New Amsterdam S1-5
The fifth and final season of New Amsterdam returns us to America’s oldest public hospital, where Dr Max Goodwin (Ryan Eggold from BlacKkKlansman) continues his fight to put saving lives above the bottom line. Along the way, the series has picked up plenty of accolades for the cast, including Freema Agyeman (Doctor Who) and Sandra Mae Frank.
This season, look out for Oscar winner Marlee Matlin (CODA, The L Word, The West Wing), who makes a guest appearance as Dr Wilder’s former mentor, Dr Bev Clemons.
