 Season 1....Just the Beginning
If you haven't seen Sex and the CIty Season one, I won't ask you what's wrong with you. I will ask, however, have you been living under a rock? I was. This past fall a girlfriend turned me onto Sex and the City. I had seen a few episodes here and there and had enjoyed them. It wasn't until I sat down and spent three hours watching Season 1 that I realized I love this show. Let's meet the castCarrie Bradshaw - Professional Writer. Is also known as a shoe shopping addict. The series revolves around her column and she narrates at times.
And who better to help her with her columns? Her friends! Miranda Hobbs - Attorney. She is the independent type. Doesn't need help from a man, nor does she want the help. Samantha Jones - PR Executive. She owns her own PR firm and enjoys having sex like men. No feelings, no emotions, just sex. And she has a lot of it. Charlotte York - Art Buyer. She is the traditionalist in the group. She wants to get married, have kids, the townhouse in the city, the country home in the hamptons. She is looking hard for Mr Right. Together these four women bring you into their lives and share with you their dating ups and downs. Season 1 Is also the introduction of one of my favorite reoccuring characters, Mr Big played by Chris Noth (Law and Order) Sex and the City is a must have. Watch as Carrie and Mr Big try to have a drink "thing." Watch as Miranda is mistaken for a lesbian because she choses to be single. Watch as Sam has sex like a man, and watch Charlotte keep looking for Mr right in what seems to be all the wrong places. If you don't want to buy it, rent it. Then you'll in love with it, as I have, and buy it!
 The beginning.
The first season was just ok, it had more of an unfocused feel to it. The show also had more of a grainier texture to it. The first season really doesn't deal with relationships that much, it focuses mostly on random dating, which makes it hard to get a reading on these women aside from their generic label (the sexually adventurous one, the cynic, the uptight one). Only SJ Parkers character is explored deeper, even though her character is mostly negative, self-absorbed, neurotic and prone to relationship sabotage. As for people who critize SJP looks, she isn't supposed to be a model she's supposed to be a normal woman who is comfortable with her looks, a woman normal women can relate to. Overall an ok season.

 PSEUDO-INTELLECTUAL DRIVEL!
(...)This reveals exactly why the terrorists hate our country. Shallow, materialistic, decadent, pseudo-intellectual drivel. I remember hearing one sentence of the show (before throwing the tv out the window) where the main character said "I finally realized" followed by some pseudo-existential "witticism" with a straight(dumb)face. The only positive aspect of this show is to teach kids to stay in school.
