Say Goodbye to ‘Lipstick Jungle’ Tonight

Brooke Shields/Lipstick Jungle 2.13

Unless something unexpected happens in coming weeks, it looks like tonight’s episode of the NBC dramedy Lipstick Jungle will be the series’ last.

Called “Chapter Twenty: La Vie En Pose,” the main gimmick, if you will, of the installment is Nico’s appearance on the NBC morning program the Today Show, right alongside real later-hour hosts Hoda Kotb and Kathie Lee Gifford, who play themselves. The visit results from the magazine editor’s attempt to polish her professional image, but it ends up impacting her personal life negatively.

Elsehwere, Wendy gets major attitude from her teenage daughter Maddie while her husband Shane is away, and Victory encounters complications of her own when she plans a get-together for her new fiancé Joe and her much less affluent and urban parents.

Check out the final (as of now) episode of Lipstick Jungle tonight, January 9, at 9pm EST.

    I am still hoping that one of sister stations will take advantage of the great and vocal fan base that “Lipstick Jungle” already has. NBC should have allowed it to gain the real audience it should have sans the writers’ strike. I didn’t think that I could become more addicted to “LJ” than I already was. I bought Seasons 1 and 2 and loved seeing the deleted scenes (particularly “the bed”). And really enjoyed seeing the relationship grow between and Joe…..(OMG, Andrew McCarthy!!! He makes me want to ravage my husband everytime I see him)…. I thought the ensemble was incredible down to the supporting players. The dialogue and premise were real and fun. Ok, I can be objective, having seen the episodes over and over, I think “Hector” might have been miscast. Great for English audience, but we needed an obnoxious American to hate……What a mistake to cancel the show!!! Now, we’ll all be watching the DVD’s instead of watching inane reality shows.

    Shocked? ‘Til Death’ Gets Fourth Season

    [...] are clamoring for the survival of prematurely canceled but beloved shows like Pushing Daisies and Lipstick Jungle? That’s business for ya — dollars, not loyal viewers, [...]

    Just started watching this season and I can’t believe what a gem this show is. It soooo good!!!
    I mean unbelievably good. I can’t find anything I don’t like about LJ.

    Really hope NBC can find a way to keep it.

    This show should be a keeper for NBC. Real and compassionate characters, strong women and a great view of living in NYC.
