Botched

Used to be a great show, with lots of information. It always seemed smarter than E's standard reality show crap pile.

But 2021, the execubots must have finally got their claws into it, because it's just as stupid as everything else on E. It's all 'stakes, stakes stakes' nonstop. They also intercut the surgeries now which is completely moronic. It's two rooms with people in gowns and masks, so it's impossible to know what's going on.

The new editing style is dated garbage as well.

Oh well, it was good while it lasted.

The show focuses on 2 plastic surgeons who deal with different procedures. Dr Dubrow deals with everything from the chest down and Dr Nassif deals with everything from the neck up.

There are some great stories with some incredible outcomes. Your heart goes out to some of the patients who went to countries such as the Dominican Republic, Mexico, or South America and had their surgeries really botched. The outcomes at the end of the show are incredible. The results are not 100% perfect and this is usually due to large amounts of scar tissue, but the transformations are incredible.

The show would receive 10 stars if it weren't for the absurd people that you see them add into each episode. There is always one person each episode that goes to the extreme with plastic surgery and want more. This is always for shock value, but it's just a turn off and pretty disgusting that makes you want to change the channel.

I just love this show. It doesn't feel fake like so much reality TV does. The doctors are truly caring individuals, you can't fake that, they aren't actors. Dr. Nassif has more than once gotten all misty eyed. They love what they do and they love helping people and they take great pride in their work.

Sure the format is a little repetitive, but that's just the way the show is put together. It's too bad they can't show anything on-screen but it doesn't bother me. It's the stories that are interesting, the before and after, and the ways people's lives are transformed. Sure some of the people are a bit shallow, but hey, this is a show about plastic surgery, it's to be expected. Some of them really deserve the help they receive.

I also like how the doctors are very responsible. They turn away people who they think are not good candidates. "First do no harm". So many doctors seem to have forgotten their oath. More than a few plastic-surgery addicted people have tried to apply. If they were botched, they got help. If they just wanted to indulge their addiction, they got turned away with a warning. Few of them took the warning seriously and most vowed to get their chosen surgery anyway, but a few listened.

I've been watching Botched for years-lately, brash Terry has become more insulting to sweet Paul-a total turnoff to me. Thanks to widespread use of smart phones, female patients can film and broadcast their nude chests even before they reach the Beverly Hills medical building examining room. Modesty, a forgotten virtue. I agree 100% with the Hattian mother who urged her daughter to be glad for her nose instead of trying to reshape it; Dr. Paul reshaped the unhappy daughter's nose so well she got a new Do and flaunted her celebrity profile. The film industry has done too much to make viewers unhappy about what God has provided and, for better or worse, the medical profession has been accommodating patients with reasonable and unreasonable requests. ~~ In cases of birth defects, serious illnesses, disfiguring accidents, etc., I can understand the need for surgery but pumping up one's boobs for show is for boobs! Many patients don't care about surgical risks nor do they realize that a boob job (assuming correctly done) is only good for 12 years. Doesn't all that silicone interfere with love making? And patients with lip fillers can't feel being kissed, can't drink without dribbling liquid all over themselves. Just because something can be done doesn't mean it should be done. Thankfully, the two Botched doctors refuse to assist certain would-be patients and advise them to stop already.

It's a good show it helps people but once you have seen one episode you have seen em all. Always about the same thing nose,breasts and ass

And I don't understand how on earth they can even bring in those freaks who wants to be an alien or cartoon etc. Twerking and making sex jokes that feels a little bit too weird for me, They really need to change the show a litt bit if they want to sell it, I wish there were more people with serious problem rather than bigger boobs I hope they find better candidates for next season
