Lipstick Jungle - Series 2 - CompleteLipstick Jungle is, if you’ve not met it before, a show about three women living their lives in the heart of Manhattan. Between them, they have to juggle their careers, families, romances and fashions, all the while generating a fair few chuckles a long the way.
Sound familiar? Unsurprisingly, Lipstick Jungle was firmly targeted at those looking to fill the void that Sex and the City left in their lives, but that does manage to undersell it slightly. Based on the book by Candace Bushnell, the show’s second season is both confident and entertaining, and deserves analysis in its own right, rather than straight comparison to its higher-profile rival. It does have a few problems, though. Brooke Shields as movie executive Wendy struggles in the role, and that puts a greater workload on the back of Lindsay Price’s Victory and Kim Raver’s Nico. Furthermore, it’s a little inconsistent, and doesn’t quite (despite its best efforts) manage to step out of Sex and the City’s shadow. But those quibbles aside, Lipstick Jungle is still a very entertaining and under-appreciated show, and it’s hard not to get value for money out of this box set. Sadly, this is the last season of Lipstick Jungle, though, given that the decision was made to axe it. It’s not the first show that’s deserved a better fate at the hand of television commissioners, and it won’t be the last. But it is a cut above what its fate may lead you to believe. Recommended. --Jon Foster
