Sex and the City is one of my favorite shows. I actually started a little group, me and 8 friends get together the 2nd Sunday of every month for 4 hours to watch it. It's a different theme every month. I even have a shirt that says "I'm a Carrie", lol.

She wanted to dance at that bar(she was wearing a scarf around her neck) but her boyfriend wouldnt dance. So she went off with that big cowboy dude to dance and then there was a fight.

Originally Posted By WorldDisney LOL, guys don't think about it so much. She's okay, but if you don't like her, there's a way to escape. Next time SATC is playing or she has a new movie out, don't watch it. See how simple it is .

Originally Posted By DlandJB I loved Cynthia Nixon's red hair and she always had the most flattering colors on to go with it. I also loved the guy who played her boyfriend = although I thought they didn't mesh very well.
Originally Posted By DlandDug I dunno. I have always liked Sarah Jessica Parker, going all the way back to Square Pegs. My favorite performance of hers is in LA Story. Yeah, I know-- that whole free spirit routine was so cliche. But I liked it. Roller blades and all.
Originally Posted By DVC_dad <snip> Next time SATC is playing or she has a new movie out, don't watch it. <snip> Please don't misunderstand. I wrote this topic not so much as a HATER or anything. I was expecting something fun, clever, and interesting like maybe Friends or even Sinfield, and was disappointed. The show is okay. But it's just ok. I think there could have been better casting. Sorry if any are offended. I mean, I am coming to the party waaaaay late, having only watched the show for the first time just a few days ago. Obviously it must be me, and not the show, judging from the success of the show.

Originally Posted By t1lersm0m DlandJB, I didn't really start watching SATC until it was on DVD either. Actually, there was a lot of fuss over the show ending, and people were making predictions about the finale, and some radio stations were having SATC finale parties. So I tuned into the finale on HBO when it initially aired. A little while after that, someone was having a good sale on the first season, I think under $20, so I figured, "Eh, why not give it a try." It took me months to watch more than the first couple of episodes. But once I got through season one and started season two, I was HOOKED! I love SATC. It's hard to recommend people start on season one, because it wasn't the strongest season. Aside from season five, which stunk, I think the show just gets better and better with each season. Long live SJP!!!! Regarding Cynthia Nixon, I think she is beautiful also, and I think she played her role beautifully. I'm not a SATC apologist.....I just love the show and the four main characters, and the actresses that played them. I think Cynthia Nixon was a great fit for Miranda. I never read the book, as it has bad reviews on Amazon.com, so I'm not sure how true to Miranda's character (or any of them) the show stayed.
Originally Posted By TiggerPooh1973 <<It's hard to recommend people start on season one, because it wasn't the strongest season.>> That is very true. The show evolved into something very different then the pilot and the first couple episodes of Season 1. The show did just get better and better.
Originally Posted By TiggerPooh1973 You did say you only watched one episode, right? It would be kinda hard to get hooked by one episode. You have to know the characters to get into it I think.
