CHICAGO – Let’s be honest: “Nip/Tuck” has been in need of a face lift for years. The show arguably jumped the shark when The Carver took over (in season three) and has never quite looked the same since. Even with the sizable flaws of the last two seasons, “Nip/Tuck” was never boring. It even showed flashes of creator Ryan Murphy’s occasional genius in the seasons since.
But the premiere of season six, which will be the show’s last, hints at a team that has grown weary of their own creation. Dull, confusing, and simply uninteresting, “Nip/Tuck” looks like it might go out with a whimper instead of a bang.
The premiere of season six, “Don Hoberman,” raises more questions than anything else. And not questions about where it’s going but about what the hell happened. Firstly, who thought that Katee Sackhoff (“Battlestar Galactica”), who memorably played Sean’s girlfriend Teddy in season five, could be replaced by Rose McGowan and no one would notice or care? The move from the “Bewitched” playbook is a head-scratcher not just because it’s a different actress but because McGowan brings a completely different energy to the character. It doesn’t feel like Teddy of season five.

Jack is struggling through a bus station with two huge and obviously heavy suitcases when a stranger walks up to him and asks “Have you got the time?”
Jack sighs, puts down the suitcases and glances at his wrist. “It’s a quarter to six,” he says.
“Hey, that’s a pretty fancy watch!” exclaims the stranger.
Jack brightens a little. “Yeah, it’s not bad. Check this out” – and he shows him a time zone display not just for every time zone in the world, but for the 86 largest metropoli.
He hits a few buttons and from somewhere on the watch a voice says “The time is eleven ’til six” in a very West Texas accent.
A few more buttons and the same voice says something in Japanese.
Jack continues “I’ve put in regional accents for each city”. The display is unbelievably high quality and the voice is simply astounding.
The stranger is struck dumb with admiration. “That’s not all,” says Jack. He pushes a few more buttons and a tiny but very hi- resolution map of New York City appears on the display. “The flashing dot shows our location by satellite positioning,” explains Jack.
“View recede ten,” Jack says, and the display changes to show eastern New York state.
“I want to buy this watch!” says the stranger.
“Oh, no, it’s not ready for sale yet; I’m still working out the bugs,” says the inventor.
“But look at this,” and he proceeds to demonstrate that the watch is also a very creditable little FM radio receiver with a digital tuner, a sonar device that can measure distances up to 125 meters, a pager with thermal paper printout and, most impressive of all, the capacity for voice recordings of up to 300 standard-size books,” though I only have 32 of my favourites in there so far” says Jack.
“I’ve got to have this watch!” says the stranger.
“No, you don’t understand; it’s not ready.”
“I’ll give you $1000 for it!”
“Oh, no, I’ve already spent more than -”
“I’ll give you $5000 for it!”
“But it’s just not -”
“I’ll give you $15,000 for it!” And the stranger pulls out a cheque book.
Jack stops to think. He’s only put about $8500 into materials and development, and with $15 000 he can make another one and have it ready for merchandising in only six months.
The stranger frantically finishes writing the check and waves it in front of him. “Here it is, ready to hand to you right here and now. $15,000. Take it or leave it.”
Jack abruptly makes his decision. “OK,” he says, and peels off the watch.
They make the exchange and the stranger starts happily away.
“Hey, wait a minute,” calls Jack after the stranger, who turns around warily.
Jack points to the two suitcases he’d been trying to wrestle through the bus station.
“Don’t forget your batteries !”

A man goes to a jewelry store looking to buy a watch. He looks at a watch called “the George Bush Watch” and asks the sales clerk why there are no hands. The sales clerk says–”you are suppose to read his lips”.
He then looks at a watch called the “Ross Perot Watch” and notices that it isn’t running – the sales clerk tells him “it runs, it doesn’t run, it runs, it doesn’t run . . .”
He then notices a watch called the “Bill Clinton Watch” and sees that it runs, has hands and looks like a pretty good watch. He asks the sales clerk how much. The sales clerk replies “$19.95 plus tax, plus tax, plus tax, plus tax, plus tax . . .”

An Italian parks his brand new BMW in front of the office, just down the street from Casa Napoli, to show it off to his bros. As he’s getting out of the car, a truck comes quickly along close to the curb and takes off the door before speeding away. More than a little distraught, the Italian grabs his cell and calls the police. Five minutes later, the police arrive. Before the policeman has a chance to ask any questions, the Italian starts screaming hysterically: “My BMW, my beautiful black BMW is ruined!!!! No matter how long at the body shop it’ll never be the same again!”
After the Italian finally finishes his rant, the policeman shakes his head in disgust: “I can’t believe how materialistic you bloody Italians are,” he says.” You guys are so focused on your possessions that you don’t notice anything else in your life.” “How can you say such a thing at a time like this?” snapped the Italian. The policeman replies, “Didn’t you realize that your right arm was torn off when the truck hit you?”
The Italian looks down in absolute horror. “HOLYS!!!!!!” he screams, ”Where’s my Rolex ????
