Doc Season 3 Trailer: Amy Remembers Her Romance With Blair Underwood's Ben — But Can She Trust Him Now?

The latest trailer for the upcoming third season of the Fox medical drama Doc reveals that Amy (Molly Parker), the series' main character, will be undergoing a professional encounter with her ex-lover Dr. Ben Grant (Blair Underwood). Underwood's character, a cardiothoracic surgeon, was first introduced in Season 2's finale as a valuable asset to Westside Hospital, after he turned down an offer to fill a surgeon position at the hospital earlier.

The trailer suggests that Ben has returned to Westside, potentially complicating Amy's professional relationship with him.

It is revealed in the trailer that Amy and Ben have a romantic past, dating back to after Amy's divorce from Michael. In a surprising moment, Ben watches a video message from Amy, recorded in November 2022, expressing her desire to be with him and acknowledging that Amy has not smiled in a long time. Amy seems to recall their relationship in the trailer and confronts Ben about their past. However, Ben maintains his professional demeanor, asserting that they barely know each other. Amy, in response, accuses Ben of lying.

Co-showrunner Hank Steinberg expressed his excitement about introducing Ben into the show, stating that his presence will bring a different energy to the series, as he knows about Amy and Ben's past but hasn't disclosed it to her. The trailer also highlights the dynamic between Amy and Sonya (Anya Banerjee), as they navigate their roles as co-chief residents, with a new class of interns joining the Westside Hospital team. Doc Season 3 will premiere on Tuesday, September 22, at 9/8c on Fox.
