I’ll be the first to admit it, I love a workplace romance, and I love a ship. However, when it comes to Season 2 of The Pitt (which is currently airing weekly on the 2026 TV schedule), there’s one ship I simply cannot get on board with, and that’s Langdon (Patrick Ball) and Mel (Taylor Dearden).
If you are on PittTok or The Pitt Twitter, I’m sure you’ve seen the Mel and Langdon shippers. There are a lot of them, and they’re passionate. However, I am not one of them. In fact, I think the idea of these two characters pursuing a romantic relationship is a terrible idea, and I have multiple reasons why.
