Nip/Tuck will end its run in early 2011. I was so glad to read this. I know tv shows eventually end their run so at least I have until 2011 to enjoy the show.
FX network having been, its president boasts, a groundbreaker in developing high-quality scripted basic-cable series, it will now become a trailblazer in killing off high-quality scripted basic-cable series. To that end, “Nip/Tuck” will end its run in early 2011 and “The Shield” begins its swan-song season in September, FX execs announced Tuesday.
To wrap up “Nip/Tuck,” FX has ordered 19 more episodes beyond the 22 episodes for the current season. It’s also ordered 39 episodes of its comedy series “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia,” which should get it into at least 2011, FX prez John Landgraf told TV critics at Thank God We’re Still Working Summer TV Press Tour 2008.
“One of the reasons you see us announcing the end of ‘The Shield’ well in advance . . . and announcing now that ‘Nip/Tuck’ is going to end in three years is we’re publicly challenging ourselves and saying we’re not going to wait until the light is blinking red,” Landgraf said.
I love this show even though last season was somewhat blah. I really didn’t get into Nip/Tuck until the middle of season 3 with the Carver storyline. That’s why I have seasons 1, 2 and 3 in my Netflix queue right now. I’ve been on a Tv on dvd roll with Netflix lately. Right now I’m watching season 1 of Gilmore Girls. Before that I watched all three seasons of What’s Happening!!
