Nip/Tuck Season 5 and Season 6

Nip/Tuck Season 5 and Season 6 Predictions

February 19, Michael Ausiello's blog on TV Guide.com has announced that production for the sixth season has already been slated for the summer of 2008. No airdate has been announced yet, but with the writer's strike in the can, everything should move along as scheduled.

After a less than eventful fifth season, what could be in store for season six? Another killer like the Carver? The loss and return of old characters like the McNamara clan? It's hard to say.

It's also hard to say whether or not viewers will be awaiting season six as fanatically as they did for season five. The events that unfolded during this season were less than stellar, in comparison to seasons passed.

While Kimber (Kelly Carlson) and Matt's (John Hensley) stint with meth, or Eden's (AnnaLynne McCord) attempt at Julia's (Joely Richardson) death (which will be the highlight of the season finale) were slightly interesting, they left me starving for the next week's episode like I had felt in previous seasons.

Will McNamara and Troy end up back in Miami? Doubtful.

It does seem to be the case that Christian (Julian McMahon) has returned to his old ways after a short stint at trying to be the nice guy. At the same time, it seems that Sean (Dylan Walsh) has moved on to the dark side, and won't be making a return trip any time soon. The next season will probably feature Sean continuing to be corrupted by Hollywood, until a shining revelation occurs, where he realizes the error of his ways.

It also seems, that if they don't kill off Julia in the season finale, that the shows producer is setting her up to try and patch things up with Sean.

Will he take her back? Probably not until she's tried to make it work one more time with Olivia (Portia de Rossi).

In season six viewers will probably also see a return of the recently absent Annie McNamara (Kelsey Batelaan). And what about little Connor McNamara, the McNamara's youngest? It's hard to say.
