Gave episode 1 of The Pitt a chance. I usually hate medical dramas because I have to yell at the screen about inaccuracies. The whole vibe is usually wrong.
This one is, I grudgingly have to admit, solid. Pretty real, actually. Maybe a little too real for people with squeamish stomachs. I even cheered twice when they said the systemic problems out loud.
Only had 3 issues with it, which is great. A doctor isn’t going to run down the street after anyone, especially not a non patient. Potassium 6.1 is no bueno. And no administrator would debase herself among the riffraff, worse, risk her pretty pink suit, by coming down to the patient care area to talk to someone. She’d summon people to her clean, quiet office instead. The artistic license works there though because it conveys what needs to be conveyed about hospital administrators, including the blatant disregard she shows all of the human suffering unfolding around her.
They cram a lot of pertinent info into one little episode. Noah Wylie of ER (terrible medical show) is recycled here. And Homelander is in it as a normal person.

Great! I was on the fence on this show for the exact same reasons.
And do you mean Omlandah? Fantastic actor in Banshee.
