As a TV critic, I have to say R. Scott Gemmill, known for his work on ER, has delivered a compelling premise with The Pitt. The show centers around Noah Wyle – yes, that Noah Wyle! – who not only stars as Dr. Michael “Robby” Robinavitch, a seasoned attending physician at a Pittsburgh hospital, but also wears multiple hats as an executive producer, writer, and director. Robby’s in charge of the entire emergency department team, but here’s the twist: he’s clearly still grappling with the trauma of the pandemic. And, adding to the drama, he’s just one shift away from a much-needed three-month break – a cross-country motorcycle trip, no less – which promises a fascinating setup for the season.
