The medical television shows that might just fill the Pitt-sized hole on your TV_  by [Annabel Gutterman](https://time.com/author/annabel-gutterman/)  ## Annabel Gutterman Senior Editor Apr 11, 2025 2:00 AM UTC  Noah Wyle as the exhausted and beloved Dr. Robby in 'The Pitt' Noah Wyle as the exhausted and beloved Dr. Robby in 'The Pitt'Warrick Page—MAX; Stephanie Keith—Netflix; Ron Batzdorff—NBC; Scott Garfield—Disney General Entertainment Content/Getty Images; Eric McCandless—Disney General Entertainment Content/Getty Images  by [Annabel Gutterman](https://time.com/author/annabel-gutterman/)  ## Annabel Gutterman Senior Editor Apr 11, 2025 2:00 AM UTC For the past four months, [_The Pitt_](https://time.com/7276040/the-pitt-nicholas-cozzi-essay/)has shown why medical television shows have an enduring appeal. Combine overworked and sometimes feuding doctors with patients arriving to a crowded emergency room on the worst day of their lives, and the stakes really couldn’t be higher. But with [_The Pitt_’s first season finale](https://time.com/7275535/the-pitt-finale-what-happened/), Noah Wyle’s exhausted and beloved Dr. Robby is finally done with his shift. He’s in dire need of some rest after navigating multiple devastating medical emergencies, including a mass casualty incident, an ongoing nursing shortage, and even rats roaming the halls of his ER. While Robby and the rest of the emergency room day shift team has certainly earned time off, that leaves the rest of us with a [_Pitt_\-sized hole](https://time.com/7274583/the-pitt-finale-review/) on our TVs (and in our hearts). Luckily, there’s plenty to keep us occupied before the show is back for a second season, which could be coming as soon as early next year and will take place over a July Fourth weekend. Below, we’ve broken down recommendations on what medical show to watch next, whether you’re in the mood for a more romantic doctor drama or are looking to laugh after sobbing through the last few episodes of _The Pitt_. ## **If you want more Noah Wyle**  Noah Wyle in 'ER' NBCU Photo Bank/Getty Images Go back to where it all began. Long before he was Dr. Robby, Wyle graced our television screens as medical student John Carter in _ER._ With 15 seasons, the medical drama from [Michael Crichton](https://time.com/6981428/eruption-michael-sherri-crichton-james-patterson/) built on the blueprint that _St. Elsewhere_ first established in the 1980s and features a starry cast including George Clooney and Julianna Margulies. The long-running series is set in a fictional Chicago hospital’s emergency room where doctors grapple with complex medical decisions and, at times, even more complicated personal crises. [Stream _ER_ on Max](https://www.max.com/shows/er/92d5fe53-2467-4030-8e81-9b3753afb64e) ## **If you want realistic medicine**  Dr. John Boockvar in 'Lenox Hill' Netflix If you’re impressed by the medical accuracy in _The Pitt_, check out [Netflix’s documentary series _Lenox Hill_](https://time.com/5846647/lenox-hill-netflix-review/). Released in 2020, the series follows four real-life doctors at the titular New York City hospital. _Lenox Hill_ offers an unflinching window into the world of medicine and is every bit as emotional as _The Pitt_ as the doctors reflect on life and death in real time. [Stream _Lenox Hill_ on Netflix](https://www.netflix.com/title/80201728) ## **If you want doctor romance**  Ellen Pompeo and Patrick Dempsey in 'Grey's Anatomy' Scott Garfield—Disney General Entertainment Content/Getty Images Are you also dying to know what exactly went down between _The Pitt_’s Dr. Collins and Dr. Robby? For more overt interpersonal drama, you should watch [_Grey’s Anatomy_](https://time.com/7024522/greys-anatomy-best-seasons/). Shonda Rhimes’ mega-popular series, which is the longest running medical drama ever, is packed to the brim with romance. With over 21 seasons to choose from, there’s plenty of longing, lust, and heartbreak from characters who are constantly falling in and out of love with each other. [Stream _Grey's Anatomy_ on Hulu](https://www.hulu.com/series/greys-anatomy-bfd6ba83-5fff-46f8-abae-76f1796c1c8e) ## **If you want workplace drama**  Kate Walsh in 'Private Practice' Eric McCandless—Disney General Entertainment Content/Getty Images A spin-off of [_Grey’s Anatomy_](https://time.com/6914179/how-greys-anatomy-characters-died-or-left/)_,_ ABC’s _Private Practice_ is centered on Addison Montgomery (Kate Walsh), who leaves Seattle for Los Angeles where she joins a team of doctors at her best friend’s private practice. Played by veteran actors like Audra McDonald, Taye Diggs, and Amy Brenneman, _Private Practice_’s team is always arguing with each other about their patients. The ethical lines are blurry and the decision-making is messy, but totally thrilling. Though _Grey’s_ is often the ABC medical drama associated with crazy twists and turns, _Private Practice_ also deserves some recognition. There may be no exploding ferry boats or bombs inside chest cavities in this show, but there is a terrifying sequence of a doctor whose baby is cut out of her by a mentally ill patient! [Stream _Private Practice_ on Hulu](https://www.hulu.com/series/private-practice-ef7ebcf8-5330-480b-8369-b82c2956280a) ## **If you want crazy patient cases**  Hugh Laurie in 'House' Greg Gayne—NBCU Photo Bank/Getty Images Though many of the patients’ diagnoses on _The Pitt_ are obvious, some were less so, like the influencer who ended up having mercury poisoning from a bad skincare product. If you’re captivated by these kinds of medical mysteries, it might be time to check out [_House_](https://time.com/archive/6674562/television-doctor-is-in-a-bad-mood/). The series stars Hugh Laurie as the titular doctor who leads a team of doctors focused on making difficult diagnoses. The cases are wild—as is the drama between the doctors. [Stream _House_ on Hulu](https://www.hulu.com/series/house-ef39603f-eb90-4248-8237-f6168d7c1be1) ## **If you want to laugh**  Daniele O'Loughlin, Josh Lawson, and Mekki Leeper in 'St. Denis Medical' Ron Batzdorff—NBC Many medical shows are weepy, but this 2024 Peacock series is certainly not. [_St. Denis Medical_](https://time.com/7172266/st-denis-medical-review/) is a mockumentary-style sitcom set in Oregon where a group of doctors and nurses are just trying to make it through the day unscathed. It’s a genuinely laugh-out-loud funny show about an underfunded hospital, which is being run by an executive director who shares Michael Scott’s overconfidence and lack of preparation for the job. Not only is it hilarious, but much like _The Pitt_, _St. Denis Medical_ is often also a searing indictment of the broken American healthcare system. [Stream _St. Denis Medical_ on Peacock](https://www.peacocktv.com/stream-tv/st-denis-medical) ## **If you just want to have fun!**  Sean Teale, Joshua Jackson, and Phillipa Soo in 'Doctor Odyssey' Tina Thorpe—Disney/Getty Images Take a vacation from the emotional wreckage of _The Pitt_ with ABC’s _Doctor Odyssey._ Starring Joshua Jackson as Dr. Max Bankman, Ryan Murphy’s latest foray into medical television takes place on a luxury cruise ship where there is no shortage of emergencies. This show is like _Grey’s Anatomy_ meets Bravo’s _Below Deck_: ridiculous, dramatic, and totally addicting. Plus, it features a roster of fun guest stars, played by many familiar faces like [Shania Twain](https://time.com/3897884/shania-twain-final-concert-tour-interview/), Amy Sedaris, [Rachel Dratch](https://time.com/7213878/rachel-dratch-snl-50th-anniversary/), and John Stamos.
