“The Pitt” is a popular hit, and its fandom on social media isn’t holding back from expressing strong feelings about this season’s direction as it winds down. All that attention puts the medical series in prime position for significant Emmy attention again this year.

Last year, the HBO Max medical drama made a big splash in its freshman season, earning 13 Emmy nominations, including outstanding drama series, lead actor for Noah Wyle, supporting actress for Katherine LaNasa, guest actor for Shawn Hatosy, directing for John Wells and Amanda Marsalis, writing for Joe Sachs and R. Scott Gemmill, and nods for sound editing and casting. It went on to win five, including the top series race.
