Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com

The biggest joke of The Simple Life concept is that the audience is in on the joke. Granted, the joke isn't always that funny, but it's funnier when the girls -- Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie, a pair of pampered royal New York brats -- aren't in on it. Like its predecessors, this compilation edition of the reality TV show continues the same basic conceit of plopping the girls in outrageous blonde-out-of-water situations and watching the sparks fly. This time they're tasked to be interns and actually work ("Work?!? Us?!?") at places like a plastic surgery clinic, an airline, a mortuary, a nursing home, an automotive shop, etc., etc. Of course it's all set up as an intentional joke on the sometimes angry, sometimes befuddled, sometimes good-humored "employers" and host families they're stuck with. More than that, it's just a series of staged scenes with some goofy video verite added when necessary. Any sense of comic timing comes from the ironic editing, silly sound effects, and equivalent of spit-takes reaction shots from the real people around them who can't believe their eyes. We shouldn't believe our eyes either, because it really is all a put-on. The train-wreck appeal of The Simple Life is that the girls go around making fun of lower class and white trash living, but they're pretty much complete idiots themselves. The result is obviously manipulative, but sometimes clever. There's great comfort in laughing at them, not with them.--Ted Fry

5.0 out of 5 stars Oddly Endearing., March 15, 2006

By	Johnny Kenton (Los Angeles, CA USA) - See all my reviews

Back to their typical mischievous ways, the designer duo reak havoc as interns in this third installment of the popular FOX television series (which took over a year to be released on DVD).

The third season showcases a thinner Nicole Richie and a journey a la Greyhound Bus down the East Coast with everyday passengers and interesting characters along the way.

Owning the two previous seasons, I can definitely agree that the hijinks are never short of hilarious and the language is never short of "do you love it?"

Whether they were attempting to change oil or diapers, photocopying/bubblewrapping their body parts, or giving the elderly a fashion show at a retirement home, the girls managed to get some above satisfactory reports from employers.

They also rekindled romance among members of the host families and used their hard earned money to give back.

The girls seldom take the jobs seriously, but that's what we love about them. They also possess an alluring charm that makes them human and an overpowering appeal that makes them simply irresistible.

4.0 out of 5 stars The Best Simple Life so far..., April 20, 2006

By	M. barajas "Pre-Law-Journalist23" (California) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Of all the other seasons Id have to say this is the best!!! Especially because they are a lot more episodes where Paris actually tries to work and to help others not like any of the past seasons where she doesnt want to get dirty or she doesnt even try. This season has more comedy to it and Paris shows america that she is a nice intelligent person and that she is not just a 'dumb blonde.'

5.0 out of 5 stars The Simple Life makes a comeback., March 27, 2006

By	Joanna (New York, NY) - See all my reviews

The first season of "The Simple Life" was indeed a classic, it was simply hilarious and outrageous. It left me with great expectations for the second season. While the second season did not come close to the first, the third season definitely makes a strong comeback. Nicole Richie is as crazy as ever and brings back that spontaneity and scandal that we loved in the first season. If you enjoyed the first season, you'll definitely love the third season as well.
