The Pitt

An outstanding show that deserves high praise-especially for its brilliant scriptwriters and skilled medical consultants. It captures the chaotic and emotional reality of a Level 1 trauma center with impressive accuracy. The medical procedures, character arcs, and raw emotional moments feel incredibly authentic. What truly stands out is how the show portrays the intense contrast of hospital life, where joy and heartbreak often unfold side by side. It's a powerful reminder of the resilience, urgency, and humanity that define the world of emergency medicine.

A must watch!! And Dr. Robby's acting is a cherry on the top!

A rare occasion when all of the elements come together and engage the viewer completely. The pacing is fast but with the right rhythm. The writers have done their research, and the little I know about emergency procedures feels convincing. They must have some great medical consultants supervising. But the personal stories, complex interactions, and character development are where it shines. And it's not always the highest profile actors carrying it - Noah Wyle is polished for sure, but all of the young residents are individuals whose uniqueness, sensitivity, strengths and weaknesses, will have you holding your breath and sighing in relief when they save a patient. This is seriously a top tier series. I never anticipate a new episode of a show dropping, but I do for The Pitt. I wonder if season two will be able to match it.

I never watched many medical shows until I retired. Didn't want to bring the hospital home with me. Shows like House may have had good actors but were unrealistic fantasies when it came to real medicine. After retiring I watched all 15 seasons of ER over a few months. That show captured the reality of ER medicine as well as hospital politics, although it compressed time. Things happen fast, but not that fast or intense over an entire day, and not nearly as many open chest heart massages occur. But you really did get to see what it was like. Now The Pitt brings the same flavor of show as ER was. So if you enjoyed watching ER, you will like this.

I work in healthcare and this show is an accurate depiction of what takes place in a very busy urban Emergency Department. The scenes of intubation, codes, and family grief are real and something that happens on a daily basis if not hourly. People complaining about camera angles need to realize that healthcare workers that are part of the "action" often feel disjointed and out of control we just have a better way of disguising it! This show shows that there are always subplots to the action that is occurring and occasionally that are bright spots! With only 2 episodes so far I say give it a chance you might learn something about healthcare. Noah Wylie is a great person to headline this show.

The Pitt is easily the best hospital series I've ever seen. It's been praised up and down by just about everyone and for good reason. It currently has a 97% on Rotten Tomatoes. This show will have you in your feelings so much by the time you finish even one episode you'll be as exhausted as the employees of The Pitt. I didn't think the every episode is an hour (like 24) would work for a medical show but I was wrong. It not only works but is a big reason why this series is so good. The pacing of each episode makes them fly by. No show or movie you've ever seen will prepare you for the experience of watching The Pitt. With how many medical series that have been made it's amazing that the genre was able to come out with such an original show as The Pitt.
