  1. Private Practice at first glance looks like it's about to die. But by the end of its premiere tonight it has miraculously come back to life, apparently without even the aid of a tall, handsome, mysterious script doctor.

    ABC's eagerly awaited spinoff of "Grey's Anatomy" initially qualifies as a disappointment -- hitting completely familiar medical-drama beats while pursuing a whimsical tone it never fully achieves.

    This lightweight medical drama still needs serious script surgery.

    A huge disappointment. The large following of Grey's Anatomy might want to skip this spin-off. The writing is weak and Kate Walsh and her supporting cast doesn't seem to mend with the script and the lame writing. This more "hip and modern" medical drama doesn't seem to have the intensity or any sort of factor to hold the viewers in because the premise of this show lacks all aspects of a good drama. My advice, is stick to Grey's Expand
