‘Doc’ Season 3 Episode 3 Release Date, Time and Where to Watch as the Next Dose of Amy and Ben Drama

Fox’s medical drama is back on the air for a third round, and viewers are already wondering what comes next for Dr. Amy Larsen. The new season runs 22 episodes, and episodes air weekly on Fox on Tuesdays. That leaves plenty of time for secrets to surface at Westside Hospital.

If you are trying to plan your Tuesday night around ‘Doc‘, this guide covers the essentials. From the schedule to the streaming options to what the story has teased so far, here is what fans should know before the next episode arrives.

The ‘Doc’ Season 3 Episode 3 Release Date Is Right Around the Corner

The third episode, titled “I Know What I Want,” is set to air Tuesday, Oct. 6. Only the opening three episodes have dates in the published schedule, so no one should assume a full calendar has been announced.

It is worth noting that listings are not perfectly uniform. One streaming guide lists the same Oct. 6 date but gives the episode a different title, “In Thyself.” Most schedules use the first title, so expect that to be the one on screen.

Episode 2 is listed for Sept. 29, which means the show is keeping a steady weekly rhythm. That makes October 6 the third Tuesday in a row for fans hoping to keep up.

What Time Does the New ‘Doc’ Episode Air?

Episodes air at 9 p.m. ET on Fox. That works out to 9/8c, so viewers in the Central time zone can tune in an hour earlier on their clocks.

Anyone watching live on cable or a live TV service should plan to be settled in before the hour. The season opener aired right after the season premiere of ‘Best Medicine,’ so the Fox Tuesday lineup is worth keeping an eye on.

If you miss the broadcast, there is no need to panic. The streaming release is quick, and it gives fans a second chance to catch up without much of a wait.

Where to Watch ‘Doc’ Season 3?

In the US, new episodes stream the next day on Hulu. Those Hulu episodes typically drop around 3 a.m. ET, so early risers on Wednesday morning can catch up before work.

For live viewing, Fox is available through services like Sling and Fubo, with Fubo offering a free trial. DirecTV is another option alongside a traditional cable provider.

Older seasons are easier to find than you might expect. Netflix added the first two seasons in the US, though the new season is airing on Fox with next day streaming on Hulu.

Viewers outside America have a longer wait. The show is expected to land in the UK in November or December, most likely on Sky Witness, but there is no official date. Canadian fans can look to Stack TV, while Australian viewers may find it on 7Plus with the date still to be confirmed.

Episode Preview and What Fans Can Expect

Here is the honest situation. A synopsis for the third episode had not been released at the time of the last guide update. That means anything specific about the plot is still under wraps, and it is best not to trust rumors before Fox shares an official description.

What we do know is where the story stands. Amy and Dr. Sonya Maitra have started as chief residents, guiding a class of new interns, while flashes of memory keep hitting Amy at inconvenient moments. The season also puts the spotlight on a newcomer whose past with Amy is a major question mark.

The trailer suggested Blair Underwood’s Ben Grant is hiding that he and Amy once had a romantic relationship, and that Amy begins to recover flashes of their past before eventually confronting him. When Amy asks about their relationship, Ben insists they barely knew each other, which the returning memories increasingly contradict. The second episode already pushed the tension along, with Amy clashing with Ben while a critically injured family filled the hospital.

There is also the personal side of Amy’s world to consider. Her daughter Katie heading off to college changes the family dynamic and adds another layer to the season. Fox has called the series a breakout, pointing to its largest scripted multi platform audience of the season when it renewed the show. With that kind of momentum behind it, the third episode has a real chance to deepen the Amy and Ben mystery, so are you Team Ben or do you think Amy should keep her distance until the truth comes out in the comments?
