Season 2

NBC's hit summer drama "The Night Shift" returns for season two. Life in the emergency room at San Antonio Memorial is never routine, and the men and women that make up the night shift team are a special breed. The new season finds the crew still recovering from a shocking hostage situation that left one of their colleagues dead. The experience brought them all a little closer but also exposed some personal weaknesses. Adrenaline junkie TC Callahan (Eoin Macken, "Merlin") is back at work after facing suspension. TC's best friend, Topher (Ken Leung, "Lost"), is also back at work and has recovered from the gunshot wound that nearly took his life. Drew (Brendan Fehr, "Roswell") was dealt some personal blows in the last year but is ready to embark on a new chapter in his life. Lead night shift physician Jordan Alexander (Jill Flint, "The Good Wife"), who is TC's ex-girlfriend, has given up the job of running the night shift for now and has some big decisions to make about her future. Paul (Robert Bailey Jr., "Coraline"), still fresh out of medical school, continues to adjust to the rigors of a real-life emergency room. Krista (Jeananne Goossen, "Alcatraz"), also a relatively new intern, has gained some confidence but is still finding her way, while Kenny (JR Lemon, "Tyler Perry's A Madea Christmas"), a seasoned nurse, keeps the doctors focused and isn't afraid to break a few rules to get the job done. The biggest news of all will come from night shift senior manager Michael Ragosa (Freddy Rodriguez, "Six Feet Under"). After facing a health scare last year, he is ready to make some big changes in his life that will affect everyone on the staff.
