Warner Bros Discovery is making The Pitt available to the masses (or at least those who don’t want to pay for an extra subscription): Season one of the Noah Wyle drama is coming to TLC.
Warner Bros. Television Group CEO Channing Dungey made the announcement Wednesday at the WBD upfront Wednesday. The firs tseason will drop on the net ahead of its season two premiere on HBO Max..
Wyle appeared at the presentation Wednesday to introduce Dungey and to talk about the origins of his new drama from John Wells and R. Scott Gemmill.
“When we set out, our goal with The Pitt was to make a show that was not just about medical cases, but about the people behind them, the dedicated folks who sacrificed daily in service of others inside of a fraying system that currently feels like it’s teetering on the edge,” he told the advertising crowd. “The aim was to lead into those relatable life and death moments, the ones that make us root for everyone on the show, because they all feel like real people that we know and real crises with real needs and the outcome.”
“The outcome is what we always wish to happen with shows, but almost never does,” he continued. “To make something timely, something of the moment, something with real impact that reaches a lot of people and leaves a lasting impression. My inbox is proving to be a bit of a lightning rod as medical practitioners are reaching out to say that they feel seen, they feel heard, and that the storylines that we tell on the pit are very much hitting home. As an actor, writer, and executive producer on this series, I am quite proud of this outcome.”
Season 2 of The PItt is expected to bow sometime in 2026. It will focus on a 15-hour shift on the Fourth of July.
