‘The Good Doctor’ has been running successfully for three years and counting and in a short span of time, it has managed to garner a fanfare of millions. Despite being a medical drama, the primetime show attracts people from all walks of life, across ages, genders and interests.

From the creators to the cast, everything about the series exudes warmth, making fans go gaga every week. And thus it became ABC's top nighttime show with an average of 15.6 million total viewers and the second-most-watched show on the network.

In fact, ‘The Good Doctor’ has also been recognized as one of the most popular shows of the country this season.

With such popularity, we had expected the series to continue. After all, it's not every day that you get to see an ensemble cast of Freddie Highmore, Christina Chang, Nicholas Gonzales, Richard Schiff and more such brilliant actors on the same platform at the same time.

Finally, our wishes has come true and ABC's hit medical drama series got the nod for a Season 4. ABC has approved an early renewal for 'The Good Doctor' Season 4 and marks the first ABC scripted series renewal this season.

Just like us, fans of 'The Good Doctor' are equally excited or perhaps a little more. A Twitter fan cheers, "A early renewal for #TheGoodDoctor!!!! YAY!!!!!"

Another fan is not only thrilled with the good news but also cheers Hill Harper, one of the lead actors on the show.

She says, "@hillharper  congratulations on the season 4 renewal! I'm super excited to see what comes next! Did you all get to celebrate the fantastic news #TheGoodDoctor," to which the actor responded with a thanks.

When it’s a series which becomes a weekly ritual and a part of our daily life, it's hard to stop at just another season and we tend to expect more of it. This is exactly what this fan wants.

He says, "I want season five #TheGoodDoctor and more @FionaGubelmann @AntoniaLThomas @freddiehighmore @WillYunLee @IamNickGonzalez @_ChristinaChang @hillharper @Richard_Schiff."

Adapted from a popular Korean drama, 'The Good Doctor' is developed by David Shore for ABC and stars Freddie Highmore, Richard Schiff, Will Yun Lee, Christina Chang, Nicholas Gonzales, Antonia Thomas, Hill Harper, Fiona Gubelmann, and Jasika Nicole in lead roles.

The story follows the journey, achievements and challenges of Dr Shaun Murphy — a young resident doctor with autism and savant syndrome.

If you haven't had a chance to catch up on the latest season, then wait for the reruns and stay updated. 'The Good Doctor' Season 3 airs every Monday night at 10 pm/9c on ABC.
