It's official: there's a new crop of interns [2] on Grey's Anatomy [3]. While Grey-Sloan Memorial Hospital's fresh faces are (more or less) fresh additions to the TV world, one of the six newbies actually has a pretty extensive résumé. As you might recall, the end of the most recent episode features a particularly charged run-in between DeLuca (Giacomo Gianniotti) and a member of the new intern squad named Sam. The character is played by Jeanine Mason, and while she hasn't necessarily been cast in a lead role, she's acted in quite a few TV series.

Mason actually got her star in reality TV; she won the fifth season of So You Think You Can Dance [4] on Fox! From there, she launched her acting career with a series of roles, including a part on CSI. In 2013, Mason appeared on Bunheads for seven episodes as Cozette.

Since 2013, Mason has appeared on a wide variety of different shows including You're the Worst, NCIS: Los Angeles, The Secret Life of the American Teenager, and ABC's Of Kings and Prophets. Considering how Grey's Anatomy [6] is setting up some kind of drama with DeLuca (and potentially thwarting that "DeMelia" romance that seemed to be brewing [7]), this could be her biggest role to date.

And here's a fun fact that ties this whole situation together: Debbie Allen, an executive producer on Grey's Anatomy who also plays Catherine Avery, has actually been a guest judge on So You Think You Can Dance quite a few times! How's that for a full circle moment? Here's hoping the next episode of the show (which also marks an unbelievable 300 for the show) will give us a little more about this DeLuca situation . . . and will somehow involve Catherine Avery. Just for old time's sake.
