Product Description: A smart and savvy (albeit highly stylized) look at the single lives of four thirtysomething Manhattan women, Sex and the City: The Complete Second Season builds on the foundation of its first season with plot arcs that are both hilarious and heartfelt, taking the show from breakout hit to true pop-culture phenomenon. Relationship epiphanies coexist happily alongside farcical plots and zingy one-liners, resulting in emotionally satisfying episodes that feature the sharp kind of character-defining dialogue that seems to have disappeared from the rest of TV long ago. When last we left the NYC gals, Carrie (Sarah Jessica Parker) had just broken up with a commitment-phobic Mr. Big (Chris Noth), but fans of Noth's seductive-yet-distant rake didn't have to wait long until he was back in the picture, as he and Carrie tried to make another go of it. Their relationship evolution, from reunion to second breakup, provides the core of the second season. The fittingly titled and keenly observed episode "Evolution" found Carrie trying to leave a few feminine belongings at Mr. Big's apartment with little success, charting the challenges and limits of intimacy. And the season's finale, "Ex and the City," was a melancholy goodbye for Carrie and Big that took its cue from The Way We Were. It wasn't all angst, though: among other adventures, Charlotte (Kristin Davis) puzzles over whether one of her beaus was "gay-straight" or "straight-gay"; Miranda (Cynthia Nixon) tries to date a guy who insists on having sex only in places where they might get caught; and Samantha (the exquisite Kim Cattrall) copes with dates who range from, um, not big enough to far too big--with numerous stops in between. Through it all, the four actresses cohered into a solid ensemble that played on their complex relationships among themselves as well as with men; in two short years, Parker and company became one of the best TV casts in over a decade. And to top it all off, the second season offers 18 episodes, six more than the first. Sometimes size really can make a difference! --Mark Englehart

5 stars Love the show
Sex and the city will always be loved but this is definitely one of the best seasons.


5 stars Can't wait to watch it
I now have Seasons 1 & 2 of SATC, but haven't had a chance to watch them yet. I can't wait for a rainy or cold and snowy weekend, so I can be a couch potato alllll day!


5 stars A Must Own Series!
No matter what your age or life is like every woman can relate to one or all of these ladies. Romance, finance, and disagreements among friends.

I love having my series collection to watch whenever I miss New York!

You won't be disappointed in having this seasons episodes!

Now all I need is the Movie DVD! :) Coming soon....

5 stars Sophomore Perfection
In its Second Season, SATC truly explored the sex and love of NYC through the wonderful lives of our four ladies.

Serial dating, weird sex, self realizations, and all the laughter culminate in a truly wonderful program. This season sets itself apart as the one that took the show into its irreverent direction. While continuing to channel Ms. Bushnell's articles, the show expanded to become all about these four women. They became real characters, not just vessels for the hilarious and odd that is NYC. And this season has some great balance between all the characters.

Every woman has her own storyline and incidents. The best for each are (in my humble opinion):

"The Cheating Curve" Charlotte losses interest in men after a boyfriend cheats on her, in front of her!! Enter the 'power lesbians!'

"The Man, The Myth, The Viagra" Samantha finds a very rich, but old, old man to treat her like a princess. But how much is she willing to give up for decadent dates?

"Evolution" Poor Miranda just can't catch a break: she breaks up with Steve, she has to humiliatingly tell her gyno she no longer needs birth control, and then she finds out she has a 'lazy' ovary! What's next? A date with hair-plug guy?!?!

"La Douleur Exquise" Carrie realizes she is a masochist when Mr. Big hurts her again ... this time he is fleeing the country! Her optimism and inability to see who Mr. Big for who he really is wrenches your heart, especially when Carrie does stop kidding herself.

"Ex and the City" Another Carrie episode, but the great group sing along and Samantha's embarrassing admission make this a perfect ladies episode. But oh that ending! Carrie and Big reenacting that scene, with that wild horse refusing to be bridled! (Only rivaled by Season 3's "What Goes Around Comes Around"- the Christian Dior newsprint dress swaying as she walks, through traffic, down the streets of New York, in slow motion!)

Highly, highly recommend!


4 stars A second visit with Carrie and friends
Eighteen fun episodes from early in the show's run. At this point in the series the humor was still more anecdotal than character based; that is, if there was a funny sexually-oriented story, anecdote, or situation to be related, the writers threw it in, applying it to whatever girl seemed most convenient. Later, as the characters' personalities and back stories developed, the writers were a little more careful about the types and variety of sexual adventures each girl experienced. But the sexual craziness of the first couple of seasons is still entertaining, and certainly very funny.

The various seasons of "Sex and the City" have really come down in price since their initial appearance on DVD, so now is a good time to see them for the first time, or in my case, to get re-acquainted with the show. After all, the "Sex and the City" movie will be coming out soon, so I have to refresh my memory on the lives of Carrie and company!

Stylish packaging and menus, good organization of the episodes, and crystal clear picture and sound round out this very entertaining DVD package.
