It's time for a follow-up appointment at McNamara-Troy, Florida's hottest--and most dysfunctional--plastic surgery center, and the setting for the controversial television drama Nip/Tuck, which gives audiences a peek into the professional and private lives of two driven doctors and their (mostly female) patients. If the first season had its share of shocking visuals and storylines, viewers should probably strap themselves into their easy chairs for the events in season 2. In addition to the usual offbeat medical issues (the team gives a man breasts, reconstructs a woman's sexual organs, restores a host of gruesome mutilations, and comes very close to undoing Joan Rivers's face work), Drs. McNamara (Dylan Walsh) and Troy (Julian McMahon) must deal with a vicious serial killer known as the Carver, a vengeful former patient (Jill Clayburgh), a woman with alleged stigmata, and a life coach (Famke Janssen) who reveals a stunning secret past--all in the course of just 16 episodes. Guest turns by Alec Baldwin, Vanessa Redgrave (the real-life mother to series regular Joely Richardson), and Sarah Paulson (Deadwood) compliment the already high-quality performances by the cast, and the episodes seem to have ditched the glibness of season 1 in favor of a more serious tone, which makes for a more uniformly enjoyable watching experience. As with the season 1 set, The Complete Second Season includes several extras, most notably 45 minutes of deleted scenes, and a featurette titled "Recurring Pain," which explores the relationships between three female characters and Dr. Troy. --Paul Gaita

2) Description
Flash and cash. Sex and style. Power and prestige. All it takes is a Nip/Tuck. The acclaimed series at TV's cutting edge continues in a Deluxe 16-Episode Season Two Set on six discs with Revealing Enhancements. Dylan Walsh and Julian McMahon return as the elite plastic surgery team of McNamara/Troy, whose skill at giving others perfect bodies contrasts with the doctors' imperfect personal lives. From love (Troy falls for a self-assured blind woman) to lust (McNamara dates a porn star), from painful revelations (a secret from the past shatters the practice) to powerful moments (conjoined adults seek the doctors' help) to astonishing truths (a New Age "life coach" hides what ultimately can't be hidden), this second-season operation is a total success. Thank you, doctors!

Average Customer Rating: 4.5 out of 5

1) Nip Tuck Season 2   [Rating: 5 out of 5]
It's Nip Tuck Season 2. If you liked the first season, and you happen to be living in South Korea for 15 months and want to watch season 2, then this product is for you. Good job with the shipping amazon, it made it here with no problems. I wish all of the products on amazon allowed worldwide shipping.

2) More nips, more tucks, more upheavals   [Rating: 5 out of 5]
The provocative and sometimes almost-soft-porn series heats up even more in the second season, when Julia reveals the truth about who fathered Matt (it wasn't Sean!), Julia spirals down into drinking and depression, Sean is threatened by serial menace The Carver, Christian loses the little boy he wanted to raise with Gina and later faces an HIV crisis, Matt is taken in by the twisted Ava and her troubled "son" Adrian, and it all ends with another attack by the Carver, who has stepped up his crimes by way of taunting the Troy/MacNamara team. Often this show puts me in mind of Rescue Me, where the characters have only brief periods of happiness before some other terrible event befalls them. That the plastic surgeons have tons of money does not help them in the slightest and in a way, it hurts them. Troy has slept with half the women in Miami by now but still cannot find true love and intimacy.Sean has a family and a nice home, but his relationships are in crisis and he has been assaulted in that beautiful home as well.I wonder how they will top all of this in Season 3.

3) The multilayered onion   [Rating: 5 out of 5]
[ASIN:B0009IW88K Nip/Tuck - The Complete Second Season]]The characters of the proiagonists are finely drawn, the secondary ones though at first unbelievable, on second thoughts do remind us of someone we have known or heard about, the surgery scenes accurate and the settins simple, elegant and contemporary- the ingredients that make up a series that is as intriguing as it is gripping.

4) Wow what a show   [Rating: 5 out of 5]
After renting the first season, we bought season 2. It is an amazing show with great guest stars and more than one ending which will leave you speechless. Awesome. Must see if nothing else for the tender moments with Christian and his "son"
