As Eden Lord, AnnaLynne McCord has established herself as the “disturbed sociopath" on the fifth season of Nip/Tuck. Now, she'll be presenting viewers with another TV character as she stars on the much-awaited series 90210.
90210, the spin-off series of Beverly Hills 90210, features McCord as the character Naomi Bennett, who is quite comparable to Jennie Garth's Kelly Taylor. McCord will be portraying a high school girl who is filthy rich, very attractive and very popular. And although her new role is less bitchy than that of her Nip/Tuck character, viewers can expect plenty of naughty action ahead for her. According to Zap2it.com, there may even be a bit of angry sexual tension between Naomi and her 20-something teacher played by Ryan Eggold (Dirt).

The cast of Caprica, the Battlestar Galactica spin-off prequel, keeps getting better and better. We previously announced that Paula Malcomson (Deadwood) and Esai Morales (Jericho) had joined the cast, and now Polly Walker (Cane, Rome) and veteran film actor Eric Stoltz have also signed on. Walker will play Sister Clarice Willow, a duplicitous headmistress of a private religious school, while Stoltz will play computer engineer Daniel Graystone, the husband of Malcomson's character and the man who helps create the first Cylon.
Before Caprica launches as a TV-movie in 2009, Battlestar Galactica will wrap up its fourth and final season. Now that shooting on the final episodes of BSG is nearly completed, TV Guide has announced that Katee Sackhoff will be scrubbing in on Nip/Tuck for at least four episodes.

Dylan Walsh and Julian McMahon are not only making controversial waves on television as the lead stars of Nip/Tuck, but are also gradually creating buzz with their upcoming movies. Walsh's film is currently filming, so fans can expect the movie to hit the theaters later this year. Meanwhile, McMahon's project is still in pre-production stages but will most likely come up in 2009.
Walsh, who starts as Dr. Sean McNamara on Nip/Tuck, is working on The Stepfather, the remake of the 1987 thriller film of the same name. The movie centers on a teenage boy who discovers that his soon-to-be stepfather isn't all he appears to be. He then speculates that the man who fell in love with his mother might be a psycho who murdered his previous family.

Last Tuesday, Nip/Tuck aired its season ender, at least for the first part of season 5 since there are still eight remaining episodes to air in fall. The controversial medical drama averaged just under 3 million total viewers, making the episode “Candy Richards” the least-watched finale of the series in its five-season history, according to Nielsen Media Research.
While many viewers were pleased with the ender, some were disappointed given that it left many cliffhangers.

FX’s controversial medical drama, Nip/Tuck, has just wrapped up its fifth season yesterday. But production for the sixth season has already been slated for this summer, according to TV Guide. No airdate has been set, but with the writers’ strike in the can, everything should move along as scheduled. Meanwhile, fans can relive the drama as the network launches the complete season 5 of Nip/Tuck in DVD on May 20.
For those who are not familiar, Nip/Tuck is an Emmy and Golden Globe award-winning television series that follows the lives of , Sean McNamara (Dylan Walsh) and Christian Troy (Julian McMahon), two plastic surgeons, close friends and business partners who own an overwhelmingly successful plastic surgery practice. Seasons 1 to 4 was set in Miami, Florida, where the doctors attempted to bring inner peace and contentment to their patients through external cosmetic procedures. Season 5, however, followed the doctors relocating their business to Los Angeles where they struggled for success in a city where they are professionally unknown and where residents yearn for fame.

With the three-month long writers' strike seemingly about to come to a close, viewers are just eager to see an end to the drought in fresh material in primetime television. In the case of Nip/Tuck, hopefully, the much-awaited resolution of the writers' guild conflict will also mean the completion of Nip/Tuck's current, prematurely shortened season.
Prior to the start of the strike, FX had already received part of its order for Nip/Tuck. The network has since been airing the completed installments and is reportedly all set to resume working on new episodes once the writers' walkout ends.
