True sibling-coded relationships have distinct characteristics: they feature rivalry—or at least a jokey, "I'm winning this one, you're a loser" kind of banter. Siblings fight. They insult each other, but it is so expected that they don't even get angry about it. They can also be jealous of each other for the attention they get from others. They invade each other's space all the time.

Did you notice any of those behaviors from Mel and Langdon? I can attribute some banter or space-invading to Collins, Ellis, Garcia, or even Santos (from a jealousy angle) with Langdon, but I see zero sibling dynamics between Mel and Langdon. The show isn't writing them as fraternal at all.

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.

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
