The Success of ‘The Pitt’ Has Led to More End of Life Planning and Organ Donation

One season in, The Pitt has been a sensation. Awards, critical acclaim, and a devoted viewership, to call the show a hit is an understatement. However, it seems like not only is it popular, it’s also had a positive impact in the actual medical world. How many television programs can say that? Find out more details about its impact below.

According to Variety, a new study by the USC Norman Lear Center has just been released that documents how more people are having end of life discussions and signing up for organ donations, with The Pitt and viewings of the show being a reason why. Of course, these things are far more important than a TV drama, but if it’s having this sort of impact, then it’s doing something that few shows can proclaim. It’s actually doing a small part to make the world a better place, and that’s wonderful.
