"Nip/Tuck-The Complete Series" hits DVD store shelves November 2, 2010. For six amazing seasons Julian MacMahon and Dylan Walsh made viewers laugh, cry, and be anxious as we watched week after week the trials and tribulations that Christian and Sean got themselves embroiled in. Never before had television so graphically and intellectually dramatized people's infatuation with looking beautiful by "going under the knife". Christian and Sean were not only intelligent and gorgeous-looking doctors, but were real human beings who sometimes had more problems than their patients.
Ryan Murphy, the creator, writer, and executive producer of "Nip/Tuck" proved he was a total genius with this series. His writing was always entertaining, yet educational and some of the cases depicted were actually based on real-life people. It is no wonder that Ryan would go on to helping create another hit show with FOX's "Glee".
"Nip/Tuck" also had a supporting cast that was as good as the leads and included Kelly Carlson, John Hensley, and Joley Richardson. Some huge Hollywood names were added to the cast as the years progressed in guest-roles including Vanessa Redgrave, Rosie O'Donnell, Mario Lopez, Joan Rivers, and most importantly Sharon Gless who played a psycho, based on Annie Wiles, in the fifth season.
This wonderful box set includes all 100 widescreen episodes of the series, along with all the bonus features that were part of the individual sets. These bonuses are gag reels, deleted scenes, and featurettes. Unfortuantely, no new bonuses are included in this "complete set", but if you haven't bought any "Nip/Tuck" DVD's this is a great place to start: the pricing is very affordable.

I recently finished watching the entire series on DVD. At first I thought it was just a shock value show. But as I continued watching, I found it oddly addictive. Sure, the characters can be fairly despicable, but what they mostly do is illustrate human foibles. Lots of human foibles. Probably foibles each of us, in our most honest moments, would admit to sharing with the characters: jealousy, hatred, greediness, manipulativeness, and weaknesses of all sorts.
The nakedness did not shock me--I'm not prudish--though I did see more of Christian's and Sean's butts than I ever really wanted to. What was shocking and somehow riveting was the nakedness of their terribly human souls. And sometimes there was a truly beautiful sequence that touched me to the point of tears.
Altogether, the show is certainly worth watching if you are someone who can look beyond the occasionally gratuitous bit of nudity to find some meaning in the struggles these characters go through. And struggle they do--mostly with their own darkness.
I especially loved the show's finale with Art Garfunkel's hauntingly beautiful "All I Know" running through the background as the characters go on their separate way in life. I found myself hoping that maybe some day they would find a way to be at peace with themselves. Just as each of us does in our real lives.
