Nip/Tuck Season Three Thread - Anyone Watching? **May Contain Spoilers**

i think i get it............ they're both the carver?

That swerve was still pretty weak. I can't help but feel like it was a cop out to not deliver someone who was around before this season. Ah well, I still think it's a great show which is entitled to a dud or two every now and then like this one.

I was hoping his sister would be Ava.

as soon as Sean made that comment about the cuts on Quentin being sloppy I pretty much knew it was gonna end up being him with someone helping him.

A bit of a letdown....but quite frankly with so much build up it would have taken something really big to live up to it.

I was thinking it was Gina at first too when Kit said she made the 911 call

Quentin was the only real choice from the start.

Julia is too frail and emotional.

Sean & Christian are the main characters of the show, and generally don't make sense. Sean helped the FBI with the Witness Protection Agency, and Christian is very vain.

Matt has his own storyline arch going, and this thing will continue into Season 4.

Gina and Liz... who gives a fuck about them, really?

Quentin was the logical choice from the start. It was the most obvious for a reason. For you to think it was someone else and then *BAM*. It's Quentin all along. And the female cop too.

It's an obvious swerve (except for the cop being in on it, IMO), but it's genius to me. Made you think it was someone else when the real Carver was underneath your nose the whole time because it was so obvious.

I knew something was up when the cop started to talk about the sister. But that was a good twist on the Carver.

It sucks because I saw the photo of them together released/leaked by FX two days ago: http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c342/bol...ver_collage.jpg

the second half was the worst nip tuck episode ever, it sucked hard.

i said before it would suck if theyed pulll a scream, they did

i said it would not make anysens to have quentin be the carver and they needed to put one hell of a bullshit story out of their asses.

i said it was the lady cop but the way they explained it it makes even less sens because now she looks like the weak link in the duo

it should have been split personalety kimber, they could have keept her around in a silence of the lambs kind of way screwing with christians head or something.

[punky]

I thought the season finale was a little disappointing but that's just because I expected it to be Julia or Kimber instead of Quentin. I didn't think it was horrible or anything though. Looking forward to Season 4 to see what they'll do with the storylines like Christian not being able to have Kimber, Sean/Julia getting back together, if Ariel comes back and what happens with Matt.

I got Season 1 a few weeks ago and finally finished it up the other day. I thought it was a damn good season, confirming that the show was awesome before this past season. I'll definately pick up Season 2 after Christmas and just hope that it was as good as Seasons 1 & 3.

[ACCBiggz]

Punk, Seasons One and Two are above and beyond what season three was.

Season three was decent, but as mentioned before, it just lacked a bit because it was providing a story arch over the entire season about the carver. Hopefully season four will be just as good as the rest.

Hola from Spain, or is it bom dia from Lisbon, or is it ni hao from Beijing, or is it guten tag from Berlin, or is it bon jour from Paris, or shalom from Tel Aviv? We really could be anywhere couldn’t we? And that’s the point, isn’t it? Not the messenger or the language he speaks or the city he lives in or if there are two or three or a thousand of us – it’s the message. True beauty is not a curse on the world. True beauty radiates from a leper’s hope or a victim’s resistance. True beauty does not exist in the symmetry of a face or the flatness of a belly. True beauty lives in the musk of sweat that forms after a good hard screw. True beauty is raw, ugly, human. True beauty throws up on your shoes. True beauty’s eyes are bloodshot from being up all night fighting. True Beauty leaves a scar. True beauty hurts to look at – because it reminds us how ugly we all are. It holds a mirror up to our mediocrity; our need to blend in, to conform, to believe in the craven imagery sold to us at the checkout line in the supermarket. We hunger for True Beauty because we are feeding ourselves with dust to fill our need. We are gorging ourselves at the buffet table of illusion and wondering why we never feel full, never feel satisfied, never feel beautiful. Turn away from the mirage and feed with me. Put down your Us Weekly and turn off your “E!” -- they are the Devil’s banquet. Yes, my methods are extreme, but my message is not. How I communicate what I believe isn’t for everyone – in fact it isn’t for anyone but me – but what I am saying is universal.

For those that see my true identity as some kind of disappointment, a let down, I ask – who did you think I was? I am the Carver, I have always been the Carver, I was never anything but the Carver. You knew that. Who I was behind the mask was never important. It was what I did when the mask was on that mattered. Like a great knight, it was what I stood for when I donned my armor that made the difference. Yes, it was important to me that everyone knew that I wasn’t some lunatic, some uneducated psychotic with nothing but rage and revenge as my guides -- that I wasn’t being controlled by the neighbor’s dog or compelled by the Devil. But at the end of the day, it was never about who was doing it, it was about what was being done. I am simply the one that was chosen to be given the gift of enlightenment -- just as Siddhartha, Mohammed, Abraham and Jesus were all just men, chosen for reasons unknown to them to deliver the word of God. Do not focus on the “who”, focus on the “why.” The “who” is a distraction. The “who” helps us forget the lie that the “why” is trying to destroy. It makes us think that because someone has pretty eyes what they say is important and because someone has no teeth they are a rambling idiot – even if both are saying the exact same thing.

Kit and I will always be out here, somewhere, maybe on the other side of the world, maybe hiding in your closet. Where ever we go, though, we will be bringing our message of True Beauty and confronting those that resist it. I might even pop in here every now and then to give my good friends a personal hello, maybe explain a few things. It has been a pleasure “educating” all of you. Let’s do it again sometime soon. Just leave your back doors open for sis and me. We’ll be over as soon as we can…

Until we meet again, my beauties…
