Newlyweds: Nick & Jessica or just Newlyweds was a reality television show that was produced and aired by MTV that followed the lives of husband and wife Nick Lachey and Jessica Simpson.
The show first aired in August 2003 and ran for several seasons, with 41 episodes in total. The last season started on January 26, 2005, and the last episode aired on March 30, 2005.
Simpson and Lachey were married in October, 2002 and filed for divorce in December, 2005. On Friday June 30th 2006 Jessica and Nick's divorce became final and they returned to single, unmarried persons.
Overview
Part of the show's gimmick is displaying Simpson's ignorance, playing on the popular stereotype of "dumb blondes". Perhaps the most famous example comes from the first episode, in which Simpson, confronted with a can of Chicken of the Sea tuna, asked Lachey "Is this chicken, what I have, or is this fish? I know it's tuna, but it says 'Chicken by the Sea'".
Because cameramen are constantly following the couple, there have been several incidences during the production of the show that have caused tension between the couple. #redirect According to interviews with Nick and Jessica, the largest of these is the inability to be intimate with each other at certain times, or to have private conversations when they want to.
