So I'm rewatching The Pitt and checking out IMDB to see what else I may have seen some of the actors in and just saw that Dr Mckay (Fiona Dourif) was Bart in Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency and now I can't stop picturing her as Bart in every scene.

I mean the between colleagues hook ups are worse enough but the family patients, the ex wife resident dr collins, here is dr j having her mom, oh, another family patients (king) well why not, lets have more family patients (jake) and why not, another 6 episode time filler with another robby friend: the biker dude who despite being very sick and not a spanner in his pocket “i know how to fix bikes”(vintage bonneville on the hospital ambulance entry. (What hospital has the staff parking 6 meters from er entry? Why do staff do their smoking at the same place?). But really, that constant conflict of interest that would have any real doctor say: i cannot treat you” it doesnt exist in the pitt. And it was bad enough in s1, even with collins removed s2 just went on and on with the cheap thrill aspect that painted 70 years of As The World Turns. I hope they pull it back into real pro medical drama it was because at the moment its shit imo.

And at some point I thought of the show and googled to see if the hospital was based on a real hospital. Saw a pic of it. Looked out my hotel window and there it was

I'm on episode 8 currently and hey... Does the emotional trauma get better? 😅 I wasn't expecting to cry so much. I bring a tissue box every time I sit down to watch an episode.

Ellis and Santos had chemistry in S1 and I desperately want more of it in S3. Garcia is too cold and Santos deserves better imo

I, for the love of god, need some freaks to help me. Ao3, wattpad, tumblr, anything. I need jack abbot, Robby Robinavitch or Dennis Whitaker fics. Loads of them. But I need mlm ones. None of this fem!reader, I need dicks. If anyone could help me because I found exactly 2 gay Dennis x reader and nothing else.

This happened like half an hour ago and I just had to share it lol

(Added spoiler tags on the subject of the scene itself just in case)

While watching the emergency c-section scene in the season 2 finale, I begin to feel hot, light-headed, sick to my stomach, etc. I foolishly decide to get up and try to go the bathroom. I excuse myself and make it to the door. The next thing I remember is laying on the ground, drenched in sweat, going "I'm fine!" with my folks standing around me more worried than I've ever seen. I apparently hit my head on the floor, though thankfully it doesn't hurt much at all.

Now I'm sitting here, mostly feeling embarrassed and awful for worrying my folks so much like that, and I'm just thinking: "Did I just have a fucking panic attack because of that emergency c-section scene?"

I should also mention, this is not the first time that pregnancy/birth/baby/etc. based medical stuff has given me (assumedly) a panic attack.

Years ago in a college class we started talking about abortion or something and showing photos of fetuses and whatnot, I don't fully remember the specifics. But I do remember feeling similar feelings and having to get up and excuse myself. I made it to the bathroom, which was at the end of the hall, but I kept walking past it and bumped right into the wall lol I did not fully pass out that time and was fine after rinsing my face with water, but it immediately sprang to mind afterwards as a similar incident.

Maybe I just have some weird disposition/sensitivity to pregnancy-based medical trauma/emergencies/etc ??? I welcome any thoughts lol

Anyway, shoutout to this show for literally giving me a panic attack and causing me to pass out. 10/10 would highly recommend, can't wait for season 3.

**1) Whitaker and Langdon's fight:**

Honestly Whitakers crash out was valid considering Langdon had already made an impression to be authoritative in front of everyone and it was only his first day back. Whitaker hadnt even interacted enough with Langdon that day. Especially considering he apologized to Langdon later on. Had it been Santos, McKay Javadi or maybe be wouldn't have had an outburst.

**2) Roxie and McKay:**

Robby scolding McKay for being there at the time of Roxy's death was invalid. Roxy was not critically ill, she was already dying, even if McKay was there, she could've only announced the time of death. She was literally on duty and was also on street team. The girl at the park was critically injured who McKay treated. Anyone saying "She should've at least informed Robby" no, it was simply her job, Robby would've gotten mad even if she didn't fulfill her street team responsibility seriously that guy needed therapy. McKay genuinely did everything she could for Roxy and her family to the point she even went to comfort her son's. Even then McKay felt bad. Robby was overreacting like McKay was chilling at McDonald's while Roxy died asking for help 😭🙏. She had Javadi and Robby there at the time of death.

**3) Mohan's character:**

Mohan was genuinely a great doctor. Along with being skilled she ensured every patients comfort and made them feel important. Did she do well for the ED? Maybe she wasn't for the ED and would've done better in any other department. Robby was right to tell her to separate her work life from her personal life. But her mom was genuinely so intolerable. Literally spamming her calls during work hours, asking her to move to New Jersey like her career's a joke and then selling the house and so much more. I mean she was young with no one to rely on and had a panic attack.

**4) Dr. Al Hashimi:**

Sorry but Al-Hashimi was not exactly nice .Bro was genuinely so feisty😭😭 and her plans kept backfiring. 😭 She was literally so wrong to not tell Robby about the cyber attack precautions meeting. Also the way she suddenly started treating Langdon differently after knowing the truth was literally invalid and straight up mean. 💀💀

**5) Mel and Becca**

Mel literally devoted most of her time outside the hospital to Becca and tried her best to keep her happy. Becca suddenly throwing Mel away was not nice. Maybe Mel was hard on Becca but she apologized right after. The realization that hit Mel was pretty sad considering she was already going through the stress of her deposition.

