Has anyone looked at the show Nip/Tuck lately? For fuck sake! If you mixed the Playboy Mansion, Jack the Ripper and a bit of Marlyn Manson together, you would begin to get an idea of what it’s like. I used to watch it when it appeared first on TnaG a couple of years ago. I know what you’re thinking, what the fuck were you watching TnaG for? But that question is for another day.

Now, I don’t mind admitting that when Nip/Tuck first appeared on our screens, I was a fan. In the beginning, it was mainly just a show about the lives of two plastic surgeons. But fast forward a couple of seasons. Suddenly we’re talking absolutely crazy shit. The freaky son of one the surgeons finds out he’s really the son of the other surgeon. He then finds himself a much older girlfriend, who actually used to be a man(ha ha) and,of course, she’s mad as a brush too. Meanwhile, there is a dickless (seriously) dude going around cutting up everyone, his sister joins him on his grizzly task(as you do)!! The last straw came in the form of JR Ewing, he appeared on the show with his much younger girlfriend in tow! My innocent mind could no longer take it, the end of my Nip/Tuck days had come.

Then, the other night I was flicking through the vast amount of useless channels that is Sky digital, when I felt myself drawn towards TG4 (Shit I just realised that’s what it’s called now). Nip/Tuck just happened to be on and I felt compelled to watch it for old times sake.

I was quite amused to see it has gotten even worse, what a freak show, its absolutely mad! The leading lady is now a lesbian and her girlfriend is poisoning her. The freaky son went off and shagged his sister (he didn’t know that she was his sister, ha, what a dopey fucker) . Meanwhile, the two main characters are carving up people like they’re roast beef dinners on a Sunday. And then shagging the left overs. I’m sure that there is a lot more crazy assed stuff going on too. But I could only stick watching it for five minutes before I had to change the channel, for my own sanity of course.

Maybe I being a little bit harsh on the show, nah probably not harsh enough. In saying this I now feel it my duty to struggle painfully through next weeks’ show. Just so I can report back what weirdo, sadistic and incestuous things are happening in the world that is Nip /Tuck.*

*Please do not hold me to this as I think I might have a very important job on that night. Probably cleaning the toilet! I’ll see the same amount of shit either way.
