First-look images from the second half of Doctor Odyssey season 1 have been released. ABC’s medical series follows the high-stakes adventures aboard a luxury cruise ship, dubbed The Odyssey, where its medical team handles life-or-death emergencies amid their rocky romances. Created by Ryan Murphy, Doctor Odyssey stars Joshua Jackson as Dr. Max Bankman, the ship’s newly hired doctor, alongside an ensemble cast including Phillipa Soo, Don Johnson, and Sean Teale.
According to TVLine, the new images highlight two big guest stars: Shania Twain is back as the flirty Heather, and Paris Jackson joins the cast as a new passenger. Heather, who first appeared during Singles Week and laid it on thick with Captain Massey (Johnson), is back and seemingly picking up where she left off. Meanwhile, Jackson’s character debuts in dramatic fashion, as an ABC promo shows her fainting and being rescued by Teale’s Tristan (via TV Promos). Both storylines promise to raise the stakes for Bankman’s team when the series continues on March 6. Check out the images below:
What These Guest Stars Mean For Doctor Odyssey
Romance And Complications Rock The Boat
Twain’s Heather has already made waves aboard The Odyssey during Singles Week, and her return looks set to rekindle her playful flirtation with widower Captain Massey. In her first appearance, Heather brought plenty of charm as the two bonded over their shared loss of a partner. Now, her second visit seems to be taking that connection further, with Heather and Massey appearing closer than ever. Whether this romance will thrive or sink remains a mystery, but it’s certain to explore Massey’s Broken Heart Syndrome with more steamy drama for the ship’s already turbulent relationships.

Doctor Odyssey has had some strange themes so far but it has so many more it can show as a special week on the luxurious The Odyssey cruise ship.
Jackson’s character, meanwhile, is entering the scene with a bang—literally hitting the ground in the ABC promo clip. Her fainting spell grabs the attention of Tristan, suggesting a new wrench to be thrown into his complicated relationship with Avery and Max. While he anxiously awaits the news of Avery’s pregnancy, the nurse seems especially vulnerable to getting caught up in yet another tumultuous entanglement. Whether or not Jackson’s character brings a new romantic tryst to The Odyssey, her presence alongside the beloved country singer will deliciously raise the stakes as Max suffers his own medical crisis on board.

The new images from Doctor Odyssey make it clear that the second half of the season will keep delivering the fun, dramatic twists fans of the series have come to love.

Plus, her connection to Tristan—who always seems to be in the middle of something—means things are bound to get messy fast.
With Doctor Odyssey returning on March 6, the countdown is on to see how it all plays out. Between the new guest stars, romantic drama, and major ongoing theories, the second half of the season is shaping up to be a can’t-miss addition to ABC’s line-up.
