View Full Version : Sex in The City?
Very wierd. I dont like the show but the worst part is the way they have it written (narrated) by one of the characters as though she is a writer of the show. I feel like I' m supposed to be a fool simply because a girl with breasts--as though that were unusuall--is telling the story.
DarleneIllyria 12-09-2002, 01:26 AM I've never really seen Sex in the City. I've heard a bunch of talk about the show, but I've never seen. It doesn't seem like something I'd want to watch. Also, they moved HBO to another station and I'd have to get digital cable in order to get it.

Personally, I have never been a fan of the show. Sometimes I have laughed at the jokes, but for the most part I have never seen the appeal.
Overrated is the word I'm looking for, I guess.

JethroSimpson 12-16-2002, 11:50 AM I do really like the show, it's not just about sex there is a lot more to it than that, I think of it as a Drama series that happens to feature sex.
I know a lot of people who think it's bad but personally I do enjoy it.

It's true that a lot of people don't like it, but Emmy-winning Sex and The City has legions of fans. I've watched it since day one, and it's one of my favorites. The production values are terrific--the New York setting, the clothes, music, set designs, etc. It takes a lot of money to produce this show.
It makes me laugh, cry, even blush at times.
It's a dark comedy with more emphasis on drama. It was sad watching Carrie go through her breakups with Big and Aiden or Charlotte when she got divorced....or Miranda dealing with the loss of her mother and single motherhood. We even got to see that Samantha isn't made of stone and can have her heart broken too.
The premise of 4 single women living in New York makes for many interesting and exciting storylines.
I've always loved a narrative voiceover in movies or television. Sex and The City has quality writing. I love the show.

I know people like the show, and Janice stated pretty well why. But for some reason, and it has little to do with the sexual content, try as I have several tiimes, I don't care for the characters. I'm put off by their conversations around the restaraunt table. And those conversations are supposed to endear them to us and give the characters personalities that we can get into. Obviously, for many, that's what has happened. Granted, I haven't watched enough of the shows to follow the story lines that Janice mentioned, so some of the what's what and who's who is lost on me. But some of the episodes I have watched lacked a realism that I think they were trying to achieve.

fr00ti 12-16-2002, 07:22 PM never seen it, and dont plan on seeing it anytime soon.
Does anyone know if the show is, according to some survey, more popular with women than it is with men?
