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.
