Good sex...but too short

The utter dissappointment here is merely the 8 little episodes, vs. the classic 12 or 13 of seasons past. I liked this season a lot!

I heard so much bad stuff, but I liked it!

Ok, granted it was a little expensive for only 8 episodes--BUT if you are a true SATC fan, then you need to have it. The episodes were great in my opinion. They were all so touching! I love this season just like all of the others, I just wish it was longer!

Less bang for my buck

I did enjoy this season, as I do with every season of Sex and the City. I don't think season 5 was a throw-away season. Although I do hesitate to spend this much on only 8 episodes. Granted - they are a great 8 episodes. But so are the other episodes where I get 18ish episodes for the same price.

I think I'll wait for season 6 to come out and see if this price goes down. I'm just not willing to spend that much money on such little product.

A tad disappointing

Well, the shortness of the series certainly does beg the question, why did they try squeeze in Season 5 with two pregnant ladies instead of just waiting another year? In addition to the brevity, this series really isn't as strong as the previous four, and the first three episodes are unworthy of what we have come to expect from Sex in the City, or even from HBO. The jokes are forced and lewd rather than funny, and somehow the attention to detail just isn't there - which is irritating because of its unnecessary carelessness. (Two unforgivable examples: in the Atlantic City episode, Carrie goes from lanky hair in need of a cut to tight frizzy perm and back to lanky hair, and in the Christening episode, Steve's Mom holds Baby Brady so badly the viewer is almost relieved that he's obviously a doll.) But it does get better, and five of the episodes are pretty good entertainment. If you're a fan, an average of $6.50 per good episode isn't a fabulous deal, but you'll do it. And face it, anyone who's mad about the price must have known how few episodes there were before they bought it. So here's my advice: if you're a big fan, pay the money and be quiet. If you're not, rent it.
