LOS ANGELES, July 30 (UPI) -- The FX cable network says its Golden Globe Award-winning series "Nip/Tuck" is ending its yearlong hiatus and starting a new season in September.
The popular medical drama will start its third season Sept. 20, in the spot currently occupied by "Rescue Me," the network announced.
The series ended with a cliffhanger -- with a masked slasher attacking a sleeping Dr. Christian Troy. Creator Ryan Murphy told the Television Critics Press tour not to expect the mystery to be solved until near the end of the season.
"We started that story, and people really loved it," Murphy of the serial slasher. "I'm interested in what it's about, what that character is saying."
The season will pick up about a month after the finale's time frame with Christian, played by Julian McMahon, dealing with the "brutal" repercussions of the attack.
