SOW:
NIGHT SHIFT PREVIEW
GH favorites and some new starts check into GH:Night Shift when the series debuts on Soapnet July 12.
"It's a little bit of ER, a little bit of Grey's Anatomy, a little bit of GH, and a little bit of House," muses EP Jill Farren Phelps of the one hour original drama, which is set to run for 13 episodes. "Hopfully, it's a little bit of everything that everyone likes."

The spin-off's premiere episode will introduce viewers "to most of the characters that are going to be in the series, including Billy Dee Williams' Toussaint," explains JFP. "He is a worker in the hospital with a haunted past. There's a mystery about him."

Familiar cast members from GH, like Kimberly McCullough and Jason Thompson, will also be at the heart of the action. "It's Saturday night in the ER," teases JFP. "It is the the dramas that impact the doctors and the nurses and the people who work and live on the Night Shift, and it takes place only at the hospital."

Despite the sterile setting, there will still be love in the air. "There are a lot of beds in hospitals," winks JFP. "There's a shower. We have all kinds of places where romance and the like can occur."

One thing that won't occur is continuity between the drama on GH by day and NS by night. "Viewers totally are going to have to suspend belief," concedes JFP. "In fact, one character will be sporting a fairly humorous wound in NS that he will not be dealing with on GH. I haven't quite figured out how we can put that across to our audience, because it's conceivable that GH may precede NS (on the SN schedule), and we dont want to confuse them. But the reality is, this is a separate entity. It's the same characters, but they're in different situations." (source)
SID:
Rick Springfield is getting a summer story - or so Guza hopes. And he really wants Robert and Anna to join him. "We're going to see a little story for Noah that very much involves R/P... and it may, *may*, involve the parents of Robin and Patrick. Noah's story will directly impact Scrubs, but they are trying to decide whether to include Robert and Anna in this as well. It's all about timing and schedules.

Noah will have a secret life that nobody knows about. It will be very fun. Guza's wanted to do it since Noah returned to PC. It may be put on hold if all the actors can't schedule the right times to be there. At press time, a GH press rep confirmed Finola for part of the summer, but no Tristan as of yet

Minae Kim's blog*: As for my secret on Night Shift, unfortunately I cannot say!!! But, I can say that things are not as they appear. I find that even though many of us are so different as people...when we really look deep within, we are not so separate. That in the root of it all, we all have similar broken hearts, insecurities and pains. We just choose different actions to fix, cover and protect ourselves. Night Shift really delves deeper into the hearts and insecurities of the characters. Kinda cool. smile.gif.....Hi! Soapnet will be having a party in June where we will celebrate Night Shift! laugh.gif Should be tons of fun. As for how many episodes I'll be in, not sure yet. I will keep you posted. But so far, we shot 4 episodes and I've been in those four. smile.gif It's been a blast!!! (read the rest here)

Emily explains to him how his niceness can be considered flirting(hurtful). Their night out at Jake's is on June 11th. (source)
