Medical drama New Amsterdam<\/a> has found itself another streaming home<\/a> in the UK.<\/p>\n

The series is already available to stream in full on Netflix<\/a>, Sky and NOW, but now all five seasons<\/a> can be watched on Prime Video<\/a> as well.<\/p>\n

Running from 2018 to 2022, the show follows a doctor who becomes the medical director of one of the United States’ oldest public hospitals.<\/p>\n

He finds the place is neglected and the broken bureaucratic systems aren’t helping matters, and commits himself to tearing up the rulebook and doing things his way so the hospital can get back to what it does best: caring for people.<\/p>\n

The show was popular during its original run, although critics were more mixed<\/a> on it.<\/p>\n

A common theme across positive and negative reviews is that the show doesn’t break any boundaries, with Vox<\/a> stating: “Nobody is trying to reinvent the wheel, but maybe the wheel doesn’t need to be reinvented.”<\/p>\n

CinemaBlend<\/a> added that New Amstermdam “Encompasses everything viewers have come to expect from the genre. It also manages to avoid clich\u00e9, embracing itself for what it is as an emotional drama without sacrificing the gritty and searing truth it is portraying.”<\/p>\n

“Satisfying viewing, it’s a show you can trust to deliver a decent hour of escape without over-the-top dramatics,” The Post NZ<\/a> stated.<\/p>\n

A review from the Los Angeles Times<\/a> reads: “It is as baldly manipulative and corny as heck – the pilot ends with a Coldplay song – and even a little ridiculous.<\/p>\n

“But the actors sell it, and the fact that the action can seem so unlikely oddly just makes it more compelling.”<\/p>\n

New Amsterdam is available to stream on Netflix, Sky\/NOW, and Prime Video.<\/strong><\/p>\n
