A gaggle of single Manhattan women experience the ups and downs of dating in this comedic HBO series that has earned wild popularity for its honesty regarding women's attitudes toward sex and relationships, as well as for its racy content. Sarah Jessica Parker stars as Carrie Bradshaw, the writer of a relationship column, who still has none of the answers. Though the men in her life come and go, Carrie is always surrounded by her friends: sex-hungry publicist Samantha Jones (Kim Cattrall), independent lawyer Miranda Hobbes (Cynthia Nixon), and Park Avenue princess Charlotte York (Kristin Davis). The four women couldn't be more different in their careers and romantic lives, but they come together over laughter and tears, especially where men are concerned. This collection gathers all six seasons of the show loved by women (and secretly watched by men).

All That Sex and The City, You Gotta Have It!
| Author's Rating: |

Pros: Great series, insight into women/men and dating, can watch all 6 seasons at once!
Cons: You'll be left wanting more... but hold on, the movie is coming!
The Bottom Line:
So well-written, it may just remind you of you and your friends! Worth owning, or at least renting. GREAT series!
Six great seasons of Carrie, Samantha, Miranda, and Charlotte gave us the most real and unedited version of the modern dating world I’ve ever seen. And, it was packed with the comedy and reality of trying to find yourself (and perhaps the perfect guy), while helping your friends to do the same. It explores the day-to-day, but more importantly, night-to-night singledom. It’s so much more than just a New York show, but that is a good backdrop for a story that’s gritty, real, smart and full of great moments.
This is truly one of the best gifts I got this year. As a girl in her early 30s, I can only hope to have some of the fun and excitement these women are having, a few years from now. In case you’ve been living under a rock, here’s the story in a nutshell… Sex and the City is based on Candace Bushnell's books. Sarah Jessica Parker stars as Carrie Bradshaw, a writer of a column ironically called "Sex and the City." The story revolves around her and her friends in Manhattan. There’s nice girl/Miss Priss Charlotte (Kristin Davis), hard-edged lawyer Miranda (Cynthia Nixon), and party girl/sexaholic Samantha (Kim Cattrall).
The series is packed with interesting dating issues, such as how to ‘have sex like a man,’ being monogamous/getting a guy to commit, getting dumped via Post-It, metrosexuals and so much more! Carrie’s main squeeze is the elusive Mr. Big, played by Chris Noth. Sure, she has her other interests, but her heart leads her back to Big time and again. Then, there are bigger ‘life’ issues like dealing with cancer and infertility.
The show is part comedy, part drama, part how-to dress with style. It’s definitely worth a look for any woman going through man trouble, or for any man looking to understand women better. And it makes an EXCELLENT gift. I loooooove it and can’t wait for the movie!!!
