This much-anticipated ABC drama, brought to life by the creative genius of Ryan Murphy, promises an exhilarating blend of romance, comedy, and high-stakes medical drama.

Behind the Scenes: First Look

TVLine has secured an exclusive behind-the-scenes first look at this high-seas adventure. Jackson’s character, Dr. Max Bankman, finds himself in a series of compromising positions with Nurse Avery, portrayed by Broadway sensation Phillipa Soo. In one steamy scene, Max whispers to Avery, "Please don’t tell the captain," after a passionate moment, to which she teasingly replies, "Oh, I was just about to text him."

A Promising Start

The excitement surrounding Doctor Odyssey began earlier this month with an eye-catching promo from ABC. The promo showcased Jackson bringing "big deck energy" to the high seas, coupled with intense footage of his character performing CPR on an unconscious patient. It’s clear that Dr. Max Bankman is a man of many talents.

A Ship of Dreams and Nightmares

Set aboard a luxury cruise ship, Doctor Odyssey is described by ABC as a place where “the staff works hard and plays harder.” The series follows Dr. Max and his small but resilient medical team as they navigate unique medical crises and complex interpersonal dynamics, all while miles from shore.

Ryan Murphy's Signature Style

Jackson described the series to TVLine as “Ryan Murphy at his outrageous, over-the-top best,” emphasizing the joyful and fast-paced nature of the scripts. Fans of Murphy’s work can expect his signature blend of drama and humor, making Doctor Odyssey a must-watch this fall.

Star-Studded Cast

Alongside Jackson and Soo, Doctor Odyssey boasts an impressive cast, including Don Johnson of Miami Vice fame and Sean Teale. The series is set to premiere on Thursday, Sept. 26 at 9/8c, nestled between fan favorites 9-1-1 and Grey’s Anatomy.
