"Web Therapy" Season 2 on Showtime is a comedy starring Emmy Award-winning actress Lisa Kudrow that originally was an online series that has run for three seasons.
Kudrow plays a self-professed psychotherapist who treats patients via webcam in hilarious sessions that are way too brief to ever make any material progress in her clients' lives. And for the clients she has amassed a roster of comedic guest star talent that includes Jane Lynch ("Glee"), Rashida Jones ("The Office"), and Courteney Cox
This innovative series was conceived and is executive produced by Kudrow and her producing partners Dan Bucatinsky (for their Is or Isn't Entertainment) and director/producer Don Roos, all of whom executive produce NBC's "Who Do You Think You Are?" Roos' extensive feature credits include "Marley & Me," "The Opposite of Sex," and "Love and Other Impossible Pursuits," starring Kudrow and Golden Globe winner Natalie Portman, produced by Kudrow and Bucatinsky for Is or Isn't.
Kudrow channels Dr. Fiona Wallice, a narcissistic, so-called therapist with no discernable training who aims to "heal" her patients online in weekly, three-minute sessions — a modality she believes more effective than the traditional 50-minute talk-a-thons heralded by other mental health professionals. However, she spends more time feigning boredom, interrupting and giving meaningless personal data than hearing her patient's issues. The cast also includes Julia Louis-Dreyfus ("The New Adventures of Old Christine"), Michael McDonald ("Mad TV"), and veteran star Bob Balaban ("For Your Consideration"), are given a script framework, but ad-lib their performances with riotous results.
