The Pitt Has Entered Its West Wing Era

The second season picks up ten months later, during a busy Fourth of July, and finds its footing by staying true to its strengths. Noah Wyle returns as Dr. Michael “Robby” Robinavitch, alongside the familiar team of doctors, nurses, interns, and students, dealing with typical holiday emergencies – barbecue accidents, firework injuries, and the usual challenges of the emergency room. While a few new medical students arrive and one character is missing, the show largely maintains the fast-paced medical accuracy and engaging character interactions that made the first season so compelling. There’s a significant plot twist mid-season, but it doesn’t quite have the same impact as the one in the first season.
