“Good Sam ss 2”: release date, announcement
In May 2022, it was officially announced that the medical drama “Good Sam” would not have a sequel. The project management announced its closure. The reason for this decision was not made public.
Plot
As a little girl, Sam learned to play the piano — this contributed to the good development of the hands and their functionality. She wanted to be like her father, who was already considered a brilliant surgeon and could perform complex operations. One day Rob and Sam got into a car accident. The father was driving too fast, which caused the accident.
Then Rob almost said goodbye to his daughter, who urgently managed to undergo heart surgery. Since then, he has changed a lot. Rob was colder towards Sam, though he gave sound advice on how to behave around the residents. The girl did not understand how she deserved such an attitude, although she saw that outwardly her father despises everyone in the department.
Once, several people got into the clinic at once, one of whom shot Rob in a fit of panic. He fell into a coma for six months, and no one thought that he would be able to survive. On the day of Sam’s appointment as chief of cardiac surgery, the news came that her father had woken up. Later, he even asked her to treat him as a patient, and Sam agreed.

And then on a daily basis, Sam began to face his desire to interfere with any of her orders given to the residents. He questions her diagnosis, arranges votes against her, and in the end, poor Sam finds out that he also sleeps with her best friend Lex!
It seems that patience has come to an end. But instead of an outburst of anger, kind Sam begins to be even more attentive to her colleagues, encourages them to fruitful work, and then helps her father overcome the difficult period of recovery. What is it like to be a person who has to prove to others her own importance every day? Will the father understand that he can forever lose a good attitude towards himself?
