TV Recap: New Amsterdam – A Very Different Idea of Good News …

New Amsterdam
“Every Last Minute” (Episode 103)
October 9, 2018

Going into this episode I just wanted to grab Max by the shoulders and start shaking him. Having lived in the world of cancer as both a caregiver and relative of medical professionals, I can’t help but cringe at the thought of Max’s journey ahead without the support of his friends and family. I just want him to stop running away and finally face the giants in front of him. I know it’s easier to face the giants in other people’s lives than face our own but if Max can’t figure out how to do that he is going to end up in a very bad way. With that being said, let’s hop into episode 3 and see kinds of holes our doctors dig themselves into. (Catch up on the recap for last episode here),

What To Watch Tonight? Tuesday are the single best night of the week for TV. Across the board, you are at a minimum of three deep each hour of excellent dramas. A little less so tonight because the World Series begins and that knocks out any Fox programming, like The Gifted, normally a popular pick at PCR. At 8p, our Top Pick is The Flash (tonight has the return of Wells!). At 9, Black Lightning is our go to but we’ll be watching FBI also (check soon for our recaps).  At 10pm, our heart belongs to New Amsterdam but we like The Rookie too (recaps comings).

New Amsterdam
“Rituals” (Episode 102)
October 2, 2018

I’ve been waiting anxiously for Episode 2 of New Amsterdam ever since the final minutes of the Pilot. I have so many questions racing through my mind about how Dr. Max Goodwin is going to handle his cancer diagnosis and his duties to his wife, the hospital, and the doctors who expect him to lead them?!?  Once again, New Amsterdam didn’t disappoint and should be THE must watch show on everyone’s list this Fall.

Catch up on what happened in the Series Premiere last week with my recap and review here!

TV Recaps: New Amsterdam – How Can I Help You?

New Amsterdam
“Pilot” (Episode 101)
September 25, 2018

New Amsterdam is the Fall show you didn’t know you needed in your life. When I first saw a trailer for New Amsterdam, I thought, “this looks interesting, but it’s another medical drama. Do I really need that in my life?” The answer was, yes. This will be the show that keeps me begging for more and leaves me satisfied at the end of each episode.

I grew up watching ER with my family and Grey’s Anatomy has easily gotten me through the last 14 years. I didn’t think I needed another medical show in my weekly lineup, but New Amsterdam is so refreshing, it’s like a breath of fresh air. From the very beginning, I found myself cheering on the characters and sitting on the edge of my seat waiting for what happens next.

Dr. Max Goodwin’s (Ryan Eggold, Blacklist) simple statement, “How can I help you?” resonates throughout the entire episode. You can already feel that it’s the mantra, the heartbeat of the series. In a broken medical system, Dr. Goodwin tries to reinvent the wheel; only time will tell if he will succeed. In the meantime, audiences will root for the new Medical Director and the doctors ready to turn the system upside down.
