First, I meant to mention this in the spoiler post below, but forgot. NBC is moving “Lipstick Jungle” to Friday’s at 10pm beginning this week! Currently “Lipstick” is still in the TV listings for tonight, but it is supposed to be swapped with “Life On Mars.” So if you Tivo the show and it’s not there, don’t panic! Just make sure you record Friday at 10pm. (I’d Tivo both just to be safe, don’t take it off for tonight.) I actually welcome the move, as I don’t have anything but “Ghost Whisperer” to watch on Friday’s. “Jungle” conflicts with “Sexy Money” tonight for me.

Now onto the thoughts. Sadly Nico has been the one character I’ve found myself bored with lately. I think since she and Kirby aren’t having a lot secret love affair, well they’ve become boring. I did however love her story this week with her brother and father, as we got to learn a bit about her past and where she came from. Also there is something going on between her and Grant. Maybe not on her part, but I think he likes her. There seems to be serious flirting with her on his part. I bet this is going to blossom and will cause big problems for Wendy!

Victory, who is my normal Zzzzz character, I’ve been loving. I think it’s the lack of Joe the jerk and the introduction of Rodrigo. Her and Rodrigo are hot together. However it doesn’t take a brainiac to see this won’t last. Joe is jealous, and she was jealous when Joe showed up with the supermodel on his arm. Frankly I don’t think she should have been jealous, but sickened that he’d do that. It was his philandering that was a big reason she dumped him. Also it seems they went the predictable route with Rodrigo, having him have a daughter who of course hates Victory. Boo hiss! Been done in every romantic comedy out there! I loved when Victory stood up to Rodrigo and told him that he couldn’t pick which side of her that he dated, they all had baggage, even him. Way to go! I think she should have gone a step further and pointed out his baggae was tween daughter who would hate any woman he dated that wasn’t her mother.

I’ve been loving Wendy lately now that they’ve given her a good juicy storyline. However at the same time I was banging my head on my desk. I know they did what they did to get her fired and move her story along, at the same time dumb move on Wendy’s part! Not what she did for Noah, but how she told Grant. Grant basically begged her to give him a reason not to fire her, even saying “Say you were planning to hold the movie till his death and release it.” She could have told him that she knew he would be amazing in the part and it would be his last film, that their studio would have produced it. It wouldn’t have been a lie! Again, I know they did this to have her fired and lead to a new storyline for her.
