"Private Practice" Special Episode

GREY'S ANATOMY/PRIVATE PRACTICE 4xS "Come Rain Or Come Shine" (Special Episode)

ABC has been padding their schedule with recap episodes and specials lately, and for shows like this, and Lost, where you're going to be lost if you missed a few shows, I think they're generally a good idea.

This episode serves as an introduction/refresher to Addison, the character being spun off from "Grey's" into "Private Practice" a show that I've decided to watch, even though I've never seen "Grey's" (The slight 'Veronica Mars' connection put over the edge).

The hour is basically a clip show framed with interviews of TV reviewers. If I knew this stuff I'd never watch this, but I'm actually glad to see it. It's alleviated some of my concern of being lost watching the spin off. I also have the backdoor pilot from "Grey's" last year downloaded and ready to watch sometime before next week (You know the one that everyone was appaled by and that got recast) I'll have a review of that on one of our days with no shows to talk about.

For "Grey's" fans = *
For the curious = ***
