure what the criteria was to decide the “best death”. But if you go by the internet exploding for a solid week, the winner would be Opie in Sons of Anarchy.
I agree that Joshua Ledet was really good, but if you’re going to choose one from Idol, it’s got to be Jessica Sanchez’s duet with Jennifer Holliday, right? That performance was ridiculous!
I would not honor any part of CBS’ bland Holmes update, Elementary. The Tiffany Network took the most brilliant and fascinating detective in all of English-language literature, plopped him down in the middle of some leftover The Mentalist plots, and made him as bland as any CSI or NCIS leading character. Thank God BBC is offering us Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman in a properly-updated Sherlock. It may only be three episodes every 18 months or so, but it’s so much better, I’ll accept the smaller doses. Elementary can’t even live up to the Robert Downey Jr. movie series. But at least Elementary can lay claim to one achievement no other Holmes adaptation can lay claim to: it’s made Holmes boring.
Speak for yourself…
Did you even watch the show after the first few eps?
Elementary is one of the best new shows in 2012 and
Johnny Lee Miller succeeded in creating a new persona for the detective.
And Lucy Liu, as a female Watson, may be the weirdest idea, yet it works like a charm and portrays one of the best non-romantic friendship in TV history.
I love UK original Sherlock and the movie version, but I’m so entertained with this weekly Sherlock on my TV.
If you have no idea how a show does right now, please refrain from giving a comment which can mislead others.
Agree! It’s a great show. All these BBC Sherlock snobs don’t seem to understand that there can be more than one take on a classic, and people with different interests can enjoy each, or both, versions.

Not to mention Sherlock is terribly overrated and only half the episodes are actually anything special.

Have you watched Sherlock? Because it absolutely in no way overrated.
Comment by Katie – December 27, 2012 10:23 PM PDT
I agree with Craig I’ve never seen Sherlock, and I have seen every episode of Elementary. IMO, it’s mediocre, mostly because of the bland mysteries. The characters have potential and the actors are fine, but this show fails to rise above average.
ITA, Craig. On Elementary, one must overlook the same name factor and look at it as just another Mentalist/Castle cop who isn’t a cop show. JLMiller always looks like an unmade bed. The plots are contrived. And Lucy L seems as defeatist as Lisbon on Mentalist.
Great list!! I totally agree about Elisha Cuthbert! And I was LOLing about Pretty Little Liars and it’s convoluted plot, I thought I was the only one who found that show nearly impossible to follow.
LOL! yes Tom because your comment doesn’t do the same exact thing? way to be a douche. it’s a show for teenage girls… as long as you’ve watched from the beginning it’s not hard to follow happy holidays!!!
I agree about Emily Owens, MD. It is by far the most quality show I have seen on the CW. I think that’s probably why it was cancelled – it wasn’t appealing to its demographic.
Hit the nail on the head regarding not apealing to its demographic…they wasted five extra seasons on the “great” Gossip Girl but cancel EO, MD…I guess it’s time for me to retire from the CW.
Emily Owens was dreadful. I choked down two episodes, and even with Justin Hartley, took it off my DVR. It had no redeeming value except Justin Hartley. Hope he chooses better next time.

Sure hope they do keep Benny around-someone for Dean and Sammy to use as an excuse to argue. I really want to see what happened in the restaurant with Martin. Can’t wait for January 16 to get here.
Comment by TexasGreatGrams – December 27, 2012 06:15 PM PDT Reply To This Post
No he wouldn’t. Dean, Sam, Cas and Bobby will always be Team Free Will. Benny is just a cliché. The most unoriginal new character of the season from any TV show. A vampire trying to be good. How many of these have we seen over the years? Angel was great. Spike was interesting. Benny needs to go. I’m tired of him already.
I also think Benny was the best new character in an existing show. It is so good to add such interesting characters to the most entertaining show (in my opinion) on tv today. And love the relationship between Dean & Benny.
