Lipstick Jungle
 
Is anyone watching this? I'm flipping between it & Dr. Drew -- I kinda like it! (the young buck tempting the girl from 24 to cheat on her husband is yummy)

And Andrew McCarthy is in it! And he's hitting on the girl from 90210. Flashbacks, left and right.

I watched. It was pretty good. Not as 'yay my life in new york is wonderful' ga-ga stuff as I thought it would have, and for that I'm glad and will probably watch again.

I will watch again, but I was not wowed. But this is the first ep so I have to tune in again to give it a fair shot.

I was shocked that the hubby (sorry I don't remember any names) didn't notice the phone number written on his wife's thigh. It was written all the way down her leg.:eek:

This show is being hyped as the "next Sex and the City." It's an okay show, but not the next SATC by any means.

I really wanted to like it, but I'm not sure if I'll watch it again. It's only halfway through the episode and I'm already not very interested in the characters. The whole thing is kinda contrived.

I have to join the lipstick jungle thread....I grew up with the "sexy 25 year old hunk" (he is actually 26) in Lisptick jungle.. His real name is Robert Buckley and he was quite the stud at Claremont High School in Claremont, CA... Anyways, my name is Ben Adelson and I am the owner of [company plug removed] and we work with sororities across the country designing their t-shirts.. We are offering free long sleeve shirts and hoodies on all orders... Call us today!

I absolutely loved this show! I didn't think I would, because I hated Sex in the City and it's written by the same woman, but I gave it a shot anyway and I am glad that I did!

I love the characters and the actors...pretty much everything about this show is great. I laughed out loud when Lindsay Price's character said, "ooh, come here, this fixes cold and bitter." :D

Can't wait for next week!

Didn't you go to Elon? Your name sounds familiar.

That doesn't negate the spam factor, though.

I TiVo'd Lipstick Jungle. Can't wait to see it. I love Lindsay Price.

I liked it. They ran it again this morning on USA. Much better than Cashmere Mafia--which seems similar. I will probably watch it again.

AGDee 02-11-2008 07:39 AM

See, I'm feeling Cashmere Mafia more than this show. They have similar themes, I guess I just felt like I could relate to the Cashmere Mafia women better (even though I don't have a high power job, their family issues felt more real to me).

Little32 02-11-2008 09:56 AM

Hmmm...I felt the dialogue was stilted and the characters do not seem to have a lot of chemistry. Granted, I did not watch the whole show, it was sort of unbearable to me.

Co-sign! I like "CM" better than "LJ" also. :)

Still BLUTANG 02-12-2008 11:15 AM

i'm having trouble figuring out where this series picks up after the book leaves off. maybe i'm expecting too much, but i'm not impressed. i AM however hugely on the CM bandwagon... maybe because i'm going to that show with a clean slate?
