The Pitt season 2 premiere date finally confirmed at HBO Max

It has been a long time running but today, the good news was finally revealed when it comes to The Pitt over on HBO Max. We have an official season 2 premiere date!

Well, first and foremost, let’s issue a reminder here that there have been reports out there indicating that January 8 as when the medical drama was going to be back. Yet, at the same time, it was never fully confirmed until today. The Noah Wyle series is once again going to tell a fifteen-episode story that is set in real time. On this particular instance, we are talking about a story set around a Fourth of July weekend. There will be a lot of familiar faces back, but also a few newcomers as well.

So why the ten-month jump? Well, a lot of it is tied to Dr. Langdon, who is coming back to the hospital after undergoing treatment. Speaking to Entertainment Weekly, here is some of what Patrick Ball had to say about the character:

“He’s been forced to grow up in a lot of ways over these last 10 months … He’s stepping back into this workplace of much trauma and much baggage. He’s having to look his mentor Robby in the eye after having said some pretty nasty things to him — out of desperation, I think — at the end of season 1.”

We do tend to think that we’re going to be seeing still some conflict here, but isn’t that inevitable? You have characters who have not been around each other for some time and it does feel like there is some conflict that could come from that — in addition, of course, to all of the natural problems that come with people working a grueling hospital shift.
