What This Means For The Pitt Season 2

The Show Is Taking A Balanced Approach

The cast ofThe Pittis relatively large, including Tracy Ifeachor, Patrick Ball, Katherine LaNasa, Supriya Ganesh, Fiona Dourif, Taylor Dearden, Isa Briones, Gerran Howell, and Shabana Azeez in main roles alone. With a time jump of almost one year,a lot can happen to their characters off-screen. It’s an interesting creative choice to have the audience catching up with some of their favorite faces, all while chaos is sure to unfold.

Dr. McKay was arrested for tampering with her ankle monitor at the end of The Pitt episode 14 - here’s what it means for her and for the finale.

The Pitt’s season 1 finale will stream on Max on April 10, bringing an end to an exceptionally difficult shift. But there’s hardly a guarantee that the second installment will be a big improvement. The weekend of July 4th, celebrating Independence Day in the U.S., is a time for fireworks-related injuries and possibly drunken accidents. Most likely, it will add up to Dr. Robby and his team having a whole bunch of emergencies to contend with.

Our Take On The Pitt Season 2

Can’t Wait To See It

The buzzy new series has done a lot to tweakthe tropes of the medical drama, upping the stakes by putting the audience right in the eye of the storm with its real-time structure. It is an approach that can’t always sustain itself. But by placing the story in a holiday setting and doing a bit of a timeline skip,The Pittchanges things up while sticking with the core premise.
