What’s This TV Show About?
Airing on the ABC television network, The Good Doctor TV show stars Freddie Highmore, Hill Harper, Richard Schiff, Christina Chang, Fiona Gubelmann, Will Yun Lee, Bria Samoné Henderson, Noah Galvin, and Paige Spara. Recurring players include Savannah Welch, Brandon Larracuente, and Giacomo Baessato. The series revolves around Shaun Murphy (Highmore), a young autistic savant who’s a surgeon at the fictional San Jose St. Bonaventure Hospital. He uses his extraordinary medical gifts to save lives. He also challenges the skepticism of his colleagues like Dr. Marcus Andrews (Harper), Dr. Morgan Reznick (Gubelmann), Dr. Alex Park (Lee), Dr. Audrey Lim (Chang), Dr. Jordan Allen (Henderson), Dr. Asher Wolke (Galvin), and Shaun’s mentor, Dr. Aaron Glassman (Schiff). Lea Dilallo (Spara) is Shaun’s recent bride and the head of the hospital’s IT department.
Season Six Ratings
The sixth season of The Good Doctor averaged a 0.32 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 3.34 million viewers in the live+same day ratings (includes all DVR playback through 3:00 AM). Compared to season five, that’s down by 20% in the demo and down by 10% in viewership. While these numbers don’t include further delayed or streaming viewing, they are a very good indicator of how a show is performing, especially when compared to others on the same channel. There can be other economic factors involved in a show’s fate, but the higher-rated series are usually renewed and the lower-rated ones are cancelled. Find out how The Good Doctor stacks up against other ABC TV shows.
The Good Doctor has been renewed for a (final) seventh season which will debut on February 20, 2024. Stay tuned for further updates.
Telly’s Take
Will ABC cancel or renew The Good Doctor for season seven? The show is a reliable player in the traditional ratings, and episodes often more than double their viewership once the live+7 day ratings are added in. As long as Highmore wants to continue, I think The Good Doctor will be renewed for a seventh season. I’ll update this page with breaking developments.

Don’t cancel this show. It’s one of the few that isn’t too dirty to watch.
This show is definitely a keeper! Love it

OMG I hope don’t take this show away I’m patient in bed I can’t walk and this show made me cry made me laugh and made me joy please do not take it away it’s super awesome that we still have something like this emotional and this track for everything that happened in the whole world
My favorite show. Hoping it returns.
I love this show. Originally I thought it followed unrealistic plots, well aware that this is a tv program. As newer shows progressed many messages were woven into story. Great actors. Please continue this show. Thank you.
I don’t think it’s coming back because I just don’t think it’s
I absolutely love this show. Every week something happens with so many twists in the show. Please don’t cancel. The best freshest doctor show on tv.
Love this show
We will stop watching the Good Doctor if they continue to have story lines like last night. Every creature deserves to live! Too much of taking lives of animals to benefit others is so wrong! They have a right to live too!
I agree, and to bring a living animal to a hospital to be killed there?
The pig didn’t die, the man that didn’t like hospitals adopted the pig. The bunny in season 1 was the only animal that die.
Please renew this program. It is unique and keeps you interested.
Renew it. I cant get enough of a person with that kind of handicap being a smarter doctor than those who have been at it a lot longer!!!
