Word of farewell for Nip/Tuck show

Nip/Tuck is nearing to its end!!

John Landgraf, FX President has confirmed the above statement at the Television Association Summer Press Tour, Beverly Hilton. He said, “Nip/Tuck will come to a close in early 2011”.

19 additional episodes have been planned and including these special 19 episodes, series will end at a total of 100 episodes. When John was asked ‘why they decided to bring it to an end’, he replied “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.” I think, they must have thought that Nip/Tuck will lose its creativity and success, if it continues after the 100 episodes. Ultimately, they put it to an end.

Currently, the series is running with season 5 and 14 episodes of this season have already been aired. Remaining episodes are set to be aired in Jan, 2009. It’s also confirmed that the Show runner Ryan Murphy will remain through the end of the season. Nip/Tuck follows the lives of two Plastic surgeons Sean McNamara and Christian Troy.

Nip/Tuck has won a Golden Globe for best drama series in 2005 and has also got several Emmy nominations. Whatever they are doing with Nip/Tuck is quite similar to what they have decided for The Shield, which is entering its final season on the network.

So, finally Nip/Tuck is on the verge of ending, let’s see how this well-received drama wraps up the things!
