Next session with Dr. Weston starts in April…

I loved the first season of ‘In Treatment’ and based on what I have read of this preview… this season could be even better, if that was even possible. This is going to be an interesting season, and it starts in April. That’s a bit of a wait, but that means the season could stretch into June/July which is cool cause there’s usually nothing to watch during that time anyway…

Have a read, this second season sounds like it’s going to rule.

‘In Treatment’: News on your next session with Dr. Weston

“In Treatment,” HBO’s addictive psychotherapy drama, returns in April, the network confirmed Monday.

Gabriel Byrne will be back as therapist Paul Weston, who has set up a new practice in Brooklyn, and Dianne Wiest, who played Weston’s own therapist, will return as Gina Toll (Weston will commute back to Maryland each week to see her).

As Zap2it.com previously reported, Glynn Turman, who won an Emmy for his amazing turn as the father of one of Weston’s patients, will return in Season 2 as a guest star. Michelle Forbes played Weston’s wife last season in a series of intense and terrific scenes; a representative for the network said Forbes may also be back as a guest star in Season 2.

Paul’s new group of patients will be played by:

  • Hope Davis as a single attorney named Mia
  • Aaron Shaw as Oliver, a stressed-out 11 year old; his parents will be played by Russell Hornsby and Sherri Saum
  • John Mahoney will play a CEO in crisis
  • Alison Pill is April, an architecture student

    For a few more details on each of these characters (and the lowdown on the Westons’ marriage), click below.

    From an HBO description of the show:

    “In the second season of ‘In Treatment,’ the newly divorced Dr. Paul Weston (Gabriel Byrne) has relocated to Brooklyn and now runs his therapy practice out of the living room of his brownstone. Among his new patients are Mia (Hope Davis), an attorney and former patient who has become his patient again after Paul asks her law firm to defend him in a lawsuit; Oliver (Aaron Shaw), an 11-year-old who manifests the stress of his parents’ (Russell Hornsby, Sherri Saum) divorce by over-eating; Walter (John Mahoney), a CEO who, when confronted by professional scandal and personal loss, finds his life-long defenses are no longer holding; and April (Alison Pill), a 23-year-old architecture student who has been diagnosed with cancer but is refusing to seek treatment or tell her parents. Each Friday, Paul takes the train to Maryland to resume his own therapy sessions with Dr. Gina Toll (Dianne Wiest).”

    Thanks for your note, I will consider it. It is true that the truth always comes out, and the people who try to keep a secret for whatever reason will have egg on their face as a result.

    I’ll have to get my personal downloader to find this show for me, as I’ve heard a lot about it. And I LURVE John Mahoney.
