There is bad TV all OVER the place - I'm looking at you, A&E; since when is a show dedicated to "Hoarders" an art, or even a form of entertainment? But I must say that Nip/Tuck is the worst of all.
Why?
Because I actually watch it.
This is a show that managed to move to incestual, secretly trans-sexual relationships within its second season, which has flipped every character's sexual orientation at will, made a mime-murderer out of the once-Nazi son, and shot or killed...I think almost every person on the show.
Karla and I lost our Nip/Tuck virginity together our senior year in college, with a set of Netflix dvds she rented mostly as a joke. We were predicting every twist and turn. Not just the "oh god, now they're probably going to have animal sex" moments, but literally the lines - almost word for word - leading up to every bad cliche.
And yet, I watch. I Tivo it, even. I sit through the wooden acting, the ridiculous plotlines, the subpar dialogue...and I like it.
I'm watching an episode right now and just heard the line "you have to choose. The monkey, or me." And they were literally referring to a monkey.
But I have no one to blame but myself...
