"Private Practice" Another Fall TV Future Failure

If you're a fan of Grey's Anatomy you are aware of the fact that Addison has left Seattle Grace and gone off to work elsewhere. This elsewhere is in the land of spin offs in a new series called Private Practice and is set in Los Angeles. This is on the Wednesday night line up against a lot of other new series at 9 p.m.No more McDreamy, no more McSteamy and no more Seattle Grace.

Kate Walsh, Addison , is now working with old friends from medical school. They include her "best friend" Naomi married to Sam Bennet both doctors in this medical practice consisting of regular and alternative medicine. The cast includes Tim Daly, Addison's next love interest. A Pediatrician Paul Adelstein, Amy Brenneman, a psychiatrist and Taye Diggs . The pediatrician, Dr. Cooper Friedman surfs the internet for dates. The psychiatrist is fresh off a break up, Naomi and Sam Bennet are recently divorced. Daly practices acupuncture.

Daly and Walsh have already been smooching, very unprofessional.

As usual, everyone is extremely attractive. No ugly people work in hospitals when Hollywood has a say in casting. Have you looked around your local hospital lately? It doesn't look like Rodeo Drive. What would be wrong or less interesting about having ordinary people, people with some character, ordinary everyday people cast in these parts? I would definitely find that more interesting.

This new series also offers a new Addison, she is no longer a strong, brilliant gynecologist she is now a wimpy, simpy, flirty, prancing gal who acts like a silly teen ager. Not very attractive as a role model and not very realistic. Realism has basically disappeared from many of these series. Women are bionic (Bionic Woman), people die and are alive again in Pushing Daisies and anything and everything goes on in a hospital scenario (House) and now this series.
