i think i do, maybe...i'm not sure
I’m not sure where I stand. I’m not sure if I liked it or hated it. Of course, I’m talking about Lipstick Jungle. I’ve watched it twice, now. I thought I was hooked during the first five minutes. But as the show went on, I don’t know? I kept losing interest. The plots and storylines were expected and predictable. I mean the scene where Kim Raver’s character, Nico is in the car, crying after having just cheated on her husband, was very Diane Lane in Unfaithful. But, the actual scene where she cheated on her husband was HOT! I spent an entire hour torn between love and hate: I loved it, I hated it, I loved it, I hated it. Unfortunately, watching it a second time was of no significant help. Perhaps, I expected too much? Maybe I expected/demanded a level of greatness that was impossible to fulfill? No, I don’t think that was it.
At the beginning, I truly liked Brooke Shields Character, Wendy. She was fun, smart, sexy, and talented. She was a wife, a mother, and a top executive to boot. Her character’s dialogue started off strong and sharp and fun, but gradually lost its power. It became boring and humdrum. The writers seemed to be trying too hard. There were certain lines where you just knew her character would never say things like that. Then there was Kim Raver’s character, Nico. I’ll be honest; I was surprised she was cast in this role. Though, I really don’t know much about her. I know she was on that show with the cops and fire fighters a few years ago, but other than that, I know very little. And I actually like that. I like that I don’t have a defined impression of her. I really only hated the car scene of hers. I wish there would have been more background information on her marriage at the beginning of the episode. It would have made the affair more understandable. Other than that, I liked her character. But my favorite, by far, was Lindsay Price’s character, Victory Ford (You can’t just say, Victory. You have to say, Victory Ford, you just have to). I have loved Lindsay since she played, Janet Sosna, Steve’s girlfriend/wife on the last three seasons of Beverly Hills 90210. I just love her. And I love her character, Victory Ford! She’s sarcastic, witty, funny, sexy, smart and has a wardrobe to die for. Her character is by far, the most fun and entertaining to watch. And is why I will be tuning in again, Thursday at 10pm. Hopefully, after this episode I will know whether I enjoy it or not. I think I do, maybe…I’m not sure.
*Thank God the writers strike is over. Now I can finally watch new episodes of 30 Rock and Pushing Daisies!
