[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Spoiler - the miscarriage of Dr Collin’s was a little graphic. Did they need to show her underwear?[/quote]

I appreciated that scene. As someone who has experienced that moment, in the middle of a workday, the scene was so realistic. I had to go back and finish a meeting while I had just literally flushed my hopes and dreams down the toilet. I think it being graphic was necessary to accomplish the point as to what women carry and bear on behalf of us all. The feeling of dealing with the nausea and sickness for weeks, while keeping up your job, only to have your body turn on you in an instant - it’s gutting. I’m glad more people may grasp that now.

(Btw this is many years behind me and I have two great kids, don’t feel bad for me!)[/quote]

Same here - as someone who has experienced pregnancy loss, I really related to that scene and appreciated the accurate portrayal.[/quote]

Yes they could have done all of that without the miscarriage in the underwear though.  [/quote]

Yet you're not upset about the post-tonsillectomy bleed? the spurting arterial blood? I mean, by your logic, they could've simply done an interpretive dance about each medical malady and shown nothing graphic at all, yeah?*

You have issues with menstruation and miscarriage. Just say it. And then deal with it, because it's misogynist at its root. [/quote]
So much this. Maybe they can start a separate thread: The Pitt (racist, misogynistic commenter edition).

This episode hit so hard. Collins having to compartmentalize her loss and keep working. Ginger’s daughter coming back. The honor walk. The history of the lack of ambulances. I love how they’re weaving the history of the characters and the institution into the story. So much character development this week.

I just love Dr. King, she’s so pure. The actress is Bryan Cranston’s daughter.

What do we think of the trafficking storyline? Is it trafficking or something else?[/quote]

I think trafficking for sure. Initially, I thought baby farm because the madam is at least second trimester. [/quote]
