So that should be pretty fun,\u201d Steinberg teased.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The through line of\u00a0Doc Season 1 was Richard hiding his role in a patient\u2019s death. He was distracted by personal business (he hid his son being diagnosed with bipolar and schizotypal disorders) and accidentally gave the patient the wrong medication. He even tried to place the blame on Amy at one point before the truth came out in the finale. He ended the finale with his medical license suspended and packing up his office.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cI hope he has a future in medicine,\u201d <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/1182072\/doc-season-1-finale-richard-caught-license-suspended-returning-scott-wolf\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Wolf told us;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Wolf told us<\/a> of that moment in early 2025. \u201cI think what\u2019s clear is he\u2019s a person who has just lost everything, and that\u2019s brutal.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">He also hoped that he\u2019d be back for a second season. \u201cThere\u2019s nothing more that I would love than to be a part of this show. It\u2019s really special. The writers, the producers, our cast and crew are best I\u2019ve ever worked with. I\u2019ve worked with some great people, and this a really special experience.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">He also pointed out, \u201cThe fundamental premise of this whole show is, what would you do with a second chance? We don\u2019t often get chances to go back to see who we were and do it differently, whether we\u2019re in an accident, lose our memory or not. All of us have a chance to reckon with who we\u2019ve been and for better or for worse. But to have a real chance to reset those things and maybe alter your identity in some way is really extraordinary \u2014 and not just Amy has been in this position. Everyone she works with, that she\u2019s in relationship with, has been given this same chance of, who have I been and who might I want to be?\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Wolf at the time also noted that the biggest part of what would have to happen for Richard to return would be Amy being willing to give him a second chance. \u201cThat would be extraordinary storytelling,\u201d he said. \u201cFor a person who has just endured what she has endured and knows that the only reason she\u2019s still going is because she\u2019s been given a second chance, even as dark or as betrayed as she has felt, there was a time where they really loved each other and respected each other\u2026 And if that was something that she still held and somehow was willing to say, even this most egregious thing that really potentially could have hurt me terribly, even this I can forgive and be willing to allow for this person in their humanity and give them compassion and give them grace \u2014 I don\u2019t know, anything\u2019s possible, but to see a person come back into an environment and again, have to almost create a new identity for themselves and build off of who they were, change who they became and don\u2019t want to be anymore, it sort of fits with the story we\u2019ve been telling all along.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Do you want to see Scott Wolf return as Richard?
