    Oh no! New Amsterdam has run out of blood! While Max and the writers try to figure out why people donate blood, Sharpe gets mysterious blood test results that show a woman and her daughter are not related.

  • This Is All I Need

    While Max is away in the wilds of Connecticut, Bloom tries a controversial plan to make the ER less violent, and Frome possibly commits human rights violations.

  • Safe Enough

    Once again, New Amsterdam is hit hard with some revenue woes and, once again,  it's up to Max to save it. If only the hospital could convince him to do his last favorite thing - ask for money.

  • The New Normal

    It's here. Covid has come to the Dam. And New Amsterdam tackles the historic pandemic in the only way they know how: by having a commercial jet crash into the river right outside the hospital. 

    Emily does a Freddie Highmore impression in Simlish, and Polly's favorite kind of movie trivia is blatant lies.

  • "A Matter of Seconds"

    It's the season 2 finale, and a dark cloud is looming: behind the scenes, Covid has breached the set...

    We first see select scenes from the episode that was pulled from air (originally titled "Pandemic".) Then, we launch into the finale as the members of New Amsterdam battle sexual harassment, the second amendment, and glue guns full of morphine.

    Polly opens up about her mime heritage, and Emily has rejected your calendar invite.

    In a twist that no one could see coming, Max, Bloom, and Reynolds are being sued for malpractice! But as they prepare for the trial, the case becomes more complicated than it seems.
