Nip/Tuck/Nosleep

Word to the wise: Do not watch Nip/Tuck right before you go to sleep.

Although I've only seen half episodes here and there, and only moderately enjoyed them, I happened to watch the entire 2 hour season finale last night. Things witnessed during these two hours:

- Multiple instances of rape.
- Live burial.
- Removal of fingers, limbs, etc.
- Torture. Lots of torture.
- Many murders.
- Graphic surgery, at least once every 15 minutes or so.
- Incest.
- An eel being birthed from a woman's vagina.

Oh, and everybody got away with everything, and was totally happy at the end; even though something was so wrong with one of the character's babies that a doctor started crying and trembling when she had to tell her. But we'll find out what's wrong with the baby NEXT season. When they rape and disfigure it. For eight hours. Or something.

Whatever, I don't write the show; it just gives me nightmares.
