Scott Wolf Plays Doctor when The Night Shift Checks In for Its Third Season


The Night Shift checks in for its third season tonight with an action-packed episode, where the team becomes immersed in a life-and-death rescue of a woman gravely injured in a car accident, and doctors TC Callahan (Eoin Macken), Scott Clemmens (Scott Wolf) and Topher Zia (Ken Leung) deal with the situation at San Antonio Memorial Hospital.

“There have been so many hospital shows in the history of television, but many of them, I feel, try and protect the audience from the harsh realities of what’s going on in these ER’s and these ORs,” says Wolf, who previously played a homeopathic doctor on Everwood, and a surgeon on the short-lived The Nine.

“[Our producers] really wanted to confront the audience and show them a little bit of what things really look like. So when we make an incision, where other shows might cut to one of our pretty faces, this show puts a camera right in the open chest cavity and shows the surgical procedure we’re doing. So the commitment to the honesty of the medicine that we’re practicing is pretty cool dramatically.”
