Emmy-Winning 'The Pitt' Still Lacks UK Release as Max Targets 2026 Launch

Sky says Max will arrive in the UK in early 2026, leaving the hit medical drama without a confirmed British home for now.

Overview

  • The Pitt has won multiple Emmy awards, including best drama and best actor for Noah Wyle, after a widely praised first season on Max in the US.
  • Max is not currently available in the UK, and Sky has stated the ad-supported version of the service will be bundled for customers when it launches in early 2026.
  • No UK broadcaster has announced a release plan, despite some Max and HBO titles historically appearing on Sky Atlantic and Now.
  • The first season unfolds across 15 hour-long episodes covering a single emergency-room shift and has drawn strong reviews and high audience scores.
  • Coverage cites roughly 10 million global viewers and Rotten Tomatoes ratings in the mid-to-high 90s, and the series has been renewed for a second season due in January 2026.
