Lipstick Jungle is an American comedy-drama television series created by DeAnn Heline and Eileen Heisler, which aired on NBC from February 7, 2008, to January 9, 2009. Based on Candace Bushnell's best-selling novel, the show was produced by Universal Media Studios and starred Lindsay Price as Victory Ford, Kim Raver as Nico Reilly, and Brooke Shields as Wendy Healy, three successful friends navigating careers and personal lives in New York City.

The series faced significant changes during production, including cast replacements and creative team turnover. The first season had seven episodes due to the 2007–2008 Writers Guild of America strike, while the second season premiered on September 24, 2008. Despite moving time slots multiple times, Lipstick Jungle faced cancellation rumors in November 2008 but was renewed for a potential third season depending on network plans.

The show was officially canceled in March 2009 after Lindsay Price's departure to another project. It aired internationally on channels like Living in the UK, TG4 in Ireland, and others.
