Trivia:
Sarah Jessica Parker had a clause in her contract for this show stipulating that she will not do any full nudity. This is why the audience never sees Carrie in anything less than underwear whereas all the other main female characters have been filmed in much less. more
Goofs:
Continuity: In the fetish episode when Big goes to Paris for a few days for work, he returns to New York and Carrie shows up at his door with McDonalds. In the kitchen, the position of her bag and the french fries (both on the counter top) changes constantly throughout the scene. more
Quotes:
Miranda: When did you stop calling her the idiot stick figure with no soul?
Carrie: Three weeks ago when I saw them at Cafe M. He was smiling and holding her hand and I finally got it. They're happy slash we're over.

The fifth woman is Manhattan, 12 January 2005
Author: didi-5 from United Kingdom

In its 6 year, 94 episode run, we've seen the four girls grow and develop through their relationship, neuroses, and daily life in New York. The main narrator and the girl who 'knows it all' is Carrie Bradshaw (Sarah Jessica Parker) who writes a sex column for the newspaper and has a bizarre taste in fashion. Her on-off boyfriend is the mysterious Mr Big (Chris Noth), who has dreadful chat-up lines and a big ego, but there have been others - notably the sweet Aidan (John Corbett, fresh from 'Northern Exposure') and the mysterious Russian artist in the final series (played by Mikhail Baryshnikov).

Charlotte York (Kristin Davis) is pure Park Avenue, looking for the man of her dreams. He isn't Trey MacDougall (Kyle MacLachlan), although they have a good try making things work; he turns out to be baldy divorce lawyer Harry instead. While we see Miranda Hobbes (Cynthia Nixon) move from power-suited lawyer to earth mother, with the cute Steve Brady (David Eigenberg); Samantha (Kim Cattrall) - man-eater and contortionist extraordinaire - finds love after a last season bout of personal trauma.

The strengths of 'Sex in the City' are mainly in the tone of Carrie's narration, some of the situations we see (the sex therapy session; the dance on the roof; all those opening nights at chic clubs), and the supporting characters, especially Willie Garson as Stanford Blatch. SATC was watchable throughout all its series, and remains so in repeated showings. I'll just miss seeing Carrie's wonderful frocks, how far Samantha will go this week, what Miranda will get worked up about, and whether Charlotte still believes in true love.
