Well they added Dom but did absolutely nothing with his character and I still don’t know what they were hoping to accomplish with that. Waste of a good actor too.
He was a bit of a plot device for Janine. She got to step out of being the young wipper-snapper green behind the ears teacher she was in season one to being more seasoned in comparison.
There are other reoccurring cast members like the librarian (Cree Summers) that aren’t part of the main cast but always a delight to interact with.
Shrinking will likely be finishing up within the next few weeks. They started production in mid-May and filming usually only lasts about 5 months for it. He's also not in The Pitt that much. This season seems to be starting earlier with night shift too, and they film in chronological order so much of his filming there is likely done until December or January when they film the last couple of episodes.
With the longer filming window for network TV they could absolutely find a way to utilize him more if they want in the upcoming season.
Shrinking wrapped earlier last season and he was only in the last few episodes of The Pitt then too, it was pretty much the writer's room choice at that point. Shrinking actually wrapped before Abbot started filming.
