Just because Sex and the City made the move to the big screen, doesn’t mean we can’t still get hours of enjoyment from the six television series! It might have ended over five years ago but, for many women, watching re-runs of Sex and the City video, from all the seasons, is an essential indulgence, not to mention an education!
The Success of a Groundbreaking Television Series
Sex And The City has been in our lives since 1998, and ever since has been changing the way women see themselves, relationships, and each other. Even now, sales of Sex And The City video boxsets show how the message is still so important today. It’s given career driven women a voice, and it’s shown that what women really talk about can be respectable, thoughtful and complex, even when the main subject is men!
From the first episode, which drew 3.7 million viewers, to the last, with over 10 million watching breathlessly as Big arrived in Paris, we have known that these women were extraordinary. And, though they represent extremes, most of us can find something of ourselves in at least one of them.
Following the Struggle of Four Strong Women
Through the six series we are introduced to the many issues that modern women face. Though they may have more freedom in terms of careers and money, this comes at a price.
Advice columnist, Carrie Bradshaw (Sarah Jessica Parker) and her high power, New York Businessman, Mr. Big (Chris Noth) have center stage throughout the series’ six episodes with their on-again/off-again rollercoaster relationship. After following her to Paris and finally winning her over, Big and Carrie make it to the altar. But what lies in store for them in the sequal?
For Charlotte (Kristin Davis), the eternal optimism, love doesnt come easy. But persistence pays off, and she finally gets the family she wants and deserves by the end of Sex and the City: the Movie.
Miranda (Cynthia Nixon) always struggled with her own self-confidence and direction in life. This is shown throughout the hilarious yet thoughtful portrayal of her pregnancy and motherhood after season 4, as well as the on-off relationship with husband Steve (David Eigenberg).
And not much needs to be said about Samantha (Kim Cattrall), the promiscuous, career-hungry woman who isn’t afraid to take exactly what she wants from life. Not to mention the fact that shes helped women all over the world be proud to say I’m forty-f*****g-five!
