quarterly reminder that if i reblog something ai-generated it is 110% and always an accident and for the love of god please tell me so i can delete it from my blog
leopards got filling. it’s cheetah 2.0. Cheetah on meth. look at that leopard shit.
then there’s jaguar. Jaguar is madness. it took leopard print & decided wait. what if–MAW DOTS. it’s just leopard print with dots in the middle, it’s chaos
look at this bullshit
i’m angry just looking at it
so in ascending order: Cheetah < Leopard < Jaguar
C.L.J. someone come up with weird mnemonic for that, i’ve done enough work for you greedy bastards
I would also like to make the very important and seldom repeated point that even if you remove Israel’s actions as a country from the equation, they still shouldn’t be in the competition because their behavior as a competitor has been outside the lines of stated rules and regulations. They have broken multiple rules as a competitor. Their conduct as a Eurovision competitor should be enough to get them banned, even if you don’t agree they should be removed for “political” reasons.
Last updated: April 16, 2026. This timeline of The Pitt will be updated with new information as people will hopefully correct me and add to this! Notes explaining general calculations (confirming season 1 is set in 2025, the birth year of characters, the general timeline I used for medical school to emergency medicine residency) are beneath the cut.
Date - Event
1948 - Montgomery Adamson is born (S1E01, plaque on memorial wall).
1982/1983* - Cassie McKay is born (S1E01, “42-year-old R2”).
1985/1986 - Baran Al-Hashimi is born (S2E14, “40-year-old”)
1992/1993 - Dana Evans begins working at the Emergency Department at Pittsburgh Trauma Medical Center (PTMC) (S1E08, “32 years”).
September 1995 to July 1996 - Samira Mohan is born (on Twitter, Supriya Ganesh says the writers and her decided Mohan is 29 in season 1 [link]; in a panel interview Ganesh says “[Mohan is] 30 in season 2” [link]).
October/November 1998 - Trinity Santos is born (S1E06, she tells Yolanda Garcia her star sign is Scorpio; the first draft of the script for the first episode [link] says she is 26. Assuming that her starting age is 26 and that season 1 is set in September, her birthday hasn't passed yet, and she would be born in 1998).
July 7th, 2005 - Victoria Javadi is born (S1E01, “I’m 20”; S2E01, “Your birthday is next Tuesday?”, the Tuesday after July 4th)
By August 2005 - Michael Robinavitch completed his residency program at Big Charity Hospital in New Orleans, Louisiana (S1E09). While the timeline between then and his arrival at PTMC is unclear, the hospital closed following Hurricane Katrina in August 2005. Therefore, Robinavitch would have left the hospital in 2005 at the latest.
2007/2008 - Jake Malloy, Robinavitch’s stepson, is born (S1E05, “I’m 17”).
2008/2009 - Mohan’s dad dies when she is 13 (S1E05).
September 2013 to July 2014 - Harrison Ashcroft, McKay’s son, is born (S1E02, “he’s 11 now”; S2E05, “my son’s 12”).
March/April 2016 - McKay gets sober (S1E05, “9 years, 5 months, and 11 days”).
2018 - Javadi attends college and later medical school at the University of Pittsburgh (S1E10, “go to college at 13”).
May 12, 2020 - Al-Hashimi was working at Médecins Sans Frontières's (MSF) maternity wing in the Dasht-e-Barchi hospital when a mass shooting occurred and 24 people were killed (S2E07).
Before September 2020 - In a flashback set in 2020 when Adamson’s health was declining because of COVID-19, Mohan is pictured in a photo at his bedside (S1E07, Robinavitch and Perlah Alawi are also pictured). This may be an error in using a picture of the cast, but if accurate, this implies Mohan attended medical school in Pittsburgh. At the latest that this photo could have been taken (at PTMC in early 2020), Mohan would have been in her first year of medical school.
September 2020 - Adamson dies during the COVID-19 pandemic after 17 days on ECMO.
September 2020 to July 2021 - Tanner Langdon, Frank Langdon’s son, is born (S1E02, “four-year-old”; S2E04, “Tanner’s five now”).
July 2021 - John Shen begins his first year of the emergency medicine residency program at PTMC** (S1E12, “still a resident three months ago”).
July 2022 - Heather Collins, Langdon, and Parker Ellis begin their first year of residency.
2022/2023 - Penny Langdon, Langdon’s daughter, is born (S2E04, “Penny’s three”).
July 2023 - Mohan and Crus Henderson begin their first year of residency.
July 2024 - McKay and Melissa King begin their first year of residency.
