NBC is still billing tonight's episode of
Lipstick Jungle as a season — not series — finale, but it's hard to tell how much hope there actually is for the show to return. The buzz has been that the show
could return if ratings picked up — but with just 4.2 million viewers watching the most recent episode, will that be enough?
So while I'm trying to maintain hope going into tonight's finale, I'm going to approach it like it's the last chance I might have to hang out with Wendy, Victory, and Nico.
On this week's ad for Natasha Bedingfield's music next-to-last episode of
Lipstick Jungle, many of our characters go out on a limb for love — and none more so than Victory, who spends most of her time cooking up the perfect proposal for Joe. Wendy, meanwhile, drags Shane into counseling to talk about his desire to go on tour-slash-flee from his family, and Nico gets smooched in an elevator! Lots of stuff here with only one episode to go, so to talk about it, just .
Hey,
Lipstick Jungle fans, I hope your New Year's celebrations are all over — or that you've got ample TiVo space — because the show returns tonight with the first of what could be its final two episodes.
When we
last saw our ladies, things were all kind of tense in Wendy's marriage, with Shane about to take off on tour with Natasha Bedingfield. Meanwhile, Victory was going to propose to Joe, and Nico and Griffin were getting flirty.
As we get closer to the holidays, celebabies are all bundled up for the cold and dressed up for seasonal festivities. Check out the slideshow to see what a few of our favorite lil faces, including Levi McConaughey and Harlow Madden, were up to this week.

This week's episode of
Lipstick Jungle really made me sad that
things aren't looking good for the show's future. It wasn't that the episode was so good on its own, necessarily — it just set into motion a lot of interesting stories, like Nico's maternal impulses and Wendy's faltering marriage, that I'm not sure we'll get to see through to the end. Ready to talk about it?

The girls got dressed up this week for an autism benefit although Wendy found the whole party quite uncomfortable. Nico had trouble at work when a member of her family became involved in some breaking news but she tries to help out. Victory learns the hard lesson that you should never mix business and pleasure.
On this week's
Lipstick Jungle, Nico is loving her taste of motherhood, but Kirby is less convinced that he wants to be in a permanent state of child-rearing. Meanwhile, Victory has some tender moments with Maddie, and Shane keeps pressuring Wendy to consider having another kid. To chat about it, just .
The second series continued last night with our new favourite New York ladies as Victory tries to build up her business, Nico tries to move on and Wendy fulfills someones dying wish.
