On March 3, 2010, 'Nip/Tuck's' one hundredth episode, last in the series, became the most-watched scripted program in the history of the FX network.Īt the first glance FOX's The Mob Doctor's storyline looks much more goofy then its title. Never shy about taking-on controversial subjects, 'Nip/Tuck' won critical acclaim, Golden Globe and Emmy awards for its treatment of domestic violence, promiscuity, recreational drug use, and the risk of addiction to cosmetic surgery. Troy, 'the naughty one,' loves money and sex, and sometimes commits serious scalpel screw-ups. McNamara, 'the nice one,' struggles to keep his family together as they weather trials and tribulations that come as the complications of success. 'Nip/Tuck' centers on Sean McNamara and Christian Troy, successful plastic surgeons, originally practicing their science and art in Miami, but conveniently relocated to Los Angeles at the end of 'Nip/Tuck's' fourth season. Call it one of television's most credible attempts at realistic fiction: Ryan Murphy, 'Nip/Tuck's' producer, insists the medical conditions and procedures on which the episodes center 'are 100% based on fact.' Ironically, though, 'Nip/Tuck's' representation of the surgeon's private lives may impress ordinary viewers as the program's most faithful representation of real life people and events.
