The simple life is saved

Fans of The Simple Life, all two of you, can rest easy — the show has been saved. E! Entertainment has picked up the show for yet another season.

After the girls’ mysterious bust-up in January (05) and falling ratings, the Fox network announced there was no room for The Simple Life last month (OCT05).

However, E! announced Monday (28NOV05) they would take over the show, altering the format so Hilton and Richie do not have to share screen time.

Ted Harbert, president and CEO of E! Networks, enthuses, “We are thrilled to welcome Paris, Nicole and The Simple Life to E!. The addition of this huge comedy hit to our schedule will continue to distinguish E! as the leader in entertainment, celebrity and pop culture television.”

The fourth season - dubbed TILL DEATH DO US PART - will star Hilton and Richie taking turns to play “wife” to a family, with the kids and husband deciding each week, who did a better job at running the house.

E! have also obtained the rights to the first three seasons of The Simple Life and debut the fourth in Spring 2006.
