One of the biggest new TV hits of 2025 was HBO Max’s The Pitt, an American medical drama. Given its central star, Noah Wyle, and its creator, R. Scott Gemmill, both having worked on Michael Crichton’s medical drama classic ER, the ER parallels were unmistakable. The show was praised for a great many things, including a focus on realism, its 24-esque real-time season formula, and for how it felt like a return to a TV-season model that many of us are nostalgic for. Only eight months after the final episode of season one aired, the second season debuted in January 2026. It was a quick turnaround for the show, which, as the second season was being rolled out, had awards from multiple ceremonies thrown its way. Although the second season took some bold swings concerning challenging our relationship with its central character, the second season was largely more of the same (albeit with new cases and storylines), and, in the case of a television show executed at this high a level, that was mostly a welcome sight. It wasn’t without some notable missteps, though, and some of these were directly tied to the nature of its formula.

Directed by Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett (Scream; Abigail) — Screenplay by Guy Busick and R. Christopher Murphy.

Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett’s Ready or Not 2: Here I Come kicks off right where the popular first film left off. Grace (played by Samara Weaving) has just survived a crazy ordeal moments after getting married. Her new family — the Le Domas’, who were secretly satanists — tried to kill her before sunrise, as they believed they would all die if they didn’t. Grace, now in a bloodied wedding dress, survived the night, while her in-laws and her new husband all exploded at dawn for not fulfilling their satanic bargain. But things aren’t over for our bloodsoaked heroine. When she meets up with her sister Faith (played by Kathryn Newton), with whom she hasn’t spoken in years, at a hospital, they’re both incapacitated and taken to the manor of a wealthy and influential family known as the Danforths. The Danforths are one of multiple families with a seat on a council of elite families, who all owe their successes to their supernatural satanic lord known as Le Bail. Because Grace survived the night, the families must compete in another game of diabolical hide-and-seek to determine who will have the ‘high seat’ on the council and, essentially, control the world. To survive, Grace, now alongside her sister, must again overcome the odds and hold out until dawn.
