Deadline described the show as "a feel-good medical procedural centered on Sebastian 'Bass' Clark, a professional athlete-turned-doctor who left the front line of the football field to start over on the front lines of healthcare as a medical resident."

The transition is one that a number of real-life NFL players have made.

Michael returned briefly but was missing again on Monday, as were his co-hosts, Robin Roberts and George Stephanopolous. Instead, Amy Robach, T.J. Holmes and Whit Johnson were leading the show, along with Ginger Zee and Lara Spencer.

Fans took to Twitter to question where the main anchors were, with one writing: "Where's the regular crew? Robin, George and Michael?" while another wrote: "Boo where is Michael, George and Robin? GMA is not the same without them." A third added: "Miss seeing Michael on GMA today."
