"I鈥檇 always intended a four-season window into Bashir鈥檚 life as he completes his medical residency for a second time, sets down roots in sa国际传媒, and learns to shed some of his past, and it鈥檚 incredibly fulfilling to be able to tell his complete story,鈥� Kay said Wednesday in a release.
鈥淭his series is a labour of love for the great many of us who make it, and we're excited for people to keep finding it for years to come. Thank you to our partners at Bell Media and Universal International Studios for the unyielding support."
