Reception

The fourth season received positive reviews from critics, holding a 71% fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes.[5] Maria Elena Fernandez of the Los Angeles Times wrote "Perhaps the show's continued success can be attributed to its restless energy and how in one hour it offers a taste of several different genres, mixing the real with the outrageous",[6] whilst Brian Lowry wrote for Variety, "As always, the series manages to glorify surface beauty while subjecting society's obsession with it to a harsh glare, holding up the strange cases that waltz in as a mirror to the Sean-Julia-Christian triangle. The dialogue remains biting as well."[7] Maureen Ryan of the Chicago Tribune praised the character development, writing "That sense of saucy transgression married to surprisingly effective character development – the magic formula of the first two seasons – is a bit wobbly this year, but Nip/Tuck is more or less back on track."[8] Some reviews were less favorable, with Joe Reid of The Atlantic writing "This stretch of Nip/Tuck was just uninspired ... [It has] its own urban-legend charm, but all the main characters were seriously spinning their wheels",[9] whilst other critics argued the show did not live up to the quality of previous seasons and criticized many imbued scenes.[10][11]
