Renewed: New Amsterdam

New US medical drama New Amsterdam has been renewed for a second season.

The NBC series is averaging 11.9 million viewers with seven days of delayed viewing and leading its slot in the all-important 18-49 demo.

“We’ve been so excited to see how much audiences have embraced Dr. Max Goodwin (Ryan Eggold) and all the characters that make New Amsterdam such an incredibly compelling medical series,” said Lisa Katz and Tracey Pakosta, co-presidents, scripted programming at NBC Entertainment. “Congratulations to (executive producers) David Schulner, Peter Horton, our writers and an amazing cast and crew who have brought these stories to life.”

The series, which also features Freema Agyeman, Janet Montgomery, Jocko Sims, Anupam Kher and Tyler Labine, debuted in Australia on Nine last week.
