So Nip/Tuck stooped to bestiality - I shouldn't be surprised, but I AM! I sat there in utter disbelief as the husband talked about peanut butter and his wife getting her jollies...I just KNEW what was going to happen next. Nip/Tuck never ceases to amaze me.

I really really like the small guy (crap, I don't know what's PC here...and I can't remember his name...lol) - anyway I really like this guy and hope he stays around for awhile.

It was so great seeing Liz featured so prominently. I felt bad for her when she woke up to having her kidney cut out. The Michelle backstory is interesting too....I can't wait to see how this all plays out. I am pissed that Christian forced her to sleep with her though for his silence. Not surprised though...

How great was it to see Megan again!?! I loved her....Great 'high-dream' sequence for Sean and I'm so glad he ended up not doing anything with the girl again...

Looks like we see more Kimber next week - I'm looking forward to it.

I really did not like this episode.

- The beastiality thing was pointless, stupid, shock value. The thing I love about N/T is it always finds a way to incorporate the contraversy and shock value into its stories and have them serve a purpose. That was just dumb.

- The Liz thing was just kind of dropped.

- I thought the secret about the manager would be bigger than being a hooker. They set that up for a bigger bang.

- Kimber and Matt are/have been.......WHERE? Next week they just pop back in after missing for three weeks?

- Where was Mario Lopez!?

- Why have there STILL been no [!@#$%^&*] Christian and Julia scenes!?!

Last night's was a miss for me....after three really big hits.

The plus side was the Devil/Angel thing with Megan. I *LOVED* Megan!

The episdoe was a miss for me too Mike. There were a few parts I liked but the episode seemed too all over the place last night. I liked Liz being featured more, but again nothing seemed to go together last night. A better way for things would have somehow had Liz's kidney thing tie into the secret for her new boss (sorry I forgot her name).

Next week maybe some things will tie together as the blackmail starts but last night was a real miss for me.

There was so much character development, I'm surprised you guys didn't like it?

I thought overall it was an amazing episode. character driven, dark, disturbing and perfect lighting and directing.

I loved loved loved Julia and Myron's scenes. Julia's body's reluctance to bond with her beautiful child, and her attempts at self-assessment.

It was very interesting how Julia and Sean had the same response to Myron's mural in Conor's room, yet for entirely different reasons. "A perfect world ... just before the fall." Powerful stuff

Excellent writing and directing during the brownie trip. :wub: Megan...Am I the only one who thinks Escobar is hot? In a white trash, do me like an animal, gang member kind of way lol

My face hurt when James took the paperweight and hit that poor hooker in the face. She's one crazy bitch.

I was scarred for life seeing little Laura Ingles play a beastiality lover.

Oh and nice to see Marianne Meuerlie (Norma, PSNS) as the nanny at the beginning.

Still stand by my A+ rating for "Shari Noble"

I really think (hope) that the Liz thing and the Michelle/blackmail thing will still tie together eventually...There has to be something more than this 'escort' thing. Maybe Michelle was doing the same thing as the Kidney-cutter. She would have men pay for her sex, and then cut out their kidneys (I mean she did study to become a doctor) - so I'm guessing she could have been one of the types of chicks that cut out Liz's kidney.......therefore the overall blackmailing lord-boss lady was part of the Liz thing.

Make sense? Anyway I have a feeling this is how it might play out - or at least hope as it'd then tie together. WE'll have to see!

I thought the episode was fantastic! The only part that I hated was the beastiality part, mainly because it came out of left field and didnt fit with any story like others have pointed out. It was all just for shock and I hate that contrived [!@#$%^&*].

Yeah I didn't care for the beastiality story either, but the rest of the show was classic Nip/Tuck. So much in depth character drama instead of the usual T&A

TV.com's user rating for last nights eppy is at a 9.2/10 (highest rating in a long time)

Crazy episode, but i enjoyed it....First off, i'm so happy Liz is being used more..The bar pickup and kidney stealing was insane...BUt i can't wait for this organ stealing plot to unfold...

I"m very intrigued by Michelle's backstory..The actress fits so well with the cast....I felt bad for her when Christian basically blackmailed her into having sex with him..but hey there are much worse people you could have to have sex with...

Julia and Sean's story was heartbreaking tonight...Great scenes with Julia and the male nurse..and Sean's trip was great...Great to see the old faces..

Looking forward to next week with Rosie and the return of Matt and Kimber..

    • I wouldn't call Tomas' cuts a modern cut. They appear to be a slim/extreme slim cut⏤cut slimmer down the sides, with a higher armhole, which pulls up/out, depending on the fit of the person's body. Again, I feel like Ms Featherstone is buying to fit the wrong parts of the body; instead of buying to fit their widest parts (shoulders), she's buying things to fit their middle/waist (which is the easiest to ultimately fix without a complete re-cut), and it shows in the finished product. And the only reason it irks me is because I worked in suit sales for nearly ten years, and I notice these things immediately. The fashion(s) on this soap are miles ahead of three of the four others (I like the fashions from Y&R), but the tailoring is a choice, especially where the men are concerned.
    • There probably would have been a good chance they knew of him, especially with his ties to Spaulding and his being involved in so much scandal (meaning there would be plenty of photos and articles around they both would have seen), but I agree the mask was silly, clearly just a TV moment.

    • I think all the suits are fit too tight, except for Jon Lindstrom's. DC lawyers/doctors are not all LA fashion elites. Yes, maybe Tomas would have a more modern cut to his suit, but an established guy like Bill wouldn't go around looking like that lonely button on his jacket was ready to explode constantly.
    • I do think there's room for optimism, especially with Amazon making enough new episodes to last until December. There's still time for the various players to get their ducks in a row. Guess we'll know soon enough! 
    • I do agree it's better to just have people pop back into town. I never understood why Roger needed a mask on an island, when neither Fletcher or Alex would've known who he was. And the vine...sigh. Couldn't he have just been sent crashing through a window or something?
    • When the announcement was first made, I did wonder if other plans were in the works. I guess we can always keep hoping, especially as the show has a small core cast.
    • @chrismlAbout Lisa, agree to disagree. Actually at the time she was the only thing my partner & I disagreed about. Naturally she was Team Vicky while I was steadfast as Team Lisa.  About John & twin paternity, I think that like the 3 pillows was a transitory idea someone had that no one else agreed with. More of the attempt to accommodate Philece. About MJ, co-sign, 100% agree, if there were more degrees I would claim them. About Wally & Felicia, always a fan. Mitch? Eh, take or leave. Although I do agree that WGE is a really striking man. Who have I left out? I don't know so that's all I got.

    • Dallas peaked early, IMO. Maybe not a fair statement as I’m still making my way through the first half of its run, but I think it’s hard to argue to point that S3 into S4 was its high point. Back to Knots. Wrapping up “And Never Brought to Mind.” Greg’s introduction kinda took me by surprise. I low-key dreaded his arrival bc I know he very quickly gets to the center of the show, but even though they wasted no time connecting him with Mac, Abby, Gary, and Karen, it still feels like a gradual intro. The juxtaposition of the ending of the Chip story with the heating up Abby’s plotting is quite symbolic of the changes the show was going through. I absolutely cannot imagine Kenny and Ginger having any part in any of this. Yall, the Gary/Val piano theme that they pull out from time to time is my FAVORITE. I find myself humming it constantly.
