Private Practice 2011 Promo: A Cure at Any Cost
Private Practice returns Thursday, January 6 after Grey's Anatomy, and Addison's mother Bizzy finds herself at the center of a major story arc to begin this new year.
In "If You Don't Know Me By Now," Bizzy pleads with Addy to do what it takes to save her partner from dying - even if that means working with Dr. Rodriguez again.
Meanwhile, Amelia and Pete's efforts are complicated when a patient's wife and his mistress disagree on the course of treatment, and C-squared tries to be intimate again.
Here's a promo for the show's 2011 return ...
The following week's episode, "Heaven Can Wait," features Addison planning Bizzy and Susan's wedding while again trying to keep her distance from Dr. Rodriquez.
Sam is concerned about the care a longtime patient is receiving, Sheldon refers Charlotte to a mentor and friend for help, and Violet considers publishing a book.
Sounds like quite a lot on the doctors' plates.
What are you most looking forward to seeing in the new year? Does the presence of Dr. R. mean trouble on the horizon for Sam and Addison? Comment below!

Charlotte: I am shocked by just how much I genuinely love him. I want to take the pain away, and I know I can't and it just kills me.

I've never liked Bizzy. But I can't wait for this storyline. I hope Addison stands up to her soon.
I am a little worried about Dr. Rodriguez. I think he'll cause problems between Addie and Sam...

I really think Dr. Rodriguez is just there for the Bizzy/Susan story. There'll probably be a little flirting here and there between him and Addison but she'll set him straight again that she's with Sam. Her and Sam are in too good of a place right now for someone like Dr. Rodriguez to mess things up. And I think he's just there as eye candy. Haha.
