July 23rd, 2007 | 2 Comments | Email | Share | TweetTV Guide is reporting that Ex-Dawson’s Creek actor Kerr Smith and Shark’s Bess Wohl are joining the cast of CSI: New York as recurring players this season. Smith, last seen in Fox’s short-lived Justice, will play Drew Becker, an expert in forged documents and a love interest for Stella (Melina Kanakaredes). “Well, he pretends to be an expert in forged documents,” clarifies executive producer Pam Veasey. “He has a mysterious background that we are slowly developing. He’s a love interest who has an ulterior motive.” Meanwhile, Wohl, who, in addition to a two-episode stint on Shark has guest-starred on Cold Case and Ghost Whisperer, will play a new lab tech and a good friend of Adam’s (AJ Buckley).

Good news about Bess. She’s a terrific actress–was great on Shark, so I’m glad to be able to see her more often. She can play vulnerable and smart and funny–should be a good move for CSI.
You’re right about Wohl – additionally she can do sexy, very sexy – the temperature’s going to rise in New York!
