The Good Doctor is getting ready to start its fourth season on ABC, and some big things are coming for the premiere. Actress Carly Pope is set to guest star on the medical drama in the two-part season premiere. Freddie Highmore, Antonia Thomas, Hill Harper, Richard Schiff, Christina Chang, Fiona Gubelmann, Will Yun Lee, Paige Spara, and Jasika Nicole star in the series.
Variety revealed the following about Pope’s role in the season four premiere:
“Pope will portray Lily, a woman whose husband has become sick with symptoms that mirror those of coronavirus. The premiere, which focuses on the effects of COVID-19, will include Lily’s increasing frustration at not being able to stand by her husband’s side due to safety protocols in place.”
ABC shared the following details about the season four premiere of The Good Doctor:
“Dr. Murphy treats a patient who has an illness that is not only unpredictable in nature, but also unlike anything he or the team has seen before; Dr. Claire Brown continues to work through her grief, still reeling from Dr. Neil Melendez’s death.”
The Good Doctor returns on November 2nd. Check out the preview for the season premiere below.
What do you think? Are you excited for the return of The Good Doctor on ABC?
Love this show & glad it’s coming back. But I do agree that killing off Melendez was a huge mistake. However, getting rid of Carly was great! But Leah is not the girl for him!
I’m pretty much done with them. Killing off Dr. Melendez was uncalled for, he was the only really grounded character on the show and was a fan favorite. I hate when shows do this. I know there are a lot of fans of spacey Lea but I don’t see her and Shawn as a couple, not in the long term.
So glad it’s coming back, great show, great actors
Finally my favorite show is coming back!
Excited about the show returning. Sad Melendez is gone, though. I really liked him.
Yes that saddens me to. Such great actors and actresses.
So excited. I love love love this show
Hell Yes! I can’t wait to see the first episode in the Good Doctor’s new season.
I think it is awesome that they include this stupid pandemic into all the shows. Why should we sugar coat any of it.
Very Excited for The Good Doctor to come back!!
Not as excited about The Good Doctor this season. Dr Melendez was my favorite character. Big mistake killing him off, in my opinion. Don’t know if I’m interested enough to watch it this season.
We hope the Good Doctor comes back soon minus his wishy washy girlfriend .
I probably will not enjoy the show that much any more. It was a bad idea to take off Dr. Melendez. He was the charm of the show !!
Hell Yeah!!! I can’t wait, Excited!!!!
Can’t force myself to finish season 3 🙁
I am not excited at all about the new season..In fact I probably won’t watch it. I totally didn’t want Melendez and Carly’s Characters to be taken out of the show. I also did not want Shaun and Lea together. For me the show is ruined….
