Another solid season. 
2007-11-25
Sex and the City - The Complete Second Season is just as fascinating as the first season. Carrie, Miranda, Charlotte, and Samantha are back as they struggle with more guy issues. My favorite episode is Take Me Out to the Ballgame, Sarah Jessica Parker's performance in this episode is so real and emotional, it always makes me cry watching it. I highly recommend purchasing this season and all the other season as well. It's pure fun, enjoy!

Oh great irony!!! 
2007-05-30
After making me watch Sex and the City with her, my wife astutely observed that at the heart of this show is a great irony. Touted as a "breakout show" lauding feminism and female empowerment, Sex and the City ironically only managed to portray women as more shallow, superficial, petty and empty-headed than virtually any other television show in history (thank creator Darren Star). Far from challenging whatever backward notions might remain that women are not men's equals, all watching this show would actually do is effectively confirm everything about women that misogynistic chauvinists unfoundedly believe, especially but not limited to the beliefs that women are silly, adolescent, juvenile and totally unencumbered by any burdens of logic, adulthood or maturity. Great progress.
Tiring quickly of Carrie Bradshaw's infantile and meaningless ponderings--"Is New York all about change?" "Are new myths required for singles?" "Is life in Manhattan like a bagel with cream cheese?" Here's one: "Is life really all about perpetually asking meaninglessly vacuous questions and then posing witty but ultimately arbitrary responses?"--one is left to wonder what exactly happened to her in childhood that so effectively stunted her emotional development, seemingly forever cementing her personality at about a sixteen/seventeen-year old emotional age. Are we supposed to pity her that "Big" treats her like a little kid, regardless of the fact that she disturbingly acts like an unbalanced little child? I would say no, especially in light of the fact that in real life "Big" and Carrie would probably not be together in the first place.
Another of the show's many absurdities is the foursome of friends that comprise its main characters. Let's face it folks, unless these girls grew up together (and in the show they didn't), these four women would NOT be friends in real life. They would hate each other.
Superior sophomore season - by this point you're an addict 2007-04-23
*Possible spoilers within.*
"Sex and the City"'s first season was a delight, but its second was even better. Season 2 ran from June to October 1999 and spanned 18 episodes, as opposed to Season 1's 12. By the time one reaches Season 2, you love the characters, you go into a trance when the charmingly surreal credits sequence comes on, and you need two hours to get back into the swing of everyday life when an episode finishes. You're an addict.
And what's not to love? The cast is even better. Cynthia Nixon's Miranda loosens up, and even develops a long-term relationship with super-cute bartender Steve (David Eigenberg). Kristin Davis' Charlotte becomes even more obsessed with finding Mr. Right, but he's no where to be seen. Samantha (Kim Cattrall) ... well, continues to sleep around. Meanwhile, Carrie's (Sarah Jessica Parker) life is just as crazy as ever. Still broken up over her - well, break up with Mr. Big (Chris Noth), Carrie tries to leap back in to the dating game to no avail. However, a few close encounters of the Big kind and they're together again, a fact Carrie is first ashamed, then proud of. Can they make it work the second time around?
Throughout Season 2, Carrie continues to ask those questions that have haunted single women for years. She's no longer as "in control" as she was during the first season, though. Her breakup with Big has left her feeling vulnerable and lost. Fortunately, she has three wonderful friends, and a team of witty, intelligent writers and directors to back her up as well. All in all, it's not as bouncy a season as the first, but "Sex and the City"'s sophomore season is superior and addictive. If you loved Season 1, don't even try to resist - grab Season 2 as fast as you can.
Good Product Bad Shipper 2007-03-09
The dvds are great just as Sex and the City is however the shipper was slow to send them and it took more than the aloted time to get them to me.
Love the show 2008-07-07
Sex and the city will always be loved but this is definitely one of the best seasons.
Can't wait to watch it 2008-07-03
I now have Seasons 1 & 2 of SATC, but haven't had a chance to watch them yet. I can't wait for a rainy or cold and snowy weekend, so I can be a couch potato alllll day!
A Must Own Series! 2008-06-21
No matter what your age or life is like every woman can relate to one or all of these ladies. Romance, finance, and disagreements among friends.
I love having my series collection to watch whenever I miss New York!
You won't be disappointed in having this seasons episodes!
Now all I need is the Movie DVD! :) Coming soon....

Sophomore Perfection 2008-06-05
In its Second Season, SATC truly explored the sex and love of NYC through the wonderful lives of our four ladies.
Serial dating, weird sex, self realizations, and all the laughter culminate in a truly wonderful program. This season sets itself apart as the one that took the show into its irreverent direction. While continuing to channel Ms. Bushnell's articles, the show expanded to become all about these four women. They became real characters, not just vessels for the hilarious and odd that is NYC. And this season has some great balance between all the characters.
Every woman has her own storyline and incidents. The best for each are (in my humble opinion):
"The Cheating Curve" Charlotte losses interest in men after a boyfriend cheats on her, in front of her!! Enter the 'power lesbians!'
"The Man, The Myth, The Viagra" Samantha finds a very rich, but old, old man to treat her like a princess. But how much is she willing to give up for decadent dates?
"Evolution" Poor Miranda just can't catch a break: she breaks up with Steve, she has to humiliatingly tell her gyno she no longer needs birth control, and then she finds out she has a 'lazy' ovary! What's next? A date with hair-plug guy?!?!
"La Douleur Exquise" Carrie realizes she is a masochist when Mr. Big hurts her again ... this time he is fleeing the country! Her optimism and inability to see who Mr. Big for who he really is wrenches your heart, especially when Carrie does stop kidding herself.
"Ex and the City" Another Carrie episode, but the great group sing along and Samantha's embarrassing admission make this a perfect ladies episode. But oh that ending! Carrie and Big reenacting that scene, with that wild horse refusing to be bridled! (Only rivaled by Season 3's "What Goes Around Comes Around"- the Christian Dior newsprint dress swaying as she walks, through traffic, down the streets of New York, in slow motion!)
Highly, highly recommend!
A second visit with Carrie and friends 
2008-03-18
Eighteen fun episodes from early in the show's run. At this point in the series the humor was still more anecdotal than character based; that is, if there was a funny sexually-oriented story, anecdote, or situation to be related, the writers threw it in, applying it to whatever girl seemed most convenient. Later, as the characters' personalities and back stories developed, the writers were a little more careful about the types and variety of sexual adventures each girl experienced. But the sexual craziness of the first couple of seasons is still entertaining, and certainly very funny.
The various seasons of "Sex and the City" have really come down in price since their initial appearance on DVD, so now is a good time to see them for the first time, or in my case, to get re-acquainted with the show. After all, the "Sex and the City" movie will be coming out soon, so I have to refresh my memory on the lives of Carrie and company!
Stylish packaging and menus, good organization of the episodes, and crystal clear picture and sound round out this very entertaining DVD package.