Comment by TexasGreatGrams – December 27, 2012 06:11 PM PDT Reply To This Post
I agree! Loving the addition of Benny. The Dean, Benny, and Castiel scenes in Purgatory have been the most exciting things in several seasons! I hope they keep him around. I adore the relationship Dean has with him and I would love to see Dean, Benny, and Castiel team up again for more Team Purgatory adventures!
This. So much. The Purgatory sl has invigorated Supernatural in a similar manner as the angel sl did in S4. The writers of this show would be foolish of they didn’t give us a little more of that, even if it was just through a few more flashbacks. They were awesome-every single one of them. And YES! to keeping Benny around as long as they maintain that brothers-in-arms vibe that he shares with Dean. Those two are GOLD! when they hunt together.
Elyse, I must disagree with you completely. Did you want a “pretty” cry? He was heartbroken, and I was also heartbroken for him (even though Lori was my least favorite character). You might want to check your geneolgy to see if you’re related to the Tin Man.
I would also like to add Leverage as the most painful cancelation. Political Animals was good and it would have been my top pick if it wasn’t for Leverage.
Agreed. There were some very subtle things going on early in the season that led to the finale, many that even the long-time fans missed. The end wasn’t the usual “feel-good” soppy fare that TV often presents, but something that was meaningful.
We got a great ending *and* the path was cleared for a (potential) movie. Please, please, please. A movie!
Word.
In fact, just the reminder of it has me weeping about the end of this show all over again. 11 months today (Yep, never have I remembered the series finale date of a show before, but that damn episode was anything but forgettable.) and still reeling a bit. I say that’s a good sign.
I’m glad TV Line acknowledged it as a 2012 moment despite it occurring in the beginning of the year. Thanks, guys!
LOL Kurt and Rachel in NYC is going to get MORE boring and dull unless they add some more characters there. There is a certain limit to the heart-to-heart talks they can have about their mean teachers and boring love interests.
Could Kurt and Rachel in NY be better? Yes. But it’s still better than the rest of the show by a country mile. They need to move 5 or 6 more characters to NY and forget about McKinley.
I used to love NY scenes.
But then they ruined Rachel so bad, now she’s a hooker version of Lea Michele. That’s not the character I fell in love with since Season 1.
I’m hoping Season 4B will have less NY scenes.
McKinley is the heart of Glee.
That’s too bad if it’s true because the McKinley side of things is un-watchable. Marley is a snore along with most of the new characters. The scenes with her mother just remind me how much I miss Burt and Kurt scenes – Mike O’Malley and Chris Colfer are MUCH better actors. They haven’t been using Artie or Tina as much as they should. They are seniors right? Shouldn’t we be seeing more of them before they leave? Brittany’s singing in every episode, why? Sue’s been completely absent, but maybe that’s a blessing considering what they did with her last season.
The only thing keeping my quickly waning interest in Glee has been the NYC side of things, and I hope they buff up that side of things and give it more focus now that Kurt is at NYADA too. I wish we had gotten that spin off. I would love to watch that each week and not have to FF through all the McKinley stuff.
I’m with you on Rachel’s makeover – although I wouldn’t call her a “hooker”. If they wanted to make her look more grown up, great, but the makeover isn’t working.
Well, I think Glee is not as good as it used to be. Nor the music. So I watch Person of Interest. It is better.
Comment by KellyG – December 29, 2012 07:12 PM PDT
A really good thing that Glee moved to Thursday’s is that it became opposite of Point of Interest. I don’t have any guilt or remorse for not watching Glee anymore. POI is so much better and captivating. I really like Green Arrow and my favorite is a “comedy” called The Big Bang Theory.
Comment by KellyG – December 30, 2012 10:31 AM PDT
Agreed….Glee is definitely not as good as it was…I only enjoy it when the ‘graduates’ come to town (and really, they have that much free time to return to HS for shows??) I was glad to see Blake from Glee Project, but not really doing much with him (much like Rory from last season!) Hate most of the new cast (esp Kitty….evil love child of the old Quinn and new Sue Sylvester)
Worst part is, I still watch, but now it’s like watching a train wreck but in slow motion…part of me keeps hoping it’s gonna get better, but I know it won’t…..I guess with Ryan Murphy so busy with ‘The New Normal” and “AHS:Asylum” he’s forgotten about “Glee” and so have the writers!!
