More Details on Grey’s Anatomy and Private Practice Crossovers
August 19, 2009 by Ingrid Diaz
In an effort to get more people to watch both Grey’s Anatomy and Private Practice, ABC and Shondaland are planning some crossovers between the two shows. They’re banking that if they give us some connected storylines we’ll undoubtedly tune in. Already, we know that Chandra Wilson will be leaping over to Private Practice for a crossover episode.
Now the L.A. Times tells us that Alexie Gilmore (World’s Greatest Dad) is shooting an episode of Private Practice that will eventually send her over to Grey’s Anatomy. Details as to what will be involved in the Grey’s side of things remains hidden in the dark abyss wherein Shonda keeps all the stuff she doesn’t yet want us to know.
But, we do know the following regarding her storyline for Private Practice:
Gilmore will be playing a dying woman in need of a kidney transplant. Her sister is the only one that can give her this kidney. After this, her character will head on over to Grey’s to … well, to something.
More details on this when they rain down on us. In the meantime, what do you think of all of these crossovers? Do you think ABC has the right idea? Do you watch Private Practice anyway?

I didn’t watched season 1 and 2 (if the upcoming season is seaason 3) but now i’m gonna buy 1 and 2 and gonna watch 3!!!
I watched season 2 of private practice and like it
will def watch season 3, but I think crossovers should be more about the regular cast, rather than “strays” if they are using it as a strategy to keep us tuned in. TBH, I really don’t care that a patient went from LA to Seattle, or the other way round, but I will definitely watch Chandra Wilson on P.P!
hate private practice, hate this whole crossover deal
I watch Private Practice and I hate the crossovers. I never cared about Grey’s Anatomy. Maybe it’s because I watch Private Practice only for Tim Daly and Amy Brenneman.
Does anyone know when the new season of greys anatomy and private practice are starting back up??
I didn’t like PP, but then I watched the 1st season and now..I LOVE it!
i only started watching private practice at the start of the second series. i don’t think i like it better than Grey’s though, but i’ve really warmed to it now. i love the character of addison. i don’t think they should cross characters over for good though. i don’t think people will llike PP better than GA because it’s a spin off and they just never seem to be as good :/ sorry
I absolutely adore the crossovers.
I was devastated when Kate Walsh left but if you haven’t already, you have got to watch Private Practice. It’s fantastic! Can’t wait for the new seasons to start!
