It's funny... I have bought enough Apple stuff to score a free year of Apple TV but never really watch it. I'm getting yelled at by my boss for not watching Severance. It does sound like they are killing it, and I should pay more attention to what they're doing.
I've been watching The Pitt, about 6 episodes in. Easily the best show I've watched in the last few years. As someone who just starting being an EMT again and is embarking on EMT-I training, it's wildly accurate when dealing with ER staff. If Noah Wyle doesn't get an Emmy it will be criminal.
I think medically, it’s the most accurate medical show I’ve ever seen. I spent 4 years in a level 1 trauma so that part was good. The only thing I don’t like about the show is the amount of shit that happens in 1 day between the people on a personal level. On my worst day at the hospital, we saw no where near that amount of shit. But I suppose in order to make it good tv, you need more than just blood and guts.
Completely agree, that was a hang-up for me as well. The amount of catastrophic shit in one day was hard to believe. Most of the time it's toddlers with fevers or old people with shortness of breath. But fentanyl overdoses + measles infection + mass shooting was a little far-fetched. But I get it since the point was to illustrate how overwhelmed emergency services can be. My other hang-up was how everything was wrapped up so quickly. Lab and CT results are not back in 10 minutes, and an overwhelmed ER is not going to tell you to come back for a check-up. You will be immediately referred to primary care. Those issues aside, I love it so far.
Andor season 2 fires up tomorrow. I’m super excited for it! Arguably the best series in the Star Wars universe (close fight with the Mandalorian in my books), but it’s finally a place where stormtroopers are scary and can shoot.
Season 2 of the last of us kicked of two weeks ago. Episode 2 debuted last night and was damn good IMO. But it did piss a lot of people off, Lol.
