Five months on from the Doogie Kamealoha, M.D. Season 2 finale, we have an answer about the show's fate.
Unfortunately, it's not good news.
TV Line reports that the medical drama reboot has been canceled and won't return for a third season.
It's unclear at this stage whether the SAG-AFTRA and WGA strikes governed the decision to end the show, and we'll probably never get an answer.
The series was a coming-of-age dramedy inspired by the hit medical series Doogie Howser, M.D. It follows Lahela "Doogie" Kamealoha, a 16-year-old prodigy juggling a budding medical career and life as a teenager.
With the support of her caring and comical 'ohana (family) and friends, Lahela is determined to make the most of her teenage years and forge her own path.

TVLine has an exclusive sneak peek from Wednesday’s finale, during which Lahela asks for her parents’ permission to spend the summer with Walter in Australia. And while her mother is at least somewhat receptive to the idea, her father is considerably less willing to budge.

Peyton Elizabeth Lee’s Lahela Kamealoha reminds everyone of Doogie Howser, Neil Patrick Harris’ wunderkind (and very much fictional) teen doctor in the first trailer for Disney+’s remake of that very same fictional TV show.
That’s because, like Doogie, Lee’s Dr. Kamealoha is a “real life” version of Doogie Howser, herself being a teen prodigy doctor. Even though the show, like “Doogie Howser,” is also very much a work of fiction. In the world of “Doogie Kamealoha,” the show “Doogie Howser” very much existed, which would mean that Harris exists as an actor (and yes the show’s producers are trying to get him to make an appearance if it gets renewed).
Watch the trailer in the player above. “Doogie Kamealoha” premieres on Sept. 8.
Set in modern-day Hawaii, the 10-episode reboot follows Lahela “Doogie” Kameāloha (Lee), a mixed-race 16-year-old girl, juggling a budding medical career and life as a teenager.

Disney’s upcoming “Doogie Howser” reboot may be set partially in a hospital, but don’t expect to see Covid-19 make an appearance.
“It was definitely a question early on,” showrunner Kourtney Kang said during a Television Critics Association press tour panel on Thursday when asked about how the show navigated the decision to represent the pandemic. Ultimately, the producers decided an escapist approach was most appropriate for the family-friendly Disney+ series.
“Our show is so hopeful and escapist and so uplifting that having this magical world where we don’t have to touch on that felt like the right decision,” she said. “We were all in agreement early on that that was the way to go.”
Set to premiere on Sept. 8., “Doogie Kamealoha, M.D.” stars “Andi Mack” alum Peyton Elizabeth Lee as Lahela “Doogie” Kameāloha, a mixed-race 16-year-old girl, juggling a budding medical career and life as a teenager.

Fans of ’80s TV who were hoping to see “Doogie Howser, M.D.” star Neil Patrick Harris make an appearance on Disney+’s upcoming reboot of the show will have to make peace with the fact the producers couldn’t get the former child star onto the first season of “Doogie Kamealoha, M.D.”
However, the Nph exclusion from the Hawaii-set reboot, which stars Peyton Elizabeth Lee in the title role of the unbelievably young doctor, is purely due to the pandemic, according to series creator Kourtney Kang.
“We need to connect Peyton and Neil! And yes, we have been in touch, with Neil,” Kang told reporters during a virtual panel for “Doogie Kamealoha, M.D.” during the Television Critics Association’s press tour Thursday. “I worked with him for nine years on ‘How I Met Your Mother.’ He is so wonderful.
