Lipstick Jungle: Season 2, Episode 1 "Chapter Eight: Pandora's Box" (F-)
Rest assured that I would never watch this show of my own volition after the dreadful pilot last year. I saw this year's premiere as part of a Fall Preview Party NBC put on, which initially was supposed to showcase previews of "Knight Rider," "Kath & Kim," "My Own Worst Enemy," and "Crusoe" but at the last minute was changed to the season premieres of "Chuck" (which I love!), "Life," and "Lipstick Jungle." I figured I may as well stick around. This show has gotten even worse. All three leads are uniformly terrible, and their characters are completely uninteresting. The show has the most uneven pacing I've ever seen, going from attempted comedy to poorly played-out drama in seconds without the slightest acknowledgment of a transition. The show now appears to be relying on a feisty Rosie Perez and a botoxed Mary Tyler Moore to carry the show, and it's terrible. Do NOT tune in, whatever you do.
