New Amsterdam - Season 3

One of the best aspects of the season thus far is Max faces long-standing, systemic issues beyond his depth that aren't solvable in 45 minutes or less. It's OK not having all the answers or a quick solution or fix.

New Amsterdam - Season 3

I cannot lavish enough praise onto Tyler Labine, who is easily the MVP of the season. It feels redundant gushing this much, but the series is allowing this storyline to breathe and flow naturally at its own pace.

The trailer will make you emotional. NBC dropped a trailer for the season in early February and it showcases just how trying the upcoming season is going to be for Max and his staff. The trailer also teases that not everyone is going to make it through this trial. Have tissues nearby when you watch!

We'll see that pandemic episode at some point: This was alluded to in Ryan Eggold's opening sequence at the beginning of the last episode of the season, "Matter of Seconds." How that pandemic episode will factor into the next season isn't clear yet.

Created by David Schulner, the medical drama series is a must-watch on Netflix and stars Ryan Eggold, Janet Montgomery, and Freema Agyeman. Its fifth and final season is currently airing on NBC, with it set to conclude on January 17th, 2023.

The addition of seasons 1-2 now brings the United States on par with several other Netflix regions. Per Unogs, Netflix now carries the global distribution rights (with Netflix UK being a key exception) to New Amsterdam.

The series first made its premiere on NBC in September 2018 and came to an end in January 2023 with its fifth and final season. New Amsterdam nabbed a three-season renewal back in January 2020, which culminated in the remainder of the series.

Thankfully, we have some exciting news to share about the streaming home of New Amsterdam season 3 (and potentially season 4). Fans have some options when it comes to taking the next steps in their binge-watch, or re-watch, of the beloved series.

New Amsterdam moved to a 9 p.m. timeslot vacated by This Is Us at the end of March to finish its second season. Production on Season 3 had been delayed because of Covid-19 and related production shutdowns, and the series additionally had to build new sets.

When studios across America closed earlier this year due to the novel coronavirus epidemic, New Amsterdam Season 2 had 19 of its episodes filmed. However, when one of those was deemed "too horrifying" in our current climate, the decision was made not to air it. This means that the April 14 episode of the NBC show will serve as the season finale.

Hewitt, for those who didn't recognize the name popping up on their screens Monday, was a stunt coordinator who worked in film and television. He worked on 14 movies from the Coen Brothers, including The Big Lebowski and No Country for Old Men. On TV, he worked on every episode of the original Law & Order and 22 seasons of Law & Order: SVU. Hewitt also worked on 14 episodes of New Amsterdam.

Joining NBC's 2018 network TV lineup, New Amsterdam found itself in heated competition with other shows of its genre, such as Grey's Anatomy and The Resident. Unlike similar long-running procedural shows, the series faced nary a character exit or major character death, save for Dr. Vijay Kapoor (Anupam Kher), the head of Neurology whose actor left the series after season 3 to focus on his wife's health. New Amsterdam was refreshingly unique in the world of medical dramas, depicting wider storylines dealing with things like the hospital's medical debt and the influence of the state on the facility itself. Unfortunately, these offerings were not enough to keep the show going.

Unfortunately, poor ratings were responsible for the cancellation of season 6, with New Amsterdam season 5 hitting Netflix at an unspecified time and acting as the final installment. New Amsterdam was comfortably set in NBC's Tuesday night 10 p.m. EST time slot for all of its run and premiered its pilot episode to about 14 million viewers, including DVR recordings, with a rating of 1.8. The 1.8 steadily dropped over New Amsterdam season 1, ending at a 0.9 for the season 1 finale. Over the course of New Amsterdam seasons 1-5, both ratings and viewership on the network continued to dwindle.

The New Amsterdam series finale only brought in 5.2 million viewers, a far cry from the original 14 million, and its rating plummeted to an abysmal 0.3. The show simply couldn't compete with the likes of Grey's Anatomy, which has three spinoffs in the making, or The Resident, which has maintained its rating of around 1.0 across its six seasons despite time slot changes. Therefore, it was announced during the New Amsterdam season 4 mid-season break that season 5 would, unfortunately, be the show's last. If there was any indication before this, the seasons' oscillating episode counts might have been a clue.

New Amsterdam season 2 had an episode pulled from its lineup in March 2020, further shortening the season, as it depicted an influenza outbreak that was scarily similar to the real-life pandemic. The episode was never aired, as series creator David Schulner said, "The world needs a lot less fiction right now, and a lot more facts" (via Deadline). New Amsterdam is one of the many shows ending in 2023, and there were a lot of factors that led up to this point. However, the glaring problem was really the show's ratings and viewership numbers, which were on a steady decline from season 2 onward.

NBC's medical drama, which was renewed through season 5 last January, returns for another year of medical mysteries. But this time, the doctors at New Amsterdam Medical Center will be taking on COVID-19.

A recently released trailer hinted at a potential new romance between Shin (Daniel Dae Kim) and Sharpe (Agyeman), and the possibility that one of their own, Kapoor (Kher) may not survive the season as he lies in a hospital bed unconscious, on a vent and with major damage to his heart.

In a promo trailer for the upcoming season three episode, Things Fall Apart, a clip of Dr Helen Sharpe cradling medical director Dr Max Goodwin has led fans to believe that a romance between the two will finally be on the cards.

This meant that after March, the writers had to go back to the drawing board to create a whole new third season. Not only that, but they had to adjust filming to accommodate coronavirus restrictions and quarantines. Luckily though, because they film in NYC instead of LA, they were able to get back to filming without a hitch.

The Mandalorian premiered on November 12, 2019, and returned for a second season on October 30, 2020. The show was met with positive reviews from fans and critics and spawned several interconnected spin-offs, including The Book of Boba Fett, Ahsoka, and the upcoming Skeleton Crew. 041b061a72
