The Real Housewives of New Jersey's Jacqueline Laurita and Teresa Giudice will pay Michelle Trachtenberg's character, "Chloe," a surprise visit Wednesday night on the NBC television show "Mercy."
They delight in the fact that they grabbed authentic housewives to be in the show, saying that if they needed "real housewife" characters in the cast of "Mercy," they'd better be using the real thing!
Mercy airs Wednesday, 8/7c, on NBC
About "Mercy" from the official NBC website:
From creator/executive producer Liz Heldens (NBC's "Friday Night Lights"), executive producers Gretchen Berg & Aaron Harberts ("Pushing Daisies") and Gail Berman and Lloyd Braun comes "Mercy," a new medical drama about the lives of the people who work at Mercy Hospital seen through the eyes of those who know it best -- its nurses.
Nurse Veronica Flanagan Callahan (Taylor Schilling "Dark Matter") has just returned to Mercy Hospital from a tour in Iraq and knows more about medicine than all of the residents combined. Together with fellow nurses Sonia Jimenez (Jaime Lee Kirchner, "Rescue Me"), who turns the heads of everyone in the hospital and Chloe Payne (Michelle Trachtenberg, "Gossip Girl"), a naïve newcomer who learns to deal with the difficulties of working in a challenging and sometimes unsettling profession, they navigate the daily traumas and social landmines of life and love both inside the hospital and out in the real world.
The cast also includes James Tupper ("Men in Trees") as Dr. Chris Sands, a new doctor at the hospital who complicates Veronica's life, Diego Klattenhoff ("Supernatural") as Mike Callahan, Veronica's estranged husband, Guillermo Diaz ("Weeds") as Nurse Angel Lopez and James Le Gros as Dr. Harris ("Ally McBeal").

Comments
that Teresa character is a thug! I saw her at a fashion show last week and she got in some poor girl's face (what looked like ready to attack)because she thought the girl was someone else who is suing her and her husband for fraud and because Teresa's bankruptcy was the talk of the night. Then she went on to physically attack Danielle (RHONJ). The whole time Teresa just laughed. Wasn't embarrased or sorry. She is banned from that location. Isn't she the mother of 4 girls. I guess where she comes from it's normal to act like a classless bully???!!!
