and I think I know why the Hollywood Suite channels are on free preview, they're going through a name change the 70's channel is now 70's+ and the 80's and 90's are one channel and the other two are just 00 and '10 (well it was bound to happen eventually)

About halfway through watching The Pitt with my wife. She watches almost exclusively reality TV these days, but I convinced her to give this one a shot with me since she was a big ER fan back in the day (or maybe just a Noah Wylie fan...). Anyways, we are really enjoying it. Good cast, good drama, some hilarious moments. Fun TV.

Ya we just got through that a couple weeks ago. I've seen stuff online calling it the most realistic medical show of all time. It was solid if unspectacular.

I would say all of the medical stuff seems realistic to me, but the scenarios and situations definitely feel made for TV. At least when packed into a single day.

Beloved Hudson & Rex returns for Season 8 with Luke Roberts (Game of Thrones, Ransom) officially joining the cast as Detective Mark. Production for Season 8 is currently underway in St. John’s, Newfoundland and will premiere this fall.

*grits teeth* I'm in more denial over Charlie being dead on Hudson and Rex being dead than I am over Bobby being dead on 911

It really feels like it's just a matter of time until we're back where we were with cable, having all the "networks" (streamers) under one roof with one payment for all of them....

The humor is the same which is great.   Hank giving the guy 4 stars is classic Hank.

The animation looks really stiff and cheap.

yeah well season 1 didn't really look good either. Like it looked more like Beavis and Butthead (which makes sense same creator and they were coming off the end of that) probably using a different animation studio or something like that

for those that don't want to click the link......Drew Carey and Aisha Tyler together at last (yeah I know Ken Jennings and Matt Damon are the most random pairing ever)....oh wait I keep forgetting "Apologies to Matt Damon" and sometimes I forget that Kimmel and Silverman were a couple at one point

Network tv must be desperate to recapture some old glory from 20 years ago.   I'll be surprised if this lasts more then 1 season.
