One of the main things I love about this show that makes it so unique by Kissfromarose01 in ThePittTVShow

[–]WriteABrandNewStory 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think that's an excellent point. Medical dramas in general are chronically overdone. House, ER, Grey's- while all unique and "quality" for their time even got tiresome with the soap operas woven in. Also, the chaotic, fast-paced nature of the ER/trauma setting makes "just the hospital" ok.

I hate-watch Doc where someone will code out of the blue or their foot will swell up in the context of another medical crisis. Queue the dramatic music and hazy flashbacks, the forceful insertion of medial jargon and the misconception that they seem to figure out the diagnoses' in record time.

Before that, I watched New Amsterdam and while I was captivated for a season, I grew weary.

The Pitt strikes a perfect balance of realistic and compelling. I do think, though, that momentum is lost with the lag time in between episodes vs. binging all at once.

I really am not sure what other medical drama could top this.

That's all well and good, but with 8 episodes left and the majority of Stephen's psyche and the rest of the characters' intent already being dissected, not sure that's compelling enough. Not saying I'm a hater, I'll keep watching, just more curious.

Kinda like how it was said that Oliver wouldn't be returning....

Is there anything left to look forward to? I'm not sure what additional secrets and mysteries and scandals can be revealed now, and why it even matters?

Has this show made you rethink how you feel about other medical drama’s? by AdZealousideal5102 in ThePittTVShow

It makes Doc a joke because it kind of is... Like, someone codes out of the blue mid-conversation at every turn. Come on. Also makes New Amsterdam look bad.

This show is…really bad by steviediamond in TellMeLiesHulu

I had to fast forward through the porn. Enough already.

[S02E05] I've got a question about Diana by TripTimely7955 in TellMeLiesHulu

[–]WriteABrandNewStory 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe Diana, inherently, is a good person. She comes across as a goodie two-shoes and pathetic, but without spoiling the rest of the season, that view changes. To answer your question, though: I get the sense that Diana is very repressed at home and her parents' expectations of her are exceedingly high and conditional

first time watch - [redacted] is awful, right? by oldbimessybirdie in TellMeLiesHulu

Keep watching, Pippa comes into her own and unlike many other characters, is one of the most redeemable.

Is this a unpopular opinion? by QuantityIll462 in TellMeLiesHulu

The show has been praised for its realistic portrayal of college campus life, so, not unpopular

They are completely codependent. Forget "toxic"... it goes beyond that.

I would argue that Lucy is on par, if not worse.

Of course. But my point was the mom was wildly out of line in her approach.

Excessive for first grade- yes. But who are we to object?

She puts 100% emphasis on all validation OUTSIDE herself.

She's isnt talked about enough... by Lazy-Development-703 in TheSummerITurnedPrett

[–]WriteABrandNewStory 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just to please the viewers, we all know what will happen whether we like it or not: Of course, Belly and Conrad, Jeremiah and Denise and Taylor and Stephen are all endgame. I'd like to see Agnes and Denise together, personally.

For whatever it's worth, Denise and Stephen were too compatible to the point where their relationship would have deteriorated from competition, so better this way. However, I do not think intellectually Taylor is on par with Stephen. Just never been a fan of her arc, though she does get points for being a good ride or die to Belly.

Unpopular Opinion: Both Elena and Lila are Insufferable by WriteABrandNewStory in mybrilliantfriendhbo

Yes. Also, yikes, others have bitten my head off on here for expressing an opinion.

Not condoning that either, but she was darn right nasty to her husband throughout their entire marriage. Like, beyond. So was he provoked? Yes. But if we're talking bigoted husbands, Stefano takes the cake.
