Calling all Lipstick Jungle fans!  Want to save the show?  YOU CAN!  All of you need to tell everyone – WATCH IT LIVE!  Do not Tivo/DVR it – watch it live!  Only two more episode’s left!!

Nearly a month after the news first broke that the series may be a goner, scores of you fans are still emailing in—daily—to ask about the show’s fate.

Well, E! just checked in with highly placed sources who work on the show, not to mention the fabulous Brooke Shields herself, and there is some good news…

“We’re still going,” Brooke tells us. “We’re still airing, we’re still on at 9 on Friday. I know that they’ve kept the sets up, and in all senses of the word, we’re still going.”

And according to a high-placed source who works on Lipstick: “I know that they have addressed the back nine…just as far as having Oliver Goldstick, our show runner, start to flesh those episodes out. So there is a game plan for our back nine.”

NBC insiders say that a decision on Lipstick’s fate will come soon, and naturally, will depend on how the ratings are swinging. The season started off with about 5 million viewers, then hovered around 3.5 million for a few weeks, but it has bounced back somewhat in the most recent airing (Dec. 12) with 3.8 million viewers.

A well-placed source close to the decision tells us LJ needs to pull in about a million more viewers during the final two episodes to be considered for reneweal.

Brooke tells us: “I think our biggest problem is that on DVR and TiVo, we’ve got such huge numbers, but then in the live [ratings], I guess advertisers aren’t happy with that that. So they have to figure out how to reconcile that.”

There currently are two more episodes left of Lipstick Jungle: Jan. 2 and Jan. 9 on NBC.

So you know what that means: Only two chances left to try and make a mark on the ratings by telling your friends, colleagues and your mailman to watch.

And you should also know that Brooke and the rest and the cast and crew are most assuredly touched by the fantastic support that has been shown so far.

“The amount of lipstick tubes that have come to the set—they have literally been coming in blocks,” Brooke says. “I was amazed by the outcry when they thought we were canceled. They started sending out lipsticks, so it’s out there, we have the audience. It’s just people have to watch it live, and then watch it on TiVo.”

    I watch this show every week, and continue to do so. im old school, i don’t have a tivo, dvr or even cable. So people please watch it, because for crying out loud…i don’t have very many options for shows!

  2. katrina and Steve Says:

    We watch Lipstick Jungle and never Tivo it!
    We love all the scenarios and is one or our favorite sitcoms.

    Keep it going. The actors are great and the writers are great to. Exciting, over-the-top stories!

  4. E Says:

    The TV industry/ ratings system needs to keep up with technology! People watch shows on DVD, TiVo and iTunes. They can surely find a way to include this in the ratings system. If they’ve given us these viewing options, why can’t they keep track?

    PLEASE SAVE LIPSTICK JUNGLE

  6. Miia Says:

    Please save the show. I’m watching it right now in Finlad. It just started and i really love it. I want it to continue, so there would be something worth to wait every week.
    PLEASE LISTEN TO US FANS IN THIS!

  7. Best Long Lasting Lipstick Says:

    I was looking around for information on lipstick when I stumbled upon your page, I must say I’m quite glad I did as I found your point very informative. I think it’s important for us fashion and beauty conscious individuals to keep up with the current trends as not to fall behind, being self aware of the best options available on the market is not easy, but as the saying goes, ‘beauty is pain’.
