All new ABC dramas will re-launch in the Fall, as there will be no other new shows next year due to the strike. So no new PP eps until then. They do start shooting in April though - presumably because guest-stars like David Sutcliffe are only contracted for a certain period of time.

Article from TV Guide

Although Private Practice won't return with new episodes for another seven months, Kate Walsh and Audra MacDonald are anxious to report back to the Oceanside Wellness Center as soon as April. And if you ask the two, it's about time. "We're thrilled. We're ready. We're chomping at the bit," an excited McDonald told TV Guide at Thursday night's NAACP Image Awards. The cast of the ABC hit is not disappointed in the decision to save all new episodes for the new season. Walsh is even relieved. "It would be such a mad rush to try to squeeze in what would probably be just three episodes, so I'd rather start over and relaunch it," she shared. "Hopefully our fans will be loyal and be wanting to tune in again watch it." Although neither Walsh or McDonald have any idea about future plot lines, McDonald is desperate to find out the outcome of her character's love triangle — as are her relatives. "I'm dying! I want to know who I end up with, Sam or Dell? Some of my aunts want me to end up with Dell. They're like, "We think the little white boy is cute! You should end up with him!" Until the fall, all we can do is wait.

[kostilicious]

[jammin]

[me and the sky]

Yeah! but actually it's good that we get new fresh start!

[Honey-Girl]

Oh that is sad that there will be no new episodes.

[Imzadi]

I jut hope the shows surives this. I mean its their first season.. but well the show is great and has great ratings.. I hope it stays that way

[kostilicious]

I think the people really like PP.. so I can#t imagine thesy won't watch it anymore.. even if it's fall for ne wepisodes..

[SwanQueenLove]

I hope the show survives this too, and hopefully it will since the ratings were high like you said babe. It's just too bad that we have to wait that long to see something new although Kate said that it's better this way because they don't have to try to fit everything into 3 episodes so I guess that it is better this way.

[Imzadi]

yeah okay I get that.. still I will miss the show. we just had 9 episodes.. sniff
