I wonder where Sean and Julia stand after the final scene of last week's episode?

Sean's little speech to Matt, Ava and Ava's fucked-up son was awesome. He's definitely not the pushover he was last season.

Wow - now that is what I call a schizophrenic television show.

Bobolic trying to cut of his face was just creepy and then they top that w/ Ava and Adrian.

I hope they end the show this year, because compared to last season this show is spiralling out of control. They are doing too many storylines that have nothing to do w/ the office.

I always had the feeling they were going to have the storyline involving Ava and her son. They always had that vibe to them in the scenes.

I can't say I'm surprised by the last scene, but it's still creepy.

Other then that it was kind of a dull episode.

Next week looks much better.

I was cringing while Christian was trying desperately to avoid the dirty scalpel of Bobolit any way possible. Flashback/homage to Face/Off was in abundance during that scene. It was icky.

[sarcasm ]Ava and Adrian in an incestuous relapse? Gee, didn't see that coming. [/sarcasm ]

I have the same feeling about Nip/Tuck that I did about this past season of Six Feet Under. I don't like any of the characters as they wallow in their own misery; therefore, I don't care what happens to them. That doesn't make for good storytelling or good television.

Man, this show doesn't hold back, does it? Wow. Great episode.

B.A: Two seasons would make sense. Season one's the Nip, Two is the Tuck.

It's the drama equivalent of Alias. Just pulling out every possible trick in order to shock and titillate. Compelling but obtuse.

Too bad because the production values and acting are top notch.

Everybody sensed the tension between the two. It could have been the underlying story that they just wouldn't touch, but they went ahead and touched it, and it's just not right.

I am starting to think that they cun Tuck this season as far away as possible.

Before this season started, I couldn't wait for Famke's addition to the show. Now, I wish they would have never even thought of writing the sub-plot involving her. They could have revealed to Matt who his father was in a different fashion and then killed him off.

A bit disappointing, but it's hard to live up to last week's episode, which was easily my favorite in the show's run to date.

Yeah, not all that surprised about the final scene. The Bobbolit storyline was ok. Kind of surprised there was no Julia though.

Not a surprising end. I guess now they've done just about everything that could piss off the Parents Television Council. Another very entertaining episode.

I missed too many episodes in the middle and quit watching it. Anybody know if it is going to be re-run so I can watch it all in order?

Thanks

You could see the Bobolit ending coming but it was still freaky. And even though, I don't like the thing between Eva and Adrian, I still wanna see what happens next week.

I agree last week's episode was one of the best.

I got a question, when Christian was tied down, he said where's Rose? Bobolit said she took off, got scared from all the blood. Is that what happened? I just found it a bit hard to believe that since she was the one that knocked Christian out, hacked up the other woman, and had the suitcase idea.

The guy was sucking down laughing gas like there was no tomorrow so he probably had no idea where she was at that particular time.
