The Pitt is here at last! But can HBO’s medical drama possibly be as good as everyone’s saying?

Summary: HBO has a new medical drama called The Pitt, starring Noah Wyle from the classic show ER. If you are looking for crazy soap-opera drama and wild scandals like you see on Grey's Anatomy, this show might not be for you. Instead, it offers a realistic, hour-by-hour look at a single 15-hour shift in a struggling Pittsburgh emergency room.

At first, the doctors might seem a bit cold because they have to push their own feelings aside to focus on their patients. But as the show goes on, you get to see their personal struggles and deep emotions bleed into their work. Noah Wyle plays a tough, traumatized veteran doctor, which is a really cool change from his young, innocent student role on ER years ago. The show starts a bit slow, but it builds into an exciting, emotional, and highly binge-worthy story.