July 2025 - Shen becomes an attending physician in emergency medicine. Collins, Langdon, and Ellis begin their fourth year of residency. Mohan and Henderson begin their third year of residency. McKay and King begin their second year of residency. Santos begins her first year of residency.
August 2025 - Dennis Whitaker does an internal medicine rotation in PTMC (S1E15). He is in his fourth year of medical school. Javadi is in her third year of medical school at the University of Pittsburgh*** (S1E01).
September 2025 - This is when season 1 takes place (S1E06, Shelby Adamson’s thank you note says “five short years ago” was Adamson’s death, which occurred in 2020). After two months at a Veterans Affairs hospital, King begins her residency at PTMC and is in her second year (S1E01). Santos begins her intern year at PTMC (S1E01).
December 31st, 2025 - Langdon gets sober (S2E15, “I’ve been sober 186 days”).
July 2026 - Season 2 is set on Saturday, July 4th, 2026, ten months after season 1. Al-Hashimi arrives at PTMC to cover for Robinavitch for his impending 3-month sabbatical. Collins take an attending physician position closer to Portland, Oregon. Ellis begins her unspecified emergency medicine fellowship. Langdon begins his fourth year of residency again. Mohan and Henderson begin their fourth year of residency. McKay and King begin their third year of residency. Santos begins her second year of residency. Whitaker and Nazely Toomarian become doctors and begin their first/intern year of residency. Javadi and James Ogilvie are in their fourth year of medical school. Joy Kwon is in her third year of medical school.
November 2026 - Season 3 is set in November 2026, four months after the events of season 2.
Season 1 takes place over the course of fifteen hours of the same day. It occurs on an odd day (S1E02), a Friday (S1E15), and in September (S1E12, break room calendar; season 2 is set 10 months ahead in July). I think this places the date of season 1 as September 5th or September 19th. For the purposes of this timeline, season one is treated as occurring in September 2025.
It is made explicitly clear that season 2 is set on July 4th, 2026, so season 1 is definitively set in 2025. But before season 2 aired, season 1 had evidence for its 2025 setting:
On YouTube, there is a trailer titled “The Pitt | Official Trailer | Max” (link) with a deleted scene where Collins says to Robby that Adamson’s death was “five years ago today”. We know the death occurred in 2020, so that makes it 2025.
In episode 6, when Shelby Adamson, Adamson’s sister, sends a thank you note to the ER staff, her letter also says it has been five years. A transcription of the note: “To the ER Staff of PTMC, As my brother would have done, I think of you all today. Sending this as a token of thanks for all that you do and all that you did for Monty, five short years ago. With love, Shelby Adamson”
Then, we have that patient in episode 10 who gets hit in the eye playing baseball. He says he is 16 and he was born on December 7th, 2008. This would only make it 2024 if it were December, but it is not.
Finally, Noah Wyle said at the FYC panel after season 1 that season 2 is intended to be set on the Fourth of July weekend, on the 250th anniversary of the US, which makes it July 2026.
*When given the age of a character, I give two possible years the character was born to accommodate for the fact that their birthday may not have passed yet. So, for example, Cassie McKay says she is 42. If we treat season one as being set in September 2025, she is at the latest born in September 1983 if her birthday just passed and she just turned 42. However, it may be the case that her birthday has not passed in the calendar year yet (like Santos, who is a Scorpio and therefore has a birthday sometime in late October to mid-November). This means she can at the earliest be born in September 1982 (say, late September), and turn 43 shortly after the events of season one. I use similar logic for events that happen at a certain age (e.g., Mohan’s dad’s death when she was 13 - she could have just turned 13 or turned 14 later that year).
**Here is the general information that I used to make the timeline for medical training. (Information concerning the American medical school system is compiled from cursory Google searches and browsing sources such as the National Resident Matching Program [NRMP] and Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education [ACGME]. Please be advised that there may be errors and variations may exist. I am not in the medical field, so do correct me!) Following the completion of medical school, new doctors generally begin their residency programs on July 1. The emergency medicine residency program at Pittsburgh Medical Trauma Center is a four-year program (S1E04): R1 (interns), R2, R3, and R4. I am assuming all of the attendings and residents who we know did/are doing their residencies at PTMC immediately matched after four years of medical school and began their residencies in the emergency department in the July following graduation unless otherwise stated.
***In real life, I only found one medical school in Pittsburgh (the other school in the area confers D.O.), the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine (Javadi says she attends Pitt in S1E10). Whitaker may also attend Pitt, or there may be an unnamed fictional medical school in Pittsburgh he attended. Another possibility is that he was completing away rotations and attended a medical school outside of Pittsburgh, like Ogilvie who attends UCLA’s medical school.
