I think it isn't. If you look at my casting spoiler above, you'll see

Spoiler:
the return of Grace Santiago and Vanessa (Matt's ex-girlfriend). Seems a bit odd, timing wise

Spoiler:
Wasn't Valerie Cruz (who played Dr. Santiago) fired from the show, which is why her character was dropped so abruptly? This was well documented around the time it happened... I guess they could still bring her back, but it seems very unlikely. Or maybe she's played by a different actress.

No, according to the cast list for the episode, s/he is definitely in the finale. Same actor/ess.

This may have been posted already, because it is definitely being discussed on other message boards, but Kristin from E Online, who has seen the finale and knows who the Carver is, dropped the following hint about the Carver's identity (spoilerized because I'm assuming this legitimately leads to the name of a character/actor):

Spoiler:
Tookiesam

Someone asked her "Can you tell me who the Carver is?" and she responded "Tookiesam." She later described it on her message board as "a real hint, not a cop out" and again as "obscure, but not a manarag" (not an anagram, which is what nearly everyone was thinking, especially since the word "Kit" shows up in certain anagrams).

Although it's probably in slightly poor taste, this clue was revealed right when Crips leader Tookie Williams' execution was in the news earlier this week. So a definite possibility is Tookie's AM - Tookie's alma mater, which (I'm assuming it doesn't refer to a school) is San QUENTIN Prison.

I'm assuming you're referring to TV Guide... they're just still using the first season cast list. If you click on any of the episode titles (I just tried it), Kate Mara and Valerie Cruz are listed. Also on every cast list for every episode is Kelsey Batelaan, who plays Annie McNamara - and we KNOW she hasn't been in every episode! :)

Well, the cast lists for e14 and e15 are different, that's why I'm thinking it might be legit.

I've always found Kristen to be slightly above total fucking retard, who doesn't know shit and is frequently wrong. Doesn't mean that she is here, but I don't give what she says any creedence.

That clue doesnt make much sense.

Here are more odds. This is just like the Oscars with everyone doing their Vegas odds bets.


NIP/LUCK: As Tuesday's season-finale reveal of Nip/Tuck's Carver draws near, the betting community is wagering on the slasher's identity. According to the Wynn Las Vegas Race & Sports book, Quentin is the current favorite, paying 8-to-5, followed by Matt (5-to-2), Det. McGraw (3-to-1) and Bobolit (8-to-1). Liz, the front-runner per TV Guide's own Damian Holbrook, is Wynn's No. 5 pick, with 10-to-1 odds.

I always what happened to
Spoiler:
Grace
and they never even mentioned her again.
I dont remember
Spoiler:
Vanessa



I emailed the Carver this morning on myspace.com telling him to please kill Matt but he/she never responded.

The woman who wanted the job with Sachs and thought Sean botched her lipo (but she overate).

WAY too old to be the Carver.

riley_dude 12-16-05 04:58 PM

She was played by Jill Clayburg

OldBoy 12-16-05 06:48 PM

What's the real deal with Season 3 Finale?
 
1. My next week's TV Guide says it starts at 9pm

2. TV Guide online says this Tuesday's (12/20) episode is the first of back-to-back finale episodes.

I thought it would be a 2-hour finale.

So...what is the truth? when? how long? etc...

Any fan of Ryan Murphy's pre-Nip/tuck program Popular can tell you the show was notorious for completely dropping a regular character, never to be mentioned again. I notice similarities between the two shows, which is why I'm afraid the carver in the end will make no good sense.

Are you suggesting the Carver is

April Tuna

It's two episodes pasted together to make a 2 hour finale.

That would be hillarious, and link both of his shows. Here's a pick of the masked killer from Popular: http://www.geocities.com/themanofyou...-thekiller.JPG
sort of a cross between the Carver and Michael Jackson.

so does it start at 9pm and goto 11 or 10pm and goto 12am??
why isn't this listed anywhere? people with TIVO can you tell with that???

dadaluholla 12-16-05 09:08 PM

The preview said a two hour finale at 10:00 pm.

Patman 12-16-05 09:14 PM

Due to the adult nature of this show, it makes a 10 p.m. EST show (meaning, I doubt you'll ever see it airing before 10 p.m. during repeats or new episodes).

jkenn24 12-16-05 11:35 PM

am i imaging it or did i see a commerical for the finale saying it was commerical free?

ChristopherS 12-17-05 08:47 AM

I'm banging ideas around in my head... can someone tell me if Christian and Sean knew Quinten prior to having him come in to work for them, or did they just know of him?

Christain and Quentin seemed to know each other as more than just collegues when they met.

yes. Cris and Sean went to Atlanta i believe where he worked prior for a specific case (which i don't remember) or Quentin came to Miami one time for the case.

so it is a 2-hour finale, Tuesday 12/20 starting at 10pm, right??

sebastianv50 12-17-05 01:30 PM

I'm guessing that Gina is the Carver, but my girlfriend said that Gina was out in the church waiting for Kimber like everyone else at the time that Kimber was abducted. Does anyone know if this is true? Because if so it would be very difficult for he alone to be the Carver.

Green Smurf 12-17-05 01:41 PM

I still say that its the detective Kit.
