LIPSTICK JUNGLE: Final Episode of the Season? Or of the Series?

(www.nbc.com/lipstickjungle) <— Lipstick Jungle’s Official Site.
Lipstick Jungle’s supposed final episode aired this past Sunday. Lipstick Jungle (also known as Brooke Shields’s baby) has been going through some cancellation troubles. Lipstick Jungle has endured low ratings, poor viewership, and a general batch of uninspired reviews. Although all signs point to a clear-cut cancellation, NBC has been rather vague as to their intentions with the program. The January 9th episode aired under the description of season finale instead of series finale. Weird.
At the same time, the “season” finale felt incredibly heavy. Nico abruptly ended the romance between her and her boss and quickly started back up with Kirby. Victory goes through a roller coaster of emotions while her parents meet Joe. The pair ends up getting through it fine and stronger ever. As for Wendy, she has a serious boding moment with her delinquent brat of a child while her husband is out on tour unable to seriously help.
In my opinion, the season is over. The montage at the end of the finale was the big indicator. Sweet, heartfelt moments throughout the past seasons faded in and out of each other with equally sweet music. What do I say to this? Oh, well, Good riddance. There will always be a new hot show with beautiful working ladies in New York City.
