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.'

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.

I had seen the first and second seson of the simple life and loved it. I have all three seasons. They are brillant and hillarious. But of course we have ms Paris always looking in the mirror,And nicole cursing.But, that is what makes the simple life dvds sucessful. But, the hole feud going on between them is really dumb. I miss them being togeather. You can't do much about it,Nicole on the other hand I feel is The real star considering the areas of course, but she is just so funny and she makes me laugh every second. Now Paris on the other hand is funny as well but, Not as funny as Nicole. But I really love the girls a lot. Sa Sa sa sa sa sa!!!!!. lol. I love these girls.

'The Simple Life 3 - Interns' was made back when life was simple for Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie. This was before all the coke and DUI busts the girls racked up individually and the eventual jail time they both served as a result of their numerous offenses. It was also the last season they appeared in together as best friends. Soon after 'Interns' aired, Paris announced that she and Nicole were no longer friends nor were they even speaking to each other. So began a very public feud over very private reasons. Despite being contractually obligated to return for a fourth season, the two refused to appear onscreen together. They eventually worked things out and returned for a fifth season but by then they had already been dropped by Fox and viewership was down. Besides the increasingly annoying levels of diva like behavior and the girls' ridiculous sense of entitlement, I think another reason people stopped watching the show was because of how obviously fake it was. The first season you sort of went along with it and believed what you were watching, but after the show became a hit the producers obviously felt the need to go bigger for seasons 2 and 3. The episodes got to be so obviously scripted and acted that you began to wonder why the hell you were even watching it anymore. For me there's a simple explanation: these girls are super hot. Now a lot of people probably don't agree, but I think both of them are quite sexy and therefore found many of the situations they got themselves in in these 16 episodes highly entertaining.

Since this was the longest season you know there are going to be more than a few "filler" episodes that aren't all that great. Examples of this include internships with a fortune teller with attitude, an advertising agency no one's ever heard of including the people that work there, zookeepers, auto mechanics, wedding planners, bakers and a couple other ones I've already forgot about. Highlights include internships at a plastic surgeon's office, a dentist's office, a funeral home, an old folks' home, firefighters, marketing designers for Burger King, newscasters and daycare supervisors to name just a few. These specific episodes were a lot of fun to watch. Even though the situations are so outrageous and staged, the girls and their "unwitting" victims provide a lot of laughs. As a previous reviewer pointed out, Paris comes off really well this season. Whereas in previous seasons she could get quite annoying when it came time to get her hands dirty, she's more than game to jump right into her various internships and try new things. Plus, she proves herself to be quite good with kids (a thought that probably terrifies a lot of people) in several of the episodes, even going so far as to design a room for a boy who doesn't have a bed and sleeps on the floor in his sister's room and (in a precursor to her eventual BFF show) interviewing potential playmates for the adopted daughter of one of their host families. And it's not like Nicole doesn't do anything in these episodes, she's lightning quick at coming up with hilarious comebacks for bosses that try to put her and Paris down. As limited as their individual merits may be, what can I say other than they make a good team.

I try not to watch the episodes when they come out on tv cause i know how awseome they are and i rather watch it all at one time when it comes out on dvd... i have been waiting for this dvd for a long time and it never came out and now its here i just got myne today in the mail..and all i can say is WOW they have outdone themeselves again...!!!! worth every penny and more ...

And I mean that. These girls can make anything funny, and this season they take things up a notch and really let loose. My favorite episode has to be when they are sent to sort mail and then by luch for everyone at the firm they are interning at and they screw everything up ROYALLY, eating everyones food, throwing mail in any bin and making faxes of their breast's and handing them out to the workers. This show is the funniest thing on TV and now it's the funniest thing in my DVD case. All the 4 & 5 star reviews are just added proof that Nicole & Paris serve up some of the biggest laughs in reality (or unreality) TV. Worth every penny (it's cheap so pick it up!)

I'm a very big fan of paris and nicole this is there last dvd when they were still friends.And this is the best season.I give it 10 stars..very good!

As much as I hate Paris and Nicole, it's like a guilty pleasure to see what trouble they will cause next. These shows are completely priceless and interesting. If you want to have a girls night in and watch something funny, try this dvd. Paris/Nicole fans or not, you'll be intrigued.

Hilarious show! I think the best season so far, but buy at TARGET for $5.50!

Great show, Paris is hot.

The funniest part was Paris doing the weather for FOX news in Baltimore.

It was so funny, and the bakery was good too.

The whole season was good.

GREAT.
