Editorial Review:
How Crazy can it get when two rich, sexy, big-city blondes, Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie, find themselves knee-deep in rural reality, looking for fun in all the wrong places yet trying to survive without credit cards, nightclubs, and Saks 5th Avenue! With wild, you-gotta-see-it-to-believe-it outtakes, this is the show that's got everybody talking! So lock up your sons and see what happens when the girls with everything go from filthy rich…to just plan filthy!
Description of The Simple Life - The Complete First Season:
The hook of The Simple Life is irresistible: Two wealthy, pampered young women go from upper-crust Los Angeles to an Arkansas farm to prove that they can survive without their cell phones and credit cards. As hotel heiress Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie (daughter of pop star Lionel) blithely move in with a farm family, the Ledings, the culture clash immediately becomes a train wreck; when asked to pluck chickens, Richie declares, "I'm not plucking anything but my eyebrows." They try to work a series of jobs (at a dairy farm, at a fast-food joint, at a livestock auction), but they possess not a jot of work ethic or any sense of the consequences of failure. Like the girls themselves, this 2003 reality show becomes both fascinating and repellent, comic and horrifying. It's like watching alien beings trying to masquerade as people. --Bret Fetzer
The Simple Life - The Complete First Season Reviews:
..... 
2009-11-07 - I never received it! Anyways, I'm a huge fan of Paris. But I hate Nicole!
Paris Hilton = Simple Life 
2009-10-28 - I only watch this show for Paris Hilton and the humor. I hate Nicole Richie. Paris & Nicole both seem to be "dumb" through the series, but they're not like that in real life. Well, probably Nicole. If you watch "Paris, Not France" it's a full Paris Hilton documentary. She tells you that, for them to star in the show, they got to play dumb. They did, but Nicole seems to have the most trouble in life, with all her DUIs, drugs, parties, popping out kids every 9 months. Its horrible, she's just gross. I LOVE Paris Hilton! Yes Paris has been to jail, maybe even tried drugs but Paris only went to jail once! Nicole goes in and out of jail almost every day. Nicole says she "changed" and her life is better than ever. But a kid or 2 kids cant change the way you look at life, maybe the way you look at your kids, but honey, I have 4 kids and I never changed nor did my personality. You know what they say, "once a junkie, always a junkie." The show is hilarious, and keeps you laughing from the beginning to end. But if you take it seriously, your head will be turning from side to side in disgust. Be cool with it.
I LOVE YA PARIS
Simple Life review
2009-08-28 - It's still, till this day the best reality show out there. It's damn funny!
Might sound biased because we're fans of hers. Those who dont care for Paris will probably never admit it's a funny show, but they know it is. We still watch 'em!

Stupidly funny! 
2009-04-29 - First season of a reality tv show that can be described as nothing but 'stupidly funny'. If you're into Paris or Nicole you need nothing else to grant yourself a goodtime. Whatch both of them leaving their luxury lives and heading to a farm where they have to live without credit cards, cellphone and everything they're used to. Whatch them turn the little country city of Altus upsidedown and making new friends by learning the meaning of family tradition.
This pack contains the entire first season plus extras like missing videos, funny stories and even a preview of what was about to come like Paris and her sister Nikki packing for the trip. It's a SHAME it DOESN'T have the SIMPLE LIFE REUNION as well.
If you like cheesy fun, don't miss it! It's impossible not to laugh with them girls!
First attempt at seeing culture class
2009-01-05 - I admit I ignored this when it first aired on television and I refused to take part of the office chatter about it. After seeing it not too long ago (along with the other seasons), I see the obvious humor. Knowing that this is a reality TV show, however, also made me a little sickened to see the supposedly innocent participants with Paris and Nicole go along with whatever their task at hand was.
Paris Hilton, famous for being famous, and Nicole Richie, daughter of pop star Lionel Ritchie, are transported from their glamorous Hollywood lives to live on a farm in Arkansas with a rural family. Classic fish out of water scenes will emerge, having to deal with rural life verses city life. What is really unbelievable is how Paris and Nicole have never had to do even the most trivial of mundane tasks, like pumping their own gas or shopping at Wal-Mart. Paris goes so far when Wal-Mart is mentioned in dinnertime conversation to say "What is Wal-Mart? Do they sell, like, wall stuff?" It's hard for me to believe that even the wealthiest of the wealthy don't know what Wal-Mart is. Then again, the poorest of the poor don't know what Channel is either, even though both labels are famous.
It was kind of fun, kind of rude - but then again that's what Paris and Nicole are all about to begin with.
