Audience Says

You might not want to spend time at The Pitt as a patient, but as entertainment, it’s one hell of a gripping show -- grounded, intense, and emotionally powerful.

Binging “The Pitt” allows us to remember that we’re watching one day, and one place, where a whole lot of short-sighted and greedy legislative decisions flock, leaving it to a group of dedicated people to patch up the victims -- us -- and keep going.

All in all, it was a very sharp season of television with outstanding performances across the board.

I cannot accept the part about surrogacy. Surrogacy is unacceptable under any circumstances. The rest is excellent.

Stellar. The writers interweave the drama of an emergency room while still making a really good narrative about why the nursing shortage is so devastating.

Absolute must watch it keeps you hooked and has all the emotions it’s painfully real and in your face which is something we don’t see a lot in tv.

It's one of the most accurate medical shows of all time, and it does not rely on any background music to convey emotion. Congratulations to everyone who worked on the first season of "The Pitt."
