SO while looking on the web to see when Season 6 would be starting I found some news that makes me really sad - Season 6 will be the final season of Nip/Tuck FOR GOOD!
They are splitting up the season like they did this year, it will be a combined 19 episodes to air between 2010-2011.
This was found on the Hollywood Reporter:
July 15, 2008 FX has ordered 19 additional episodes beyond the current 22-episode season that will mark the plastic surgery drama's final season. Asked why he decided to bring "Nip/Tuck" to an end, Landgraf said he doubts any FX drama would ever run beyond 100 episodes, saying that serialized dramas have a much different storytelling model than nonserialized shows such as "Law & Order" or "CSI."
This was found on a blog that is an extension of the Hollywood Reporter article:
The show will end its run with a total of 100 episodes in early 2011, with creator/executive producer Ryan Murphy signed on through the last episode.
That was one of several announcements that FX president/GM John Landgraf made Tuesday morning during the network's presentation at the Television Critics Assn. press tour at the Beverly Hilton.
Asked why he decided to bring "Nip/Tuck" to an end, Landgraf said he doubts any FX drama would ever run beyond 100 episodes, saying that serialized dramas have a much different storytelling model than nonserialized shows such as "Law & Order" or "CSI."
"If you tried to do 150 episodes of 'The Sopranos,' you would begin to diminish the quality of those shows," he said. "The David Chases ('Sopranos') and Shawn Ryans ('The Shield'), they're taking on social commentary and grand sweeping questions. If we want to go after that brass ring, we have to accept they have limited shelf life."
Landgraf also said the network's recent decision not to pick up Murphy's transsexual drama "Pretty/Handsome" was not related to Murphy's staying on with "Nip/Tuck."
I AM SO SAD & MAD! I guess Nip/Tuck will just have to live on through reruns hopefully. I do have to say I am still excited for the next season even though I have to wait about a year. I can't wait to see how they will end my favorite show EVER on T.V.