Comment by Mikey – December 30, 2012 11:58 AM PDT
Last time I checked Rachel wasn’t haven’t sex for money so… Also how exactly does one look like a hooker? Sure you have your streetwalkers, but then you also have your high class escorts. That’s a pretty wide range to cover with just one outfit.
Knee-high boots with shorts and a tight sweater made her look like a hooker.
Comment by Mary – December 27, 2012 05:35 PM PDT
OMG you’re totally right about Rachel! XD I always thought she has turned into a slutty Lea Michelle too. NY arc just made me snooze. My fave episode so far is when there are no NY scene.
I don’t understand you people. The NY parts of Glee are the only ones where I’m not constantly cringing They are by far what is best about the show. Admittedly the Brody storyline is fairly dull, but all in all, I’d still rather watch that than Sam and Brittney get fake married or Marley get “tricked” about her weight because she apparently doesn’t understand how clothes work! Glee is at its best when it mellows out, and stops trying to be completely over-the-top. That’s NY and that’s where the show should focus.
Comment by RachelA – December 27, 2012 08:22 PM PDT
I, too, think the new characters are bland, as compared to the original cast. I think the idea is to develope the new Glee club and then spinoff NYADA to a different show. Thus, the time spent on the newer Glee members who are all pretty much established as sophomores to carry Glee on for at least 2 more seasons until they graduate. Cory could go with either show, depending on where they take ‘Finn’. However, unless Artie, Blaine, Tina, Brittany and Sam all go to NYADA, it’s likely ‘done’ for them except for guest appearances. Based upon last year, Artie wants to become a director and Tina and Blaine would likely audition for NYADA. No idea about the fates of Brittany and Sam. I agree that ‘Tina’ and ‘Artie’ are very underutilized. As compared to the newbies, Sam Larsen should also worry about being on Glee next year – we know a lot less about him as compared to the other new characters!
Kurt and Rachel may be a bit repetitive, but at least it’s well acted. Glee needs to trim it’s overly large cast, keep (or bring back) its real talent and write compelling storylines for them. The focus on two locations is making everything more of a rushed mess than usual.
Rachel and Kurt definitely win the most annoying duo award. Kurt’s turned into a stereotype and Rachel’s still her everyday spoiled delusional self. Everyone I know can’t stand to watch the NY scenes.
My favorite episodes are the ones where Sam and Dean are at odds. I don’t know why but I like them fighting. I like them when they are united as well but I think they are most compelling when they are against each other.
Joshua can sing but he chooses to scream on ALL his performances. Slezak is so so so attracted to this kind of performance so you can excuse him for that choice.
Ledet is awesome – until he starts shreaking, then I’m out. Totally out. I’d take Phiillip Phillip’s doing the finale version of “Home” over any of it.

No Randy Jackson is. At the very least Britney says things direct to the point and L.A.can exaggerate but at least makes sense.Randy is utter nonsense. I’d keep Britney and L.A. over Randy’s “In it to win it” anytime.
Wow, I don’t watch 99% of these shows…many of which I never even heard of. I don’t know whether to be sad or happy about it.

Regarding your Most Underrated Show “Suburgatory”, I tried to watch that 3 times and thought it one of the stupidest shows on TV. Perhaps it got better with time, but IMO, the cast didn’t gel and the writing was subpargatory. I’ll stick to the comedies on TV Land, like “Hot in Cleveland”, “Happily Divorced” and “The Exes”. However, as far as The Most Underrated Reality Show, I don’t agree that it’s the best of those cooking competition type shows, but “Chopped” is definitely underrated, as is, again IMO, “Cupcake Wars”.

Agree 100% on Most spot on actress. Bailee Madison looks like she could be related to Ginnifer Goodwin.
