Sex and the City more like Depressed in the City
One word "horrible". This season took all the characters out of there element. They are not sassy and cute anymore but old, alone, frustrated and depressed. This season was a total waste, it contradicted the whole Sex and the City theme of women being able to be as free as picky and as carefree as men! If this season was about men being 36 going on 37 nothing would have changed men would be free as birds still young, still on the hunt and no need to settle hence, Mr. Big the guy is practically in his 40's in the series and still won't commit to Carrie, but that's ok he's a man and still needs to get some things straightened out. In season five there is that constant reminder that woman at 36 going on 37 should stop fooling around and start getting serious. It was a complete dissapointment and made the sex and the city gals look like desperate old maids. So they have slept with all of Manhattan if they were guys it would be excepted!
All those who think this season was GREAT get real, did you forget the name of it "Sex and the City"!!! Hello these characters are meant to test the waters, no matter how many dirty fishes the hudson river has.

What a Disappointment!
I got this as a package of all 5 seasons. I was eagerly anticipating this one and WOW, what a disappointment. First, it was so apparent that Sarah Jessica Parker was pregnant and it made all the sex-related scenes seem totally unbelievable. Also unbelievable were the huge tent-like outfits she wore that were supposed to stylish. This season made me feel sorry for the characters on the show because they are portrayed as dried out old scags. It wasn't nearly as funny or entertaining as the other four seasons. RENT this one instead if you want to be a completist.

One of the best original cable programs ever...
Based on the bestselling novel by Candace Bushnell, the HBO original series Sex And The City took the television world by storm following its release in the summer of 1998. Following the exploits of four young and educated female friends living and working in New York City, the show revolves around the various relationships and life problems experienced by each member of the group. Sporting an experienced and talented cast, the show has developed a strong, borderline fanatic following...

Sarah Jessica Parker (the de facto lead character of the show) stars as Carrie Bradshaw, a popular sex columnist for a local newspaper who travels in numerous Manhattan social circles. Carrie is engaged in a tempestuous on-again, off-again relationship with a mystery man always referred to as "Mr. Big". The young urban professional shares her life with three best friends who have similarly interesting jobs - Miranda Hobbs (Cynthia Nixon), a lawyer tired of being single given the societal ramifications; Samantha Jones (Kim Cattrall), a promiscuous publicist who enjoys non-exclusive relationships; and Charlotte McDougal (Kristin Davis), an art museum curator who is relatively less open about her sexuality... Together, the women seek each other's advice on the ever-present and varying predicaments in which they find their romantic relationships...

The Sex And The City (Season 5) DVD features a number of hilarious episodes including the season premiere "Anchors Away" in which a sailor invites Carrie to a 'Fleet Week' party (only to have her go home alone due to her inability to forget about her past relationships with Aidan and Mr. Big). Meanwhile, Charlotte has a less than pleasing experience with a naval officer, and Samantha goes to extremes to let the neighborhood know of Richard's infidelities... Other notable episodes from Season 5 include "Unoriginal Sin" in which Samantha gets back together with Richard and Miranda agrees to baptize Brady, and "The Big Journey" in which Carrie's book tour takes her out to San Francisco where she's reunited with Mr. Big...
