New Amsterdam

Excellent feel-good medical show. Very political, in a way that will displease conservatives, and I'm 100% OK with that. Actually, New Amsterdam is the medicine that medicine needs. You can't have good medicine if you belittle your patients, you can't have long-term efficient medicine if you don't go down to the root social causes that make people sick, and you just can't have medicine at all if you don't let sick people reach you because it's expensive and that your public health system is broken - by design. New Amsterdam, won't just gloss over that.
Yes the plots aren't so realistic. Yes everytime everything goes fine in the end because Max has a genius idea that spontaneously and immediately works and leaves everybody happy. And what? Why should all modern shows be sad, pessimistic and remind us the shitty life we already live everyday, letting us think it's normal and that we should passively accept what we endure?
The show is a invitation to be good, kind and attentive to each other, have trust, respect and faith in others, stay optimistic and fight for our lives and rights.

This is an outstanding show. I haven't been so engrossed in a show straight from the pilot in a long time.

Hospital dramas aren't my usual forte, I picked it up after a recommendation from my daughter and from following Ryan Eggold in The Blacklist and loved it.

The whole cast is excellent - all very different and highly complex.

I just don't do medical dramas at all.
Or at least I didn't until now.
Great acting and great but diverse characters.

I 1000% recommend this show! The actors in it are AMAZING!!!!!

One of the best out there at the moment in relation to hospital drama

Not sure why we are still following Max storyline when he is in England, unless he is coming back to New Amsterdam. 🤔

Definitely one of the better Hospital Shows. At least the Pilot suggests it.

I know that Freema Agyeman and Ryan Eggold are good Actors (Although I hated his Character in The Blacklist).
Janet Montgomery plays her Role as the ED-Doctor Laura bloom very well also.

So all in all a great cast, leaves to hope that the writers were able to keep it up after the Pilot.

We need a new great Show in a Hospital, now that Greys Anatomy is short of Flatlining and the start of the new The Resident Season was a bit weird [spoiler] (another hacker attack via Phone, really?!?)[/spoiler].

The diversity in this cast just works. I did not think I would like it because I was not a fan of Ryan Eggold but I love him in this role.

There are so many things to like about this series. The writing has depth. A superb cast. It puts the spotlight on the medical issues of our day. The personal dramas keep us rooted in the series. It's optimistic tone is a drink of cold water in a parched desert. I give this series an 8 (great) out of 10. [Medical Drama]

i loooove the interaction between Tyler Labine and Anupam Kher. It is hillarious.
