As soon as I read that Janina Gavankar would be joining
the cast of Grey's Anatomy this fall, I had to do it. I just had
to hope that the salacious Seattle Grace staff would take her in under their
wing, and she'd end up in an elevator with Sara Ramirez
(sorry, Dr. Hahn).
Gavankar did
her best as Papi on The L Word, but the part of a tipped-hat wearing
Latina Shane didn't sit well with the show's fans, and she was ousted. However,
this may be to the betterment of Grey's, one can only hope.
Ganvakar will
play an intern, and we all know what happens to interns — they become part of
the drama, and eventually, part of the staff. But producers haven't gotten that
far just yet, as her role and longevity on the show have yet to be decided.
Please, for
the love of the Goddess, Shonda: do not give her a
hat!
