Please no More Rosie O'Donnell

All I can say is that Nip/Tuck never disappoints but the idea of Rosie O'Donnell getting a series based around her character is quite appalling. She just plays herself and she has never really acted before in the same context as the others. I don't know why she came back twice. Just leave her to the View and those talkative hens over there in New York City. If you want to make a series around a guest star, think of Brooke Shields, Larry Hagman, or Ruth Williamson not Rosie. Just put a giant blob in her place. Anyway this episode has Escobar Gallardo returning with his beautiful wife who was mauled and disfigured. Anyway, the scene in the post-operative room will answer some questions about the future of the show. Although you are going to have wait an excruciating nine months for the next season which is just torture to think about it. Anyway, Sean decides to relocate to Hollywood, plastic surgery capital of the world. I won't say much more because I don't want to spoil any surprises for the fans out there. You will just have to watch and see and you won't be disappointed.
