Happy Halloween, and welcome to the recap season for the scariest show on TV, "Nip/Tuck"! For those of you not in the know, let me fill you in:

Previously: The show got even more ridiculous than usual , as last season's central arc focused on an organ theft ring headed up by Jacqueline Bissett and Christian's chick Michelle. Lesbian nurse Liz got her kidney stolen and dated Alanis Morrisette. Julia slept with a dwarf and skipped town. Sean's kid Matt ended up impregnating Kimber, and they become Scientologists. When the season wound down, Sean and Christian moved their practice from Miami to L.A.. Where I'm sure there is no shortage of grotesque plastic surgery fodder.

Lights up, it's showtime. The new plastic surgery clinic is vast. Gigundous if you will. The foyer is uh, there's a lot of wood paneling. And Liberace coffin looking sofas. That are blue. Is this what the interior decorating is like in L.A.? Who is determining this motif? Eleanor Roosevelt?

Sean and Christian are playing b-ball in one of the operating rooms. Yes, they have an actual basketball hoop set up in an operating room. I hope it's removable because there is no way I am getting wheeled into surgery when there's an opportunity for the guy shoving a knife in me to get distracted working on his three point shot. I'd sue. I'd sue the dickens! Christian asks Sean if he thinks Sean can get inside of him now. He's talking basketball, but didn't we tackle this theme last season? There's gay, there's gayer and then there's this show. "Face it, partner, you just can't dominate me" says Christian. Why don't they just decorate the operating room in rainbows?

Keep reading for more Nip/Tuck recap, after the jump.

Here's pics from the "Park" premiere. Has anyone noticed that Cheri Oteri is trying to work the glam overtime lately? It's your funny that makes you pretty, Cheri! Work that! Or just stand next to Ricki Lake all the time. Seriously all those trashy people she paraded around for so long appear to have sucked the soul right out of her. There's only so many times you can counsel Lisa on whether she should "kick her babydaddy Damien to the curb or not!" before it takes its toll on your mug.

Dog Chapman has been captured spewing foul-mouthed racist slurs on a tape obtained exclusively by The NATIONAL ENQUIRER.

And now a civil rights leader is calling for Dog’s TV show to be removed from the airwaves.

In a shocking world exclusive The ENQUIRER has obtained tapes of two revolting phone conversations in which Duane “Dog” Chapman unleashes a filthy bigoted attack, littered with the N-word and other disgusting racial insults.

The star of the A&E reality show Dog, The Bounty Hunter directed his racist hatred at his son Tucker’s girlfriend Monique Shinnery, who is black.

“Dog Chapman should not have a show. That show should be taken off the air!”

That’s the opinion of prominent civil rights leader Roy Innis, who has served as the chairman of the Congress for Racial Equality (CORE) since 1968. Innis was shocked and outraged when The ENQUIRER played Dog Chapman’s racist telephone conversations for him.

“This man should not be held up as a role model for children,” Innis told The ENQUIRER. “He has venom deep in his soul. This is a picture of his heart — a revelation of his true nature.

Innis believes that cable network A&E needs to take swift action in response to Dog’s vicious outburst.

“He needs to answer for his behavior,” says Innis.

“When someone gets the opportunity to use the airwaves, he becomes a role model, whether he likes it or not. Dog Chapman should not be in that position, posing as a good guy.

“His comments show that he certainly is not a good guy.”

Update: In response to this story, A&E network has released a statement saying: “A&E has just learned of the story released by the National Enquirer concerning Duane Dog Chapman. We take this matter very seriously. Pending an investigation, we have suspended production on the series. When the inquiry is concluded we will take appropriate action.”

The man known as “Don Vito” on MTV’s show “Viva La Bam” was convicted Wednesday of two counts of sexual assault on a child. Vincent Margera, 51, who was accused of groping three girls ages 12 to 14 during an autograph signing event last year at mall skate park in the Denver suburb of Lakewood, fell to the floor cursing and yelled, “Just kill me now.”

He was acquitted of a third count of sex assault on a child. He faces a sentence of probation to six years in prison on each conviction. If he doesn’t comply with sex offender treatment as part of the sentence, he could potentially spend life in prison, district attorney’s spokeswoman Pam Russell said.

After Margera’s courtroom outburst, deputies restrained him and took him to jail, where he was being held without bail until his sentencing hearing, set for Dec. 20.

Defense attorney Pamela Mackey had argued that when Margera appeared at the skate park, he took on the persona of the outrageous and profane Don Vito. Mackey had said that Margera, a car painter, learned that the crazier he acted, the more his fans loved it.

“Viva La Bam” starred Margera’s nephew, professional skateboarder Bam Margera.

Lane Garrison was sentenced to three years and four months in prison Wednesday for a drunken driving crash that killed a 17-year-old Beverly Hills High student last December.

“The public has the right to know that conduct such as this, causing devastation such as this” will have consequences, said Superior Court Judge Elden S. Fox.

“Unfortunately, in this case, you have to be the messenger,” he told the former “Prison Break” actor.

Garrison, 27 could have received nearly seven years in prison. He had no reaction to the sentencing and was taken away in handcuffs.

Before the sentencing, he apologized to the family of Vahagn Setian.

“I’m sick of my own behavior that night,” he said. “This remorse is genuine. I feel it every day.”

About 30 teenagers, many of them Beverly Hills High students, packed the courtroom, some wearing T-shirts that had Setian’s photograph and the motto: “Dream as if you’ll live forever. Live as if you’ll die today.”

“There are no winners in this situation, obviously,” Setian family spokesman James Lee said outside court.

“I wouldn’t characterize the family as being happy about this,” he said. “Vahagn will not come back.”

After the hearing, defense attorney Harland Braun said his client “was hopeful (of leniency) but someone’s dead and he’s alive.”

Braun said Garrison told him: “I’m the lucky one.”

Setian was a passenger in the 2001 Land Rover that Garrison rammed into a tree on Dec. 2. Two 15-year-old girls who also were in the vehicle survived.

Garrison met the teens at a grocery store and accompanied them to a party. At the time of the crash, Garrison had a blood-alcohol level of 0.20 percent, more than twice the legal limit for driving, and was under the influence of cocaine, according to police.

Garrison pleaded guilty in May to one count of vehicular manslaughter without gross negligence, one count of driving under the influence with a blood-alcohol level of 0.15 percent or higher and a misdemeanor of providing alcohol to a minor.

Classmates and relatives of Setian had pressed for Garrison to get the maximum sentence. On Tuesday, they tried to deliver a petition carrying more than 3,000 signatures making the request, but were told to submit it at the hearing through a prosecutor.

The judge refused to accept the petition Wednesday, calling it inappropriate.

Fox imposed both prison time and four years’ parole and ordered Garrison to pay around $300,000 in restitution to the victims and their families.