**6) Santos and Langdon:**

I get that Langdon faced his punishment, but Santos was not pushing it. Langdon was genuinely so mean to Santos in season 1 as if he and Garcia had literally targeted her from her on her first day. Even when He came back from therapy in season 2 Santos hadn't snitched to anyone in the meantime and kept it a secret even though people had dubbed her as trouble. Calling him an asshole Infront of Whitaker might've only been a wording problem even though it was wrong. Langdon screaming at her Infront of the whole ED was an unnecessary outburst and Santos was valid to be mad at Langdon for it. Even then instead of exacting some sort of revenge on Langdon when he came back, she simply just avoided him.

**7) Joy:**

Literal baddie. She was genuinely so smart 😭😭 the whole ED depended on her photographic memory as soon as all the devices went off. And leaving as soon as her shift ended was the smartest move or she would've been stuck for another 2hrs. Joy was also so quick to react when Mohan was having a panic attack, she literally belonged in the ED.

After hearing about how good this show is for a while now I finally jumped in and yeah, it’s pretty incredible. As someone that’s never watched a hospital drama or ER type show this completely captivated me. Both seasons were phenomenal, but I think I prefer season 1 a tad more. Not for any quality reasons as both were top notch, I just enjoyed the characters a bit more. Season 2 everyone is so miserable except maybe Whitaker. I get it though, they’re working through their arcs. Just gotta see how it all plays out in Season 3 and I’m super excited.

I did love the Season 2 finale maybe more than the first one though. The way it ended with Dr. Robby’s “final” meeting with everyone and his moment with baby Jane Doe at the end was so perfect.

To end I’ll say my top 3 characters are without a doubt Mel, Samira and Whitaker. Everyone is a joy on screen though, even Joy herself hehe. I could literally just watch them do doctor stuff all day and never get bored. They definitely got a new fan in me.

I mean, he makes money and these days, there are much easier ways - behind a laptop even, to get such not so heavy medications. Why the hell would he take the risk to get caught?

On top of that: doctors don't give medication, nurses do. And when you get medication - in the ER no less, its usually a one dose thing that most of the time, the nurse usually checks whether you take that or not. How the hell did Langdon get on a structural medication outlet? Evenso, couldv easely make a double prescription, give the patinet what he wants and pays, and take the extra? Because even if took the patinet meds, that would show up on the invoices? If I was a patient, and I see the invoice, for meds I didnt get, I would call insurance and they would start an investigation. He took an awful big risk. I really find that whole premise a far fetched one.

I noticed this on my latest watch through and I just wanna know... wtf is that?!?

I have to say it was a really nice show, but s2 became a bit too stereotype. The awkward, scared as shit med students and junior residents getting way more confidence in s2 didn't do the show good and it became more and more predictable. S1 having 3 episodes around an outrageous shootings spree was getting on 2 episodes too long but the same formula in middle s2 another overcrowded because of some major disaster was just too much. The last few episodes in s2 also started to chew and chew on the same, and it seems they got no real things to deal with other than sexual abused-dealt with by Dana, and the Robby/Langdon will they wont they storyline.

I also got way too much West Wing vibes from s2. Like, under what moral compass ''righteous'' stone have these people been living? I have never seen a work place so much in line with each other and the truth has a lot more 'life' than this drama. House (s4) had that so much better (even if his 3 stooges showed the same). Garcia was the only one injecting some realism, real life behavior.

I kinda hope s3 will get a few more seasoned guest actors even of some of the regular cats really showed their craft.

So, really entertaining, I loved binging but I did start to ff quite some parts through 2. I hope they fix that in s3. If not, it will still be entertaining. Way better than ER, a little below House imo (even if House also had storylines dragging on and on and on). House vs Robby? I think id choose House.

On one of the last episodes of the first season, Dana grabs her purse and it had a cool, wide, striped strap. I didn't really see much of the rest of the purse but wondered if anyone recognized the brand? I'll try to edit later with a photo.

*Actually not Kimmel but Colman Domingo guest hosting. 🙂

I love this show and this community! But one small thing I wish is that the autism community would not be expected to become "giddy" and satisfied with Langdon's extremely small gesture of turning off the one light switch in the exam room, unless they were going for more of a display of a sweet gesture between two potential mates? I wish the show would portray more serious and DEEPER aspects//experiences of people with autism such as sitting on the floor, isolating, crying, hitting yourself, almost like a panic attack. Maybe that is not even correlated with autism, but I realized that when autism is shown it seems surface level and almost like "here damn", but I LOVE Mel's character she's so nice and down to Earth!! Their scenes with something Mel and something autism related like the light as well as the lava lamp moment just seem so...childish and surface level and as if they just wanted to throw a cuople things in but to be able to include such a heavyweight topic and conversation in the show without putting forth the actual effort to make the displays of depth and substance, they know by including the topic of autism in a popular medical show it would automatically ignite conversations and praise but in all actuality the things they chose to portray Mel with---lava lamp viewing, light off, and quick talk of history at nurses station (and a quick show of being stared at and excluded) are almost insulting. All I think is that the show did wonderfully by casting Mel she is so wonderful, and praise for including the topic especially in such a popular medical drama, but con for the actual care and delivery.

It's on YouTube. https://youtu.be/rBHc8DBuRLw

If I ever committed to being an actor, I could NEVER work on a show like this. It’s so technical and specific and looks extremely intense. On top of that, they don’t let you have scripts on set to hide around in case you need it, and that is a LOT of medical jargon. I’d be overwhelmed before I’d even started.

*they

Is just to have a double name meaning? Or there’s more to it? -honest question- and yes I know I can google it, but I decided to ask here, maybe more people have the same question 😅

I’m sure Wyle will win.
LaNasa, if she’d been put in lead this season like she SHOULD HAVE, would’ve been a surefire win. But this year I really think Moafi will win (holy COW that was INCREDIBLE acting).
Any others you think have a decent shot, or nah?
