Errr … lawsuits are the pits! Noah Wyle addressed Sherri Crichton’s lawsuit against his new show The Pitt for the first time in a Variety interview. “The only thing that I can legally speak to is how I feel emotionally, which is just profoundly sad and disappointed,” he said. “This taints the legacy, and it shouldn’t have.” Crichton, the widow of ER creator Michael Crichton, was previously working with Wyle and the creators of The Pitt on a reboot of ER that eventually fell apart.
