Regarding Elanor's excitement bout summer TV, I stumbled across Nip/Tuck the other night. There's no way I can explain its tantalizing crapness, so here's an example: "it's not your breasts you have to change. It's your life". I just don't understand what this show's trying to be. Part ER, part Melrose, part Extreme Makeovers, it's all over the place. In one episode they had ruptured breast implants, a marriage breakdown, the collapse of a surgical partnership, a guy with a mask, child abuse, cocaine, a gerbil called Frisky(!) and a mid-life crisis. Also amusing watching Julian McMahon play a sleazoid plastic surgeon - it somehow seems the perfect fit. Funny that his dad once ruled our fair land...
