Sex & The City

"Maybe the past is like an anchor holding us back. Maybe, you have to let go of who you are to become who you will be."
"Can you get to your future if your past is present?"

- Carrie Bradshaw

I don't know what it is about Sex & The City that is so... Should I say, "Fabulous". One can argue that perhaps this is the single-woman life women would love to have, carefree, with a stable job, money to be going to fabulous parties, not have to work so much for it, and still manage to look flawless even when you are suppose to feel miserable. But I don't think so. The whole powerful professional woman thing is awesome but more than anything it is Carrie's reflections on the day that keeps audiences. The writers of the show do a great job in combining four different personalities and creating a common ground in which they can all bond and be like family. All three lives have just enough drama and passion for the audiences to want more. There is just enough complications in their lives to keep it interesting. Of course, there are also enough involvements with men to help the interesting part.

I love all the little rhetorical questions Carrie gives us every time she writes. Samantha is so bold and crazy (I bet women secretly wish they had the B%*#S to pull off half of the things she does on the show). Charlotte is a hopeless romantic. Miranda is sarcastic, cynical, but deep inside she is a wonderful friend, she is just afraid of letting people in.
I haven't quite added the seasons to my collection but it is something I wish to do in the near future.

You have to figure ... if the world's fattest twins can find love, there's hope for all of us. Somewhere out there is another little freak who will love us, understand us, and kiss our 3 heads and make it all better.
