Product Description:
Sex this good can't last forever...but Carrie Bradshaw and her three best friends - Miranda Charlotte and Samantha - are back for one last fling sure to be scintillating and unpredictable as the metropolis they live in. It's the last hurrah for Carrie and Co. with more new episodes of the sixth - and final - season of HBO's smash-hit comedy series Sex and the City!Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: COMEDY Rating: NR UPC: 026359232923 Manufacturer No: 92329
Amazon.com:
With these eight episodes, HBO's grand sitcom concluded, leaving untold numbers of women--and many men--feeling deprived. The six-year series certainly did not outlast its welcome; the final season is some of the best TV had to offer in 2004. In many ways, the eight episodes served as a single finale, with all four characters approaching a kind of destiny and happiness, the theme of this last half-season (which aired weeks after the first half). Carrie (Sarah Jessica Parker) continues her romance with Russian artist (Mikhail Baryshnikov), a flippantly arrogant man who's been around the block, but able to supply Carrie's needed desire for magic. Miranda (Cynthia Nixon) has settled down with Steve (David Eigenberg), but there is more that will change with her, including her address. Charlotte (Kristin Davis) continues to make baby plans now that the husband slot is filled quite nicely (Evan Handler). Samantha (Kim Cattrall) brings a good sense of drama to the show with a breast-cancer scare.
Going down the final stretch--and Samantha's cancer--gives the series a more serious tone, but there's always a jab to tickle the funny bone: Miranda's awkwardness with happiness, Charlotte's latest passion, Carrie typing someplace new, and Samantha getting into Paris Hilton territory. Like any series winding down, there is a wedding, a baby, old faces popping up, and some star-ladened new ones (like creative consultant Julia Sweeney as a nun). In the final two-part episode, 'An American in Paris,' Carrie faces her romantic destiny, but also solidifies herself as a fashion icon, an Audrey Hepburn for 21st-century television. In the penultimate episode, she asks her friends an emotional question: 'What if I never met you?' Certainly fans can ask of themselves the same question and reminisce how much better TV became since they first tuned in these four women of the City.
For the last of the DVD sets, the folks behind SATC give their fans a few more DVD extras. As we find out in the near-hourlong 2004 U.S. Comedy Arts Festival Seminar (with executive producer Michael Patrick King, Sarah Jessica Parker, and the writing team), the alternate endings seen here were false leads to throw off the press. Thank goodness--what fan would want one of these endings? More enjoyable is the 11 minutes of deleted scenes from the run of the show. King's expert touches on the commentary are fun to listen to, if a lovefest. And speaking of love, the two farewell tributes are filled with reminiscences and favorite clips, all done with a beautiful fondness for this series. --Doug Thomas

Rating: - Great Show, but the Packaging Needs Work
Sex and the City is a fabulous show and this is one of the better seasons. I've watched these DVDs over and over, and while the episodes are always entertaining, the packaging leaves a little to be desired.
The plastic case that all the DVDs come in starts to fall apart at the edges after opening it up several times. And there's no episode guide inside, so if you're looking for a particular episode, you'll have to put each DVD in your player to look for it, or search the web.
I still recommend buying it though, because it's one of those DVD sets you'll watch over and over again. I feel like I got my money's worth, even if my cases do need some tape to stay together.
Rating:  - I So LOve Sex and The City
I so love Sex and The City. I have all of the series and I just can not get enough. It is such a true story about women and I can relate to all of these women in the show. I think that the show should have never being canceled because that means that I have to find some other show to watch and that is hard to do.
Rating: - OK, is NYC the "Fifth Lady" OR is it Carrie's boyfriend??
I'm referring to the bonus materials on Season 6, Part 2, which includes two superficial tributes to the creator, writers, cast and crew of SATC. Someone (Darren Star, maybe?) says that NYC is "the fifth lady". Elsewhere in the same tribute, is a clip of Carrie saying she's been on a date with NYC for 18 years, "and it's getting serious." Ah, it was the Fleet Week episode. As she walks away from the visiting Louisiana sailor who really didn't care for NYC, she says, in a voiceover, "I can't have *no one* [sic] talking s--t about my boyfriend."
I must say, in the tributes, Sarah Jessica Parker looks far more beautiful than Carrie did in all six seasons.
I took a star off because of the too-frequent commentary by the insufferable Kathy Griffin (and really, once would have been too much). Really, what was she doing there? Or, for that matter, Ivanka Trump or Heidi Klum?
If you were a series fan, this is obviously something you want to buy. People say different things about the finale, but I thought it was just perfect, extremely emotionally satisfying.
One of the commentators I did enjoy was series semi-regular Mario ("Anthony") Cantone, who made short work of women who come up to him and say "I'M CARRIE!!!" His comeback isn't repeatable here, but I wish he'd repeat it to certain posters on the SATC board at imdb.com.
The entire series is a blast. It's even better when you have the luxury of watching it on DVD.

Rating: - "You are living in a fantasy..."
Sex and the City - Season Six, Part 2 is an emotional and heartwarming conclusion to this absolutely wonderful show. So glad the movie version will be out in May but until then we can watch these great episodes again and again. Sarah Jessica Parker and Cynthia Nixon won much deserved Emmy's that year. Kim Cattrall and Kristin Davis also sparkle the last season as well, Samantha is diagnosed with breast cancer and falls in love with Smith, while Charlotte becomes a mother to a King Charles Springer Spaniel and a baby from China. Chris Noth returns as Big to finally win Carrie back and we learn Big's first name! and Miranda marries Steve and they purchase a house in Brooklyn. Hard to find a show where all six seasons are brilliant and never jumped the shark. I highly recommend this gem!
Rating: - HOW WILL NEW YORK SURVIVE WITHOUT THESE WOMEN
A lot of my friends didnt like the whole russian thing, but I like it..i thought he was very complex and sort of hot, I got what Carrie saw in him..frankly, I could never quite understand what Carrie saw in Big, I mean he treated her poorly, he made fun of all of her boyfriends in the most immature way, he cheated on his wife with her, he left for California when she needed him most, I was not surprised how the show ended..but does anybody believe that that would last?...COME ON!!..I liked the Miranda story line, it was touching and i was glad she was happy at last..as for Charlotte, well, she got her Park Avenue apt. and a guy that made lots of money, so I guess she was happy, as shallow and sad as that is...as for Samantha, she got the hottest man I have ever seen, so she ended up on top..as always..this is a good ending for the series, but I liked the first half of season six better than the last half, not that this was not very good..but the first half of season six, is a classic...oh and frankly, dont bother over paying for this ..just do like we all do and buy the box set..it's so worth it..
