Sex and the City - Season Six, Part 1 Customer Reviews (28 - 30 of 55 Reviews)

Excellent!!!
I finished the whole DVD in one night. It is just so good. There are so many good events happened. I think Charolette and Harry are just so sweet and they make a perfect couple. I am so happy that they get married. My favorite part is where Big finally "opened his heart", even though it only last for one night. It delivers the message that you can see who really cares about you when one is sick. Carried stepped out of the plate and took care of Big. Too bad that Big decided to close his heart againt he next morning. Of course I love it toward the end that Miranda and Steve got back together. It was very touching. I like season six part I a lot better than season five.

In a word...wow!
Season Six shows the four "girls" growing up. Samantha is well into her forties but still has the soul of a twenty-something. We got to see her playful side: when she sneaks into an exclusive club to get access to a swimming pool and when she goes wild over a younger man -- and maybe falls in love!

Charlotte's conversion is handled tastefully and respectfully, but we get to see the humorous side of Charlotte and her delightful new husband, Harry. I like the way the show turned from religion to married life -- adjusting to one another's quirks.

Miranda too shows increased complexity as she falls in love with a new neighbor but recognizes where her heart really belongs. I realize most viewers love Miranda and Steve together, but I don't get the chemistry. Then again, Miranda is the most human of the four. She loves food, admits she gained weight, and gets all kinds of medical conditions.

And, like many reviewers, I loved Carrie's lost shoe story. I love the way she didn't back down when she asked for money -- and found a graceful way to get what she wanted. What I picked up was not so much the lifestyle resentment ("how could she spend $485 on one pair of shoes?") but the obligations of single people to buy gifts to honor their married friends' special occasions.

I wasn't crazy about Burger -- it was easy to see he wasn't The One -- and I admire Carrie's patience on bad dates. The high school romance didn't stand out.

But you can't miss Carrie's mistake with Big. Either she needs to back off or she needs to read between the lines. He doesn't wear his heart on his sleeve. He's older and more sophisticated -- in fact, at times I'm surprised he's still eligible. But he obviously cares for Carrie and their chemistry creates visible sparks.

The DVD set lets us hear voiceovers and my complaint isn't about price: I wanted more director's commentary! I realize a busy producer has other things to do -- but his insights add considerably to a high-quality show. This set includes a presentation at a museum seminar, where each actor talks about her character. Not very deep but fun to see the actors out of role. They're highly intelligent, likeable women.
A bit of bias:
Cynthia Nixon graduated from Barnard, my own alma mater.
Perfect choice to play a Harvard-trained lawyer.

Great Show Greedy HBO! Hey that rhymes
I have all the seasons and I love Sex and the City. Season six was a return to the great comedy the show was always about, but the price for the last 2 season's are crazy. Why do you have to pay full price for less product, it's just greed. For the idiots who are defending HBO, they must either work for them or are posers who have no life and will latch on to anything. The show is great and if you don't mind, overpaying buy it.
