Product Description All seven episodes from the first season of the US series, based on the novel by Candace Bushnell (Sex and the City), about the glitzy, up and down lives of three businesswomen friends in New York. Successful movie-exec Wendy (Brooke Shields) juggles family life and her career, up-and-coming designer Victory (Lindsay Price) yearns for the big time and finding Mr Right, while fashion magazine editor Nico (Kim Raver) has some serious marriage issues to deal with. Episodes comprise: 'Pilot', 'Nothing Sacred', 'Pink Poison', 'Bombay Highway', 'Dressed to Kill', 'Take the High Road' and 'Carpe Threesome'. From Amazon.co.uk Based on the Candace Bushnell novel of the same name, Lipstick Jungle is what the ladies on Sex and the City might have been like, had they been married characters rather than New York singletons. Brooke Shields stars as Wendy Healy, a high-powered movie mogul who can't get through a day without talking to (or lunching with) her best friends Nico Reilly (Kim Raver, 24) and Victory Ford (Lindsay Price, Beverly Hills, 90210). Nico is the editor of a high-end lifestyles magazine who is making up for her lack of a sex life at home by having an affair with a young photographer's assistant. Victory, the trio's single gal, is a fashion designer whose creations have fallen out of favour, but is adored by her rich boyfriend Joe Bennett (Andrew McCarthy). Each is a fixture on the annual "New York's 50 Most Powerful Women" list, but their day-to-day problems of juggling careers with demanding personal lives (i.e., men!) are at the forefront of each episode. As superficial fluff, the show is a fun watch. Will Wendy's former nanny write a tell-all book? How does Nico juggle a husband she loves with a young lover she lusts after? And is Victory really so naive that she won't figure out that her ambitious assistant stole all her best designs? Shields is a charming actress with a decent knack for comedy and Price is good enough as the flaky friend. But with lines like, "When they smell fear in this town, it's over," it's Raver who lends passion and credibility to this series--which is much better than the so-so book on which it is based, but not yet up to the quality that made Sex and the City a must-see show. -- Jae-Ha Kim Synopsis Based on the best-selling book by Candace Bushnell, author of Sex and the City, this fun and sexy series follows the lives of three ambitious women in Manhattan: Wendy (Brooke Shields, Suddenly Susan), a successful movie executive who struggles with juggling her career and family; Victory (Lindsay Price, Beverly Hills 90210), a fashion designer with big hopes for her professional and love life; and Nico (Kim Raver, Third Watch), a no-nonsense magazine editor. Though their lives in the big city may have their ups and downs, they always manage to keep their good humour and, more importantly, they always have each other. Like Sex and the City, the main attraction here is the show's modern take on romance, glamorous portrayal of urban life, and daring humour. This collection presents every episode of the series' debut season.
