Are Felicity Huffman And Scott Wolf Returning?
Key Points:
- Joan Ridley, played by Felicity Huffman, is expected to appear in Season 3 of Fox's "Doc" primarily through flashbacks, despite her character's death in the Season 2 finale after receiving end-of-life care.
- Joan's final moments included performing a life-saving surgery on Amy and making a heroic sacrifice by injecting herself with medication that induced unconsciousness.
- Richard Miller, portrayed by Scott Wolf, has an uncertain future on the show as his character hinted at moving on from Westside Hospital, though producers are open to bringing him back if an organic storyline arises.
- "Doc" has been renewed for a 22-episode third season, with the premiere date to be announced later this year.
- Co-showrunner Hank Steinberg emphasized the strong connection of Joan's character to Amy's past, providing opportunities for future appearances despite the character's death.
