Nip/Tuck is an Emmy and Golden Globe award-winning American television medical drama series created by Ryan Murphy for FX Networks. The show follows the lives of two plastic surgeons, Sean McNamara (Dylan Walsh) and Christian Troy (Julian McMahon). The show was set in Miami, Florida in Seasons 1 through to 4 but a plot-related development led to the show moving location to Los Angeles, California from Season 5 onwards. Although previously set in Miami, the show was never filmed there; moving the setting to LA has brought it in line with its place of production.
In its debut season, Nip/Tuck was the highest-rated new series on American basic cable, and the highest rated basic cable series of all time for the 18-49 and 25-54 age demographics. The fourth season of the series premiered on September 5, 2006 on FX Networks. The latest season to be released on DVD was the fourth on September 4, 2007. The fifth season premiered on October 30, 2007, and was to consist of 22 episodes, making it the longest season of the show yet, with Joely Richardson returning for 15 of those episodes. However, due to the WGA Writers Strike, the season was cut short to 14 episodes with a season finale airing on February 19, 2008. The show inspired the creation of the plastic surgery reality show Dr. 90210.
