NBC- TV UPFRONT PROMOTIONALS IN NEW YORK

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 13 (UPI) -- NBC is canceling its U.S. television programs "Lipstick Jungle" and "My Own Worst Enemy," sources told EW.com.

The network declined to comment about the report, the entertainment magazine said on its Web site.

However, EW.com also said the word from multiple insiders is that no new episodes of the shows have been ordered because NBC isn't happy with the ratings they have been racking up.

Based on Candace Bushnell's book of the same name, "Lipstick Jungle" is an hourlong show about a group of high-powered female friends living and working in New York. It stars Brooke Shields, Kim Raver and Lindsay Price and is in its second season.

The freshman drama "My Own Worst Enemy" stars Christian Slater as a suburban husband and father who realizes he has been living a double life as a secret agent when a chip implanted in him to help him keep his personalities separate malfunctions.
