Why Was the New Amsterdam Season 5 Canceled?
Running over the last five years created by David Schulner and directed by Peter Horton New Amsterdam was produced under Universal Television production. During an interview David Schulner and directed by Peter Horton disclosed the reason why this series was canceled. They said that people loved the character, and we have to finish them better way from where they started. So, to provide a satisfying end we went back to the plot and concluded where they start.
“I want to leave the audience with the feelings they felt when they first fell in love with the show,” David Schulner explained.

When Schulner asked about the ending of the show he replied, “We were stuck all day long. We could not think of the right thing. We butted our heads for an entire day, and finally, I sent everyone away. I said, ‘we’re leaving Zoom, take an hour, take two hours, and then everyone comes back to the room and pitches something, just have one thing that you think would make a great final surgery.’ I came back with some bizarre, $5 million computer-generated laser beam surgery. We all just were trying to find something big and crazy. “
“And then Jai, our writer’s assistant, is the one who pitched a surgery that takes 50 people. Immediately we knew that was the one because it was about our characters. It’s not about a crazy surgery. It’s about all the characters that we’ve had on our show for five years, for 92 episodes. And this surgery was a way in which we could bring back all the characters who ever performed surgery on New Amsterdam for one unique surgery. It was about the patient, but even more importantly, it was about our characters.”
My final bow as a director for New Amsterdam airs tomorrow night at 10/9c. It’s been an honor and pleasure. Tune in for an epic episode! 📸 on set with writers @LauraValdivia @MonaMansourNY #DamFam #NewAmsterdam pic.twitter.com/HHuG258MaV

Harton also answered that this is the best idea. When they decide to lunch Luna, David’s daughter as an adult, who is now 11 years. Erica Green Swafford suggested launching her in the final scene. They also said that with an awkward end, they don’t want to give any bad taste to their audiences. Even they wanted to run this series for more than two or three years, to describe all the characters briefly.
This show is really going to end with their female lead having gone through something traumatic leading her to abandon the partner and daughter she loved so much, and no one least of all Max cared enough to find out why #NewAmsterdam https://t.co/JETFIoaYIi

Because all their character is so interesting. Even David and Harton also like to know about their film characters. According to our series number on Netflix which is ranked no 3, fans also like to watch this medical history drama. In the end, Harton said, “ It’s a bit of a mystery as to why it was canceled, to tell you the truth.”
At the airport heading home from NY after final wrap party for #NewAmsterdam Leaving with such rich sadness and gratitude for cast, crew and all of you 4 your support, even patience, as we worked through pandemic, cast/story changes on our way to this achy end. On to the next!
