Okay, so the first season of The Pitt gave us a pretty standard look inside a hospital. But let me tell you, season two is ramping things up! It’s set during the super busy Fourth of July weekend, and just when things couldn’t get more chaotic, the hospital loses power! That means even more emergencies for the team to handle. What I really appreciate is that now that we know the characters, the show can really dig into their stories, while still delivering that fast-paced, gripping medical drama that everyone loves.
