Fox Awards 'Doc' Unprecedented 22-Episode Season 2 Renewal
Fox has announced a significant renewal for its freshman medical drama 'Doc,' granting it a 22-episode second season, which is notably rare in the current broadcast landscape where shorter seasons are becoming the norm. The show, starring Molly Parker as Dr. Amy Larsen, has emerged as a breakout hit, achieving over 16 million viewers for its premiere and ranking as Fox's most-watched entertainment program of the season. This early renewal comes just weeks before the Season 1 finale, reflecting Fox's confidence in the show's success and its positive reception among audiences. Showrunner Barbie Kligman and executive producer Hank Steinberg have been praised for effectively adapting the series, which is based on an Italian format. The renewal marks a significant shift for midseason shows, which typically receive smaller orders, and positions 'Doc' as one of the few to secure a full-length second season right away. The show’s strong performance comes amidst a resurgence of medical dramas on television, with 'Doc' leading the charge.
