The network shows are back in production. Therefore, we are finding out who will be back and who will not be.
Today, we learned that Freema Agyeman is not returning for the show’s final season as Dr. Helen Sharpe. The actress announced the news on social media.
Dearest Dam Fam.
First off I would like to say a huge heartfelt THANK YOU for your unending, dedicated and deliciously ferocious support! I feel very fortunate to have connected with so many of you, while rolling around in the skin of Ms. Helen Sharpe, and witness every ebb and flow of your emotional investment in her. What a ride! Thank you for being on it with me. She has meant so much to me, but the time has come for me to hang up her white coat, as I officially share the news that I will not be returning for the final season of New Amsterdam. While I am saddened, I am also incredibly excited to see how the story concludes as a fan of the series. It has been such a joy to play Dr. Helen Sharpe for 4 seasons – those magnificent writers built a badass! Beyond grateful for the opportunity to tell some of her stories!
Fanfic – it’s over to you to tell the rest!!
Lots of love Fam!
The news is shocking but not surprising how the medical drama ended its fourth season. Sharpe called Max to tell him that she could not go through with their wedding and that she would not be joining him in NYC.
The medical drama’s biggest mistake was sending Sharpwin to London. I don’t know what they were thinking, but that ruined the fourth season. It never made sense why Max would leave New Amsterdam for a woman.
So, I am sad that Agyemam is leaving the show, but I am not sad to see her character gone. How do you feel about her departure?
