watching/rewatching a show when you already have an established favorite character is great because every time they come on screen it's like

The way that Max is acting this season is extremely out of character. He would hate Helen nor would he bail on speaking to her one last time. Not after falling in love with Helen. It just didn’t make sense. To be honest, I have no beef with Wyler and Max getting together. My issue is that Sharpwin took 3 seasons to finally get together. The writers showed us that there was chemistry. They didn’t just tell us. Max was never apprehensive about getting together with Helen. Max’s new relationship with Wyler is strange. Their first kiss seemed forced.
I would have nothing to say about that ship if it was developed properly and Max didn’t have so much animosity towards Helen. I had to stop watching the show after episode two aired because of that animosity issue. On Tuesday, I binged watched eight episodes before episode 11 aired. I wish I hadn’t.  I’m so happy that the series is taking a two week break before airing the final two episodes. And the ratings are down and a new negative sector of the fan base has flooded the hashtag on Twitter. Their tweets are filled with micro aggressions and shade towards Helen. It’s a mess!
I literally haven't watched a single episode since last year's finale. I KNEW they were going to shit the bed. I knew that they weren't even going to attempt to handle anything maturely anymore. Not after the way Iggy was written, not after the way Lauren was written, and they lost me on Floyd a LONG time ago. Helen was the final straw. I could stomach that this show was about Max. It was supposed to be based on a real man's journey as director of the hospital and it cast STELLAR stars. The addition of Wilder was honestly one of my favorites and I'm actually sad that she showed up so close to the end of the show because I wanted more of her. He did have apprehension about being with Helen because his feelings for her started before his wife even died. His grief and guilt kept them apart longer than it needed to. His anger and heartbreak should be doing the same right now. To be completely honest I saw chemistry between Wilder and Max and you're right it could've been believable if it had been developed. The real question we need to be asking is why they felt the need to rush and pair them up at all?
Black women and black mixed race women show up and are ready to give great performances, often stealing the show and pulling the story line in ways that aren't predicted by the creators. Sure, they cast them, they had screen tests and they knew they were right for the part but they consistently and CONSTANTLY misjudge how many watched the show for those women characters and how many fans literally tap out in frustration when their roles get reduced or when they are sidelined. If I read one more press release that says;
"Thank you so much for your support but I think I've taken this character as far as they could go, thank you all who supported BLANK and their stories and thank you so much for the opportunity and chance to play this amazing character."
Which translates to,
"Every week I am handed a script where I'm confused as to where or what my character should be doing because it is either the EXACT same thing that happened last week and it seemed as though they would be moving on or addressing it or, I've noticed I have almost no lines, I'm barely invited on press junkets anymore on top of the fact that no one can or is willing to do my hair and make-up and I've noticed a disturbing uptick of rabid fans who hate me for something every other character on the show has done. But I can't burn any bridges or tell the truth about it because it's still Hollywood and Black women BARELY get work as it is."
They didn't plan on their chemistry, and if they didn't want it to be that way they could have asked their directors to DIRECT Ryan and Freema to behave more platonically. They are actors and they capable because they are both GOOD at their jobs.
I know that fans who turned into stans in recent years have gotten downright ugly towards creators who didn't write what they wanted but sometimes it was just literal garbage. There's also a certain segment of the fan population who you HAVE to pay homage to if you have an interracial ship with a white male lead and you're seeing them lob microaggressions and pretty soon it'll be flat out racist attacks because for the UPTEENTH time showrunners chose to make the black woman a dart board. And BTW they have always been there, the amount of people especially in the comment section of TVLine had their fingers crossed Helen would die in the season one finale. Sharpwin fans have just been louder and bigger for so long it was easy to drown them out.
This answer is getting long because I could go ON and ON about this particular subject and how so many shows reinforce and have this trope to placate certain fans. I should call it White Woman First Trope. EVERY show goes to hell because of it.

not sure if your writing prompts are still open but if they are, 124. ‘no one has ever made me feel like this’ for wildies! (elizabeth wilder x mia castries) 🫣
Elizabeth Wilder & Mia Castries, New Amsterdam
124: "no one's ever made me feel like this”
------------------------------------------------------------
Mia's eyes light up the moment Elizabeth walks in her room. 
"Hi," she waves, before pointing at Elizabeth and then at the hospital bed she's in - a big question mark on her face. "Shouldn't you be in bed? I heard you got drugged, too!?" To make sure Elizabeth understands her, she pretends to drink, then falls back into her pillow.
Elizabeth's bright laugh echoes through the room. "I'm okay," she tells Mia with her best articulation.
Mia sighs in relief. 
"How are you?" Elizabeth asks her, rubbing her upper arms. "Still cold?"
This time Mia is the one to break out in laughter. "I'm good," she answers, subconsciously gesturing the okay sign she once learned at a scuba dive course. Elizabeth mirrors the sign. Scuba language it is.
"Your heart?" Elizabeth asks, pointing at her own to make herself more clear.
Mia lays her hand on her chest and slowly starts tapping it. "Beating strong," she smiles, as if it didn’t stop working multiple times last night. Pointing at the chair next to the bed, she invites Elizabeth in. Yet it isn’t till she sits down that Mia notices the paper cup in her hands, and most of all the smell that’s coming from it. She nods at it. "What's that?"
"Tea," Elizabeth grins. She hands it to Mia, who then realizes there's writing on the cup. "Dr. Wilder's Wicked Wonder Tea. Secret ingredients. Just as good as Does the trick," she reads out loud.
When she looks up again, Elizabeth shrugs nonchalantly and pulls a face. "Drink it," she gestures.
Mia tilts her head, her eyes narrowed. "Did you spike it?!"
"What?" Elizabeth asks, really not getting it this time.
Mia pretends to drink the tea, rolls her eyes to the back of her head and falls backwards again - drawing another loud laugh from her co-worker slash friend. 
"No!!"
"You're sure?"
"Yes," Elizabeth chuckles again, "Drink!"
With a simple "Alright" Mia surrenders. She takes a sip, quickly followed by a second one, cause whether this tea is gonna fix her or not, it sure tastes good.
Elizabeth watches her in silence. A comfortable silence, Mia realizes. It's also the moment she realizes Ben isn't with her, which makes the communication a bit more difficult, but which also feels... good.
It feels so good, it makes her forget about everything else. Including Kevin, it suddenly hits her. Kevin, who's got this hold on her, even though he doesn't deserve to. Still, he's pretty much always on her mind.
Except on moments like this. Moments she spend with Elizabeth.
"What?" Elizabeth asks, noticing the change of expression on Mia's face.
Mia shakes her head, but there's no fooling Elizabeth. After all, she's got a trained eye for detail. So in the end, she just points at her.
Not following, Elizabeth squints her eyes.
Mia takes a deep breath. Here goes nothing. "No one’s ever made me feel like this," she confesses, somewhere hoping Elizabeth can't read her lips this time. When Elizabeth laughs again, she thinks she’s got it wrong indeed.
But Elizabeth did hear her - in her way. "That's the tea," she giggles, while pretending to fall asleep.
Mia laughs along. But she wasn’t joking. And though she’s a firm believer in the power of herbs, she knows better this time. Some things are stronger than tea.
