Noah Wyle's new medical drama, "The Pitt," is a hit, but faces a lawsuit from the widow of "ER" creator Michael Crichton. Sherri Crichton alleges "The Pitt" is an unauthorized "ER" revival. Wyle denies this, stating they deliberately diverged creatively. Despite the legal battle, "The Pitt" has been renewed for a second season, and Wyle's performance is praised, influenced by his own experiences with the COVID-19 pandemic.
