The Good Doctor Season 2: Who is leaving and who is staying?
By Callum Gunn
The Good Doctor may have only just concluded its first season but decisions are already being made on who will and won’t feature in The Good Doctor Season 2.
The season finale of The Good Doctor only aired on March 26, and in just that short amount of time decisions are already being made on about The Good Doctor Season 2. With decisions already being made on who will and who will not be returning, things are already moving fast in camp Good Doctor.
It’s not surprising that showrunners are already moving. The show started and ended on a high. Claiming the title for “The Most Watched Freshman Series In 13 Years” on ABC. Both showrunners and network bosses will be aiming to have a similar sort of impact during the second season.
So in order to do that, the work needs to begin now. The show won’t be returning until the second half of the year, exact dates are still to be announced, and even though that sounds like a long time for us mere viewers, for everyone involved in creating The Good Doctor, it is very little time at all.
Starting with who is coming back and who isn’t, makes sense for the showrunners. So let’s look at who has been given told they are coming back and who has not.
