This series is set in the flashy world of South Beach, Miami, where looking good is a full-time profession. Sean McNamara (Dylan Walsh) and Christian Troy (Julian McMahon) are plastic surgeons. Sean is married to Julia (Joely Richardson) and has a conscience when it comes to his job, while Christian is willing to lie to get a woman into bed and onto the surgery table. Although they've been partners for years, their opposing ethical stances, as well as Christian's desire for Julia, keep the dramatic tension bristling. Contains all thirteen episodes from the show's first series.

"...Confident, infectious drama that balances the gross-out glamour of plastic surgery with a Miami slice of married life..."
"...Sexy, stylish, funny and clever, all the things you want from a show..."
Compelling viewing from start to finish. Christian and Sean bungle their way through the world of plastic surgery and provide interesting viewing along the way! They lurch from one crisis to another with Sean being the straight hard thinker and Christian the womanising oh so sexy eye candy. Filmed in glamourous settings, including the OR, sharp suits and sexy stars with gritty realism in the shots of the plastic surgery. A real must for all drama fans
Nip/Tuck is a welcome break from the current crop of Series coming out of America. For a start LAW is not a central issue (quite the opposite sometimes) so it's not based around police and lawyers. Now on to what it IS... The Series is based on two old school friends (Sean and Christian) who went through Uni together and started a small private plastic surgery in Miami. The lives of these two are the central focus of the show, but many of the lives of the secondary characters around them are also part of the show as well.
The troubles of the two really start when Sean who is a more by the book kind of guy suffers a mid life crisis, Disillusioned with world of plastic surgery he wants to start doing pro bono work (basically free or heavily subsidised). His marriage to Julie is starting to fall apart and his son Matt is showing him little respect. This does not hold well with Christian who quite opposite to Sean is an amoral character into money, fast cars and women (very attractive women at that). But all is not well in Christians world either, he wants the only women he cant have (Ill let you guess who), his new girlfriend isnt altogether stable and hes beginning to take on very questionable work from very questionable people.
Watch it to find out more ;) Enjoy.
