Hey DeAnn - you've obviously never grieved anyone the way Violet is grieving. to call her annoying, whiny, and a LOSER when she is so very clearly struggling with her grief over Pete's death is YOU being totally clueless.

I thought the Addison and Jake scene was great. Really liked the way he just held her hand, instead of kissing her. It made the scene more touching and sincere, Imo.
Also like that they allowed Addison to mourn Mark.

My favorite parts of the episode were Charlotte and Cooper. They are the ones I look forward to the most every week. Violet annoyed me a little with her going against Sheldon's advice. He was right and I hated how she let her own issues blend with the patient's issue. The scenes with Lucas broke my heart. That poor child. Nice to see Amelia looking out for Violet though and I didn't catch onto the tea offerings until I watched the episode a second time.
Jake does come off as somewhat perfect. I'd like to see a flaw or two. As for Sam and nurse Stephanie, I might be the only one who doesn't see the chemistry there.

Once again this episode was just ok. Being #TeamAddiSam I find her relationship with Jake very stiff, lacking in passion and real friendship while I find Sam's relationship with the Bailey like nurse very contrived and mildly annoying. I've gone back to liking Violet and feel her pain over loosing Pete + having to keep explaining it to Lucas. Thank goodness for CharCoop & Violet+Lucas who were the highlight of this average episode. #sigh

Im so glad there's no VAS this week!! Violet have always been my favorite and comming here and read constant bshing about her was very annoying. I even had my own Cristina annoyance scale last season LOL. JK.
Anyways, I loved everything about this episode...it was very touching and heartbreaking...specially when Violet told Lucas that daddy was in heaven with Mufasa!! it broke my heart in a million pieces!! I'm 22 I haven't got over Mufasa's death and now Pete is dead too and Im just rambling here...soo this comment is over!!
Great review!

I am not buying PP Season 6! I was always so anxious and excited each week to see the next episode, not happening for me so far this season. Although I am and will always be an AddiSam fan, if she is going to be with fake Jake, then I want her to be the bad ass Addison that she is. She has everything she ever wanted supposedly but she is kind of pathetic! Cooper and Charlotte rock! Violet has stepped up her game and I see the awesome Amelia coming back! And what is this random relationship that Sam has with the nurse? Heck, he and Dr. Vanessa were hot together, bring her back she already knows his story. I guess we now have a storyline for Sheldon.
I am a fan. I own the DVD collection for all 5 seasons! Not going to buy this one though!

Those episodes has been so good. I can't say one thing bad about it. Really it is so great to see Private Practice in all this glory!

I usually find scenes with Violet barely tolerable, but this week I just wanted her GONE for good..she can't even handle a toddler's questions about his dead father! What a loser! UGH! My VAS for this ep was a solid 10!
That said, Cooper and Charlotte saved the episode for me, as I love watching them interact. Charlotte is just the best, and she manages to keep Cooper from acting like too much of a happy puppy by being more mature than he is. I adore Jake, and I feel like Addy doesn't deserve him, he's just such a great guy. I am worried about Sheldon dying of prostate cancer, and I hope he deals with that soon.

Dear Reviewer ARE YOU KIDDING ME? No VAS when Violet was at her most ANNOYING these past two weeks? I am so disappointed! I felt that Violet was whiny,mean, annoying, immature and acted in a manner unworthy of a professional psychiatrist in this episode. She purposely went against what Sheldon told her to do by finding out if her patient really did kill someone, and then she did exactly what Sheldon said she'd do, she treated her patient horribly when she is hardly one to throw stones, as she is living in a glass house by being so unable to get past Pete's death. She is such a LOSER. I can't imagine why the other doctors care about her. She acts on her emotions, she doesn't behave like a mature professional and she seems to think that sleeping around somehow makes her sexy. It doesn't. She looks old, haggard and her hair is always a mess (why can't the makeup and hair people for the show do something with her unruly mop so it doesn't look like a crows nest?) Ugh. I usually find scenes

@Christina, Thank you, yes I just typed that name in and yes it is Joshua Bitton. I thought for sure it was one of the Savage's..he sure sounds like one of them :)

@Denise - I was thinking he looked a bit like Fred Savage, too. However, I looked it up and found out Adam was actually played by Joshua Bitton.
@Crystal - The final song was the Cary Brothers' cover of Duran Duran's "Ordinary World".

Who played Adam (the one that shot some guy), Violet's patient? I'm think Ben or Fred Savage..anyone know?

Being a Grey's fan, I used to watch PP just because of Addison but seriously this season Private Practice has stepped up! I loved loved loved this episode! The last scene was heart breaking with Violet talking about Lucas accepting the fact his father would never comeback. Needless to say, cast is doing amazing, hope they use Amelia in a better way through the season.

I think everyone is being too hard on Sam. The theme of the show was the stages of grief. Sam lost Addison, and passing the responsibilities of the relationship on to Jake was part of his acceptance. It is true that his words could have be put more delicately, but the fact that he tried to encourage Addison to talk to Jake shows it was more about letting Addison and Jake move forward than about his being "a pompous jerk" as Jarrod put it.

... not be dating Addison, but Mark was both of their friends. He would understand it and he should have been there for her as a friend. I didn't think he could become anymore of a pompous jerk.

I found this to be the best episode of season 6 so far.
I'm actually enjoying the path of Violet right now. I found her to be a real page turner in season 5 and I've only found her much more enjoyable without Pete.
As for Addison, it really did bother me how she thought Jake would turn her. Why she viewed him as a guy that would cut around just says to me that she really doesn't know him at all if he stuck his head out for her all of last season.
As for Cooper, I'm glad he finally gave it to Charlotte. It's about time he made her realize that she is pregnant with 3 babies and though she doesn't want them, they're coming in 5-6 months.
Sheldon having cancer would be sad, but it'd bring something to the table for his character, but I can't see them wrapping it up in 10 episodes. I'm going to hate it too as it'll bring more sadness to Amelia's character. She really doesn't deserve this.
In regards to Sam, I was really furious when he said "it's not my job anymore". Honestly, he may

Someone needed to tell Addie ages ago to stop beating herself up and labelling herself as a cheater. I'm glad Jake did.
Sam? Oh, but it's always been a "job" to him when it comes to Addie, hasn't it? He did redeem himself a little though, when he told Addie she should stop doing the things that screwed up her past relationships and make this one work.
I just want Addie to finally be happy.

Is it me or The Violet Character is getting worst and worst? I know is not real but what I like about Rhonda is that she always puts character that people can relate but Violet is just not that Character. I'm sorry I didn't like her scenes at all specially when he is talking to the patient other than that it was a good episode...

They didn't portray him as a saint. He didn't know how to talk to Addison at first. He also got frustrated and raised his voice.
Addison: Then slowly, over time, everything changes. And you're no longer this young thing, and you don't believe in fairytales and "perfect" isn't in your v...
