What did you think of Private Practice?

I love the character of Addison, but I'm not sure I love the show.  Part of why I liked Grey's so much was because it was different from other shows.  I feel like this show isn't that ground breaking.  I will watch it again to see what I think, but I'm definitely not loving it as much as I loved Grey's after the first episode.

Ugh. I almost hated it. I'm walking the line on whether I will watch again. I feel like it's a recycling of Grey's with just a different slant on the storyline. Plus she went there for a "change" and still ends up in a hospital setting (at least for part of the episode)?! Annoying. Right now I'd rather have Kate Walsh back on the Grey's set. I think she added so much to it!

Hmm, I was a bit underwhelmed. It didn't seem to have the spark it had when they first introduced it on Grey's. I am going to watch a few more episodes and then decided whether or not I will keep watching. I'm inclined to keep watching it because Dell (Chris Lowell) is so hot. biggrin

I liked it back when they played it with Grey's last season, but last night it was not good. My first problem was Kate Walsh has been buggin me lately in her news, then they played far too many commercials like it was the only new show coming out on ABC, then lastly they changed Naomi. I really liked the other actor for that role. I will not be watching it again.

It was just kind of "meh" for me. I didn't hate it like I thought I would, but it wasn't very good. I think I'm done. Part of me would like to give it another shot, but I don't think I really feel like wasting my time. hmm.gif

So that's it! I was watching last night and I kept thinking that Naomi looked so different, but I thought it was just me. I liked the old Naomi better too.  I didn't really think the show was all that great. Why mess with Grey's by taking out one of their best characters? She seems so out of place on this show.

Hmmm, I actually did like it... a lot more than Grey's tonight. Addison was always my favorite character and since I'm interested in neonatal this show was pretty interesting. And maybe I'm just crazy and really emotional but I cried like twice through out the show 
On the other hand, I watched Grey's Anatomy and I'll give it another try but I think I'm ready to retire the Grey's Anatomy obession. It's def. not the same.

I like Addison (and I should note that I was never really into Grey's).  That said, what I really like is recognizing scenes shot near my house.  No matter how long I live in LA, I love seeing things I recognize on TV!

I was underwhelmed too. I love Addison but the rest of the show is not that interesting. And what's wrong with all the other doctors in her office? Every single one has that "my personal life is a mess" thing -- it's tiring.

I'll only watch it on commercials of Gossip Girl (OMG- greatest show evah!). None of the GA's spark between the character's is there on PP. It's just actors saying their lines.

And please! The hot sufer dude is an aspiring midwife? What the f? And Addison questioning whether or not midwifery is a real word? Holy hell. Maybe I'm just too invested in midwifery or something, but seriously? Yes, you fuc*ers, it's a word. I just really think they are denigrating the whole entire midwifery movement and making a big joke about it. It's pretty offensive, actually.

I hated it. The dialogue was grating, the plots were completely contrived. The whole part about the sperm was so stupid, but the woman in the store and how that doc handled it was even worse.

I agree that it's completely devoid of the spark that made/makes Grey's so good.
