You know, it's four days after Nip/Tuck got removed from streaming that I realize "I need a reference pic of Escobar."  Though strangely now I don't remember WHY, but he was perfect for some role/character I had in my mind that's now escaped me.

It seemed real strange for them to go from being the big fish in Miami to the plankton in LA, but at least it raised the stakes somewhat.  I would have been fine if they had stayed in Miami, but I like the idea that the show wanted to expand and try new things (and build new sets... I got the impression this is about the time that the show actually had money to do things with).  It did strain credibility a bit when everyone else arrived over there too (especially when you watch all the episodes at once), but it'd also feel strange to just drop so much of the cast just like that.  And switching between Cali and Miami would have been... tiresome a bit, and makes it tough for the storylines to affect one another.
