The “Grey’s Anatomy”/ “Private Practice” Crossover Event Continues Tonight

Last week Remote Lindy filled us in on the GA/PP Crossover Event, an event that amounted to a cryptic phone call. Awesome.

This week the “Event” continues, but ABC might just be bringing their A game.

Idina Menzel To Join Husband Taye Diggs on "Private Practice"

After the abysmal trainwreck that was last week's episode of Private Practice (out of nowhere, everyone in the clinic is a brain specialist? WTF?), we thought nothing could re-ignite our dwindling interest in these characters. However, we underestimated the stregnth of our couple crush on Taye Diggs and Idina Menzel...

Above, Brian Austin Green poses hard as Derek Reese in Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, a show that was recently renewed, in spite of the fact that it’s falling behind in the ratings. Knight Rider, Private Practice, and T:TSOC were all picked up this season despite fairly low viewership. We must say, people should tune into Private Practice just for a quick look at Taye Diggs.

Lindy Parker has worked as a ghostwriter, editor, dance instructor and a purveyor of dreams, one beer at a time. She loves Charles Dickens and Gabriel Garcia Marquez and also, straight-to-video releases with Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen. It's possible she reads more teen fiction than she should. She hails from Los Angeles, her hometown and soul mate, but she lives in Brooklyn, the fling she'll never forget.

Olivia Purnell left Ohio for sunny Los Angeles; then found that she couldn’t ignore New York City’s call, and brought herself to Brooklyn where she has worked with GenArt, BlackBook, the School of American Ballet, and finished an M.A. in Creative Writing from N.Y.U. She loves one-liners with sting and hates the stench of the subway in the summer. That said, she can’t get enough of either.

Jake Kalish is a freelance journalist and humorist whose work has appeared in Details, Maxim, Stuff, New York Press, Spin, Blender, Men's Fitness, Poets and Writers, and Playboy, among other publications. He is also the author of Santa vs. Satan: The Official Compendium of Imaginary Fights.

Ben Kallen is an entertainment, health and humor writer who's been lectured to by Sidney Poitier, argued with by Lea Thompson and smiled at by Jennifer Connelly. He's the coauthor of The No S Diet and author of The Year in Weird, along with hundreds of magazine articles. He lives near the beach in Los Angeles, just like the gang from Three's Company.

Nicole Ankowski has lived in Ohio, Oakland, and on the high plains of South Dakota, but is now proud to call Brooklyn home. She wrote for alternative weekly papers in the first two states, and tried to learn Lakota in the last. (The vowels can be tricky.) She just earned her MFA in Creative Writing and has been published in Beeswax literary journal. She is unable to resist good writing or bad TV.
