The Pitt: no rats this week. I am really liking the sister of the guy who got tased. The way she says “ok” every time she gets told something that she really wants to fight against but has to accept (at least for now) really conveys that she’s had to do that many times.
A ghost? What's the deal? Is every frat on this campus haunted? And if so, why do people keep coming to these parties, cause it's not the snacks.

KotSK is getting good, but I gotta say giving episode 4 the title Seven is confusing.

Our wings are not tired.
Agree, T. The actor is REALLY good. It would be easy to go over the top and obvious there, but she’s nailing it.

Yeah, it’s a very understated performance but I feel like I know exactly how she feels all the time.

No rats this week, just hot dogs.
I’m not even mad for Louie. Sad, but some nice storytelling

Can someone let me know in spoiler font if needed, more about this rat situation? I am feeling very skittish about them right now (nearby construction has caused chaos) and hoping to watch the rest of S1 soonish

I think it was just a couple of episodes in season 1? But I’d have to rewatch to be sure and I’m not up for that right now. Actually a nice moment for Whitaker involving them is mostly what I remember but there were some, like jump scares.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Full subplot as I recall it:
In an early episode, a homeless man comes in and inside his outerwear there are 3 rats, who get loose.
They show up a few other times, with various people freaking out about them.
Whitaker get ahold of one and snaps it's neck, farm kid that he is.
Toward the end of the season, there's an exploitative "journalist" who is raving about rats as he is handed off to night shift, who think he's hallucinating. This is the button on the plot.

They pay me in WOIMS
You missed the part where one of the patients shows up in the ER with a terrier! Who does the thing that terriers were bred for!

Oh, yeah!
Which reminds me that I saw where Alan Sepinwall wrote something about how much he loves Terriers that may get me to subscribe to his newsletter or whatever
