By Joanna Hunkin.Grey's Anatomy fans will be fully clued in on this new spin-off series, which was introduced to viewers in a special episode of Grey's late last season.
For those who aren't devoted followers, here's the lowdown: Neonatal surgeon Addison Montgomery has given up on her failed marriage to Dr Derek Shepherd (known as McDreamy), which ended when she had an affair with his best friend, Dr Mark Sloan (known as McSteamy).
Deciding to make a clean break, she has moved to Los Angeles, to join the private practice of two of her oldest friends. Leaving behind the drama filled corridors of Seattle Grace hospital seems like a fresh start for Addison - until she arrives in LA to discover her best friends have separated and none of the staff have been informed of their new colleague.
As tempers flare, Addison discovers life is just as complicated on the West Coast. Plus, there is the instant chemistry between her and workmate Peter Wilder.
Produced by the same team behind Grey's Anatomy, Private Practice takes a lighter approach to life and love than the increasingly bleak Grey's. Without the incessant whining of Meredith Grey and the antics of Izzie Stevens, Private Practice makes for better watching than the original series.
Private Practice begins Monday, 8.30pm on TV2.
