Because we’re a hospital show set in New York, it would be irresponsible to pretend this didn’t interrupt our world of New Amsterdam.
We’re a show about health professionals and a public hospital in Manhattan, and I think they have to go through what the real-life doctors in New York are going through now.
I think all our clever writer plans are thrown out the window, and we have to adjust.
We were definitely heading in that direction, but honestly, I’m not being coy when I say this pandemic has interrupted the real world.
