Sex and the City - The Complete Fifth Season

Rating:
Summary: Give them some credit
Review: I know that the 5th season was definitely not great. But you have to remember that both Sarah and Cynthia were pregnant and there were probably not that many normal story lines they could do. However, I feel that Charlette's character really grows in this season as well as Samantha's. I am a huge fan of Sex and the City and not every show is going to be great.

Summary: Cry Me A River !!!!
Review: (...) Not every movie or television show maintains its great writing through the entire series or movie. Sex in the City is about the big picture--Seasons 1 - 6. In case you all forgot, this show had a major ratings slump after the first couple episodes until things were changed in the writing. Take a look at Season 1 and the rest of the seasons and there are big changes. It picked up after Season 1 and has NEVER stopped gaining momentum. So there was a little slump in Season 5, (...) I for one am interested in the chemistry that these characters have, the situations they get themselves into, and New York City. Thats what it comes down too.

Summary: 5th Season
Review: If the 5th season was any good, then the cost would not matter. This show (seasons 1-4,6) always made me feel better, especially when having relationship confusion. But this season was depressing every week. I would avoid it.

Summary: Here here
Review: I have this season on VHS, taped off HBO when it aired. That may very well be where it will stay unless I find this cheaper. This season had some good moments such as, the trip to CA and the meeting with Big, the conversion to Judaism, and the baby, but the price is outrageous compared to what you're getting in the other seasons. Yes, price is also what we are reviewing. Not just content. Maybe if they had added some 'behind the scenes' or outtakes or something like that, maybe it would be more enticing, but there doesn't seem to be any such thing on this DVD.
If this show doesn't end the way everyone is hoping and expecting, season 6 may also be a dud.

Summary: I WILL LOVE THESE WOMEN FOREVER...
Review: While I'm sad to see the girls leaving after the final episodes air this coming winter, I can't really deny the fact that it's time for this show to move on before it really DOES run out of steam. The one thing that I find is missing from season 5 is the juiciness of the previous 4 seasons. The shows from seasons 1-4 just seem to be more entertaining and fun to watch. Still, I love this show and always will. As for season 6 (the final season), rumor has it that Kim Catrall's character Samantha will find herself battling cancer. I don't know this for sure, but this is an interesting twist that could be true. Anyhow, SEX will go down in history as one of the funniest, and most brutally honest, shows ever. Enjoy!

Summary: Full Price for Half Content?
Review: I own Seasons 1-4, and had Season 5 been under $20, I would have purchased it just to be complete. But, and let's face it, Season 5 was terrible anyway! The writing was WAY OFF and SJP wasn't even likeable, which is hard to believe! The episode where they took the train and the zit humor was incredibly lame, as so many of the episodes (gee, all 8? ha!) were. I need to read a synopsis of each episode just to remind myself why I'm glad I'm NOT buying Season 5!

Summary: Not Good
Review: This is the weakest season of the series. It was a real disappointment. I felt that some of the stories were unbelievable and didn't keep with the characters that had been developed in previous seasons. It's sad to see a series decline like this.

Summary: This show went from good to bad
Review: People are a little too emotional about this show. The first few seasons were pretty good. The characters have become tired, the dialogue repititious and the story lines predictable. It is not a matter of how much this DVD costs, or how many shows you are getting. Put away your accounting visors. It is about a show that was a fresh idea with ground breaking dialogue that became tired, dull and common. Do not buy this DVD. It says much about our culture that we continue to watch and support shows like this long after they become tired. We are conditioned by what we think is cool. This show has become so far from cool, it is the Sally Struthers of HBO series. If you are into HBO and "ground breaking" comedy, pre-order Larry David's Curb Your Enthusiasm. A guy that shouldn't be cool, a total nebbish, will become the coolest cat you know.

Summary: What is everyone's Problem??
Review: Every review on this acts like the season completely sucked. I am here to say they are wrong!! Yeah, we got shorted some shows, but they will be given back to us in January!! Hello anyone!! Eight bonus episodes of the final season. I laughed just as hard as any other season. Loved Miranda's pregnancy and Samantha and Richard. In "Anchors Away" Charlotte was totally out of character and hilarious! I loved Berger and Carrie's chemistry. And Samantha babysitting Brady = craziness!! And the last episode wedding has me wanting Miranda and Steve together again. Maybe it isn't as good as some seasons and maybe we were shorted some episodes (again, getting them back in Jan), but you still have to admit that this is some of the best stuff on TV right now.

Summary: great show, low ratings are for the price
Review: People are complaining about the price and lowereing the rating for this great show, Granted i agree this is too much to spend for only two discs, but will still buy it anyway to complete my collection, people should consider they have alrady forked over about one hundetred and fifty dollars for the the first four seasons. Just go with the flow and buy this, the show is almost over and i for one want to have complete series of the best telvision show since Seinfeld. I hope sony will release that one soon, it's about the only telvision show not on dvd.
