    Still, I loved that Addison got her happily ever after, and that yummy Taye Diggs finally settled down with Naomi! I also felt the best scene of the night was Sheldons speech to Miranda about caring for her as she died. THAT is true love, when you are willing to help someone pass from this earth, ease their pain and love them to the last breath. I had also hoped for at least an engagement between Amelia and her hot ER Doc...they are perfect together, and I was hoping to see that they would marry and get pregnant and Amelia would have a healthy, whole child with this kind man (who is also scorchingly hot, not that I noticed)

    I loved the series finale, but now that I read about the cut scenes where we could have seen all the kids together in Pete's office, I am kinda bummed and unsatisfied. I would have loved to have seen the kids all together like that, and I would have loved to have seen Cooper and Charlotte in the hotel room getting rest and enjoying movies and such together, because after my son was born, when we brought him home, I asked my husband to buy me a night in a hotel downtown, far away from where we lived, so that I could have one night of sleep, all the way through, and a whole day to just sit and read and relax, without the interruption of our baby. It was a huge relief and I can only imagine how much of a relief it must have been for Cooper and Charlotte to get away from feeding and changing three crying babies! Whew! I found one baby difficult, I can't imagine three! Still, I loved that Addison got her happily ever after, and that yummy Taye Diggs finally settled down with Naomi! I also f

    @Betty Draper – Thanks for letting us know about the cut scenes. I definitely would have liked to see more of CharCoop and the scene with Pete’s office.
    @Sa’ad702 – That makes complete sense!
    @Jarrod Mitchell – I, too, thought we’d see all of the kids back one last time. They could have at least just made a quick appearance at either one of the weddings.
    @Kathy – I love your take on Violet’s thoughts of Pete.

    I also was very happy with the show's finale; however it would have been nice if they had allowed 2 hours to wrap it up then more of the cut scenes could have been included. As far as no mention of Pete, I kind of felt that after Violet said goodbye to Holly and sent her off to start her new life, she (Violet) looked toward the heaven and to me she was saying to Pete that she too was ready to move on and begin a new life. Just my thought.

    A fitting ending to a fine series. Everything wrapped up nicely, and I'll miss them, and wish them luck, both on and off screen...

    I have to say the nurses get treated pretty badly in Shonda Rhimes's world. First, Rose with Derek and now Stephanie with Sam. It's a rough life for a nurse in Shondaland.

    As much as I loved the series finale and thought it was amazing, I was sad that we didn't see Betsy, Lucas, Henry, Maya or Olivia. I understand that with 43 minutes it is difficult, but I would hope that Maya (and Dink) would at least attend the wedding of Sam and Naomi. Either way, I was glad these two got back together. VERY predictable, but bitter sweet and just great.
    I was happy that Charlotte and Cooper got their happy ending with 4 healthy children, Addison and Jake were having a happy life together, Amelia was happy with James (regardless of her VERY minimal screen time) and that Violet stayed single! Sheldon quitting The Practice was upsetting, see as when Miranda dies, he won't have anyone. I was hoping for a flash forward and seeing he and Violet end up together.
    Overall, an perfect ending to a perfect series. Great run you had Private Practice. I will miss you!

    I loved the finale, but there was not enough Charlotte and Cooper scenes. I will miss the most. I hope those cut scenes will be included in the DVD.

    Thank You Private Practice for a wonderful show.....I wish each of the actors and staff the best of luck for the future. I am sure going to miss this show but I know life goes forward and so does people. Good Night Private Practice!!

    loved the ppp finale. It was everything I wanted to happen. I really wished Naomi and Sam would end up together but then she went away. To have her back and living and loving Sam was amazing.

    I thought it was a nice finale although Naomi being pregnant was a bit stretched giving Sam being a jerk to Addie about having kids. I also didn't like that they reunited while they were both unavailable cause it just doesn't seem fair to Stephanie and Fife (who I really liked). Because I could bare Sam only with Naomi I wanted them to have a fresh start.
    Poor Sheldon, never gets his happy ending.. and where the hell did his cancer go? Did I miss the part where he was cured?
    You're right Christina, no mention of Pete was really the low point of the finale.
    Otherwise I was happy Shonda didn't go out with too much of a bang cause we all know she can be too dramatic and unrealistic.

    He didn't want a child with Addison because in the end he didn't love her nor did she love him. At least in the way he loves Naomi and Addison loves Jake. That was what Shonda was trying to say. He didn't care if Naomi was pregnant or not. All he wanted was to be with her.

    ...I cut Addison and Jake having wedding night sex and Amelia and James having an argument over his response to Sheldon’s grief. I cut a dinner scene with Jake and Naomi and Addison on the deck where they overhear and awkward fight between Sam and his girlfriend.

    Here are the scenes Shonda had to cut:

    So some scenes were cut out of the final 42 minute show you watched. Some scenes that were cut were scenes that I loved.

    Like Violet offering Charlotte and Cooper the use of Pete’s office to be a nursery and everybody bringing their kids to work everyday from now on. There was a great shot of the Cooplets and Lucas and little Henry at one year old all playing in Pete’s old office. Which felt very circle of life-y since Pete died at the beginning of this season.

    I also had to cut Cooper and Charlotte booking a hotel room at the end to have a wild night of sex. But then they decided they were too exhausted for sex and all they admit to one another that all they want is sleep and room service and movies. And Charlotte uttered my favorite line ever: “I have never loved you more.” Cutting that almost killed me.

    I cut Addison and Jake having wedding night sex and Amelia and James having an argument over his response to Sheldon’s gr

    I really love the episode. It was one of the most strong episode on one already stellar season. I'm wondering why is Henry MIA in his parents marriage. Is not logic.

    My favorites storylines was: Charlotte's rape and the aftermath of it; Amelia addiction, the intervention and the unicorn baby; Addison's parents visit and later Susan sickness and Bizzy suicide.

    I didn't like the way they, sometimes, shows Addison as a adulterous bitch, always jumping into bed with Pete, Sam and Mark. She didn't need that. She was my favorite character.

    I have to congratulate you for all the great reviews you give us from all the episodes in this show.

    I thought that it was a great ending but I'm left unsatisfied because of a number of things. The way this finale was done, I know that it ended in a way that lets us know that life will keep going on for these characters and they're all in good places. They're lives are good. I'm really happy for all of them - especially Addison because I think everything fell into place. But where was Henry tonight? I felt like it wasn't right to close the show without showing Addison with him when wasn't that the point of the spin off to begin with? After everything she had gone through to be a mother, I think we should've seen her with him at least once tonight. I'm also terribly unsatisfied with how little we got to see of Charlotte and Cooper. Shonda cut out some great scenes between them and I don't understand why. I thought that all the business with Jake and Angela could've easily been cut - CharCoop fans deserved to see those scenes. I'm glad Sam and Naomi got back together even though the pre

    The Naomi/Sam baby ending was trite and twee - really silly. They are both adults and should have allowed them to move on.

  18. Brooms

    Umm.. Sam expecting another child? Doesn't that just make a joke of that whole thing with Addison. He was in love with Addison but didn't want a child - THAT was why they split and got back together and then realised they wanted different things. The getting back together with Naomi was lovely and gorgeous and fitting. BUt the expecting again just didn't flow for me.
