Noah Wyle is back in the white lab coat, this time playing Dr. Robby in The Pitt. This feels like a natural continuation of his 1994 breakthrough.

Noah Wyle is "not sorry" about playing a new doctor on The Pitt instead of reprising his role as John Carter in a now-scrapped ER revival. After The Pitt premiered on Thursday 9, Wyle, 53, was asked about how plans to bring back ER ultimately turned into an entirely new show instead.

Possibly the best way to have watched The Traitors premiere. Noah Wyle is back in the ER, thank God! It’s 2024 and I’m still talking about the Chicago movie. The Real Housepresidents of the Funeral. Smiling during a hard time.

A medical drama going for bracing realism is anchored by a strong central performance from a veteran TV doctor.
