THE PITT Season 2 Trailer: Robby Clocks in for a New Shift of Heart-Pounding Trauma on the 4th of July — GeekTyrant
The footage opens with Robby clocking in for another day in the ER, greeted by a nurse's dry jab: 'The prodigal son returns.' Dana (Katherine LaNasa), who spent much of last season contemplating whether to leave the job behind, gives him a look that says more than words.
Season 2 sets its drama against a Fourth of July backdrop. It's also the first day back for Dr. Langdon, who returns from an inpatient rehab program after Robby forced him to confront his addiction in Season 1.
The cast this season also includes Fiona Dourif, Taylor Dearden, Isa Briones, Gerran Howell, Shabana Azeez, and Sepideh Moafi. Beyond starring, Wyle is also stepping behind the camera to direct an episode.
Speaking at the Televerse TV festival, he explained, 'I feel prepped, which is what you want to feel. This has been such an amazing experience for me, all the way down the line.' Wyle previously directed episodes of Leverage: Redemption , The Librarians , and Falling Skies .
One of the most compelling aspects of The Pitt has been its ability to stay tethered to real world healthcare challenges, and Season 2 is doubling down on that authenticity. Wyle explained the process:
'Before we even start to write, we're conducting interviews with all sorts of people from every sector and vector of healthcare, and they tell us what they're up against.
'They tell us what they would love to see on TV, and they tell us what would really be counterproductive to what they're trying to do if we put it on TV. We dictate our storylines from there; it starts with people that are in the field and asking them to see what they're seeing and how they're reacting to it.'
The showrunners are also contending with the unpredictability of real-world healthcare changes. Wyle added, 'It's a little bit more difficult to see 10 months in the future than it was last year, because events are changing so quickly on the ground right now, you don't really know what the world's gonna look like in 12 months, but there are worst-case scenario models.'
Between Robby's reluctant heroics, Langdon's battle with redemption, and the unpredictable grind of the trauma ward , The Pitt Season 2 looks ready to deliver another sharp, relentless run of episodes.

‘Twelfth Night' Review: Lupita Nyong'o in Illyria
New York theater audiences tend to play it exceedingly cool when the famous arrive to catch a show. A global movie star can walk in without causing a discernible ripple. But there are celebrities and then there are celebrities. Minutes before a preview performance of 'Twelfth Night' at the freshly renovated, newly back-in-business Delacorte Theater in Central Park last week, a delighted murmur fluttered through the crowd. One of the theater's storied resident raccoons was strolling nimbly along the top of the house-right wall. Sometimes summer glamour comes draped in fur. Other times it's wrapped in a citrus-orange life jacket. That is how we first glimpse Viola, the resourceful romantic hero of 'Twelfth Night,' which opened on Thursday evening in an energizingly comic production whose casting with so many boldface names veritably screams, 'Shakespeare in the Park is back, baby.' Played by Lupita Nyong'o, Viola sits aboard a rubber life raft in the opening scene. She has been rescued by a sea captain from a shipwreck in which she believes her twin brother died. We feel her defenselessness as she self-soothes, crossing her bare arms and giving herself gentle little pats. Yet even in her shock, she retains her luminosity. Arriving a bit early, though, isn't she? Doesn't Shakespeare begin 'Twelfth Night' — which is, after all, a festive confection — with the infatuated Duke Orsino uttering the famous line, 'If music be the food of love, play on'? Saheem Ali's production hasn't cut it, but merely decided that Orsino can wait. By flipping the first two scenes, and giving Viola the play's final line, Ali has recentered a character who has been known to get lost in the overstuffedness of this comedy. And by having her speak initially in Swahili — 'Je, hii ni nchi gani, bwana?,' or 'What country is this, sir?,' she asks the captain — Ali establishes her firmly as a person arriving, in unaccustomedly desperate straits, on the shore of a foreign land, Illyria.
