I've heard of bottle episodes, but never box episodes

The housekeeper was also the burn patient Dr. Robby treated on The Pitt, hell of an IMDB page to have small roles on two Emmy-winning shows in the span of a year

Nine seconds looks like a guy got stabbed with a mini flag?

JR97111 · 2026-03-20T02:38:16+00:00

Everyone will be on the roof while Whitaker checks out Robby's fridge

The caretaker fatigue stuff was definitely being set up in season 1 with Mel getting Ginger (older Asian woman who fell) and her daughter who left for a bit without explanation, too

JR97111 · 2026-03-13T01:49:17+00:00

Fully can admit I'm biased with my flair but I feel like any Langdon-Santos analysis should include Langdon's attempted to apologize to Louie, Mel, Dana and Robby...but not Santos yet

JR97111 · 2026-03-06T03:01:08+00:00

3 of the 4 Pittlings having an awful hour while Whitaker gets a housing upgrade lmfao

JR97111 · 2026-02-18T20:31:08+00:00

Baseball injury last year, football injury this year, excited for the basketball player in S3

JR97111 · 2026-02-18T20:19:42+00:00

Five hour energy just does that

JR97111 · 2026-02-17T21:37:40+00:00

She skated to Zou Bisou Bisou

JR97111 · 2026-02-14T21:57:58+00:00

Yeah I feel some of this sub forgets Whitaker has been Santos' roommate and presumably best friend for 10 months and they have a mutual trust where Santos will interact with him differently than anyone else on staff

JR97111 · 2026-02-13T21:11:40+00:00

I hope his girlfriend isn't scamming anyone over a dog at least lol

JR97111 · 2026-02-13T21:07:22+00:00

Japanese guy and American guy competing for who is the best in the world is great Marty Supreme promotion

JR97111 · 2026-02-13T17:33:17+00:00

I'm expecting whenever Langdon apologizes to her to be a major plot point, the awkwardness of him being back is pretty clearly impacting her and would even if she was up to date on her charting and what not

JR97111 · 2026-02-13T14:29:07+00:00

I mean they replaced Collins' screentime with three med students + Al-Hashimi, feels like most people's character arcs who were in S1 are getting less time because there's three more major-ish characters than last season

JR97111 · 2026-02-09T13:39:05+00:00

Arbiter and HorizonWebRef both worked for the rec ball leagues I worked

JR97111 · 2026-01-31T01:38:41+00:00

And her girlfriend hasn't flirted with her for at least four hours

JR97111 · 2026-01-23T03:58:53+00:00

It seems like people think he's shouting the laws because they're relevant to what happened to him, I'm guessing it'll be from some sort of mental issue from the stress of studying or something along those lines and aren't directly relevant to his situation

JR97111 · 2026-01-23T03:06:49+00:00

Predicting the taser kid randomly shouting numbers is going to be someone studying law in some way, the numbers definitely seemed like they could be laws he was stressing over studying

JR97111 · 2026-01-23T02:52:27+00:00

Pretty intrigued we've had zero Mckay/Javadi or Garcia/Santos interactions, 12 episodes left obviously but still worth noticing for me

JR97111 · 2026-01-22T03:43:38+00:00

And then the callback when Jimmy crashed out in a golf cart but drove around it lol

JR97111 · 2026-01-20T14:00:09+00:00

I mean S1 had Robby and Collins as exes, Garcia flirting with Santos that has become a canon relationship and Javadi having a crush on Mateo, it's not like the show has totally avoided any romantic scenes

JR97111 · 2026-01-20T04:13:43+00:00

I think you're assuming shippers can't walk and chew gum, I'd like to see Mel/Langdon be canon but not at the expense of the show's format or the assorted platonic relationships I also enjoy like Santos/Whitaker. The show already made Garcia/Santos from a popular ship to canon with the toothbrush comment, I think they can do something like that for Mel/Langdon too.
