The last medical drama that aired on FOX, The Resident, ran for six seasons on the network, but very few TV shows last that long. Will this new medical series be one of the lucky ones? Will Doc be cancelled or renewed for season two? Stay tuned.
A medical drama series, the Doc TV show stars Molly Parker, Omar Metwally, Amirah Vann, Jon-Michael Ecker, and Anya Banerjee, with Scott Wolf and Patrick Walker recurring. In the story, Dr. Amy Larsen (Parker) is a brilliant Chief of Internal Medicine at Westside Hospital in Minneapolis. After a late-night car crash results in severe head trauma, Amy wakes up from surgery with no recollection of the past eight years. She learns that she and her beloved husband, Dr. Michael Hamda (Metwally) have been divorced for four years and her entire family is not at all as she remembers them. Amy’s best friend, neuropsychiatrist Dr. Gina Walker (Vann), is hopeful but does not know if Amy will ever recover her memories. In Amy’s fragile state, Gina must choose carefully what information from the past eight years to reveal to her, including her secret romance with Dr. Jake Heller (Ecker), since Amy now has no recollection of ever meeting him. Amy’s colleague, Dr. Richard Miller (Wolf), has now been promoted to take over Amy’s job and is desperate for her memories not to return since she was the only person to uncover his career-ending mistake. Amy’s previously unkind behavior left her with several enemies at the hospital, including Dr. Sonya Maitra (Banerjee). While she does remember Dr. TJ Coleman (Walker), she does not recall that he became a doctor – nor that it was she who inspired him to do so. Feeling entirely off balance and having to piece together her past through the prism of other people’s subjective points of view, Amy is determined to become a doctor again.

What do you think? Do you like the Doc TV series on FOX? Are you glad it has been renewed for a second season?
I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE DO. We’ll scripted, amd great acting. The story line is also great. It’s familiarity but also different. I hope we get MANY, MANY, MANY more seasons to cone. This has become one of my FAVORITE tv dramas.
My new favorite show!!!! Please Renew!!!!!!!!!
Absolutely 1000% love this drama. Filmed beautifully and acting is solid and genuine with realistic story lines. I’ve never watched a medical drama before and so glad my husband asked me to watch this one! Superb!
Great show, with good acting, love this new show!
Great story, great cast! Fox has a hit on their hands.
Episode two:
It seems she’s still the delightful person she was before her car wreck, which she caused by using her phone while driving. Ironic behavior by someone who considers herself to be better and smarter than everyone.
And not one word of gratitude to her loyal and ever-helpful friend. Delightful.
We enjoyed the joy, good script and we’ll acted. Will keep watching.
In california we haven’t been able to watch any shows. All we have to watch is CA burning down. This is not a fair rating. CA is a big state and there’s noting but the fire on every major channel.
Where have we seen this before?
Brilliant doctor with the bedside manner of Atilla the Hun.
Arrogant, and despised by colleagues.
Aging, but having a sexual relationship with someone young enough to be their child.
But wait! This time, it’s a female! It’s DEI time yet again, boys and girls! Yey!
To be fair many medical show are VERY similar. And it does have some differences. But, I understand your comparison to house MD. So far they aren’t shoving it in our faces if they are trying to be woke. To be fair in the real world their are many people that act similar to another. And she doesn’t have a team if doctors behind her. So it is different . Plus its based on an Italian show. Can’t speak for how exactly the same the American version is to the Italian version. We do need to be mindful of our… Read more »
