Re: Nip/Tuck cancelled, final episode to air 2011

I'm currently watching it on DVD, almost done with s3, just wondering if it only gets worse?

I enjoyed S1, but S2 and on has been pretty bad, they just seemed to ram as many 'jump the shark' storylines into S2 as they could

S3 is the low point IMO. It rebounds after S4, but nothing tops S1.

I didn't like the long delays with The Sopranos, either. At least in that case, they were generally production delays. These are just idiotic delays in my book because the shows are done. First it was The Shield. Now it's Nip/Tuck. The Shield was slightly plausible because FX had a lot of content at that point. Have they even replaced many of their originals they canceled?
USA's split seasons are great, because the show is never gone long enough for you to miss it. F/X got ridiculous. The Shielf layoffs were crazy. I know some of that was probably to build in time off for the cast to do other things, but it made following the show a little hard.

If you don't like that stop watching now. They jump the shark in every single episode of season 3, 4 and 5. That's why I love the show.

Seriously, you're better off if you stop expecting quality and instead just enjoy the naughty, depraved fun. It's so goddamn refreshing (even more so 'cause it'a American)

Re: Nip/Tuck cancelled, final episode to air 2011

The first season was very good, then it turned into a "How far can we push things" kind of show and, aside form tuning in occasionally to watch the freakshow it became, I haven't really watched since S1.

I do like all the actors involved so I hope to see them on other projects in the future. I did see a trailer for the new Stepfather movie that stars Dylan Walsh so that's something.

New definition of the word "cancelled". I guess Lost has been cancelled, too.

Seriously. After the laughably obvious reveal of who the slasher was, and Christian boinking anything that moved, I gave up on the show.

S3 Spoiler:

Spoiler:
So uh, do they ever revisit Julia's mother? The end the episode with her not being on the plane, for some reason I thought it could be Julia hallucinating, but they don't ever mention it again rest of the season. I just checked wikipedia and that was her mother's last appearance on the show also?

Spoiler:
well christian kind of gave up banging anything that moved (at times it seemed like Sean was put in that position) when it was revealed he had cancer, but prob due to the reveal at the end of the season, he will prob go back to his screwing ways in no time

Yeah really. A friend of mine posted this on facebook, saying she was sooooo pissed it was canceled. Had to explain it was a planned ending announced long ago.
