YOU Paid For Explicit Sex and Gore on Nip/Tuck

Last night’s return of the twisted FX drama Nip/Tuck contained horrifically graphic scenes of bloodshed, explicit sex and nudity…and YOU PAID FOR IT!

In the show’s opening minutes, a psychotic woman is shown repeatedly stabbing a man with a butcher knife as blood gushes from his mouth. The episode concludes with an extended scene showing two men having oral and rear-entry sex with naked women, their breasts and genitals covered only by the men’s hands and bodies. This episode, which also featured over a dozen instances of foul language, was shown at 10:00 p.m. ET/PT – only 9:00 p.m. in the Central and Mountain time zones.

Warning: the scene contains graphic content. Do not watch with children present.

Under the rules the entertainment industry has set up, FX is supported by every cable customer’s monthly subscription fee. If you subscribe to advertiser-supported basic cable or satellite TV – even if you never watch Nip/Tuck -- YOU paid for this program!
