Who is your favorite character and why? I really like Cassie, I love her story and her personality, she's perfect for me. I also really like Langdon and I feel bad seeing people treat him given what happened, I think he deserved forgiveness.

Some interesting information about cut scenes and character background. Spoilers beware!

Came across this today! It looks like Mel has new stressors in season 3. Apparently more of this interview will be out at a later time. Idk I feel like it’s very vague. I feel like maybe she pushes Langdon and Santos too far to be friends? Could it have to do with Becca? I feel like stressors could be anything.

Why did Robbie oppose Langdon's return to work so strongly and personally? Robbie, as a medical pro, knows about addiction. Langdon did the work to get sober -- he went to rehab, he is being tested in the hospital, he acknowledged what he'd done and personally apologized to Robbie and he's quite competent at his job. But what Robbie says, in return, was, I'm glad you got the help you needed but I don't want you in my ED? If anybody should know that addiction is not a morality issue or a choice it's Robbie, the physician. There is a huge element of effort and behaviour in achieving and maintaining sobriety but Langdon is doing it. Why is Robbie so unforgiving?

Disclaimer: I don't know know how hospitals work or the medical field, I'm just a viewer.

I've just completed season 2 and I'm wondering about Dr Al Hashimi's storyline. Reading the comments on this sub it appears that people are saying that could be the end of her being able to practice medicine.

But why though? Why is she an attending in the emergency department? This can't be her only option, can it?

I see how a seizure during an emergency is a massive risk. But aren't there other slower paced departments that she could practice in?

Also slight digression but, why does the day shift have just one attending? Given the workload and pressure I can see how it would lead to Robby feeling the way he is.

Dr Al Hashimi's recommendation for 2 attendings makes sense. (Or even more if possible. They seem to be working under way too much pressure as is.) How many attendings does a typical hospital ED usually have at a time?

I’m doing a rewatch and caught something in S2E5 that I hadn’t noticed before. Robby says something to Dana like “this day isn’t going the way I thought it would,” pointedly looking at Langdon. And Dana says, “we had a call out and he was available”. I always thought it was a little weird that everyone was so surprised to see Langdon, and that there was such little support in terms of helping him get back into the groove. Makes sense now that I’m realizing it was a shift he picked up rather than an official return date.

No real point here except it explains Robby and Santos being so caught off guard by him - he wasn’t supposed to be there yet. I wonder when his actual return was slated to be and what criteria he had to meet to be allowed back.

This happened like half an hour ago and I felt compelled to come here and share.

(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 before I remember waking up, drenched in sweat, saying "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.

Now I'm sitting here, mostly embarrassed and feeling awful for worrying my folks so much like that, and I'm just thinking: "Did I 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, and I remember I started 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 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.

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

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.

love these guys! also reuploading my other art because someone wanted the uncropped version. thanks :o

I’m familiar with the word, it’s when they treat the most severe cases first. But they talk about triage as if it’s a place. I’ve never watched a medical show before, so what is it when they say “I’m going to triage”?

I’m really enjoying the show. And I understand this is not real life in the ER. But in the last episode Santos goes into a patients room and threatens him because of a possible family child abuse situation. This scenario seems highly improbable. If this was an actual occurrence wouldn’t an intern be thrown out of the program if discovered? I understand this makes good drama but still…,,.

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.

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.

Just re-watching season 1 and I just adore this kid. Watching him pull Robby out of his PTSD meltdown just now and he's just so pure of heart. He's exactly the kind of person I would want in a doctor.

Idk if anything came out about season 3 but a season 3 night shift would be really cool. Wanted to see what everyone else thought?

and i don’t mean continuity errors or easter eggs, i mean like “santos uses attitude and is so-called ‘mean’ as a defense mechanism but everyone just calls her a b*tch”

i have a few about santos and robby in particular, but i’m curious to hear what else people think!

there will be another page with other guys

Actually not Kimmel but Colman Domingo guest hosting.

Hi!! Two friends of mine have recommended The Pitt to me, but I'm aware that the show can get very graphic. I do know about the foot scene in s1 ep1 and I was wondering how graphic it is exactly?

Also, if it's not too much to ask, I'd love to know the general timeframe of when the scene starts and ends or how many times/how long the actual injury is on-screen.

^^ sorry if I'm asking a bit much, I wouldn't describe myself as squeamish, but gore can really affect me if I'm not prepared for it. I do plan to watch the show on a smaller screen (probably my phone) as a precaution, if that changes anything. Thank you!!

I'm not sure what I can say and not say (Spillers etc) but man that ending was tragically sad. I am imagining that's the last we see of her for a while
