The dubbed version of the American series New Amsterdam has been very successful in Quebec on TVA for several years.
The fifth and final season was supposed to premiere this winter, but there was a last-minute change. The exact reason was not given, but it should be noted that the season in question is currently broadcast in French on the specialist channel Moi et Cie.
It is therefore only in spring 2024 that Quebecers can experience the continuation and conclusion of the adventures of Max Goodwin and the Bellevue Hospital staff.
This final season will only have 13 episodes. This is the shortest season in the series' history. Note that the grand finale was divided into two episodes.
For those unfamiliar with the New Amsterdam series, here is the official description: Dr. Max Goodwin is brilliant, charming – and the new director of America's oldest public hospital. As he works to outsmart bureaucracy to provide exceptional care, doctors and staff doubt his practice. You've heard this before and no one else has kept these promises. Max won't take “no” for an answer, upsetting the status quo and proving he will stop at nothing to breathe new life into this understaffed, underfunded and underappreciated hospital – the only one in the world capable of treating Ebola patients, Rikers Iceland prisoners and the President of the United States all under one roof – and bring it back to the glory that put it on the map.
Note that next season will replace the fifth version of New Amsterdam on TVA (Tuesdays at 9 p.m) until the second season of the Quebec production Nous.
The official synopsis for this new season is as follows: Deeply betrayed by her parents, Camille tries to reconnect with her twin, but as all the layers of her life have been cracked, her search becomes increasingly complex. Alexis has accepted the position of operations manager of the family business, but his mind is much more occupied with creating his miniatures. Anaïs will wreak havoc, both in the lives of those close to her and in her own. How will she manage to rebuild her emotional life despite such stubborn dislike for her father? Margaux is still grieving for her mother, but the real problem, in her opinion, is that she no longer feels anything for Guillaume and she would like to understand why. Thibault is devastated after his attack. The joker gives way to the sad, self-destructive clown full of debt. The people around him will do anything to prevent him from going under.
