Overview

  • Episode 1 debuts Thursday, January 8 at 6 p.m. PT / 9 p.m. ET, with 15 weekly episodes running through April 16 on HBO Max.
  • Season 2 unfolds 10 months after Season 1 across a single Fourth of July day shift, preserving the show’s one-hour-per-episode, real-time format.
  • Noah Wyle’s Dr. Michael ‘Robby’ Robinavitch is one shift from a planned three-month sabbatical as Sepideh Moafi joins as Dr. Baran Al-Hashimi and Patrick Ball’s Dr. Frank Langdon returns from rehab.
  • The new chapter weaves in system-level pressures and policy debates, including AI-assisted charting, a tech outage that forces analog workarounds, sexual-assault evidence protocols, and care for uninsured, unhoused or incarcerated patients.
  • HBO and HBO Max chief Casey Bloys announced the Season 3 renewal at the LA event, capping a run of acclaim that includes multiple Emmys and a recent Critics’ Choice best drama win.
