The Simple Life Cancelled
Monday July 30, 2007

Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie starring in "The Simple Life."
E! Network
No more reality checks for Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie. Usmagazine.com has confirmed that their reality series The Simple Life will not be picked up next season by the E! network.
A source at E! tells Us that overexposure is to blame for the show's cancellation.
"We felt like the real life drama of their lives overshadowed anything happening on the show," says the insider. "Viewers would see Paris all day long on the news about her going to jail, so they didn't care about seeing her camping with kids. It just was too played out."
The source adds that Richie became increasingly difficult to work with last season.
"Paris carried the show. She was the one willing to do anything," says the source. "Nicole was the diva."
According to The Insider, the show could get a second chance at life if another network decides to pick up the series (the show's first season debuted on the Fox network before later being picked up by E!).
On Friday, Richie, 25, was sentenced to four days in jail after pleading guilty to driving under the influence, her second DUI conviction since 2003.
Hilton, 26, served 23 days in jail last June for violating her probation on a reckless driving conviction.

It's done, and the fork should've been stuck in it ages ago.

Nicole's right hand looks like it's trying to sneak down for a good scratch.

Never saw the show, so I can't say I'm terribly disappointed.

It's about fucking time. I can't believe it actually survived ONE full season, let alone, what, three more? Pathetic. I watched a bit of season one and that is it. I fucking hate these tramps.

Yeah, thanks. We were over them a long time ago.

Good news

Wow, look how good Nicole use to look.

I actually enjoyed the first season, but midway through the 2nd season, it "jumped the shark" ...

I'm surprised they brought it back again, because this season was a joke. It was so obviously staged ...

Me too. Nicole was surprisingly very witty.

I kinda liked it but it did get overplayed and boring..guess Nicole won't be making much money..what else did she have besides a tv show and book.. I did really like her humor tho..she does that very well. Paris has like everything music, clothes, perfume ,and whatever so it wont hurt her..