ITA. And whomever does the casting really missed the boat by using Warren Christie as the bail jumper in the pilot because he’d have been perfect to play Henry’s father. The resemblance is uncanny.
Woot, an L.A. Complex fan!! I always thought it’s just a myth.
I love the show so much and really glad this site recognized it.
And we haven’t heard any news, whether it’s cancelled or continued.
But if it’s cancelled, then we’ll always have that Season 2 Finale when they wrapped up things so nice.
I thought I was the only person who watched this show. None of my friends ever heard of it and even when I told them about it, they didn’t watch!! I was glad that the finale for S2 tied up the loose ends; obviously writers knew the end was near…..most shows end/get cancelled and leave us feeling cheated!!
you are talking about CW here, remember that… Show that keeps a sinking ship like GG on air and cancels exciting and fan favourite shows like Secret Circle and Ringer!
Now you’re just assuming she DIDN’T get her memory back. Nothing in the series finale ever indicated that, though. And if you watched the show at all for the past 5 years, it’s obvious that they’re not in the business of making meaninglessly depressing stories for their beloved characters. If anything, it’s the lightest and most family oriented action/romance/drama show I’ve watched. They juggled many things, but there’s a huge heart at its core always.
I, for one, believe it was intended to show that Chuck and Sarah were easily on their way to ‘happily ever after.’ Sure, it may not have been packaged in a neat bow and spelled out so obviously, but knowing the characters, it’s more than a reasonable conclusion.
I think we’re just not used to series finales asking us to use a little bit of our imagination. I personally admired that they chose not to be predictable but bold and daring instead for an epic series closer.
You can “believe” anything you want but the fact that they left the single most fundamental part of the series hanging at the end is an insult (and I think an intentional one) to the fans.
You’re right that the series was light fun happy ending TV so why go dark and negative at the end?

Most underrated show: Hart of Dixie. snappy dialog, fun plots, character development, and great acting/direction. No sophomore slump!
Absolutely. This show has actually gotten better since it’s first year, which was fun in and of itself. Looking forward to it starting up again after the new year.
Agree with you Cindy, Heart of Dixie is quite a little gem of a show. It makes me very happy when I watch it. It’s just a little slice of heaven in a cynical world.
If this year hadn’t been the last season of GG, I would’ve dropped it off my TiVo. THe last couple of seasons have been horrible and I was just stickin with it til the end. They never made ‘Nate’ interesting. Dumb to have Blair and Chuck seperate until the end. The only thing I liked about the finale was the vision of the future, but the rest of the season was miserable.
There should be an award for Series Finale Written By Monkeys, which would of course be awarded to Gossip Girl. It was so full of fail, especially with Serena calling GG ‘a love letter from Dan to the whole UES’. Um, no.
Serena is so stupid and they didn’t even try to make her smart. When she said Gossip Girl was a love letter from Dan I wanted just one of them to slap her across the face. So Dan was so in love with you that he wrote nasty things about you and your friends for the better part of a decade? Dan was a glorified internet troll and all GG taught the world is that sometimes internet trolls do get the golden girl.
Co-sign “most undeserving sophomore slump” label for Homeland; I still averaged like 4 heart attacks an ep, and the finale blew me away (no pun intended). So what if Brody wasn’t killed. I have to agree with Gansa & Co that the Homeland universe is a little more interesting knowing Brody is still out there somewhere.
Moreover, “Q&A” is definitely the best single drama episode. Dare I say it earned Claire Danes and Damian Lewis a couple of SAGs and Golden Globes to go with their Emmys.
As for The Good Wife; how could such a smart show make such a stupid mistake with Nick? I still can’t get over what a clusterf-ck that storyline is/was.
And Peggy better still be around on Mad Men. If Megan gets screen time while Peggy’s side-lined, lord help me…

can we add Doctor Who. The Xmas special left a me screaming for the spring. Can’t stand Moffat and his cliffhangers.
