Welp, it seems Kate Walsh isn't the only one cutting ties with Private Practice… the whole cast and crew will have to say goodbye at the end of THIS Season!
The show's creator Shonda Rhimes posted on her WhoSay account:
"I'm sad to say that Private Practice's run will end after episode 613 this season. There was a lot of discussion and debate but, in the end, the guys at the network and the studio and I all decided that Private Practice was reaching its finish line. Creatively, we are all extremely proud of the show and especially proud of this season — which you will all soon discover is a creative renaissance. I can't wait for you to see it."
Sadsiez!
Ah well, there's always Private Practice's parent show Grey's Anatomy to turn to for some doctor on doctor lovin' and anxiety-causing medical drama…
Although now with McSteamy dead and gone, the show has lost some major SEXXX appeal!
Such an important message!
In fact, one that is now more important than EVER!
In honor of National Voter Registration Day, Fergie Ferg and countless other celebrities have collaborated on one INCREDIBLE anthem encouraging women across the country to take advantage of their right to vote in the Presidential election this November!
And while it's a message that of which EVERYONE should take notice, Balcony Films and The Voter Participation Center, who are behind the project, revealed that it's meant specifically for unmarried women, persons of color and young people - as they comprise 53% of the eligible voting population, yet represent 63% of unregistered citizens!
As producer Julie Bergman Sender recently explained:

Well, we could have told you that!
Warner Bros is testing the waters for Bethenny Frankel's new daytime talk show, creatively named Bethenny — and so far it's a HIT!
The six-week test run of the show in selected cities started Monday, and so far it has been the highest-rated daytime talker tested on the Fox stations.
The show got even MORE buzz today when Private Practice star Kate Walsh confirmed she was leaving the show, live on Bethenny!
Congrats gurl!
We bet those Real Housewives of NYC you left behind are CRAZY jealous!
The rumors are TRUE!!
Private Practice's leading lady, Kate Walsh, says the sixth season of the medical drama will be her LAST!
The redhead dropped the depressing news on Bethenny (Bethenny Frankel's new talk show), saying:

We're sure Private Practice fans were sad to hear that Tim Daly would not be returning to the series next season, but they'll be even more disappointed to hear that Kate Walsh is leaving soon too!
The show is rumored to be going bye-bye after the 13-episode sixth season this fall, but if ABC decides to renew, the series' star is done after next year no matter what.
Sources have confirmed that

Tears!!
Bad news: Private Practice fans that lurve Pete Wilder's story line are going to be deeply disappointed!
Original cast member, Tim Daly, announced he will not be returning to the ABC drama for its sixth season.
The Grey's Anatomy spin-off was facing cancelation earlier this month, but the network recently announced the show will indeed be returning this fall — without Daly.
Tim tweeted the sad news late Tuesday, writing:

Helloooooooo, nurse!
The series once seemed ripe for cancellation, but a recent ratings spike has ABC leaning toward renewing Private Practice for a sixth and final season.
Hollywood buzz has these ridiculously good-looking Grey’s Anatomy castaways healthcare professionals coming back for 13 more episodes.
We feel like we've just been injected with 200 CC’s of AWESOME!
We are excited to see
