Youth N Asia Posted September 20, 2005 Report Posted September 20, 2005 WHOO! Finally! Finally! Finally! After a great season 2 from Rescue Me, we get season 3 of Nip/Tuck. Season 2 ended with Ava leaving the country, Sean's marriage still on the rocks, and Dr. Christian Troy getting slashed up by The Carver. Can't effing wait for season 3. Tuesday nights, 10pm, FX, bitches!
BlackFlagg Posted September 20, 2005 Report Posted September 20, 2005 Can't friggin wait, the teaser promo has been driving me nuts the last few weeks but tomorrow it will finally be here!
Black Lushus Posted September 20, 2005 Report Posted September 20, 2005 yeah, I saw the teaser for the first time yesterday...I know Troy isn't dead, but they sure do make it look like he's dead...can't wait til tonight!
TSA09 Posted September 20, 2005 Report Posted September 20, 2005 From what I have read about Season 3 is the whole season revolves around The Carver. In the last episode of the season we will find out who The Carver is and from what the creator said it is someone we know. Just from reading the notes, it seems to be a good looking season with alot more sex.
Black Lushus Posted September 20, 2005 Report Posted September 20, 2005 The Carver is certainly one of the creepier characters I've seen in a television series...the fact that someone like that could realistically exist doesn't calm the creeps...so when do we start predicting who it will be? It's probably something stupid like Matt (Sean's "son")...
Youth N Asia Posted September 20, 2005 Author Report Posted September 20, 2005 I don't think the Carver will be anyone who've seen so far.
Black Lushus Posted September 20, 2005 Report Posted September 20, 2005 probably the guy replacing Troy at the office...
Guest *KNK* Posted September 20, 2005 Report Posted September 20, 2005 This is one of those shows that I've only seen like 4 episodes of its entire run and yet I liked all 4 of those shows. Im going to make an attempt to follow the whole season from start to finish. Although Im certain I'll be tremendously lost. I'll likely purchase the DVD's sometime this month to catch up.
Guest El Satanico Posted September 20, 2005 Report Posted September 20, 2005 You'll be way lost, but still should enjoy it
Guest JMA Posted September 20, 2005 Report Posted September 20, 2005 I'm greatly looking forward to this. Nip/Tuck is one of my favorite shows and the only FX drama that I watch. As for the Carver's identity, I'm saying it's Dr. Santiago.
TSA09 Posted September 20, 2005 Report Posted September 20, 2005 Well according to the writer/creator of the show it is a main character that we have seen before. It is being held so closely that last season the only person to know was the writer/creator. Now the entire writing staff knows but is under strict orders not to disclose The Carver. It is very protected that even the actors are not aware of it. They are only given the script they will need that week and nothing more. I believe it's either Matt or Ava. Ava will also be back. Julia opens up a store with Liz and Gina.

Black Lushus Posted September 20, 2005 Report Posted September 20, 2005 yeah Matt is where my money is...or maybe the kid Julia was almost boinking from her college class...
Guest Y2DAYDAY Posted September 21, 2005 Report Posted September 21, 2005 Realistically, it can be anybody except Sean or Christian for obvious reasons. It could be Escobar. They did the scenes in the Season 2 finale with Escobar telling Sean to take down the Carver. It would make sense. It could be Matt but doesn't really make any sense. It could be the new Dr. but that seems too obvious. However, I can't see that partnership lasting so who knows. It could me Merrill but again, sort of too obvious. Someone said Dr. Santiago. That is a reach as the character has been done for since season 1. Who knows though? The female suspects that could have raped Christian with a strap-on are Julia, Kimber(too obvious), Gine(unlikely), Ava(doubtful as they don't even know if they can get her to return), or Liz. Liz would be a great swerve that would make sense. Point is the possibilities are endless and it can go a million directions. Should be a great reveal.
Chazz Posted September 21, 2005 Report Posted September 21, 2005 Isn't Escobar supposed to be In Prison?
Black Lushus Posted September 21, 2005 Report Posted September 21, 2005 Yeah, last we saw Escobar, he was pinched by the feds at the airport. Sean and Christian changed his looks, as requested, but they made him look like #2 on the FBI's most wanted list...Escobar as the carver wouldn't make sense anyway, that's not the kind of person he is. He wouldn't do this serial, behind a mask shit, he'd just straight up do it... it's gotta be the kid Julia has been screwing around with for 3 seasons now...remember, he was once scorned by Sean when he tried to intern at his office...plus he strikes me as the type who likes fucking guys up the ass as well as chicks... man, it was hard to watch last night's show...it's amazing how realistic their surgery scenes look...oh and when will Miami realize that these two guys should NOT be brought in for extreme cases? How many people have they lost now? The fat chick, those cojoined twins...who else?

