Noah Wyle says The Pitt Season 3 likely won’t be set on a holiday

Collider reports Noah Wyle, the star of medical drama The Pitt, said Season 3 will "probably not" take place on a major holiday and suggested the show may use a shorter time jump than Season 2’s roughly 10-month leap.

HBO quietly renewed The Pitt for Season 3 two nights before the Season 2 premiere, after some speculation about the series’ future following Netflix’s takeover of Warner Bros. Wyle made his remarks during an interview at the DGA theater complex in Los Angeles; show creator R. Scott Gemmill teased Halloween, but Wyle downplayed that idea with a joking reference to a Krampus costume.

HBO did not release plot details with the renewal, so Wyle’s comments are the main hint about Season 3’s direction. Season 2 opened with a jump to Fourth of July weekend and centers on Dr. Robbie’s last day before leaving for a personal journey and handing control to Dr. Baram Al-Hashimi, with a mysterious baby left in the hospital waiting room introduced in Episode 1.
