A popular character from season four of 24 is joining Fox’s new thriller The Mob Doctor.
Shohreh Aghdashloo — who played Dina Araz on 24 before going on to star in other TV series like ER, FlashForward and House M.D. — will recur as Dr. Jayana Baylor in the new drama that bows Sept. 17. She’ll debut during the fourth week of the show that stars Jordana Spiro as a young surgeon working to pay off her debt to the Chicago Mob.
Here is Aghdashloo’s official character description: “A legendary cardiothoracic specialist, Dr. Baylor returns from an Oxford sabbatical to Roosevelt Medical Center in order to perform a groundbreaking cardiac autotransplantation. Coming up through a chauvinistic hospital system, Dr. Baylor has learned to walk quietly but carry a big stick. Beautiful and sharp-witted, Baylor is a passionate surgeon who’s allergic to BS. To the novice, this refusal to suffer fools can appear hard-hearted, but to the people who know her, she simply wants to put fairness and her patients first.”

Hopefully this means she'll be making more appearances on Craigy Ferg. I love when they flirt with each other. And last time she winked at Goffrey! And hopefully this means she'll be playing Coin in The Hunger Games tbh.

Glad you used the gif from her episode of SVU - she was fierce as hell on that show.
And I still can't muster the interest to actually watch it. Mostly for the bland lead but also for the crappy premise. Sigh.
omg manny has to live on boardwalk empire though...I'm so worried!
And OMG tell me about it. But then I guess we were lucky he actually survived the previous season, lol. I'll be worried he'll die every time he appears now. Sigh. Scheduling could still allow him to appear etc but idk, writing-wise Manny is probably not long for this world.