Agreed! Doctor Who just keeps getting more clever and suspenseful. Moffat ups and ups the stake, it’s fantastic. I thought having the Ponds gone would make me lose a bit of interest, but he was so smart to include a much intriguing mystery around Oswin Oswald that we’ve no choice but to keep coming back. That Christmas special was the best we’ve had in years.
Leverage finale was good but it was only like 41minutes and Chuck was 44minutes and extended version 50minutes, also Leverage didn’t wrap stories about back-stories and there was a bad goodbye… Chuck was Awesome it tied everything nicely. Both series ended with a possible continuation where fans can imagine what happens next. Both also brung familiar/old faces back on the journey. OVERALL CHUCK IS THE BEST SERIES FINALE OF 2012 !!!!!!!!!!!
Quick question. I don’t watch SOA but can someone please tell me how they made those boobs look so REAL on Walton Goggins?!! I almost choked when that pic popped up.
i wish that revenge would just focus on the main plot instead of having all of those useless subplots that have no relationship to the MAIN plot. emily to focus on taking down the people who wronged her father. i think that the show would improve a lot if they got rid of pada, aiden, declan, jack and kenny and perhaps just drop the stoweway storyline thats why the show isnt as good as last year because the stoweway is a big part of this season

I really don’t like the best death scene choice. Sure it was made to look sad but I, just like most of the TWD fanbase, just didn’t give a crap about Lori. To be completely honest, T-Dogs death scene was way better because he went out like a hero. My choice would be either the Ponds on Doctor Who (so sad!) or Moriary on BBC’s Sherlock (I just didn’t see that one coming at all!).
As much as I hated Lori, and I hated her so much, I think her death scene was moving. However, it wasn’t her dying that moved me, it was Carl, in that moment leaving his childhood behind. I was moved for Carl and his loss not for Lori dying.
I think the The Good Wife’s Nick has taken more hits than necessary. A remarkable actor should not suffer because of a showrunner’s creative direction. Definitely took a chunk out of the enigma that is Kalinda and filled the void with plain confusion. I hope she did kill him. Something could come of that. Otherwise, I have no reason to lose faith in this show. If only Network television could be this marvellous across the board. Thanks CBS.
As for POLITICAL ANIMALS, I think this will hurt USA Network’s credibility as a legitimate, competing cable network. It’s the only production to rise above the digestible fluff they have become experts at churning out. Such a wasted opportunity. My vitriol filled the blogosphere on that sad day. They had me. They lost me. Try again USA…if you can. You’ve come a long way from SILK STALKINGS, though.
Talk to me, Mike. You know I love thee.

Best series finale –> One Tree Hill!!!!
I agree on Worst New Character on an Established Show (Nick, we all hated you!!) and Most Underrated show (Suburgatory!! <3 <3 <3)
Definitely the best. I just about died laughing. I actually had to rewind it to make sure I wasn’t hallucinating, and then I called someone else into the room to make sure I was seeing things properly. Funniest cameo EVER.,
Most Underrated Show: Suits
Most Improved Show: Agree with Dexter
Most Disappointing Show: Vegas
Most Underrated Actor: Andrew Lincoln all the way… Also Jake Johnson (New Girl)
Most Underrated Actress: I like the happy endings mention (the whole cast could be in there) but I have to go with Jennifer Carpenter. She has been criminally underrated for years, but this year it has been her best year yet
Most Undeserving mention of sophmore bump: Homeland and Revenge
Best Comedy Duo: Penny and Sheldon (The Big Bang Theory)
Best Single Episode (Comedy): I agree with Community
Best Single Episode (Drama): Killer Within (The Walking Dead) (I love Q&A as well)
Most Convuloted Plot: The Grey’s Anatomy Doctors sue the hospital
Best New Character on an Established Show: Hannah (Dexter)
Worst New Character on an Established Show: Nick (The Good Wife) all the way
Best Series Finale: House
Most Ambitious Ill Fated Show: Last Resort
Best New Show No One Watched: Last Resort Again
Most Spot On Casting: Could not agree more
Cancelation that Hurts the Most: Terra Nova
Most Clueless Character: Andrea (The Walking Dead) and Jack (Revenge)
Best Death Scene: Lori (The Walking Dead) all the way
Best Cliffhanger: I love Scandal but gotta give it to Dexter
Biggest tearjaker: The Sheldon episode (Private Practice) or the premiere (Grey’s Anatomy) or Killer Within (The Walking Dead)
Best Character Transformation: Rick (The Walking Dead)
Most Annoying Character: Declan Porter (Revenge) or Huck (Scandal)
Why does the Grey’s “doctors sue the hospital” plot confuse you so much? It was thoroughly explained and seems pretty simple to me.
