Guess that puts a fork in Lipstick Jungle. Last I heard NBC still hadn’t officially announced that it would be cancelled. Or am I wrong about that? The whole thing went back and forth so I have no idea anymore. Sad face
I really liked LJ. But I am super-duper excited about this GG spin off and frakkin’ Brittany Snow!!!
So that means that Lip Stick Jungle is official cancelled??
NBC offered Lipstick Jungle to cable network but no response.
So I guess it’s dead.
Oh, wow… I didn’t realize it was 1986 again. :]
Wow, Andrew McCarthy and the 80′s together again? I’ll watch for sure!
