Last week’s episode of The Pitt ended with the horrifying news that there was an active shooter incident at PittFest and mass casualties were on the way to Pittsburgh Trauma Medical Hospital. That mean’s that this week’s all-new installment of the MAX hit, The Pitt Episode 12 “6 PM”, is going to get serious. Series star Supriya Ganesh even teased to DECIDER last week that what’s about to unfold is like a “horror film.” So buckle up, Pitt fans, because tonight’s new episode is going to be a lot.
The Pitt is MAX’s new medical drama set over the course of a single maddeningly long shift at the fictional PTMH. The department is headed by the noble Dr. Robby (Noah Wyle), a brilliant and empathetic doctor who also carries with him the emotional scars of trauma. It’s the five year anniversary of his own mentor’s death from COVID complications and now he has to navigate yet another day of horrors.
The Pitt has quickly become a favorite amongst MAX subscribers for its pulse-pounding drama, realistic medical procedures, and ensemble cast of endearing characters.
