Who needs any other form of TV when you have Sex and the City on DVD? Season 3 has to be my favorite; the characters are given even more depth and nuaince. A perfect balance is reached between comedy and more serious topics; the women are all learning more about themselves, but there are plenty of places to make us laugh.
I would also like to add that I am 24, and I recently turned my 56 yr old mother onto S & the C! To her, it's liberating for women to talk about sex so openly!

I can't decide which season I like the most. With every season, there is that episode that really stands out, but so far every season has been good, and they keep getting better. I know this is a series I will watch for years to come and I'm happy it's out on DVD.

Sex and the City is a DVD must have for today's modern woman... and man. My boyfriend and I are both fans of the show and besides being a good laugh, it opens up a lot of conversation about things we normally wouldn't talk about. I especially love it for girls' night in, so I can gather all my friends in my dorm room and enjoy it toghether.... over and over again!

In a time where good television shows are few and far between, one learns to appreciate the genius of the HBO networks' hit TV shows. Prime time and "Late Nite" TV were formerly dominated by the "main networks": ABC, NBC, CBS, etc... That was until HBO got in on the action. With shows like Six Feet Under, Curb Your Enthusiasm, and the Sopranos, HBO is probably the leading purveyor of good TV today. Sex and the City is probably one of its most enjoyable shows. So that's saying something. As a teenage straight guy, I was definitely a late comer to the series, as, well, let's just say the male heterosexual 18-25 year-old market is not one that Sex and the City is a major factor in. But it damn well should be. This show is written BRILLIANTLY, and takes turns at being both hillarious and touching. It even makes me like Sarah Jessica Parker, and I haven't liked her since "LA Story". Each of the girls has something different to offer us as viewers. Carrie (Parker) keeps us moving from scenario to scenario, Samantha (Kim Cattral) is a single-and-loving-it type that provides much of the sexual humor, Miranda (Cynthia Nixon)is endearing if not a little pathetic, and Charlotte (Kristin Davis) is just simply adorable. Not many shows make me yell at the screen or cheer while I'm watching, but after just two episodes, even I was starting to feel anxiety watching Carrie and Big tip-toe around their issues. Anyone who appreciates great writing and originality will love this show. Also, I have to tip my hat to the people writing the show, and especially the corporate execs at HBO for having the ... to go out while they're still relatively on top. That doesn't happen very often in today's profit-hungry entertainment industry! (I'm looking at you Wachowski brothers) I don't know what to expect from the final 8 episodes, but I do know when that 8th episode rolls around, the day after it is gonna be a very emotional one for the thousands of devoted fans that this show has captured the hearts of.
