We’re only a few months away from The Pitt‘s Season 2 premiere in January 2026, so there’s no better time than now to watch (or rewatch) the Emmy-winning drama.
‘The Pitt’ review: Noah Wyle medical drama is part ‘ER,’ part ’24,’ and all compelling
The series takes viewers inside one 15-hour-long shift in a Pittsburgh emergency department, where an ensemble of healthcare workers, led by Dr. Michael “Robby” Robinavitch (Noah Wyle), work hard to provide care for their patients. Their day plays out in real time, with each episode representing one hour of the shift. The result is a gripping window into the ailing American healthcare system, tackling sensitive topics like abortion and gun violence, and also featuring deeply realistic depictions of medical procedures. The Pitt became a smash hit on HBO Max and went on to win Emmys for Outstanding Drama Series, Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series (Wyle), and Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series (Katherina LaNasa).
