Nip/Tuck: Allegra Caldarello Chat
Well, here we are closing in on the end of Season 5 (Part 2). It's nice to see Liz have an episode dedicated to her. I thought she was great. It was also a nice touch to have Lizzie's surgery be Christian's last.
I am starting to see how this is going to hurt Sean (and now Liz) and it has to make you feel bad as a fan of the show. I know a lot of the feedback is that Christian won't die and that there is a plot or foulup causing a huge mixup. I honestly do think that his character will die as we close in on the end of the show. My gut feeling is that this is drawn out into Season 6, Part 1 and ultimately ends with Part 2 showing how Sean is able to cope. I could easily see Sean having visions of Christian or using Christian in a ghost-like manner like they did with Escobar.
While there was a lot of doom and gloom in this episode, you have got to love the nutty doctor, Logan Taper! I have no idea what sexual disorder he had but it was hysterical!!! You had this weird feeling that he admired Christian's taste in furniture a bit too much but I had no idea it was leading to that! I am still getting a laugh at how he spread the couch pillows apart and left the slightest crack between them.... OMFG!!! Of course, it can't just end there... Christian is getting his furniture professionally cleaned when Logan comes back because he forgot some of his things. The real reason of course is to have a repeat performance with surgery table! For those that haven't seen the episode, this alone is worth the laugh!
Liz finally stood up to her mom and Christian made her feel like a million bucks by getting her a brand new dress to wear on her wedding day. I think this was the first episode ever where Christian wasnt a smart ass! ;) Liz tells her mom that she is not invited to the wedding.
All of this chaos was going on at the same time an old friend came back to the show. Allegra Caldarello returned... you remember her right? "Put pussylips back on the schedule!" That had to be one of the classic lines of all time in Nip/Tuck. Allegra was in for some additional surgery. In turns out her husband is terminal as well and wants to make sure she is able to find a new man to take care of her and provide for her. He doesnt go about it in the best way, much like the way Christian forced Logan on Sean but it works out in the end.... much like it will for Sean.
The show closes with Sean looking at old movie clips of himself along with Christian and Julia when Teddy comes in. Sean admits to feeling as though he is losing everyone when Teddy promises Sean that he wont lose her.

Nip/Tuck: Budi Sabri Chat
Is Christian really going to die in 6 months??? I think everyone in the world thought it would have just been a quick follow-up. Nice twist by the writers. As many of you read in my last post, I think Nip/Tuck is heading toward a very dark ending. I think it is pretty refreshing actually and really the premise of the show. No matter how much you cover up the ugliness, the true color is still there.
You have to love everytime Sean gets to let loose. It's so unexpected each and every time! He basically becomes Christian for a short time until he basically looks himself in the mirror and says "what am I doing?"
I thought Christian and Liz's moment was pretty genuine. While I dont think they're a match made in heaven, I think the writers did a great job in laying the ground work by using Budi Sabri's chat with Christian to say that he just wants a woman who accepts him for who he is with all his flaws.
Sean will always be by Christian's side. I just wonder what will happen to Sean if Christian does die. I think they both need each other more than anyone.

"Digeridoo" Aphex Twin
"The Curlew" Craicmoe
"Resonate The Head" Charley McMahon

Nip/Tuck Getting Darker - Happy Ending Doubtful...
I thought the last two episodes were pretty good. Nip/Tuck has always been dark and ugly. It's never been a feel good story except knowing that Sean and Christian will always be friends and never let anything between them.
I think it's interesting how every character is just going down a darker and darker path. Each character is spiraling downward in their own way.
Kimber is as obsessed and self-motivated as she's ever been.
Christian is as reckless as ever and really has no future other than to live in the present.
Liz is still confused about her own sexuality.
Matt hasnt figured out what he wants to do when he grows up.
Julia is suffering.... as always but this time over Olivia's death.
Sean still is looking to let loose one way or another but feel as confined as ever. Can't wait to see him let loose next week!
I cant say I ever expected this crazy group of characters to have a happy ending... ;)
