private practice: angst alert!

she really has the pained expression nailed. // abc promotional photo

I haven’t watched Private Practice in several weeks–mostly because I dislike watching 40-somethings act like children–but the promos for tonight’s 2-hour epic throwdown make the episode look promising.

Dell’s daughter is injured in her mom’s meth lab explosion!

Addison’s dad slept with Violet!

Violet and Pete still can’t figure out their Lucas drama!

Addison’s mom is here!

Charlotte is still the most deplorable character on network television!

Maya’s hooking up with boys and her parents are NOT happy about it!

And Dharma’s mom from Dharma and Greg is 60 and pregnant–with a 30-year-old dude’s baby!

Wow. That is a LOT to deal with.  The stuff that sounds cool (one of the sneaks suggests that Dell’s babymama died in the explosion, which would definitely be a good thing, ’cause her storylines suck hard) looks like it might have the power to outweigh the stuff that sounds miserably painful (anything involving Charlotte).

Here’s one sneak peek–there are ELEVEN more at SpoilerTV.
