Season 2 of "The Pitt" drops this Thursday at 9 p.m., and our team has some ideas about what storylines should be included. (You can't set a show in Pittsburgh during the 4th of July without at least one medical emergency involving a furry!) The City Cast Pittsburgh team is sharing our predictions, plus discussing our favorite local homages and Easter eggs from the first season, debating the authenticity of charge nurse Dana's accent, and more.

Haven't watched the show yet? The first half of our episode is spoiler-free! And once you're finished bingeing, read up on a few things "The Pitt" gets wrong about PA's medical and privacy laws.

**This episode originally aired on April 24, 2025.
