I don't think that this is the best tv show, it's pretty 'fluffy' as far as good writing goes, but I admit it intrigued me as a bit of light romantic comedy fun. That and Brooke Shields is actually a really good actress.

That comment about the makeup totally made me laugh because I know exactly what scene you're talking about! They are all sooooo made up all the time, that scene really hit me too! I am totally obsessed with their clothes too - especially Victory's!

About Nico and Charles and Kirby (I agree, Kirby without a shirt=really does NEVER get old!), I actually feel like I really want Nico and Kirby to be together. I think she should talk to Charles and tell him how she feels, but she's obviously not in love with him anymore, nor him with her.

Thanks for posting these! I got into Lipstick Jungle a little this summer, getting caught up on some 'new' shows. I don't know if once the season starts I'll have time to watch, but if not I'll get caught up next summer! Ha!

studiojek

Uh-oh, I'm sure that'll turn into a bit of a 'love interest' for Shane =(

studiojek

I felt so badly for Wendy at the end of this episode -- and very happy for Victory! Rodrigo is a hot one!

studiojek

Fault or no fault - she did it because she thought it was the right thing to do. I felt badly for her anyway!

studiojek

I think it's possible for people to make mistakes but still deserve compassion, don't you? Have you never made a mistake?

studiojek

I don't like Griffin either - and he made me suspicious the way he was talking to her about her brother. I think he's up to something.

I felt so badly for Wendy. Do you think she'll start her own business or find her way back to work? Or will she settle into being a stay-at-home-mom now that things are a little better with her daughter?

I actually like Rodrigo and Victory together, I hope they can work things out.

studiojek

LOL I'm not worried, I was just wondering if the writers are going to have her move onto something else or make her a stay-at-home mom. I think she should start her own business, personally!

studiojek

That's why it's called a series LOL!

studiojek

*also raises hand* Yeah, from the very first moment they were sitting at the soccer game together I called it - and it bugged me. I wasn't happy with Wendy kissing him back.

I also agree that at first I liked Victory and Rodrigo but now am liking Victory and Joe better. Like she said, he tells her things as he sees them and seems to understand her.

studiojek

I feel the same way - felt so badly for Joe and was surprised about how she kissed Rodrigo. I hope that Joe doesn't give up on Victory though, I still think they have a future. Marriage was probably a silly first step though!

I'm also very excited for Wendy and her starting up her own business (called it lol!).

I actually think Kirby would make a great dad, and I think he's of the newer generation where he wouldn't mind being the stay-at-home-dad while Nico continues working.

studiojek

Taking care of a child I believe can be considered pulling one's weight

studiojek

I'm glad Wendy told her husband about the kiss, though I don't think she was 100% honest - was it my imagination or did she kiss back? Anyway, I'm glad they cleared the air.

I think Kirby will end up moving in but they will find a new apartment together to get away from the 'ghost' of Charles.

I really hope Joe and Victory get back together! She looked happy to know he almost proposed!

studiojek

Oh dear - totally awkward moment! There was something very creepy about Mom and Girlfriend being identical...definitely Oedipal! I agree, I think Nico is very serious about Kirby - and she may seem like the busy businesswoman kind of gal, but at the end of the day her friends and family are the most important things to her. I think she'll get pregnant soon!

studiojek

Well, I watched this episode from a whole new perspective knowing it's been cancelled. I didn't read the whole announcement - are they waiting till the end of the season or cancelling it asap? I hope we at least get some resolution. Here is how I'd like things to be resolved!!:

Joe and Victory end up getting married - hey, they could make the last episode a wedding one, like Hollywood has been doing since the beginning of time!

Nico and Wendy decide to open a business together, just the two of them as bosses.

I have a feeling Nico and Kirby would split up, but I would like to see them remain friends, maybe he could work as a photographer for the new business.

studiojek

From the moment they did the "last time on Lipstick Jungle" type intro, I wasn't happy about the Nico and Griffin scenes, they were showing all those moments that they seemed to be getting closer. Then the scene with lunch...I am also a Nico and Kirby fan all the way! But, blech, who knows what'll happen since it's almost OVER =(

studiojek

I think Kirby acted like a real idiot this episode -- the reason Nico lied to him was because he was being totally unsupportive and immature. This is a real problem that Nico has to deal with now and she's having those unexpected feelings about wanting to keep Charlie, it's too bad Kirby's being a baby about it.

I wasn't a big fan of Dahlia but like her now that she's back -- I agree, the nicer side to her is much easier to like! Good for Victory with the dress too.

WEndy and a third baby? Is Shane having feelings or Josie and so he's trying to fix their marriage by having a baby, just like we learned Wendy's parents did with her? I hope he doesn't cheat on her with Josie -- Josie seems sort of psycho doesn't she!?

studiojek

Yes definitely was the right timing for them to break up, they were in very different places in terms of what they want in life. In his defense (I was hard on Kirby last week!), Nico has already had her career success and proved herself, but Kirby still has career dreams and would have to throw them away for a baby. I did feel so badly for Nico when she had to give Charlie back to his grandparents though.

This week I'm mad at another "husband" though!: SHANE! Stop being a damn baby, boy! I understand Wendy shoudln't have gone and accepted the job without his ok first, but Shane went and signed with a manager without Wendy's consent so - well..they're even! I think the kids are getting old enough, especially Maddie, that they can have balance in the family even with both parents working.

As for Victory - I am still holding out hope that Joe will see the error of his ways and come back into her life!

studiojek

Yay, Victory and Joe! Though I have a bad feeling about it deep down...will Victory propose only to have Joe do something stupid? Let's hope not, it would be nice to end the show with a happy wedding!

I am not happy at all with how Shane is dealing with this new "arrangement" of things, but then again if I was Wendy I would probably be supportive of him going on tour. Yes, 4 months is a long time, especially since Wendy's working too, but like Josie said (I can't believe I'm agreeing with that nut job of a manager!), this has always been his dream and to deny it would only break them up in the end.

Nico and Griffin, hmm. Interesting. We did all see this coming from a mile away, but he was really sweet taking care of her. I don't really see him as new father material either though, and Nico wants this baby more than anything right now.

So do we know for 100% sure the show's been cancelled, is it official?

studiojek

Yay for Victory and Joe!!! If they have to cancel the show, they should just stop it right now as things seem pretty calm (or, calm enough!) for everyone! I wonder if the last episode will be Joe and Victory's perfect wedding!

I also agree that Wendy really had no choice but to let Shane go on tour. He was already rebelling against her, staying out till 5 and coming home drunk. I think it'll be good for their relationship. Or, at least neither of them will have any regrets.

I also wasn't expecting the Griffin/Nico kiss! But I also wasn't expecting Kirby to invite her to Aspen either! Should be interesting...!
