Amazon.com: Fans seem of two minds in regard to the Emmy-winning medical drama Nip/Tuck's fourth season, which arrives on DVD in a five-disc set. On one hand, much of the negative press seems to center around the 2006 season's more outlandish storylines, which seem to hew closer to the controversial "Carver" arc than the first season's blend of shock and substance; the curious highlights include an episode set some decades in the future ("Conor McNamara, 2026"), Jacqueline Bisset's madame-turned-organ thief, and Catherine Deneuve as a wealthy Miami mistress who wants her affair's ashes inserted into her silicone breasts ("Diana Lubey"). But on the other, the arrival of Julia (Joely Richardson) and Sean's (Dylan Walsh) baby Conor, and the trauma that surrounds it, the violent conclusion of the Escobar Gallardo storyline, and the addition (and return) of such memorable guests as Peter Dinklage, Larry Hagman, Brooke Shields, and Rosie O'Donnell, help to keep the show's fascinating trademark blend of sudsy shenanigans and keen psychological drama intact. Whether one loves or hates the four season of Nip/Tuck, there's no denying that there's still more offbeat, disturbing and engrossing action at the offices of McNamara-Troy than most other television series. The Fourth Season DVD set includes all fifteen episodes from the season, as well as deleted scenes from several episodes, a gag reel centered around Julian McMahon, and short but intriguing featurettes devoted to the real surgical procedures shown on the program and the exceptional guest cast. All are light on information (save the surgery extra) and strong on flash and talking heads, but fans should find them an agreeable chaser after watching the full season. -- Paul Gaita
Just unique in every way. Love it or hate it, "Nip Tuck" cannot be ignored and season four is one of this series' best seasons (probably just pipped at the post by season two and miles ahead of the Carver dominated season 3) The level of adventurous (if at times idiotic) incidents in this series is unparalleled . "Nip Tuck" just take risks, the actors take risks, the guests take risks , does Julian McMahon , incidentally, have it in his contract that he has to bear his butt at least ten times in any one season???????
It's all nonsense of course, but such believable nonsense and when, every so often (as in the scene between Dylan and the tramp) it touches on some real emotional truths, the result is gut wrenching.This series will go down in history as one of unique bravery and what a high camp joy to have people of the ilk of Larry Hagman, Jacqueline Bisset, Kathleen Turner, Brooke Shields and Rosie O Donnell (best film work she has ever done and the funniest ) and of course Catherine Deneuve in one season. A wild, wacky, wonderful ride, dont miss it. Shame Season 5 is incomplete and this may stop its release on DVD till the unscreeened eps hit the US airwaves in early 09.
Fantastic series! Season 4 is just as good as the previous four! If you are a Nip/Tuck fan, you must get this season. Lots of surprises and "OMG" moments. I cannot wait for Season 5 to be available!
THE WRITERS ARE EXCELLENT! ALWAYS A NEW TWIST, EACH YEAR BETTER THAN THE LAST. I CAN'T WAIT FOR SEASONS 5 AND 6!
I've lost that loving feeling! Oh BOY...how can a show that I love change in mere Seasons? I vowed last season that I would not watch anymore unless the writing improved. But oh boy, things have only gotten worse. A show that use to capitalize on grit and glamour, now appears to merely be trying to cover-up bad writing with sex and frankly more sex. I decided to just catch up on the entire season, give the show another chance, and hoped for the best. Unfortunately, I had trouble stomaching it. It was just too much. Storylines involving birth defects and organ thefts, and other issues have finally made me reconsider watching the show. The only redeeming value for the show was the return of the tattooed man. It appears that a show about the superficial has become just that. Perhaps a return to those original thoughts and ideas for the show will bring new life into the series. I guess the ultimate question is "Will I give Season 5 a chance"? Probably not unless someone tells me that the old fire is back. Unfortunately, Nip/Tuck may have lost a die hard fan unless some real changes occur.
Good service. Got to my house fast and in good condition. I really enjoyed the shows!
