What to Know

Critics Consensus

A poorly conceived copy of Sex and the City, Lipstick Jungle lacks the wit, self-awareness, and warmth of the original HBO series.

Julia Raeside Guardian Never has such a no-brainer been such a non-starter. Lipstick Jungle is a wholly cynical bid to repeat the success of its predecessor, but totally lacks the wit, warmth or integrity of the original. Sep 6, 2019 Full Review Diane Werts Newsday "Lipstick Jungle" is - much like ABC's "Cashmere Mafia," only more so - about punishing women for straying outside the fairy tale. Sep 6, 2019 Full Review Maureen Ryan Chicago Tribune [The] depictions of life, even fantasy versions of life, are just false, predictable and cynical, through and through. Sep 6, 2019 Full Review Robert Abele L.A. Weekly Lipstick Jungle is a strangely dour affair... and is almost misshapen in its clunky blend of drama and comedy. But most important, it inspires little confidence in the plausibility of its sister tribe, or the entertainment value in seeing them squirm. Sep 6, 2019 Full Review Rick Porter Hartford Courant The third episode feels a little bit more sure of itself, but it's not enough to dismiss the feeling that there's nothing new in this jungle. Sep 6, 2019 Full Review Rob Owen Pittsburgh Post-Gazette "Jungle" is the better show on most counts, but it still fails to create a clamor for more. It's a show that makes you think, "Well, that's fine," and then never tune in again. In TV's crowded landscape, that's simply not good enough. Sep 6, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews
