What do you think? Have you seen New Amsterdam? Are you glad it’s been renewed?
I watched the entire season one of New Amsterdam and now Im left to wonder who lived or died in the ambulance accident…this sucks and I think NBC should have just gone into season 2 and not just left fans hanging in the dark for so long…just like with Manifest…this sort of thing stops me from watching any other series until I see the end of these two
Love this series. I saw something that said it would be on on Sunday nights. Is this repeats? When will the new season start?
Love NEw Amsterdam. Thank you for its return

I absolutely love this show!!!
As a physician, I love this show I am glad to see it is renewed for season 2.
I loved this amazing portrayal of what happens when you charge for health care love the characters please let’s have next series soon
As an RN for 40+ years, I have fallen in love with this series, the characters and the message of how our medical system should always put the patients first and the financial gain second. New Amsterdam is the best medical drama since ER. I tape the weekly shows so I can go back and re-watch several times before the next episode! Thank you for reminding us how patients are the “stars” of our broken system before the $$$$$!
I came across New Amsterdam while browsing shows on Hulu. I instantly fell in love. Each episode touched my heart. I hated to see the season end. Happy they renewed it for another season. Each episode was worth the tears.a 10++ rating from me.
love the show
As an RN for 40 years I am really enjoying this series. If only our health care system could be run for the benefit of all. We need real leaders like those portrayed in this show. Thanks to all of you.
This is one of the best shows in a long time. I don’t watch much TV but this one has my vote as a great most see.
Absolutely hooked on this show…going through withdrawals until the new season starts!
We are hopelessly hooked on New Amsterdam! Can’t wait for Season 2 to start.
