Whats next is a fourth season that will look quite different, as creator Bill Lawrence has spoken about these first three seasons being a closed arc; the new season will feature a time jump and a completely different story, he told The Hollywood Reporter following the end of season three.

We ve seen Jimmy going through it, but its been with an emotional twisted ankle. We need to see him run a little bit and break out.

Why This Matters

Shrinking follows a group of friends and therapists, led by Segel, as they try to heal both their patients and themselves from their past traumas. The star d the emotion thats brought out of him over the past several years, as every time I do a scene with Lukita Maxwell, who plays my daughter, I start to tear up. I think its just because I ve been tuned to think of her as my daughter and we ve been through a lot together in the show and I ve watched her grow up as a human being.

The entertainment world moves fast, and this is a prime example.

The Bottom Line

I think its just because I ve been tuned to think of her as my daughter and we ve been through a lot together in the show and I ve watched her grow up as a human being.

What’s your take on this whole situation?
