PASADENA, Calif., July 27 (UPI) -- Writer Ryan Murphy plans to hold to his practice of translating unique real-life surgeries onto his U.S. cable series "Nip/Tuck" in its upcoming season.
In the past three seasons of the controversial drama series, its plastic surgeon characters have performed a series of operations based solely on true circumstances, the New York Daily News reported.
In the past, the TV doctors have treated an obese woman who was physically adhered to her couch and another woman who unknowingly kept the fossilized remains of dead unborn child in her womb. Both stories were based on actual events.
In the upcoming fourth season, Murphy has based stories on cases in which a woman wants a voice-lift and a man who wants to have testicular implants.
