DOA On TV 4/19/26 The Rookie, Will Trent, High Potential, The Pitt

 

The Rookie  Survive the Streets

I don’t mind “documentary” type episodes where everyone is interviewed about an event.  This one however meandered far too much, and felt as if there was no real substance to the events.

 

Will Trent  The Blank Expanse of Nothing

Will’s attempt to put a tracker on Adelaide to save his uncle results in the death of Amanda, stabbed and left for dead on the street to find.  This one makes me so angry.  I love her character so much and every scene she is in.  To kill her off that way!  This isn’t the finale, and there’s no excuse for her “shocking death”.

 

High Potential  Family Tree

In the second season finale, a dead body in a hotel unravels things for Karadec and Lucia.  Wagner opts to meet a source alone to find out more about Roman’s disappearance.  He tricks Morgan into coming to the rendezvous at a little later time than the actual meeting, and she finds him on a park bench bleeding out and barely able to breathe. 

 

The Pitt 9 pm

In the second season finale for The Pitt, Robby manages to get in a few words with most of the staff who he should say goodbye to.  The episode ends completely up in the air as far as I’m concerned, with him soothing Baby Jane Doe, and himself.

One of the people he has a word with is Dr Hashimi who has revealed her seizures to him.  He’s completely angry with her for not revealing that to her employers, and tells her she shouldn’t be working in the ER or driving.  It’s a shouting match that ends well for no one.  At the end of the episode, though, she defiantly gets in her car after work to drive home.  She goes a few feet then breaks down crying.  There were two people walking in the parking ramp, and I thought man, she’s going to black out and hit those two.  I’ve watched a few interviews with the actress, though, and it was the thought of picking up her son and driving with him in her current state and the danger of that, that made her stop.

For Robbie, I hope he goes on his sabbatical, but is careful, so he can come back and be in a better state.  Better yet, I want him to adopt Baby Jane Doe, and take the time off to get settled in to being that dad he had always wished to be.  They should let me write this stuff.