Liz would be a great swerve that would make sense. Point is the possibilities are endless and it can go a million directions. Should be a great reveal. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Didn't Merril commit suicide? That was the whole show when he was injecting the hispanics with BoboTox and he had Christian on the table strapped down. He cut Christian on the forehead and then looked in the mirror and said goodbye to himself and I could have sworn he killed himself with Christian still tied to the table. Ava is returning from what the writer/creator said. Her character was a hit and she will be back for Seaon 3.
Black Lushus Posted September 21, 2005 Report Posted September 21, 2005 Well, didn't the season preview even show her coming back and hooking up with Matt?
Ripper Posted September 21, 2005 Report Posted September 21, 2005 You know. the Threeway was just to far fetched. Really. It brought down the whole show. It seemed like it was written by a porn writer. I expect better from this show. I was expecting him to wake up any moment and have them sandwich the show with dream sequences, but when it didn't, I was just dissappointed. The rest of the show was quite good though.
Black Lushus Posted September 21, 2005 Report Posted September 21, 2005 I agree, that was a little too left field for me, even coming from this show...oh and seeing Christian get buttplugged was a bit much as well, BUT at least that was essential to the story...
Special K Posted September 21, 2005 Report Posted September 21, 2005 I agree on the threeway. I was expecting the detective to seduce him into admitting the truth, but when they just started going at it I had to roll my eyes. I know it's ordained that he has to get it on with every female character besides Liz (who he managed to impregnate anyway) and the lady with breast cancer Sean was seeing (and of course he probably would have had she not died.), but it was pretty ridiculous. I doubt the carver's Ava. It showed her in the airport about to get on her plane. If she is the carver, that's one of those stupid scenes that's in there exclusively to fool the audience. I hate these types of things (I'm looking at YOU M. Night Schalamalama) and I would hope they're above it. The only thing I'd bank on is the Carver being a woman.
Guest El Satanico Posted September 21, 2005 Report Posted September 21, 2005 The most obvious suspects become the least obvious, because everyone thinks "naaah it can't be that obvious". At this point, I'm saying it's Julia. This could change depending on how her character and relationship with Sean progresses this season. If she remains distant with no interest in being with Sean, she's my Carver.
Guest bigboneramon Posted September 21, 2005 Report Posted September 21, 2005 As for the Carver's identity, I'm saying it's Dr. Santiago. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> She was on my list of possibilties but that means that she would have used a strap on. further more what would be the use of using a condom if your using a strap on. I don't think its dr. costa cuz he was in atlanta during the initial attacks My money is on Jude
Ripper Posted September 21, 2005 Report Posted September 21, 2005 The condom was used to throw off the viewer and Christian. Not one of those annoying "there was no other point of that but to throw off the viewer" type of ways but it actually made plenty of sense for the Carver, who is definately a woman if you ask me, to lead Christian to believe that she is a man, thus making her harder to catch.
LJSexay Posted September 21, 2005 Report Posted September 21, 2005 never thought about Dr. Santiago. random tangent: why did she leave the show? She was hot..
Guest bigboneramon Posted September 21, 2005 Report Posted September 21, 2005 who is definately a woman if you ask me, to lead Christian to believe that she is a man, thus making her harder to catch. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> So if this is true then the carver is using a "accessory" to rape the victims. I also think that while jude is a good candidate he also could be a perfect character to throw of viewers. I don't think its bobolett either
BlackFlagg Posted September 21, 2005 Report Posted September 21, 2005 Well if people think that 3-way in the first episode was to much than.... Just read in Entertainment Weekly that there's gonna be a four way with Christian, and Costa, didn't say who the other two in it would be, I'm guessing Kimber and the detective chick.
Guest JMA Posted September 22, 2005 Report Posted September 22, 2005 never thought about Dr. Santiago. random tangent: why did she leave the show? She was hot.. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I don't know why the actress left or what the character's reason for leaving was. Sometimes characters just disappear from Nip/Tuck and you're only given a hint about what happened to them; i.e. Matt and the two chicks he was banging. Because of the talk he had with his father, we can assume that he stopped seeing the girl that was into him (especially since he soon started having a relationship with Ava), but we never really saw her again. The same is true for Kara (the girl Matt ran over). The last time I remember seeing Dr. Santiago she saw Christian screwing a woman and walked away disgusted. Exit, stage left. I have a feeling a lot of characters we haven't seen in a while will be returning, with Jude being the first. I think they'll do this to make the viewers question who exactly the Carver is. It could even be that guy who got the sex change--not Ava, the other one. But I'm still going with Grace Santiago.
Youth N Asia Posted October 5, 2005 Author Report Posted October 5, 2005 BUMP! new ep tonight. And I'm finally caught up, so now I can participate here.
Conspiracy_Victim Posted October 5, 2005 Report Posted October 5, 2005 OK yeah if I'm Sean I'm a BIT uncomfortable having Costa stare at me while we're getting head from the very hot coeds. Maybe not "get up and leave" uncomfortable but at least "dude, a little privacy?" uncomfortable. Christian's going to lose control of his fun little relationship. Needs to keep his pimp hand strong, but Kit's going to get the porn star to look for a better situation. Just a guess 1/2 way through the episode.
