If you watched the first season of “Lipstick Jungle,” then two of the three primary storylines of the Season 2 premiere will not surprise you…well, not in general, anyway.Īlthough the season finale found Nico Reilly (Kim Raver) trying to put her affair with photographer Kirby Atwood (Robert Buckley) behind her and repair her marriage – a decision which came about almost entirely as a result of the guilt she felt when her husband, Charles (Christopher Cousins), had a heart attack – things between them suddenly grow cold again when Charles presents Nico with a framed partially-nude photograph of someone who reminded him of her.

Still, when it was announced back in June that Mary Tyler Moore would be appearing in the show’s second season, playing the mother of Brooke Shields’ character, Wendy, I didn’t hesitate in deciding that I’d be interested in checking out the season premiere. I can’t really tell you that I was a huge fan of the first season of “Lipstick Jungle,” neither when it aired nor after it was released on DVD I liked it well enough, but while I enjoyed the three female leads individually, I had some serious issues with the premise that they’d actually be friends.
