Sex And The City Videos - Catch Up With The Girls Before The Next Movie!

By Lola Jasminia

The television series may have ended over 5 years ago, but you can still get hours and hours of enjoyment from the six years of episodes by watching them on video. For many women, watching the re-runs of Sex And The City is an essential indulgence. Especially important, now, while we wait for the release of the next movie!

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.

Who can fail to be drawn into the biggest story of the series, Carrie (Sarah Jessica Parker) and Big (Chris Noth)? From season 1 we see them meet, and in season 6 we finally get to see them together, only to experience yet more turmoil when the movie comes around! Who knows what Sex and the City 2 will hold for the (now married) couple?

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 isnt 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 Im forty-f*****g-five!

The Show Lives On

As much as anything else, watching any Sex and the City video from series one to six chronicles an immense catalog of fashion. Nobody can deny how Sex and the City stylist, Patricia Field, transcended fashion trends and even set them " down to every last detail. Women across the world are all eagerly anticipating the new fashion trends yet to be set by Sex and the City 2.

All the best movie highlights and uncut episodes are available in the form of Sex and the City video, and you can snap them up for a fraction of the cost with the series boxset. So why not revisit your favorite!
