Don’t say it’s the end! Doctor Odyssey must sail again.

17 episodes and countless injuries later, we have finally arrived at the Season 1 finale of ABC and Ryan Murphy’s deeply unserious (but endlessly entertaining) medical procedural. The Joshua Jackson, Don Johnson, Phillipa Soo, and Sean Teale show is heading out for one final voyage to round out Season 1 and it’s going to be a nailbiter.

After the penultimate episode saw — SPOILER ALERT — two earthquakes and a tsunami that forced The Odyssey to leave Dr. Max (Jackson) behind on land, the second earthquake ultimately shook the ground so hard that a church collapsed on Max just as he was about to assist Avery (Soo) and Tristan (Teale) with surgery. And against the guidance of their corporate overlords, we know that in tonight’s episode, Captain Robert (Johnson) will take the cruise ship back to shore to try and find Max and anyone else in need of help. But will they make it in time to save him?

Has Doctor Odyssey Been Canceled? Renewed For A Season 2? I Need Deets!

Unfortunately, everyone’s favorite guilty pleasure show has NOT been renewed for Season 2 … yet. As of air date, the show is currently on the bubble and could go either way, according to recent reports. Earlier this week, one ABC exec even said that the show’s fate rests in the hands of Murphy, who will ultimately decide if more episodes are warranted.

“I really love Doctor Odyssey, I think it’s a wildly inventive show, and we’re doing everything we can to support it,” Eric Schrier, President of Disney TV Studios, recently said. “That decision ultimately lies with Ryan Murphy, whether Ryan wants to continue to do it, and he feels like there’s stories to tell that he feels confident in.”

The first 17 episodes of Doctor Odyssey are currently streaming on Hulu and Disney+. New episodes release Thursday nights on ABC.
