Justin Kirk leads the cast of NBC’s half-hour comedy series Animal Practice. Kirk stars as a veterinarian in the new series debuting on September 26, 2012.

Joining Justin Kirk in season one are JoAnna Garcia Swisher as Dorothy Crane, Tyler Labine as Dr Doug Jackson, Bobby Lee as Dr Yamamoto, and Kym Whitley as Juanita. Betsy Sodaro plays Nurse Angela and Crystal is Dr Rizzo.

The Plot: Animal Practice is a new comedy centering on Dr. George Coleman (Kirk), a top veterinarian with an impressive list of famous animal patients at the Crane Animal Hospital – a bustling New York City veterinary practice where it often seems as if the patients are running the place. Despite his unorthodox style, George has an undeniable gift with animals of all kinds – except the human kind.

Much to his chagrin, George recently learned that his ex-girlfriend, Dorothy Crane (Swisher), has inherited the family business and is now George’s boss. Whip-smart and ambitious, Dorothy shakes up the hospital as she brings order to the chaos and butts heads with George’s animal-friendly administration.
