Summary: Worth It!
Review: Some things are worth any amount, and I believe that the girls from The City are priceless. The show's witty writing and sexy situations get me and my guy going every time...

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: What's with this price???
Review: I have bought every season of Sex and the City, LOVE them...I WILL not be buying season five. The series hit an incredible low spot--there were no cliff hangers, the dvd "set" is a mere 8 episodes--who do they think they are kidding? Spend your money elsewhere!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Not worth the money...
Review: I am an obsessive watcher of this show, and have always supported it. The support ends with this dvd set. This season is not worth the money, at regular or amazon price. I had fully expected the fifth and sixth season to be boxed together. Now THAT would have been a set I would have paid for.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: HBO's pricing is laughable.
Review: I am an avid watcher of Sex and the City, I adore the show. However, I think other fans will agree with me when I say that Season 5 was pretty much the lowpoint of the series. I record all of the episodes of every season and watch them frequently . . . I haven't touched my Season 5 tapes since it aired.

Initially, it was supposed to be 13 episodes (instead of the normal 18) to accomodate Sarah's pregnancy. We were supposed to get 8 episodes in the summer and then she was to return to the show for 5 more episodes the following spring. As you can see, that never happened. We were left with 8, "okay" episodes.

My main complaint and its a big one, is the pricing of the DVD "set", if you can call it that. This is the shortest season of the series, 8 episodes, compared to the normal 18. Now why in hell would I pay just as much money for 8 episodes as I would for 18? I mean, maybe if they'd added some special features to this set to make up for a lack of episodes, I might consider buying this. However, knowing what I do about the Sex and the City DVDs I own, I highly doubt that anything has been added.

In short, I cannot recommend this purchase simply because HBO is asking the same from us (monetarily speaking) and only delivering about a quarter of what they have in the past (episodes and episode quality). Even though I love the series, I will not purchase this item.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: For this price you must be kidding!
Review: Not a great season although I loved this show, I can't believe they would even charge this much for a DVD with 8 episodes (maybe one disc) as they would for the three disc sets of the past seasons... they need to rethink this or wait for the release and add it to six, dont waste the money on this one.. not for that price... and I have them all, this is the first one I do mind paying for.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: The Post 9-11 Season
Review: The short 5th season of Sex and the City was written and produced after 9-11....Believe me as a native New Yorker that 9-11 changed a lot here in NYC. I see this season as the writers and everyone trying to find their way in the aftermath; there was no way to predict NYC's mood while shooting-and NYC is what they are trying to convey here. The previous four seasons conveyed NYC;here they just did not know. Still, there are some good episodes here.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I Love These Grrrrls
Review: I love these grrrrls and I love this show, even if this wasn't the very best season. I also love what my guy is doing to me ever since we segued into the DVD "New Sex Now" one night afte SATC. ;>

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: EXPENSIVE
Review: How can a short season cost as much as a full season, you get the feeling that the girls really aren't into it as much, I for one will miss them as the show was one of my highlights of the week, and what will they do next?

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: NO WAY!
Review: This was the worst season of all. Even with Sarah Jessica's pregnancy, the stories were bad and seeing only 8 episodes for this price? I'll skip right to Season 6 when that comes out, since you don't have to watch Season 5 at all to continue with Season 6.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: OUCH!
Review: The 5th series was fun and short but will not be in my DVD collection at this price. Seems a bit steep for such a short season in contrast to other offerings.
