It's a prescription for professional rivalry when Grey's Anatomy introduces a trio of new doctors during its sixth season.
Nora Zehetner and Robert Baker have been cast as two of the recurring residents surfacing in Episode 5, TVGuideMagazine.com has learned exclusively. Zehetner (familiar to TV fans from her runs on HEROES and Everwood) will play a doc described by a source as "feisty, very smart and competitive." As such, she is poised to butt heads with at least one member of Meredith Grey's posse. Baker, from The CW's short-lived Valentine, has been cast as the seemingly nicest of the new residents, who may be hiding a nastier side.
The casting of these recurring players comes as Grey's prepares to bid adieu to T.R. Knight's George (in the two-hour season opener) and accomodate Ellen Pompeo's maternity leave. But the precise why of the docs' arrival is the big mystery here—and one that series boss Shonda Rhimes isn't willing to reveal.
Scrubbing in alongside Zehetner and Baker will be Jesse Williams, playing a charismatic caregiver. Williams' credits include The N's Beyond the Break and the upcoming Joss Whedon thriller "The Cabin in the Woods."
