Web Therapy – Lisa Kudrow’s Webshow Now Available At iTunes – Win The First Season Here!

Lisa Kudrow‘s quirky webshow comedy about a misguided therapist is available now on iTunes, so I thought it was about time I visited the show here. The show stars Kudrow as Fiona Wallice, a therapist who has had just about enough of patients who go on and on at her about themselves and all their little problems.

The theory behind things is that Fiona has decided to cut to the chase by providing therapy via three-minute video chat sessions. Unfortunately for her clients, she can hardly manage to track a conversation, much less provide any helpful counseling.

Easily bored, self-interested, and with questionable credentials, Fiona nevertheless hopes to eventually spin her idea into a franchise-worthy web presence.

Here’s a rundown of what we get in season one -

In season one, we’re introduced to Richard Pratt (Tim Bagley). Fiona is surprised to learn her new client is a fondly remembered old-flame. Next we’re introduced to Jerome Sokoloff (Dan Bucatinsky), a 35-year-old neurotic, hypochondriac jingle writer who’s a carry-over from Fiona’s former in-person practice. Haley (Rashida Jones), much more sane, is Jerome’s girlfriend who joins in the second and third sessions.

Jerome is followed by client Ted Mitchell (Bob Balaban), a well known, respected and highly skilled psychiatrist. Ted is almost as politely condescending as Fiona herself. He’s brought on by Fiona’s potential investor, a former client of Lachman Bros., to “test-drive” Fiona’s concept.

Following Ted Mitchell, we’re introduced to Clare Dudek (Jane Lynch), a tightly wound, confrontational advertising executive who’s been ordered by her company to undergo counseling after she threw a stapler at an underling. The season wraps up with clients Bryn (Patty Guggenheim) and Justin (Drew Sherman), a young, hip couple in their twenties who come in — ostensibly — for couples counseling.

The show is hilarious, and during its run so far the patients/victims have included: Courteney Cox, Victor Garber, Alan Cumming, Steven Weber, Julie Claire and Dan Bucatinsky. Beginning June 30th, Web Therapy will be exclusively available on iTunes for $1.99 per episode. Each episode includes five, three-minute webisodes and additional narrative from Lisa Kudrow’s character, Fiona. Also available is a free download of the series premiere and behind-the-scenes featurettes from each season.
