The first season had a big plot point about how the COVID pandemic gave him PTSD, and this season he is imminently going on sabbatical. I think the show is asking us to draw conclusions.

The conclusion: he lives in PA and they don't have a helmet law

Noah Wyle in an interview notes that the audience was onto something re:helmets.

Living in PA, the "helmet law" as stupid as it is, is a point of pride which they may just be showing off in the show. I put this in the far too obvious to be a plot point, but we shall see!

My Dad was a physician in a state where they repealed the helmet law and he absolutely hated it. It being legal in a state doesn't change how doctors feel about helmets.

His replacement is such an annoying character. Not in a good way. I love Mel and the nurses.

Didn’t love Druggie Doctor burdening the patient with a confession about stealing the guy’s pain pills. Wtf?

Making amends is one of the steps. At least that's what I'm guessing.

No

Meaning in terms of being boring and annoying.

That actress, Sepideh Moafi, played the lead detective in the show Blackbird with Taron Egerton. She was awesome.

I don’t know how someone can call her boring or annoying from that first episode.

Did you watch the episode? The character was obviously meant to be annoying to Robby. It was obvious.

During Covid, Dr Robbie made the decision to pull his mentor off the ventilator and move it to a young kid. They both died.

Fun fact (I live in Pittsburgh). During the opening episode when Dr Robbie was riding his motorcycle to work, the background music was sung by a popular local band called The Clark’s.

A friend of mine was a neurosurgeon and he never wore a seatbelt.
Basically, said he doesn’t want his brains to have to be put back in his head if the wreck is that bad. 🤷‍♀️

I'm calling BS on this one. Wear a seatbelt so that they don't have to put in new teeth after a 20 MPH crash.

I prefer to wait for full seasons to be released anyway because I prefer binging to watching week to week.

I binged season 1 and I’m glad I did. It was so emotional going through it back to back that way.

Yes, I only found it after it had been fully released. I forgot that and watched the first episode, now sad that I have to wait to watch the others very slowly...

Wow, I can’t imagine a neurosurgeon being so colossally stupid.

Seatbelts seriously save lives, every single day. With the newer engineering of vehicles having crumple zones and airbag curtains around the passenger compartment, people are walking away from crashes that used to result in serious injury or death. But if you don’t buckle up none of that matters and you run a very high risk of being ejected from the vehicle by impact forces (basic physics) and having your brains splattered on the roadway or scrambled so badly inside your head that you’ll be a veggie if you survive.

A ton of resources $$$$ were wasted on this person to educate him into one of the most challenging and important specialties in medicine and he rolls the dice with his life every time he drives or rides in a vehicle???? That’s outrageous and makes me angry to hear.
