Has anyone watched this series? My husband and I watch it on the Roku. I have a need to discuss it more than my dear husband can tolerate. If so, what do people think? The writing is pretty bad, but what makes it so good than? I watch MadMen and that is good writing.

I saw a few episodes of it years ago, can't remember much of it.

The producer does Glee now, on Fox.

Well, that doesn't surprise me, I like Glee. Just don't have TV so need to get the show through Netflicks.

I watched a few episodes several years ago. It came on late at night here. I think it featured a lot more butt than was normally allowed on network tv here (I think I live in the bible belt). There is one image seared into my mind of that dark-haired morally inept surgeon doing the deed with some blonde and any time I hear mention of Nip Tuck that's the first thing that comes to mind - they tried so hard to make it shocking and as the viewer I was well aware of it, and amused more than shocked. After that, there's the other surgeon who always had a pained look on his face. He had a newborn with deformed hands.

I can't say that I hated that show, but I didn't go out of my way to try to watch it. I think it came on after something that my husband watched and we were winding down going to bed and it was on.

That's about the level of the show, back round music. However, my husband and I watch it as we are putting the baby to sleep. The baby sleeps on his shoulder and I play on the computer and partly watch. We do actually comment on the superficial nature of the doctors, but than again- look at us watching this dumb show.

Just watched a few shows of Glee and enjoyed that a lot.

I just started watching Glee and its a good show when you feel like doing something relaxing. Entertaining in a high school sort of way.
