If there’s one word that summarizes The Pitt, it is ‘authenticity’. The drug dosing, the protocols, the procedures all match up as closely as they can with real life. To say that it has outstanding practical effects work would be a massive understatement. A lot of people who have lived this life had to have put in real effort to deliver the most believable medical show that I’ve ever seen — and one that doesn’t treat its audience like they’re stupid. The characters are all human, flaws and all and act consistently. Sensitive types may be upset that non-white/non-straight people exist and are portrayed within the show, but they should firmly be ignored. There is nothing “woke” about this show; it’s a sincere portrayal of an inner city trauma center with all of the variety of characters that come along with that. Outstanding television, through and through.
