All of this over a prank call directed towards someone that definitely needs to wake up to the real world?

re: “The Pitt” New hospital drama on Max.

IMO this show is top tier and definitely worth a watch. From what I’ve read it’s also pretty accurate with the medical terms and procedures.

Nothing more than a put on show so he wouldn’t get called out by other sports personalities after all of this, the same goes for a lot of other people in that world.

The romantic angle happened earlier than I figured it would, which might not be good for her. Everything around Ray turns to shite. I also think people that are watching figured Ving Rhames character would play a bigger role in the series, which it did with this
episode. IMO, Apple TV has a good track record of putting out quality programming, for whatever reason Apple doesn’t promote it for the most part.

I didn’t see the end of episode 5 coming but knew what was about to go down right before it happened, if that makes any sense. Still a good bit to wrap up in 4 episodes.

That’s what I got from the 3rd episode and especially in the last episode with the parents mentioning him doing his own thing on the computer in his room. The parents thinking everything is fine, all the while he’s being molded by social media and the internet culture.

I dip close to a can of RedSeal just about everyday and tried to switch to Zyn last year and couldn’t even finish a can because of nausea. Just a couple minutes after I’d put one in the nausea and sweating would start.

Posted by gizmothepug on 3/25/25 at 10:59 am

Amazon Prime, Netflix, Hulu, Peacock, Disney+, Apple TV, MAX, Paramount+. We don’t have cable or satellite. Amazon, Disney+, and Max are paid yearly subscriptions for us. All of that is still cheaper than what we were paying DirectTV every month.
