The Pitt (HBO Max) TV Show • Page 59

I definitely get that it’s petty and insignificant but frankly that’s kind of a huge part of what I love about this show in particular: that the drama between the characters is based in stuff that is far more grounded and true to real life than a generic high stakes life-or-death drama. Like who *doesn’t* heavily relate to getting stuck working alongside someone you no longer like/trust? Or being on Langdon’s side as well: you’re stuck with them and you know how they feel and you’re trying your best to mend the relationship, but they aren’t able to look past it like you’d hope

 

Oooh. Very good cliffhanger.

 

yes in general but saying they shouldn’t have scheduled Langdon for Robby’s last shift before his leave made me laugh

 

Honestly thought that was the best episode of the season by a pretty large margin.

 

Anybody catch the shot of cutting scars on Santos? This show is so good at "show don't tell" character development.

 

I actually didn't catch it until I read in this very thread, and went back and tah dah

 

It would be cool if this "what specialty will Javadi choose?" plot ends with her choosing neither Robby in ER, her mom in Surgery, or or her dad in some fancy high paid specialty; but being inspired by Dr. Jackson to go into Psych.

Edit

Oh damn that must be telegraphed because other people in this thread got that vibe it might go there too.

 

Does ACAB include Dr. Abbott?

I love that they're totally leaning into the Abbott-Mohan shippers in the fan community lol

 

Abbott/Mohan shippers? Ehhhhh

 

Oh yeah they were everywhere on twitter/reddit after the season 1 finale.

 

Ah, 2 places I avoid. That tracks. Haha

 

glad you felt that too ; )

 

it was killing my wife at how no one was picking up the screaming baby lol

 

Two episodes into season 2. We got some serious dong going on.

 

1. The show seemingly presents that the baby is alone in there a LOT, am I wrong? It's the baby eating?? Napping?? What is happening!!!
2. Somewhat related, after having kids it's shocking how pregnancy and birth is often portrayed on TV, feels so unrealistic now

 

I will say I really appreciate how they handled the sexual assault case. The care they took into showing what was involved. Obviously I’ve never been affected that way. I would have never known what that process looks like. And hopefully that could help ease people into going through with it if they were in the fence about it. Even if it’s not accurate, just showing what it could be like can go a long way

 

this show is just so good man. give me all the seasons

 

I couldn't tell if we were in the Knight of the Seven Kingdoms thread or not. Guess the second episode of each show has similar shots lol

 

I liked the slight reference this episode during the Abbott and Al-Hashimi conversation to when the US bombed a Doctors Without Borders hospital in Afghanistan in 2015.

 

Less Joy and more Huckleberry please

 

this show when Dr. Abbott’s shift starts

 

"Can we please stop talking about ghosts?" was a devastatingly sad line.

 

Apparently there are The Pitt fans who are coming up with a bunch of weird theories about the terminal cancer mom case. It's like if you don't understand their behavior you must have never been in a similar situation with a loved one dying from terminal illness, because that's the vibes. The home hospice nurse for my grandma a couple days before she died told us "yeah he is freaking out" about my grandpa because he was being so controlling, pushy, and on edge during everything happening.

 

yeah I've yet to feel like anything nefarious is going on other than her choosing to be comfortable in the hospital and trying to push her family to start letting go and start living their lives.

 

I generally think the theory discourse around this show is annoying
