Lipstick Jungle Quirky and Quick-Witted

A couple months ago, it would have been hard to imagined NBC’s much-hyped Lipstick Jungle triumphing when ABC’s painfully-similar series Cashmere Mafia already had a head-start. Fortunately, Lipstick is a superior series is almost every way. Focusing on three of New York’s most powerful women (Brooke Shields, Kim Raver and Lindsay Price), Lipstick Jungle matches its heart with humor found in fast-paced and refreshing dialogue as well as dynamic and unpredictable characters. Lipstick Jungle also carries a supporting cast every bit as accomplished as the leads, including Paul Blackthorne (The Dresden Files), Julian Sands (Rose Red) and Andrew McCarthy (Pretty in Pink), lending a sense of balance ABC’s Cashmere Mafia otherwise lacked. Lipstick is one of the few shows of television that lives up to its hype. Catch Lipstick Jungle on NBC Thursdays at 9:00 P.M.
