Editorial Review:
Product Description: A thirty-something sex columnist and her three single friends examine relationships and sexual roles in New York City. Genre: Television: HBO Rating: NR Release Date: 30-DEC-2003 Media Type: DVD
Amazon.com: It was a short but sweet fifth season for Sex and the City, as HBO's resident comediennes found themselves affected by forces beyond their control--the pregnancies of both Sarah Jessica Parker (Carrie) and Cynthia Nixon (Miranda). A truncated shooting schedule to accommodate the actresses forced this season to be reduced to a mere eight episodes, and indeed, you can tell both actresses are expecting. (Carrie's wardrobe became more outlandish and more concealing than usual.) Still, the actresses and creators forged ahead, creating a handful of episodes that if short in content were long on emotion and laughs. Whereas the fourth season found all four grappling with various relationships, the fifth season focused on the perils of being single, with a new intensity lacking in the previous sexcapades. Carrie and Miranda wrestled with their solitary lifestyles, albeit with new attachments--Miranda had new baby Brady and single motherhood, while Carrie found herself in the world of publishing as the author of a real-life book of her columns. Charlotte (Kristin Davis) wondered if she'd ever find another man, while Samantha (Kim Cattrall) finally got rid of the one that had been vexing her far too much, hotelier Richard (James Remar). If the season as a whole felt less than the sum of its parts, those parts were some of the best comedy in the show's history, from Samantha's anointment as the 'Michiko Kakutani of vibrators' to Carrie's stressful, one-degree-from-fiasco book launch party. (And fear not, Chris Noth's Mr. Big does pop up now and again.) The season's climactic episode, 'I Love a Charade,' found all four at the straight wedding of a seemingly gay pal (Nathan Lane) and contemplating their future with a wry, bemused tone. It was one of the series' best episodes ever, equally touching and funny, and grounded the show in an emotional maturity that announced that after all their wild travails, these women had truly grown up. --Mark Englehart

A short, but sweet season, I love the fun of season 5.
Of all the heavy relationships, serious issues, and "true life" this show tends to embody, season 5 is nice for its frivolity.
True it is shorter than any other season, but a savvy shopper can find it for a smaller price (if Amazon ever fails, try a video rental sale when they sell their former rentals)
The episodes make you happy to be a girl! "Anchors Away" is great, soo many boobs, all of them seen by ... Read More

This product seemed like it took a long time to be shipped to me, but it was still within the time frame. Usually the product seems to get to me faster, even with the lowest priced shipping. Otherwise, no problems

Sex and the City is always a good show, and all of the seasons on DVD are worth the money. In this season Carrie starts a serious relationship with a past fling, Charlotte has a surprisingly happy end to her marriage with Trey. Miranda deals with motherhood and her feelings for Steve, and Samantha is Samantha as usual. This DVD is well worth the money.

Sex and the City - The Complete Fifth Season is short but sweet. Only 8 episodes because Sarah Jessica Parker and Cynthia Nixon were both pregnant at the time so the season was cut short. A lot of reviewers have been complaining about season five, they say it's too boring or sappy but I have to disagree, I love this season so much! Carrie finally got to concerate on herself rather than a man, even though she does meet Jack Berger halfway through but the writing and stories were sharper than ever. My three ... Read More
