Nip/Tuck: Season 4

I loved the entire Nip and Tuck series. (Every year) I did not think it would be as good as it turned out to be. It WAS BETTER than I expected.. It had a little bit of everything, drama, comedy, interesting characters that you could actually like and others dislike. I learned a lot of things from the each Nip and Tuck show. There was a life lesson to be learned woven into each segment. Well worth watching for adults. I would not recommend for children.

Season 4 was a great comeback to S3 leaving off the whole Carver story but still lingers the convict Escogobar. Christrian finally falls in love this time with the much under-rated Sanaa Lathan as Michelle and much turmoil succeeds because of it. Matt finally grows up but still fails at his worst with women. Sean and Julia can't seem to make things work no matter what and you so want them to due to the birth of Connor. Corruptness, many things that are illegal and much inner speculating of the 2 Dr's biggest things on everybodys mind "are they gay". This season also spouts the popular Mario Lopez shower scene and that chic from MTV Idalis surprises everyone w/her acting ability. Season 4 probably has the BEST guest stars, such as Larry Hagman, Alanis Morriset, Kathleen Turner, Melissa Gilbert, Mario Lopez, Monique, and former supermodels Jacqueline Bessit and Brooke Shields. Sex, drugs, lipo, homo-erotica, and murder mayhem all fit perfectly into Season 4.

While perhaps not up to par with its preceding seasons, Nip/Tuck's 4th still delivers the goods - sex, violence, drama. The Blu-ray set looks stunning with some really vibrant colours and above average audio. Short review conclusion: if you are a fan of the show, this is a no-brain purchase. ***** Important note about other reviews ***** A lot of low rating reviews on here are people claiming they cannot get their movie players to play the discs - disregard these ratings as these people are clueless as to what the difference is between DVD and HD DVD (THEY ARE NOT THE SAME!). They took out their frustration on the product itself instead of doing some research beforehand and instead blindly ordered something they are not familiar with.

You know a season is completely nuts when one of the most sane plot points is about an Organ Harvesting Ring!! This show is SO deliriously over the top...I just had a blast. Watching it, my wife and I often found ourselves just looking at each other and shaking our heads in disbelief. Can you imagine that if people in "real life" had to endure what Sean, Christian and company had to endure, they'd have long since died of strokes or heart attacks or just plain stress! The show makes the machinations in everything from DALLAS to DYNASTY to SIX FEET UNDER look like perfectly normal, even boring occurences. I love this show because it not only doesn't fear being outrageous, it THRIVES on it. Dylan Walsh and Julian McMahon have the perfect blend of well-rooted and skillful acting, with just a dash of over-the-top over-acting. Not for one minute is the show "believable," but it draws us in nonetheless, thanks in large part to the skill of the two main actors. They are a joy to watch, both as characters and performers. I particulary like Christian Troy. Never more than in this season have we seen his blend of totally self-serving boorishness (and cruelty) peppered with true, honest feelings. He has a new love in this season, and theirs is a complicated relationship that you root for...even though you know it probably won't go well. Meanwhile, Sean McNamara and his wife Julie are expecting a child, whom they discover has a very rare birth defect, and they must grapple with the preparations for that, and then the aftermath of the birth. This is actually fairly touching and when little Connor arrives, we truly feel for a darling little baby saddled with such a horrible defect. But in true NIP/TUCK form, into this fairly credible development comes a nanny in the form of a "little person" (Peter Dinklage, who is always very good) with an agenda. Leave it to NIP/TUCK!!! So, it's mostly good. The camoes this year were particularly delightful, from a droll Larry Hagman, to an evil Jacqueline Bisset to a hilarious Rosie O'Donnell (whom I usually HATE...but I have to give her props here for a funny and touching and bawdy performance). Alannis Morrisette was okay in her role as a new love for Liz (the wonderful Roma Maffia.) But I continue to absolutely HATE both the character of Matt McNamara and the actor who plays him. He's totally unlikeable and I believe still needs to be in prison for the hit and run he got away with years ago. But John Hensley, who plays him, continues to irritate most terribly. He's not a good actor, and frankly, he's almost impossible to look at. I still wonder who thought to cast this guy!! Nearly as annoying is Joely Richardson, a good actress whose character is just so terribly unlikeable. But Christian Troy is an unlikeable character that viewers adore. Julia is an unlikeable character that viewers just don't like. But overall, the show is great!!! I enjoy every episode (even the strange "futuristic" show set in 2026), and gladly spend my time with McNamara/Troy. The main reason the show gets only 4 stars is that Matt McNamara/John Hensley causes me to drop an entire star. If you've never seen the show before...by all means do. But you must start with Season One. It's well worth the effort to see them all!!

This is a very entertaining adult TV show. The plots by season 4 are not quite as compelling as season one, but still good. Some scenes, though not real I'm sure, are not for the squeamish at heart. Characters are fun dealing with the rich clients that need a Nip and Tuck here and there, or total makeover. I don't think it matters that much if you missed the high jinks from other seasons. Most episodes are a fairly standalone within a certain season though. Try it out. Many times a comical or horrific view of life in the lucrative world of plastic surgery.

The delivery time was good, and the product was what it said it was. But be careful when you buy a DVD. I wasn't aware that an HD was a different format and cannot be played in a regular DVD player. Of course I am older and probably not as up on some of the new technology as I should be. The seller said that I could return it for a full refund if I would like.

What's next. Can't stop watching.

The first disc. I was able to watch the first episode and most of the second then it went black and wouldnt do anything else.. the second disk. Finally played one episode..the 3rd disc wont play at all and i haven't checked the others yet. I'm very frustrated. Thought these were new dvds...well even at that i thrift dvds and I've never had this happen

Confezione ,qualità audio e video perfetta.

Los DVDs no son en español. Yo no no hablo ni entiendo inglés, francés ni otros idiomas. Por la cual cosa lo he devuelto. En la descripción los DVDs de películas o TV series, tendrías que indicar los idiomas en que están los DVDs.
