The 'Doctor' Is In

The second season of "Web Therapy," Lisa Kudrow's sublime improvisational series, is now online. This time around the Webby-award-winning show features Fiona Wallice sitting down for her patented three-minute therapy sessions (the traditional 50-minute style brings up "too many feelings") with former co-star Courteney Cox, Steven Weber and Alan Cumming. The season premiere features Julie Claire as a self-diagnosed "exercise bulimic," and clearly "Dr." Wallice isn't buying it. (The Webby could have been awarded for her facial expressions alone!) This show is a lot like "The Comeback" in its subtlety and humor. If you just watch a couple minutes of it you won't find it all that amusing. But as you get to know the characters, it becomes a fascinating study of narcissism and insecurity delivered in a way that only Lisa Kudrow can. Check it out HERE.
