There is a very specific female fatigue that comes from knowing exactly what is happening, explaining exactly what is happening, being told you are overreacting, and then watching exactly what is happening happen with excellent punctuality.
@C4RTWRONG I don't think a show that is meant to focus on an ensemble can realistically sustain itself long-term unless it gives more attention to the ensemble and actually gives them storylines with substances instead of just making them sidekicks to the main character all of the time.
why is it not clicking to the “robby show” people that the problem is not that he is the main character, but rather the fact that they have already showed us in s1 that they are perfectly capable of balancing his main role with the rest of the ensemble
I just don’t get it, you could literally read a book every day until you die and not even scratch the surface of what’s been written. The bottleneck has never been quantity, who is demanding more poorly written crap
The Pitt season two had some amazing moments and some super disappointing ones. Strap yourselves in for a marathon of a podcast!

noah wyle really said with his whole chest that a night shift would be boring because “it’s mostly mothers who work the night shift”. first of all… yikes, second of all, i didn’t know abbot, shen, ellis, crus, mateo, etc. were mothers…
This doesn’t even make sense when canonically you have Ellis, Shen, Crus, Toomarian & Abbot on nights - none of whom have kids. And McKay, Al-Hashimi, Dana (and Langdon and Donnie if we want to stretch to fathers) on the day shift. So is it boring or not??
they don’t get that we liked robby in season 1. he was a complicated guy, but layered. he was the star, but it was truly an ensemble. season 2 was just blah in general. even the patient plots were less compelling. i stg dana and robby had the same convo like 4 eps in a row.
nothing against jalen obviously but it’s situations like this and them moving heaven and earth to keep patrick ball with the show that makes the “rotating cast” “storytelling” explanations for tracy and supriya’s exits such obvious bullshit
“This scene threads the needle in … what’s so obviously a slow(er)-burn romance.” Series creator R. Scott Gemmill confirmed much by saying, “I think there’s something interesting there anyway. That may be something to explore down the line.” They’re starting to after this scene.
finding out they didn’t intend for robby’s treatment of samira to come off the way it has is so fucking funny bc it was actually one of the more interesting dynamics in the show! they just accidentally stumbled into good writing and instead of embracing it they’re backtracking
