My favorite scrunchie-wearing, doe-eyed nurse, Zoey Barkow, recently chatted with E! in an interview with Kristin Dos Santos. To be more specific, actress Merritt Wever–who plays the innocent nurse on the critically-acclaimed Showtime series starring Edie Falco, Nurse Jackie–did the talking.
Weaver was hesitant to speculate on details of her character’s life outside All Saints Hospital, but did hazard to say, “I think she lives with her mother, I think she commutes to work, and I have a feeling she doesn’t live in Manhattan.”
As for how Zoey might react to finding out Jackie’s secret addiction, Wever says, “I think she would get all of the pamphlets and literature she could possibly find on drug addiction, and Zoey would annoy Jackie sober. And I say annoy lovingly.”
In case you’re not watching Nurse Jackie, you should be. It’s good for your health. The season-one finale of Nurse Jackie airs Monday, Aug. 24, at 10:30 p.m. on Showtime.
