Ranking My Favorite Characters From The Pitt Based On Our Dating Compatibility

Ranking My Favorite Characters From The Pitt Based On Our Dating Compatibility

Dennis Whitaker
Our relationship would be built on mutual trust, bad luck bitching, deep respect, and nerdy information exchange. There would be absolutely no sex whatsoever. 0/10, no first date.

Trinity Santos
Trinity is every guy I’ve ever had a crush on - preternaturally talented, overconfident, emotionally unavailable. If she were a guy I would have to fight my natural instincts every day to not be toxically obsessed with her but since she’s a woman I can just ignore it. —First Date Only—

Jack Abbott
All my friends would be insanely jealous of me and Dr. Daddy but we would just end up talking about life in the 70s and I wouldn’t be interested in his war stories. 1/10

Cassie McKay
I would do my best with Cassie but I would always end up feeling not quite good enough for her. I couldn’t break up with her though because that would only be causing her more pain. The eventual dissolution of relationship would just cause extra mess and stress in her life. I would really love her and end up feeling like an asshole. 2/10

Michael Robinavitch
If we’re including ER canon as backstory (and I’ve only watched two seasons) Carter is the character I would have watched for every week because of my massive, massive crush. Instead, I watched the show as an adult and my eyes glaze over with rage every time he dismisses a patient to try to climb the surgeon ladder. Dr. Robby would never do this. But Dr. Robby is also going through a midlife crisis a la Dr. Greene and can’t be depended on for groceries. He's a nice Jewish boy and I should probably marry him just for that but I won't. Dr. Robby, I love you, but I need more support. 3/10

Baran Al-Hashimi
At the first sign of her relying on AI or trying to manage my life I would dump her. 3/10

Dana Evans
I would shower Dana with love, praise, and affection, demonstrating my unwavering support with every chance I get. She would not be able to tolerate me. 4/10

Princess Dela Cruz
Princess would be a great date and partner but she’d get bored of me and my weird TV habits really quickly. 5/10, fun while it lasts

Donnie Donahue
Donnie is super chill and I’d love hanging out with him but sometimes he is TOO chill and I think it would drive me crazy. I need at least one weirdo interest to get me going. 6/10

Frank Langdon
If we ignore him being married (and who in this fandom doesn’t) then he looks like a grown up Shawn Hunter and I am a sucker for an emotionally complicated trashfire of a man I can ‘fix’. 7/10

Samira Mohan
I would do everything in the whole damn world to make this work. I would kill people and watch Samira’s face recoil in horror while I scream, “this is for us, baby!!!” to make this work. Samira, please call me back, I promise I won’t make it weird this time. 8/10

Melissa King
My best friend??? I’m dating my best friend in the whole world??? 9/10


A/N: Over on my instagram I shared some highlights from February and all the March movies I have planned this month. I'm also hoping to get a Friday post out soon about what I've been watching recently.
