5/5
The Pitt is so strong that it shows up the increasingly lazy habits of its TV peers: the assumption that audiences cannot grasp difficult dialogue, the constant exposition and recapping, and a reliance on sudden shocks over depth. Go to Full Review
Linda Holmes NPR Feb 10
It's a season of great complexity not only because these problems are seen through a longer lens but also because everyone is sometimes right. Go to Full Review

9.5/10
Fortunately The Pitt isn't just a PSA dressed up in scripted TV show clothing. It's a living, pulsating television organism that's incredibly gripping, often laugh-out-loud funny... and blessed with a massive cast of top-to-bottom excellent actors. Go to Full Review

Sure, The Pitt is just a TV show, and there are millions of them. But it is a reminder that there is another way, a different path that we could take, if we want to. Go to Full Review

[The season] works thanks to its foundations, especially due to Wyle's outstanding performance, but it falters when trying to inject new energy that never quite flows smoothly. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review

Season 2 may not be as exhilarating as its debut, but it’s still a remarkably thoughtful arc that continues to highlight all that’s flawed in the system while delivering character moments that we’ll think about long after. Go to Full Review

Ben S @RT00047044 5h Loved every bit of Season 1, am enjoying season 2 (minus the heavy handed, misguided messaging). I know the intent of showing how many of the hospital staff was afraid of ICE is supposed to make us feel bad, but in reality, it points out how employers break the law and get away with it. The overall story/acting/all of it are fantastic though, so I can overlook it. See more Gabriel K. @GabeKnowMovies 2d This is the my favorite medical drama I’ve ever watched. I wish more medical dramas were like this. Most try to be too all about the drama and intense, not saying the Pitt is not intense, but they touch on real world problems and do not over exaggerate. Also it’s of course the most accurate medical drama to date which is great to see. See more Courtney T. @RT51918089 2d Loved season 1. Season 2? Meh... See more Jonetta A @Jonetta 4d Well, I binged through season 1 and am now up to date. This is even better than the first season. See more Rhonda S. @RT60004994 4d This show has the potential to be great, but too much politicizing. See more John O @Johno243 5d The Pit up to mid season 2 was the best show on TV. Unfortunately the writers decided to throw their political one sided view and throw it up All over the show. Sad See more Read all reviews
