    Nip/Tuck

    The Parents Television Council has criticized the show. The show is, however, shown at a late hour with multiple 'Viewer Discretion Advised' warnings. A particular scene involving a foursome pushed the PTC into starting a campaign to get the show taken off the air by writing to the sponsors of the show and threatening to boycott their products. Another scene the PTC criticized depicted a funeral home worker removing and assembling body parts from dead women, including his sister's head, then sewing them together to make "the ideal woman." The PTC president described it in a decency hearing as "incestuous necrophilia."

    Neurologists have often used an image of a little man-like creature whose parts are distorted to show how much of the brain's surface is expended on those body parts in a normal human. What is this figure called and who devised it? [A site with a picture of it is welcome.]

    Is there a term used when a character on a historical television show or a movie criticizes something that the viewers know would be a success? An example of this would be when Major Charles Winchester of M*A*S*H criticized the hula hoop.
