The article reports on the return of the medical series "The Pitt" and its second season, which depicts another 15-hour shift in the emergency room of a fictional hospital in Pittsburgh.[1] Each series covers one day in a busy emergency room, and each episode corresponds to one hour of that shift.[1] The series is praised for its realistic depiction of the work of doctors in an era of political polarization, mistrust of institutions and the corporatization of healthcare.[1] The opening scenes of the new series feature a crowded waiting room, a warning against aggressive behavior, a memorial plaque to victims of a mass shooting, and a patient with bags full of supplements and alternative medicine.[1] "The Pitt" also highlights the administrative burden and bureaucracy that complicate the delivery of quality care.[1] In the second series, topics such as medical bills and patients obtaining information from social networks appear.[1] The article recalls that in recent years, physical and verbal violence against health workers has been increasing, which is also reflected in the series and is related to the psychological burden of care providers.[1]
