WHAT’S
IT ABOUT THEN?
This
3 disc box set of seasons two
and three of MTV's fly on the
wall celeb reality series shows
some real growth in the
relationship between married
singers Jessica Simpson and Nick
Lachey, now married a year the
couple seem more comfortable
within themselves in relation to
each other but are finding it
difficult to deal with the
outside forces that keep
them
in the spotlight, from the ever present paparazzi to the sometimes over
eager manager (who just happens to be Jessica's father). You do get the
feeling whilst watching the episodes that Jessica must be a really good
actress, surely no one could be that disingenuous but then
again...
The
key theme of these episodes seems to be the struggle of the two of them
actually finding the time to be together, what with concerts, endless
photo shoots and the whole business of being a "star couple",
some of the best moments come from when the pair do find the time to
just be themselves and be together, such as a trip to the Kentucky Derby
and spending Christmas with their families.
The
celebrity reality series has been overdone somewhat of late but The
Newlyweds was one of the first and certainly one of the most
interesting, not as seedy as The Osbornes and not as insane as The Anna
Nicole Smith Show, one is left with the impression that both Jessica and
Nick are relatively normal and were they not famous would be content to
live out the suburban dream. Definitely worth a look.

SPECIAL FEATURES?
