TV Streaming series to talk about.

Been watching a series called “Bookish” on PBS and although it’s makes English a foreign language the closed caption helped. It’s a detective series post WW2 but it’s been really interesting and somewhat current.

Really good episode last night. Glad to have it back.

I recently finished season 1 of The Pitt. Never having watched ER or any medical procedural drama, it made for an interesting watch. I can be a little squeamish on some of these types of things, but only in one scene out of the 15 hour season did they give me too much.

Quite a shift they had on that particular day.

I love the Pitt. Season two has started.

I was never really into the medical dramas, but this is good.

My daughter is a nurse and she says they are very accurate. I've also read that the producers want to be a accurate as possible.

Yes, a variety of people (many in the medical profession) have noted that The Pitt has been really the first truthful depiction of what an emergency room in America is really like. When you move out and up a level, it is also realistic about the problems with American medicine and all the related social disparities that are bound up in this. I was frustrated though that it won Best Drama over Severance, which I think is a far more sophisticated, philosophical and original creation for television.

I was doubting why we needed a season 2 of The Pitt, but so far I like it.

If they can maintain this level of entertainment and writing, I hope we get a few more seasons.

I like the realism and the realism in regard to our broken medical system. This is the only medium to reach some who don't think about the broken system and the need for change and reform.
