A long day at the office trying to finish a series of newspaper columns meant I missed the screening of "Never Back Down" last night. But I got home just in time to catch "Lipstick Jungle" which will have its first season finale next week. The previews look great as Nico's boring hubby has a heart attack while she is in bed with young stud Kirby! Kim Raver is a beautiful woman and terrific in this role but whenever there's a scene that calls for Kirby (Robert Buckley) to have his shirt off, I sorta forget about everyone else in the frame! What an absolute hottie and how smart of the show to have a shirtless scene almost every episode. They did get out of the bedroom last night though to go to Ireland on a business trip. Brooke Shields comes too - unexpectedly - and finds out about boytoy. The fight between she and Raver was so terrific because the harsh words were said - real bitchy stuff - but like the "Sex and the City" girls, you could see the deep hurt and pain they cause on both sides. If I have one quibble it's the romance between Lindsey Price and Andrew McCarthy. It was fun at first, him flying her to Paris for dinner and all these grand gestures, but now he's coming off as too clueless and creepy. She moves in and he has waiting for her basically every pair of shoes, dress, nightgown etc. that a woman could want there waiting for her. It's a bit much. I like both actors a lot and hope they can be put on a more realstic path when the show returns. I know at least seven more episodes have been ordered and I hope they will be aired in the fall and not held for mid-season. Keep the buzz going NBC!
