It’s all in a day’s work as we settle in for another long and soul-testing shift at Pittsburgh’s Trauma Medical Center, the setting for this deservedly Emmy-winning medical drama that reinvents the ER formula with an hour-by-hour emotional urgency. To its credit, the second season of The Pitt doesn’t try to top the first with melodramatic excess. Just making it through the day is an accomplishment.
Leading a remarkably appealing ensemble of dedicated and exhausted doctors, nurses, residents, and med students, Noah Wyle‘s Dr. Robby watches the clock with extra intensity on this July 4 tour of duty that’s anything but a holiday. He’s planning to start a three-month motorcycle sabbatical the next day, mocked as a midlife crisis by many of his skeptical coworkers, though the factors prompting his departure are more complicated.
