Tell Me What I Don't Like About NIP/TUCK

The Carrot:
If you saw Nip/Tuck's season premiere last night, you know exactly what this photo is all about. If you didn't see it, examine the photo carefully. There are 3 Ways you can look at it. Three. Tres. Trois. Trois. Trois.

The Truth:
Nip/Tuck is one of the best shows on television, now or ever. It's clever, provocative and the writing is unmatched. Set in the shallow glamour of Miami beach, the lives of two plastic surgereons are revealed through fearless story telling, high style (the likes of which I haven't seen since Miami Vice), and there isn't a shallow moment to be found, even amongst all that silicone. Every critic and their brother praises Nip/Tuck, how it's "sexy" and "cutting edge" and "jaw-dropping." I call it tight TV. There's no fat in Nip/Tuck. It's perfect. Ryan Murphy, the Creator/Director, is a friggin' genius and I cannot wait to see his big screen version of Augusten Burroughs' "Running With Scissors."
