An appeals court ruled that “The Pitt” is similar enough to “ER” to allow Michael Crichton’s widow to pursue a lawsuit over the Emmy-winning show. The appeals court did dismiss a claim against key creators of the show — Noah Wyle, John Wells and R. Scott Gemmill — finding no evidence that they were aware they could be violating Crichton’s contractual rights. “There are clear and numerous similarities between ‘The Pitt’ and ‘ER,” the court ruled, citing the emergency room setting, the fast pace, the medical jargon, the graphic depictions of injuries, and a young, incompetent doctor fresh from medical school. “We find the details here suffice for a prima facie case.” variety.com/2026/tv/news/the…

The lawsuit isn’t based solely on similarities between the shows. The Pitt emerged after negotiations for an ER revival fell apart, which would have seen Noah Wyle reprise his role as Dr. John Carter. au.variety.com/2025/tv/featur…

you haven't known pain until the showrunner to get back at the actress had to make an evil entity possess her body and have her sleep with his son whom she helped raise and then killed her off
"are they lovers?" worse. they were supposed to be but never got the chance.

Anyone who says s1-4of #ChicagoPD are not superior can't be trusted with anything. Just ignore anything they say and laugh at them.

Only 10 original One Chicago stars remain on Chicago Fire, Med, and PD, and that number might drop to single digits this fall.

please, get comfortable with going to events, movies, concerts, bookstores, and museums by yourself so you don't miss out on life waiting on people.

Feeling like #ChicagoPD needs to get their act together, stop playing a game of musical chairs with characters, flesh out important storylines that get a blip of screen time, show respect to beloved characters by better writing, and stop bringing back hated past characters.
It's been a week, how we feeling #OneChicago
