<p>Doctor Odyssey will not be moving forward for a second season at ABC</p>
<p>On Monday, June 30, the contracts expired for the show's cast, which includes Joshua Jackson, Don Johnson, Phillipa Soo and Sean Teale, sealing its fate at ABC</p>
<p>However, it's still possible that the Ryan Murphy-helmed series could be picked up elsewhere for a season 2</p>
<p>Is this the end of the road for Doctor Odyssey?</p>
<p>The Ryan Murphy procedural about doctors Joshua Jackson, Phillipa Soo and Sean Teale operating onboard a luxury cruise ship — helmed by Captain Don Johnson — has been canceled after just one season at ABC.</p>
<p>The cancellation comes by default after the cast's contracts expired on Monday, June 30, Deadline reported.</p>
<p>The show could still be picked up by another network or streamer, though.</p>
<p>While Doctor Odyssey's fate at ABC seems to be sealed, that doesn't mean the show is over for good.</p>

<p>It hasn't been formally canceled, which means it could still be pivoted to another streamer or network. Since the cast's contracts have expired, though, the timeline for a potential season 2 would likely be delayed.</p>
<p>Season 1 ended with Soo's Avery finally making a choice in her love triangle.</p>
<p>In the season 1 finale, which aired on May 15, after months of going back and forth between Max (Jackson) and Tristan (Teale), Avery revealed her feelings for Max after he told her he loved her.</p>
<p>She confessed to being in love with him but also feeling conflicted about her future, as she confirmed she wants to go to medical school but still pursue a relationship with the doctor, and he assured her they were in it together.</p>

<p>Max also made sure to talk things over with Tristan, as he apologized for his "egregious violation of bro code" given how involved they both were with Avery.</p>
<p>The season 1 finale didn't give fans clarity on a popular theory, though</p>
<p>Ever since Doctor Odyssey premiered in September, fans have been trying to understand the true nature of the show, and one theory emerged that Max's whole life on the cruise ship was actually a fever dream.</p>
<p>The theory made its way to Jackson, 47, who told TVLine, "I love this theory."</p>
<p>"I cannot tell you what goes on inside the mind of Ryan Murphy, but we also had a similar theory operating on set," he revealed. "Only Ryan Murphy knows."</p>

<p>The theory was that Max, who was "patient zero" during the COVID pandemic, never actually recovered from the illness and instead was in limbo between life and death.</p>
<p>Jackson added of the theory, "I have appreciated the internet sleuths' work on it and I think it's great."</p>
