Nip/Tuck Gets A Lift From Logo
The surgeons of the outrageous medical drama “Nip/Tuck” are checking into Logo.
The gay-oriented cable network announced on Thursday that they had acquired
syndication rights for “Nip/Tuck” and will start broadcasting episodes in October.
"Nip/Tuck" was created by Ryan Murphy, who's also the creator of Fox’s hit series “Glee”. The show's popular stars are Dylan Walsh and Julian McMahon.
One night during prime time, installments for the drama, which originally
aired on FX, will air in three-episode stacks, with a new stack each week.
Additionally, all 100 episodes of the series, which ran for seven seasons
before concluding this year, will be shown as well.
Logo's senior vice president of multiplatform programming, Marc Leonard
stated, "The celebrity guests, moments of jaw-dropping outrageousness and
honest depiction of its gay characters and their friends made the series a
perfect fit for our audience”.
Leonard commented that “At the end of the day, we see it as a love story
between two straight guys who are challenged by the family that they've created
-- and that's pretty fierce."
