We should get the bingo card rolling for season 2 injuries/cases.



That would be amazing

I finally had time to catch the season finale. What a great, well made show. Excellent.

Shout out to the one nurse who apparently has a cooler of beer ready to go every shift, in case it's a bad one.

Finished this recently, really enjoyed it. The 1 episode per hour of shift was really interesting, kept the pace up and I kept wanting to watch another to see where things were going. That said, I did feel like a lot of the dialogue and interactions were how the writers think people should treat each other. Especially when Noah was comforting the doc who had the miscarriage. Not once did he hug or put his arm around her. Maybe people in Pittsburgh have a larger personal space, but I felt like it was a case of him overly respecting her autonomy and not having consent to physically comfort her or something.

Such a damn good show. I have no interest in medical shows normally too.

George Clooney is sending Noah Wyle his praises for his work on The Pitt.

The former ER co-stars have remained friends since working on the NBC medical drama, and while appearing on Late Night with Seth Meyers, Clooney expressed his happiness over Wyle's success.

"Have you guys seen that show?" Clooney asks the audience after Meyers brought it up. "It's so good."

Clooney then recalled that he and Wyle have "been really dear friends since we did the pilot [for ER]," adding, "He is just the most honorable, talented young man. I get to say [that] because I'm an old man and I cannot be happier for his success on the show. The show is just a beautiful show, and he does just a great job with it."

7 episodes in. I almost quit after 2 episodes because its just a lot and as someone that doesnt have anxiety...it was giving me anxiety. The acting was just too good though I couldnt stop.

Dr. Robby is one of the best characters I have ever seen.

and Dr. King is the best.

The wife and I watched this over several nights not too long ago. I don't normally have much interest in these kind of shows - watched ER occasionally back when that was all the rage - but this one grabbed me from the get-go. Characters were great. And it did feel real.

Saw that season 2 is slated to begin in January.

I binged this show over the last couple of weeks and it's great, but damn it's intense. Pretty sure this show is better served watching one episode per week so you can decompress from each one. Watching 1-2 per day is not recommended, I learned my lesson.

Very few shows have me wanting more after watching. This was one of them.

I just watched the whole season over the last couple days with my father in law. Don't have max, so that was one reason, but also just had to keep going. Great show.

I'm only like 5 episodes into this, and this show seems to try to sell itself on being realistic, but how realistic is it that ER docs don't wear face masks when doing a surgery?

Also, I am not sure I can take much more wokeness. I am rooting for the mom that interrupted her 17 year old's late abortion. I want the doctors who falsified the record to face consequences, but I get the feeling that won't happen.

No need to worry about the mom and abortion. The mom agrees to it after she gets over the initial shock.

p.s. You seem to be looking for wokeness where it doesn't exist.

The thing that keeps irritating me about all of it.....

Why if beds are so scarce and wait times so long, are they keeping the mom who admitted to taking ipecac to make herself vomit, in the ER? Why not release her or stick her in a wheelchair to get her fluids and free up a bed?

And apparently if you come in thru the waiting room, you have a 5-6 hour wait. But if you walk in through the ambulance entrance, you get seen right away. Why don't they send people who walk in thru ambulance entrance to the lobby to wait with everyone else? Guess if I ever need the ER, I'm instructing hubby to walk me in thru ambulance entrance.

And the amount of people who come in for crap that can be taken care of in urgent care or a regular doctor's office is INFURIATING. yes, I know that's actually what happens in ERs, so that's not me dogging on the show. Just expressing my frustration about the idiocy of people who think their cut, sprained ankle, or 99.2 fever is ER-worthy.

It's a great show, but it's like the writers have a checklist of every controversial and woke issue in the past 5 years to meet their wickets. There's definitely no overlooking or noticing it.

Yeah I just saw that episode. The black doctor then has a miscarriage right after pushing the abortion of an innocent baby. I guess karma wins over woke.

Man, you'd have been frustrated as hell watching me work last night with a few of the patients that walked in or came in by ambulance. A family of 5 checking in for cough, after one of the kids was already diagnosed with RSV. Having to figure out through sign language that another guy decided to come in for 5 years of leg swelling after he had already been at another ER but decided to leave and call 911 to pick him up from there to come to us "because we have better Wi-Fi". Another guy showing up for his 24th time in 4 months because now he believes he has temporal arteritis after putting his symptoms into chatGPT because he had 10 minutes of left temple pain. Or the every day issue of "I decided to check my blood pressure at 3 in the morning and it was high but im not having any symptoms."
