Nip/Tuck 9/30

Christian and Sean need to be recertified; Sean must be honest with himself when Megan O'Hara's health takes a turn for the worse; Mrs. Gurbman discovers she needs a purpose in life.

Now that the new Fall TV season is underway, I realize how good of a TV show this truly is. What will Christian's temptations lead him to do this week? Will Shawn continue to live a lie to his wife or come clean since his son already knows?

Can't wait to find out!

Edited to remove spoiler tags.

Good overall episode. The suicide scene really was disturbing though.

This show continues to impress me. I thought they would wrap up the whole Michael Jackson running over the girl plot line but I guess they'll wait on that one. The suicide scene was as moving as any great drama and yet they still managed to create some funny spots as well. Kudos to the cast and writers.

Good episode.

The suicide and Sean and Julia at the end were excellent. It's was good to see Sean finnaly get it off his chest.

at Christian calling Mrs. Grubman "beefcurtains"

The suicide scene was very well done. So was the Sean/Julia scene.

Wonderful episode. Full of witty humor and heartbreaking drama. The suicide scene was very powerful as was Sean and Julia's scene at the end.

I love this show!

The beefcurtains had me rolling. The suicide scene was very well done I thought, pretty powerful moment.

Can someone give me a recap of this episode, I missed it and don't think I'll get a chance to see it. Who committed suicide?

The lady that Sean had been having an affair with... curly shoulder-length brown hair with metastatic cancer. I know her as Chris Farley's girlfriend from Tommy Boy.

A pretty powerful episode. Also, the only episode that I can think of where there wasn't any gratuitous sex scenes (not that those are necessarily bad ).

The suicide scene and the dumping of the ashes into the sea were pretty emotional.

Beefcurtains.

The episode with the priest had little or no sex scenes IIRC, the wife made a comment about it. She thinks this is just a softcore porn tv series.

That final scene between Julia and Sean was heart-wrenching. Good solid drama (that you don't get much of elsewhere, I might add).

This is a really compelling show to watch, even though having the old lady from the Drew Carey show spout off as Sean's conscience was really disturbing and creepy at times.

This kinda reminded me of that Six Feet Under episode in Season 1, where the dead kid talked to David Fisher, and convinced him to grow a pair.
