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.

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 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."
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.

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).

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.

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?
