I just finished...may contain Sex and the City spoilers for those who've not seen it.

[DrummerDeanna]

I seriously feel like I should have taken notes through my viewing - there was so much that made me think, laugh or cry and now I'm overwhelmed and can't think of much of it

Sigh. By the way, I LOVE how they finally "reveal" Big's name at the end..very cute.

[GardenStateGirlie]

even though they're incredibly edited, i still watch the reruns on tbs.

i purchased the first four seasons for my mother christmas two years ago [we used to watch the show every week]. i feel like a bit of a jerk because i confiscated them and i don't think she's seen them since. whoops.

I borrowed the first four seasons from my sister - accidently tore the cover off of season one and bought her a new one - so I now own season1. The others - I'm too po' to buy - but I know what's going on my Christmas list!!! In the meantime I'm saving them to my hard drive

I totally forgot about that !
And I couldn't tell you his name with a gun to my head.

^^
You didn't know she came out? I remember when it was revealed that Cynthia Nixon had been in a long-time relationship with a woman - I thought for sure that would be the end of my sister loving that show - but she made it through that, the abortion episode and Charlotte giving up Christ...guess the show is even more powerful that "morals"

Anyway - I do like CN better with the longer hair - I just still don't find her attractive - SJP sort of grew on me, but at best I find her cute...definitely not a knock-out.

Kristen Davis on the other hand? I find her so beautiful - and Kim Catrall to me has always just oozed sex - so that role was perfect for her.

Big's name...it feels wrong to just type it out here....

I just missed it somehow and found out years later.

The long hair becomes CN. I don't know what about her I find so attractive. I think she is the prettiest one, now. Especially with long hair. KD I find totally boring ! And the botox has rendered her face almost immobile, so I always marveled at her struggling to achieve facial expressions. Especially in the last couple of seasons. But she was always cute.
Kim is a sultry supernova, to be sure. I love how Richard was basically the male version of her. And how it drove her up a wall. That was a big turning point for her character.

Takes all kinds. Obviously the casting was genius. There is something for all tastes.

Well, when you put Cynthia Nixon next to her partner she looks like the most f**king beautiful woman in the world....



yeah, I'm going to hell. What the **** is that!?! She better have a damn good personality.

----

I didn't even notice and KD botox I'll have to go back and check it out. The Richard thing was a definte turning point for Samantha...and despite his canoodling I really liked him...until the Hamptons house episode - with the bimbos who won't go away....ugh.

She looks like Harvey Fierstein in a Howdy Doody wig.

At a certain point you will notice that KD's face no longer moves from the eyebrows up and her face tends to get into these funny expressions of confusion. They seem absolutely unintentional.

I liked the Richard story. And I liked him.

What fascinated me about all of these characters is how they got what they thought they wanted and needed and then found out they didn't know what the hell they needed at all. That is interesting to watch - the aftermath of realizing that. It is very much like real life. These characters struggled, like all of us do.

Either I'm really tired - or that's the funniest damn thing I've ever heard. I'm think the latter - because that's exactly what that woman looks like. Good lord...if someone like that can get nookie what the hell is my problem?

Very true indeed - one of the brilliant aspects of the writing on that show.

Now - totally unrelated to anything - but I'm way tired and well a couple of things I noticed...

Richard
Mrs. Adams (the pot-head, comic book shop guy Carrie date's mom)
Matthew McCaunaghye or however the hell it's spelled.....

All three were in Boys on the Side.

The blond woman Carrie meets in a restaurant with the Russian - she was in Live Nude Girls with Kim Catrall.

Ok - just a few random things I noticed and thought were of note...why? I don't really know.

I have the most overwhelming urge to go to New York City and to wear fabulous shoes. But for now I'll have to settle for going to bed....

Oh my stars! Wow! And she could have any woman she wants! She is just not attractive at all.

I hate to be so shallow but COME ON!!! Sparky's description has been cracking me up all day.

It's John.


Hm, that's funny, I find SJP really beautiful in a totally unconventional sort of way. I like unusual beauties. That being said, I think Cynthia Nixon looks like a chicken.

[Beachwood Mac]

I hate that Sex and the City and Six Feet Under are no longer on. Two great shows in their own way and they both leave a huge void.

That pic of CN is a great one. I always identified with her though because she was the plain Jane next to the others. Did you catch her partner on the Tony broadcast? THAT was one butch woman!

I still remember SJP from Square Pegs so I think she looks incredible now.

The loss of those two shows was the beginning of the end of my relationship with television. After they and the Sopranos went off two years ago and I knew SFU and Sopranos were gone for almost a year....that was it. Cable was gone four months later. Haven't watched since. Except for renting all of the last season of SFU in a frenzy when it came out on dvd.
