Nip/Tuck "Kyle Ainge" 1/29/08
This was a pretty "out there" episode featuring cannibalism, teddy bear fetish (and human version of taxidermy-related stuffing), a hilariously inappropriate wake for Gina, and baby-biting. Unreal.

I usually can handle the gorey aspects of Nip/tuck, but it was hard to take in this episode (between the feet, the skinless arms and the cannibalism). Otherwise, it was a good episode though.
The stuffing murder was something else though. You gotta hand it to them - they come up with some interesting ways to kill people on this show.
Gina's wake was one of the funniest scenes I've ever seen on tv.

Oh my G-d, how awesome can this show get. I was so totally sure the conversation where Christian is talking to Wilber was real and I was sitting there with my mouth hanging open, until Wilber asked "Is mommy a skank" and Christian said yes, that's when I knew it was a dream sequence, but it totally had me going
I so totally would buy a Sean bear if they started selling them.

The foot-surgery scene almost made me puke.
And I know this is nit-picking, but there is no way all those sex-addicts from Miami would make it out to LA for that funeral.
And is Julia still eating that fruit-cake?

This episode hit all the right notes for me. It felt very much like the first couple seasons to me. This season has had a few missteps, but I am enjoying it much more than I have the last couple seasons.

Don't get me wrong guys, I love how Nip/Tuck overdramatizes things because Dylan and Julian are such great actors that they can always bring realism to the situation. However, this show is becoming increasingly anti-feminist in my opinion. I've been realizing that these days, the show should be called, "Meet the next Crazy Bitch." Seriously, the writers are running out of ideas. I love the show and don't want it to plummet like it is doing now.

i couldnt stand the wife of the guy who fed her his arm. most annoying performance of a distressed women i have ever seen. that whole plot was just dumb.
i also cant stand that hammer toed "agent" of seans. worst episode of the season by far.
also: are they completely dropping the fruitcake thing? next week's episode has Eden again but no hint at any conflict involving Julia...

WTF was that. It's like they are getting stoned in the writers room now and just coming up with the most insanely ridicoulous storylines possible (I enjoyed the episode of course).
Seriously though, a teddy bear murder. Bizarre.

I loved this episode. Bizarre as bat shit. I knew there was something up with the agent. Her weird teddy bear obsession was only trumped by her teddy bear killing. The little pin eyes cracked me up.
The wake was pure genius. Manuel (right?) "I shall forever whack off to thought of her blowjobs". Haha.
Next week looks AMAZING. Eden and Kimber having rough sex? Time to break out the lotion because someone has obviously been reading my dreams and fantasies.
