I have to admit, Nip/Tuck is a show I’ve always wanted to get into, but just haven’t had the opportunity. Seriously. Want proof? I totally mentioned it in the post I wrote about Weeds.
So, what do I know about Nip/Tuck? Little to nothing. I know that Mario Lopez’s nekkid guest appearance sent the gay blog circuit on fire (don’t click the link if you don’t like looking at butts). I know that there was something about a serial killer a couple seasons ago and they did this big MySpace promotion about it.
Instead of just giving you the standard summary, I’ll tell you what I think Nip/Tuck is about, along with some extrapolation that I’ve just made up. If you want the official summary, it’s after the jump.
Nip/Tuck is about two LA plastic surgeons played by Dylan Walsh and Julian McMahon (note: see, I’ve already got that wrong — they’re from South Beach). Julian’s character is named Noah (wrong again, his name’s Christian. Okay, I’ll stop correcting myself) who is a wealthy playboy who will sleep with anything that moves. And is a woman. I’d like to think there was a short-lived bicurious story arc, but I don’t really know that that happened. Whereas Noah is an extravagant party boy, Dylan Walsh’s character, Tyler, is a staid family man. His wife makes dinner and his kids, Amber and Jean-Claude dote upon him.
The series follows the surgeons as they face a parade of wacky clients wanting their bulgy parts bulgier and their loose parts tighter. This is a clever vehicle for fun guest stars including Rosie O’Donnell, who plays a woman who wants to have her leg amputated for fun like those people in that documentary Whole.
This picture is of the doctors on a quiet night hanging out at their nurse, Irene’s house. Irene and her son like to watch reruns of Mr. Belvedere and make popcorn. The doctors kindly indulge her family ritual.
This picture is of Noah at a blind date that ends up being with one of his clients. The one where the lady had little silicon horns put in her forehead because she is trying to become a circus freak. Next stop, having her teeth drilled into little fangs!
Okay. That’s enough of that. If you’d like to read what the show is really about, find out after the jump. Good luck!
Synopsis:
Sex. Seduction. Liposuction. Find them all in the fearless Nip/Tuck, the award-winning series that’s the scalpel’s edge of entertainment…and the spark for debate about what cosmetic surgery can or cannot bring to a patient’s life. Dylan Walsh and Julian McMahon play plastic surgeons/best friends whose glamorous South Beach practice is a revolving door for Season 4’s hot-button issues (including a terrifying story arc about an organ-harvest ring) and human foibles (a ventriloquist wants to look like his dummy). Guest stars include Jacqueline Bissett, Larry Hagman, Alanis Morissette, Mo’Nique, Rosie O’Donnell, Brooke Shields and more. Thrills, surprises, shocks, stars abound in this 5-Disc Set. And all it takes is a little Nip/Tuck.
it’s so weird because i remember watching charmed and thinking, “you’d think they would have found someone more attractive to play phoebe’s boyfriend.” but then nip/tuck came out and i just watched premonition and julian macmahon is really, really hot. maybe it was the way he combed his hair. or the name “cole.” i really hate that name.
If you don’t want to leave your email address for all to see, you can always send it to TiFaux at gmail dot com. We’ll still know if you cheat, though. (Hope that’s okay, Dan.)
I finally started watching N/T this past season, and while I’m still not sure whether I like it or not, it certainly gives me lots of beautiful men to look at. Slater’s butt was fine, but I much prefered Julain’s fantasy dream of him and dylan at a gay resort. Now that was hot!
