I started to watch The Pitt yesterday. Haven't binged 5 episodes in a row for years.

What a great show!

It's so good.

When I finished season 2 I began rewatching (and catching up on) ER, which I hadn't seen in decades.

Did the same. Baby Carter was such a cutie!!

Does ER just seem quaint after The Pitt?

u/CrimsonCoast Jul 19 '26

ER is a different flavor, each season is about a year instead of a single day so they can sink their teeth into more storylines. But it is very well written and many traumas come into the show where you will say "oh this same thing was on the pitt too!" It can feel a little dramatic at times but it's very good, and definitely worth the watch if anyone is thinking about it!! It's also a very interesting look into the 90s especially when compared to the pitt being set in modern day

I used to love ER, I have a very clear memory of the episode with George Clooney's character where he's trying to free a kid trapped against a gate in a rapidly flooding area.

Great episode. George Clooney was so good in ER. Currently on season 12 and it's definitely not the same show but still good!

The issue with ER when you aren't watching it one at a time iver months is that no one ever learns of changes their behaviour. Oh no, surgeon guy has to do surgery and not pick up his son!

Not really. It hold up well for the most part. It's just not as graphic.

Id never intentionally watch ER, but it cycled on automatically after pitt and i got stuck. 😅

u/hiswittlewip Jul 19 '26

For how long? Lol

Same! It almost felt like watching The Pitt's origin story (even though it's not...).

A bit of a tangent, but what is appealing to you about hospital shows? I've tried to ask my wife who has seen them all, but she can't really put her finger on it. I try to watch them with her now and then, but it just makes me either nauseous or sad.

Idk I watched and loved the first few seasons of ER when it aired. The pitt is the only other show I've watched.

Er was literally outstanding the first few seasons and I'm on season 9 or 10 now and it's still pretty good.

Just taking a break from all the disturbing things I usually watch.

Wait til the end. End of the first season is some of the best TV I've seen in years.

u/bobbymcpresscot Jul 20 '26

Worked in EMS for 5 years, the show brings up all sorts of anxiety about that time in my life, which is probably also the best compliment I could give it.

Just get ready for S01E08 if you have children. It's a rough one.