Most annoying character: Declan sure sucks.
Most disappointing show: Vegas is pretty bad. OTOH, it airs on CBS, so any viewer should pretty much expect an hourlong non-reality show on that network to be yet another dull effort.
Because it’s dumb and would never happen in the real world. Hospitals have administrative staffs and this is who would have procured the airplane, thus being responsible. Seattle is not a one horse, third world city.
Best Finale is Chuck?? You have got to be kidding! A great show that went out by basically saying the last 5 years didn’t happen, at least as far as the Sarah the fans loved is concerned. Even for those who say “They’ll fall in love again” it’s still going to be a different person who does it. The fans stayed intensely loyal for 5 years and the producers gave them the finger at the end. How is that a “Best Finale”?
Do you believe that Chuck and Sarah were meant to be? I do. I know that no matter what they will find their way back together. It wasn’t a big flip off from the producers. They want you to…USE YOUR IMAGINATION! Imagine what comes next for them. They beat the odds once, they can do it again. You just have to believe in love.
If I wanted to use my imagination I’d read a book.
Ok maybe that was a little snarky, sorry.
Chuck was at heart a fairy tale and Dang it I wanted my happy ending, not the “You decide what comes next” copout that so many pretentious hollywood types use to duck out on giving a series a real ending
It was clear throughout the finale that Sarah’s past memories were slowly returning… Hence the reason she remembered the Demova virus, and the arrangement of the cups at the Wienerlicious…Clearly here memory wasn’t lost for good just slightly submerged deep in her mind. I think it was right to sort of leave it off with people wondering..Setting up the perfecet set-up for catching us up if and hopefully when the make the CHUCK movie. So glad to see TVLine recognize CHUCK for their selection on this list..Congrats on a choice well selected TVLine. Viva La Buymoria!!!
Benny deserves it. The relationship between him & Dean is the best thing in season 8. Everything else is so flawed, but Benny they did right. God please let him stay in this desert right now.
Benny is nothing but a plot device. A point of contention bettween the brothers. A manifestation of Dean’s “ideal” brother. Yay for Dean. The writers need to get the Winchesters on the same page once and for all, and the quicker the better.
How could Chuck be named Best Series Finale? I love that show, but the finale was really disappointing. I didn’t watch many shows that ended last season, but imho the best was Eureka, which had a happy ending and tied up all lose ends. Runner up would be One Life to Live, which was also really good and payed homage to its 40 year history.
Comment by Elizabeth – December 27, 2012 12:12 PM PDT Reply To This Post
I absolutely agree. Eureka had a GREAT finale and it was even more impressive when you think about the fact that they got the series cancellation notice just as they finished what they thought was a regular season finale. They managed to get one extra hour out of SYFY and managed to produce a nearly perfect ending including the call back to the first episodes Carter/Zoe seeing themselves when they came into town for the first time.
I have to disagree with most annoying character. Charlie from Revolution is by far the worst part of that show. As much as i love Revolution, I would love to see her get killed off.
Word. Charlie has Elena Gilbert syndrome. Super annoying, always making terrible plans to get herself killed and nothing (in her own mind) is ever her fault.
Back-to-back series premiere: Anne Heche ('Hung') stars in this comedy as a pretty terrible wife and mom who survives a near-death experience to find she now receives messages from God.
happy holidays!!!
