The Pitt is being called the best TV series of the year , and as a result audiences looking for their next weekly watch are keen to tune in. Set in a Pittsburgh Hospital, the medical drama follows the daily lives and work of staff in real-time over the course of 15 hours. Their personal turmoil and resilience in the face of the pressures of treating critically ill patients as quickly as possible serves as the emotional backbone of the series, which stars ER's Noah Wyle as Dr Michael Robinavitch.
It has already garnered 10 million viewers on its US streaming home, Max , and has received huge critical acclaim for being "the finest example of the genre". So for those in the UK who are waiting to learn when and where The Pitt will be available to watch for them, here is everything that we know so far. When is The Pitt coming to the UK? A UK release date has not yet been confirmed for The Pitt, but the series finished airing in the US since 10 April and thus will likely have an international release soon.
The Pitt joins a long line of established US primetime TV that tends to be released in the UK after they're brought to their conclusion stateside. The Pitt is likely to receive similar treatment, though it is unclear exactly how long UK viewers will have to wait until they have the opportunity to watch the series. Where will The Pitt be available to watch in the UK? The Pitt is available on Max in the US, which means that it is likely to be available to watch on Sky and NOW as the two services have an ongoing partnership deal.
HBO and Max shows like The Penguin, The White Lotus and The Last of Us have all been Sky exclusives, so it is reasonable to assume that The Pitt would follow suit and come to Sky in future. The good news is that The Pitt has already been renewed for a second season thanks to its staggering success in the US, with Warner Bros TV CEO Channing Dungey saying of the future of the show: "One of the reasons that we wanted to have an early renewal is because we want to keep it on an annual cadence. "That’s the other part of this broadcast-style model.
You fall in love with these [streaming] shows, you see eight episodes, and then you have to wait 18 months for there to be more. The whole promise of The Pitt was that we would be on an annual cadence, and we’re going to be able to make that happen.".
