HBO Max announced today that The Pitt is back in production. But that is not all. The streamer also revealed in a video on social media which staff are back on duty.
The doctors and nurses who are reporting back to work at Pittsburgh Trauma Medical Hospital staff are: Dr. Michael Robinavitch (Noah Wyle), Dr. Baran Al-Hashimi (Sepideh Moafi), Nurse Leadder Dana Evans (Katherine LaNasa), Dr. Parker Ellis (Ayesha Harris), Dr. Cassie McKay (Fiona Dourif), Dr. Frank Langdon (Patrick Ball), Dr. Melissa King (Taylor Deardon), Dr. Trinity Santos (Isa Briones), Dr. Dennis Whitaker (Gerran Howell) and Dr. Victoria Javadi (Shabana Azeez), and Dr. Jack Abbot (Shawn Hatosy).
Am I the only one who is upset that James Ogilvie (Lucas Iverson) is not on that list? He was rightfully the most hated character of season 2, and that is why I want him back. However, I am not sure if I want his story to be one of redemption. I want it to be one where he is still just as arrogant and still making mistakes. Let’s be real. There are way too many doctors out there like that.
Yesterday was the season 2 finale of The Pitt, and the best scene came after the credits.
What happened? After a 15-hour shift, Mel (Taylor Dearden) and Santos (Taylor Dearden) went out drinking and practiced scream therapy while singing Alanis Morissette’s You Outta Know at Karaoke.
It was so nice to see the two doctors let loose after the shift they had, especially poor Mel. She had a really shitty day.
The good news is that Emmy-winning Hacks will be back for its fifth season on April 9th. The bad news is that it will be the show’s final on HBO.
In the aftermath of mistaken and unflattering news reports that she passed away, Deborah Vance (Jean Smart) and Ava (Hannah Einbinder) return to Las Vegas more determined than ever to secure Deborah’s legacy as a comedian.
Will they do it? We will find out during the show’s final 10 episodes. They will air one a week, but on April 30th and May 7th, we will get two episodes. The series finale will premiere on May 27th.
Josh Johnson has taken The Daily Show by storm with his witty humor, and HBO noticed that. Thus, they are giving him a comedy special this spring.
The comedian said in a statement, “I’m excited to have my breakout piece be with a company that nurtures vision like HBO does. I’m grateful to them, and you, for watching.”
Josh Johnson: Symphony will feature original material that explores topics such as family, religion, and relationships through his unique perspective and signature creativity.
If you follow him on social media, as I do, then you would know he is hilarious. So, I can’t wait to see this special. If you don’t follow him, you are missing out on laughing.
The Comeback comes back almost every ten years since 2005. However, this decade’s revival is said to be Valerie Cherish’s (Lisa Kudrow) last. And today, we got a first from the third season, the trailer.
Since HBO didn’t say what we can expect from this, we are just left to guess from the trailer. It looks like Cherish is returning to acting, which is why the cameras are following her around this time. And it appears to be that her dream show will be a nightmare. Let’s hope we don’t have to say the same about The Comeback.
The cast includes: Dan Bucatinsky, Laura Silverman, Damian Young, Tim Bagley, Matt Cook, Jack O’Brien, Ella Stiller, John Early, Barry Shabaka Henley, Abbi Jacobson, Tony Macht, Brittany O’Grady, Zane Phillips, Julian Stern, and Andrew Scott.
The Mockumentary debuts on May 22nd, and new episodes will drop every week until the season finale on May 10th.
