Has The Program 'New Amsterdam' Jumped The Shark?......

One of my favorite programs - but the last two episodes just went to far with the drama.

Everything is a calamity in this hospital. All the main and secondary characters are up to their eyeballs with problems. Just too much!!!

I don't know if the writers are running out of ideas or if they think that us people - that are already despondent and demoralized with what is going on in our country and the world - need even more bad karma to deal with.

I got into the program because their theme seemed to be hopeful and positive. Lately they've gone off the deep end.

I'm thinking this program has jumped the shark and I'm going to wean myself off of watching it going forward. Too bad!!!
