She uglied up impressively for the scenes in which the disfiguring work of "The Carver" was repaired by the plastic surgeon played by Julian McMahon. "Oh, good. I was suppose to!" said Carlson, who was in the metro visiting family and friends for the holiday.

She explained that the makeup and a skull cap helped her pull off looking especially mangy about the head.

"It was great," she said. "It took three hours to put all that makeup on. I would just fall asleep. My writers did me a big favor by doing that. I think it was intentional. They said, No one will be able to say you're on this show because you're pretty and you can't act. It was a really nice thing for them to do." Nicole Kidman got an Oscar out of a fake nose and some good acting.

It's hoped that "Nip/Tuck" is finished with butcher story lines, although "The Carver" finale was popular. E! News' Joal Ryan reported that a record was set for an original F/X series with 5.7 million viewers.
