There wasn't much to get excited about when Grey's Anatomy introduced their spinoff show, Private Practice. It was disjointed and you didn't have a chance to figure out if the new show was just not too good or whether the format chosen to premiere this new show, was just an extremely bad ratings driven idea. Going from Seattle to L.A. and back to Seattle and back to L.A., few fell in love with the new show even if they found a few characters with potential. That said, one of the best parts f Private Practice was the potential affair between the recently divorced Merrin Dungey character and the twenty-something Chris Lowell character. They gave us a preview of what was to come between the two and very few were disappointed with the possible affair that was to come.
Since Merrin Dungey's character was recast, my hopes for this storyline were dashed. Although Audra McDonald, Merrin's replacement, is a fabulous actress, her Tony Awards speak for themselves, but I have to say, I cannot picture her having an affair with a 25-year old receptionist/surfer.
Hopefully watching Tim Daly and Taye Diggs will make me forget all of that. I'm thinking it will.
