NBC’s ‘New Amsterdam’ to Conclude Next Season

NBC medical drama “New Amsterdam” has been renewed by NBC for a fifth — and final  — season. The abbreviated final season will consist of 13 episodes.

Debuting on September 25, 2018, “New Amsterdam” follows Ryan Eggold as Dr. Max Goodwin as he becomes the medical director of one of the United States’ oldest public hospitals, aiming to reform the neglected facility by tearing up its bureaucracy to provide exceptional care to patients. Freema Agyeman, Jocko Sims, Janet Montgomery, Tyler Labine, Anupam Kher and Daniel Dae Kim also star as medical professionals in the understaffed and underfunded facility, navigating their own personal and professional journeys.

“The story of Max Goodwin and his never-ending commitment to patients at New Amsterdam has been inspiring,” Lisa Katz, president of scripted programming at NBC, said in a statement. “We’re so grateful to David Schulner, [executive producer] Peter Horton, and our cast and crew for their incredible dedication, talent and collaboration.”
