Lights, Camera, Perfection: The Genius of THE PITT

It's been almost a year since I last wrote a movie review, and understandably so. No one wrote a manual for juggling being a Business Analyst; 9-5, going to the gym at least twice a week, studying, trying to have a social life and doing a bunch of other stuff, but hey, a mans gotta do what a mans gotta do. This is not to say of course I've not being seeing any show, as a matter of fact, it has been one of my favourite ways to relax, along with going to the gym, playing football and playing video games. Anyways, I've seen a number of movies/TV shows lately, and hopefully I'm able to write and recommend to you guys. You guys should trust my candor, and taste by now, lol.

The show is basically a medical procedural drama TV series that follows emergency department staff as they attempt to survive a fifteen hour shift with all the struggles that comes with. Staff shortage, endless patients, a mass shooting, etc. Each episode of the season covers approximately one hour of the work shift, which makes it as realistic as it gets.

This is arguably one of the best TV series I've watched in my entire life. Those are huge claims, but for good reasons. Everything about this show was near perfection. Humane, compassionate, real, emotional, intense, hard-hitting, etc. those are just a few ways to describe this master piece. Imagine a show so good, the whole fifteen episodes, each an hour long, was set in one place; the ER. Usually, the first thing you'd think when this pops up on your list is, to think it's like the rest. I mean, we've seen a lot of great medical procedural drama series in the past, what could make this one so special? Well, only watching this would answer that. I couldn't afford to stop viewing any of the episodes, and when I had to get some snooze, I was thinking of seeing the next episode. Yeah, it was that engrossing. The show was intense, making you try to keep up with the actions and different new events. The acting was genuine and really original, with great cut scenes, that weren't medically related. My best part was that it made me see medical practitioners and health care workers for who they truly are, super heroes. While battling typical bureaucratic nonsense, they continue to deliver and give their one hundred percent. What a gem of a show.

I look at this movie and I think, there isn't any single thing I could possibly point out as a negative. Of course there are a few things that could have been done better, like the hospital administrator coming to complain almost every hour (yeah, I didn't like Gloria too), but you could argue that since it's a straight fifteen hour movie/shift, and it only had to happen to add that bit of drama, but regardless, it was a tad annoying.

STREAM. I don't think there has been a more obvious choice. It has everything. Drama, emotion, strategy, humanity, brilliance in acting, amazing storytelling, plot twist, etc. everything. Fifteen hours of pure delight. Riveting and engrossing are two perfect adjective to describe this one. A ten out of ten for me for Max's special.
