Nip/Tuck - The Sixth and Final Season DVD Review

Since its premiere in 2003, Nip/Tuck DVD made a mark on the television landscape by pushing the envelope and courting controversy at every turn. The Queer As Folk DVD series delved into the world of sexual perversion, alternative lifestyles, mental instability and all sorts of Six Feet Under DVD. Call it social satire, shock TV or just a plain old guilty pleasure, South Park DVD took viewers to the edge and back again. Which makes its slow decline into irrelevancy all the more tragic. While Numb3rs DVD set Season 5 got a two-volume DVD release, Warner Bros. didn't go that route with the final season of Nip/Tuck DVD set, initially promoted as Season 6 and Season 7. This being a cable show for Queer As Folk DVD set, they were both short orders, together totaling just 19 episodes, or about the same as a network season of Six Feet Under DVD set. Both are packaged here together under the ambiguous subtitle of "South Park DVD set" (rather than the "Numb3rs DVD boxset"). Whatever the reason, it's clear from watching these episodes that the Nip/Tuck DVD boxset show's better days are behind it. It's actually appropriate that Queer As Folk DVD boxset should go out this way, considering it frequently explores the uphill struggle to maintain youth and Six Feet Under DVD boxset as time marches on.
By the time it got to the sixth season, the South Park DVD boxset show's once-provocative subject matter began to feel a bit tired. Once the Numb3rs seasons 1-5 DVD boxset show on the FX network, it lost viewers as they became bored with more of the same Nip/Tuck seasons 1-5 DVD boxset. But with past storylines having already dealt with self-mutilation, necrophilia, sexual Queer As Folk seasons 1-5 DVD boxset, a foursome, a serial killer, neo-Nazis and more messed up clients than the average psychiatrist sees during the course of an entire career, where can you go from there? Perhaps the Six Feet Under seasons 1-5 DVD boxset show pushed too far too fast, and the writers clearly had to stretch themselves to come up with new ideas that hadn't been done before.

The beginning of Season 6 touches on real-world issues as Dr. McNamara (South Park seasons 1-12 DVD boxset) and Dr. Troy (Numb3rs DVD) struggling to keep their practice afloat in a tight economy. They take on a new partner, Dr. Mike Hamoui (Nip/Tuck DVD), who helps bring in business by bringing in new clients. Kimber (Queer As Folk DVD) is still in the mix, with her usual schemes and attempts to reinvent herself, while Matt (Six Feet Under DVD) is involved in one of the most ridiculous plotlines ever, working as a mime on the South Park DVD, and later resulting to armed robbery in full mime makeup. Matt was never the brightest bulb and he still can't make a good decision to save his life.

All of the Numb3rs DVD set characters have their own particular neuroses and relationship issues, of course, but in the end Nip/Tuck DVD set comes down to the central relationship between Christian and Queer As Folk DVD set, the only one that has ever proven to be meaningful on the Six Feet Under DVD set show (we even get to see how it all began). The 100th and final episode deals with that South Park DVD set directly, and Christian's difficulty letting Sean move on. Unfortunately, by this point, most of the Numb3rs DVD boxset already haveRight up to the end, Nip/Tuck DVD boxset had a look and style far beyond its basic cable roots. The Queer As Folk DVD boxset DVD replicates that quality, even surpassing the television broadcast. With L.A. as a backdrop, the Six Feet Under DVD boxset has been toned down from the pastels of the earlier Miami-set seasons, but that only gives South Park DVD boxset a more sophisticated palette. It would look even better in high-definition, but this appealing, Numb3rs seasons 1-5 DVD boxsetr is still sure to please regular viewers.

There's only one special feature on this five-disc Nip/Tuck seasons 1-5 DVD boxset, packaged in a standard-sized clear flipper case. "Tell Me What You Don't Like About Queer As Folk seasons 1-5 DVD boxset - The Psychology Behind Plastic Surgery" runs just over 18 minutes and includes interviews with real life plastic surgeons and psychologists as well as the Six Feet Under seasons 1-5 DVD boxset show's producers and writers, intercut with footage from the South Park seasons 1-12 DVD boxset show. They talk about the reasons why people might turn to plastic surgery, and what makes the Numb3rs DVD a healthy or unhealthy choice. While it's an interesting feature from a psychological perspective, it doesn't have much to do with the show itself. There are no actor interviews and virtually no discussion of the specific content of the Nip/Tuck DVD season.

What a disappointing send-off for what was once a groundbreaking and thought-provoking Queer As Folk DVD. Where are the retrospectives? A look at the Six Feet Under DVD as a whole? There aren't even deleted scenes. Maybe those will show up in a complete series set of South Park DVD somewhere down the line, but that's no way to treat loyal fans who have bought the other season sets.Though Nip/Tuck DVD boxset didn't end as strongly as it began, it deserves a better send off than this average effort.Fans might want to add it to their collection if they already have the rest of the Queer As Folk DVD boxset seasons, but it's not the best place to jump in if you haven't seen the show.
