the show is now almost officially unwatchable. The first two seasons were great...the 3rd got out of control with the whole Carver storyline...but it was still good...but a little gimickey and drew away from what the first two seasons were really good at...I don't want to watch a CSI version of NipTuck. Anyway, now...with season 4, too much has happened, too much drama...the show is on overload. Sean has become unlikeable to the point where he's now just a disgusting person...his kids are officially screwed up for life...Julia is damaged goods, Liz is in then out all the time...same with Kimber,...Christain, I don't like what they've done with him...even though he is still the only reason to watch...he's unpredictable and perfectly acted. Overall I just don't get a realistic sense of time-lapse with each episode, nor is anything really ever resolved realistically anymore. I hope they can write themselves out of this hole...but like I said...its seriously becoming unwatchable.
