5/5
Captivating even without the spectacle of Season 1, The Pitt goes from strength to strength. Its vitals have never been stronger. Go to Full Review

The Pitt has been brave in highlighting how hard it actually is to keep your empathy up over time for people who you love as they go through mental-health struggles. Go to Full Review
David Sims The Atlantic Apr 21
The Pitt’s excellent Season 2 didn’t attempt to match or outdo the crisis of last year’s PittFest calamity. Instead, it managed to wring equally compelling drama out of all of its characters just having a really, really crappy day. Go to Full Review

The tide turned on the show a little bit—but season 2 proves it’s trying to build itself to last. Go to Full Review

Season two struggles with its format but not its heart Go to Full Review
Ayaan Paul Chowdhury The Hindu Apr 23
For most of its 15-hour stretch, the season remains compulsively watchable because it understands and trusts the grind of the job to generate momentum. But the writing isn’t as sharp this time, and the slippage is hard to ignore once it starts. Go to Full Review

Brian D @Brianwd2 May 6 81%. 4/22/26. This season was 4th of July so some crazy fireworks accidents, sunburns, etc. They also have the computer system shut down so they go all to paper. The bulk of it is around Robie's character going on leave and a bike trip after the day. Season was good but just not at the same level as the first season. Some storylines were overdramatized. Still just love the plot of this show. Excited for season 3 See more Earth L @RT42189480 May 6 Writing this review as a "general audience" view. An emotional and tender experience and a must watch for anybody who's somewhat interested in understanding medicine, the people working medicine and their struggles. There isnt a show like The Pitt that can so accurately depict that every one is a "main character" in their own life, that is to say, that everyone in the Pitt is struggling, battling, fighting something they personally have. I absolutely love the character writing between the whole cast and their differing opinions on the same case. This show really creates a space in my heart for people working in any kind of hospital. 9.5/10 :) See more Robbie F @Smallpotatoes123 May 5 I hate medical shows but absolutely love this no romance story lines just day in the life of good stuff See more karen N. @karen99 May 1 Riveting! Great acting, love the characters. Can't wait to see the season 3 See more erroll F. @Repok Apr 29 Riveting medical drama.
