The American medical drama, New Amsterdam which first hit our screens in 2018, wrapped its fifth season in January last year. Now, after a very long year of waiting, it’s making waves in the UK after dropping on the streamer on December 31. Already earning high praise online and landing the eighth spot on the list of the nation’s current top 10 shows on the platform, it’s obvious that fans couldn’t be happier to be snuggling up and binging the latest season.

Sharing their excitement on social media platform, X, @adrianm_14 said: ‘Last season of New Amsterdam is finally on Netflix’. ‘The final season of New Amsterdam is on Netflix’, @Adebimpee_ added along with two emojis depicting their upset. While @PeterMawby51 announced they had been bingeing the show, writing: ‘Have you watches season 5 of New Amsterdam? It came on Netflix yesterday! I’m onto episode 4 already.’.
Elsewhere, the show earned praise from longtime viewers, with @ShavinWijetunge calling it one of the ‘best dramas’ due to how it addresses real-life issues, including hospital budgets and administration. ‘There is a nice program on Netflix called New Amsterdam… it may not give the 100% accurate picture. But it is one of the best dramas about modern hospital administration. How individual public hospitals can operate. meeting budgets.’.
