Disney+ Original Series ‘Doogie Kamealoha, M.D.’ Canceled After Only Two Seasons
It appears that ‘Doogie Kamealoha, M.D.’ has joined the Mighty Ducks and Big Shot on the cutting room floor over at Disney+. Deadline confirmed that there will be no third season for this Disney+ original show. The show aired its final ten episodes only a few months ago, and many hoped that its absence from the list of cut shows meant that it had survived to see a third season, but alas news came down that this show too would not be returning for another season.

“Doogie Kamealoha, M.D.” is a coming-of-age medical drama series that follows the life and journey of a brilliant teenage prodigy named Lahela “Doogie” Kamealoha. Set in modern-day Hawaii, the show centers around Doogie, a 16-year-old high school graduate who is not only dealing with the typical challenges of adolescence but is also a medical prodigy working as a doctor in a busy hospital.
Despite her age, Doogie is a highly skilled and talented medical practitioner, thanks to her exceptional intellect and the guidance of her mother, Dr. Clara Hannon, who is also a seasoned doctor. Throughout the series, Doogie navigates the complexities of her dual life—balancing the demanding responsibilities of her medical career with the normal experiences of a teenager.
As Doogie grapples with challenging medical cases and makes life-or-death decisions, she also forms relationships with her colleagues and patients, learning valuable lessons about empathy, compassion, and the true nature of medicine. The show explores themes of friendship, family, identity, and the pursuit of one’s passions, as Doogie strives to prove herself both as a skilled medical professional and as a young woman finding her place in the world.

The series also delves into Doogie’s personal life as she navigates her first romantic experiences, friendships, and conflicts with her more traditionally aged colleagues who might doubt her abilities due to her age. Alongside the medical drama, the show portrays the beauty of Hawaii’s landscapes and culture, adding to the unique atmosphere of the series.
The series was a reboot of the beloved 90’s series “Doogie Howser M.D.” starring Disney favorite Neil Patrick Harris. The revitalized show starred Peyton Elizabeth Lee as Lahela “Doogie” Kamealoha, Kathleen Rose Perkins as Dr. Clara Hannon (Doogie’s mother) and Jason Scott Lee as Benny Kamealoha (Doogie’s father.)
Doogie Kamealoha joins other canceled series including Big Shot, The Mighty Ducks: Game Changers, The Mysterious Benedict Society, National Treasure, Diary of a Future President and Turner & Hooch.
