 At Least they saved one 2008-10-10 |
| By S. Lynch (Texas) |
| I was happy that NBC brought this back! Excellent show great season opener. Plot is picking up speed and the characters are getting deeper. A's all around. Wish I could be watching Journeyman and Bionic Woman saying the same. |
| Great show 2008-09-19 |
| By Charleen Merced (Newington, CT and sometimes in Puerto Rico) |
| Season 1 of Lipstick Jungle (7 episodes) was great. It was exciting, interesting and had great storylines. Season 2 starts just as good. Last season, the three friends experienced problems in their relationships, careers and their own friendships. By the season finale Nico and Wendy finally patched things up and friends supported Nico in a difficult situation. Episode 8 changes the path the friends will take. It was a great episode and a great start for the second season. (Although, I would have liked Nico's situation to have lasted a few more episodes.) |
 Contrived, poor plot 2008-06-14 |
| By Chad K. Fisher (Olympia, WA) |
| The only bright spot in this is the performance of Kim Raver. She is a great actress. She can't carry it though. The show itself is poorly thought out, doesn't follow any kind of logic, doesn't really know how strong intelligent women actually behave. Seems like it was written by and for weak witless women. |
| The poor man's Cashmere Mafia. 2008-03-02 |
| By Dan (New Haven, CT) |
| Weaker character and falser plotlines than the also-in-first-season Cashmere Mafia - conflicts of femininity and career success is the battleground and Cashmere Mafia occupies all the high ground. Lipstick is forgettable, uninspired, and a mockery of its rival. Its creators aught to put this one in the win column if NBC airs the whole season, if not cutting it sooner. |
| Awesome Series that's Relatable to Modern, Ambitious Women 2008-02-26 |
| By J. Kim (San Diego, CA) |
| As an ambitious woman in her twenties, it's refreshing to finally see powerful, accomplished, career-minded women portrayed in a real way. The plot is exciting & enticing. It's very relatable and charismatic. Not only do they portray the glamour but they portray real struggles (however dramatized of course) that contemporary, accomplished women must face. Each character portrays a women in a different phase of life, which makes the show so interesting and I feel like I've learned something that may be useful. |
