I Like to Watch

Give thanks for these purloined lands, and for the fact that you're not a soulless plastic surgeon, an undercover agent posing as a terrorist, or the mother of a 2-year-old.

    Nip/Tuck is So Bad It's Good

    Heather, I agree with everything you've written about Nip/Tuck. However, I think maybe you're missing the spirit of the show. I know it's a fine line between godawful and deliciously godawful, but I like to think Nip/Tuck falls on the "so bad it's good" side of that line. Rather than comparing the show to Six Feet Under, try comparing it to Melrose Place and revel in the over-the-top story lines, poorly developed characters, and completely unnecessary gore. It's fabulous!
