Private Practice: It’s All Over!
Last night was the big finale of “Private Practice,” and pretty much every had a happily ever after storyline.
The show definitely pulled a fast one with the previews, as it seemed the whole show was going to center around Addison and her wedding and whether she would or wouldn’t. The only issue Addison faced at her wedding was a delay waiting for Naomi to show up, as her flight was late. Naomi arrived and the wedding went off without a hitch, and in the first few minutes as well.
At the wedding Naomi and Sam reconnected, and went off and had sex with one another. Then the next thing we knew, three months had passed. Naomi went back to Washington, and Sam continued dating the nurse as if nothing had happened.
Violet helped a patient move on with her life after she survived a terrible accident that killed her boyfriend and her parents. It was Haddie from “Parenthood.” I just can’t escape her! The whole session basically seemed to be a metaphor for Violet’s life as well. As the patient had found acceptance and finally happiness in her own life over the years, so finally had Violet. She ended up writing a new book by the end of the show which she called “Private Practice.”
Sheldon and his girlfriend remained together, though she began to lose her fight against cancer. She begged him not to stay with her or watch her go through this, but he wouldn’t leave her. They ended up going on some beach vacation together, where we assume he finally had to say goodbye to her (probably as Bette Midler sang in the background).
Cooper took off work to take care of the triplets while Charlotte went back to work, but eventually he made her realize they needed a Nanny because it was too much even for him. Meanwhile Amelia and her Dr. were continuing to see one another and be happy.
The focus of the episode really was on Naomi, who ended up pregnant with Sam’s baby. She had also broken up with Fife, and confided in Addison. However when she learned that Addison and Sam didn’t work out as he didn’t want anymore kids, she decided to go on with her life and not tell Sam. I’m not sure how long she expected to pull that off? Addison finally told Sam that Naomi still loved him, and he realized he still was in love with her. He then dumped his nurse and reunited with Naomi, shocked to learn she was pregnant. He was also happy as well. Frankly I know Addison had moved on, but I think she should have been a little annoyed that Sam was okay having a baby with Naomi and not with her.
The end of the show had Sam and Naomi marrying and reuniting, and Naomi apparently moving back and rejoining the practice. Then Violet told them all about her new book and the title, which they all made fun of as a horrible title.
All in all, I am glad everyone got a happy ending for the most part. The reunion of Sam and Naomi was sweet, even if a little far fetched giving how big of an ass Sam had become over the last few years.
