Sex and the City - The Complete Season 2 (DVD) ... released 01 July, 2002 at Paramount Home Entertainment / Features of the DVD: Box set, Closed-captioned, PAL / Much like the novels of Fanny Burney or Jane Austen 200 years before, Sex and the City tackles that perennial female conundrum, how to maintain independence from men (intellectual, sexual, financial) while seeking the ideal life-partner for whom that much-cherished independence can safely be sacrificed. So it is that Carrie, Charlotte, Miranda and Samantha prowl relentlessly the canyons of Manhattan in search of mates, all of whom fall woefully short of their needs in one crucial way or another. Yet, with biological clocks ticking and suppressed nesting instincts fighting back, the foursome occasionally find themselves dangerously close to despair. The dating game can be deadly serious sometimes. Which is why Sex and the City is not just good TV, it's great TV: for all its refreshingly cynical wit and superficial vivaciousness, the show has at its heart a streak of pathos and painful truth that resonates deeply with its audience. In the show's second season, the scrutiny falls more on the women than their succession of useless dates. Carrie has to learn the painful truth about Big all over again; Miranda has panic attacks about being alone for the rest of her life; Sam is humiliated by the ladies who lunch into confessing that she's a whore; and Charlotte is reduced to trading kinky foot massages for free shoes. Savage love, indeed. On the DVD: Sex and the City, Season 2 has all 18 episodes on three discs. Frustratingly, the menus have no "Play All" facility so you can't just sit back and enjoy--each episode requires navigation from the main menu to an episode list to a redundant preview screen before the play selection is offered. There are mini trailers for each episode and a short (eight-minute) promo featurette. The picture is a little fuzzy in places, doubtless the result of transfer from NTSC format, but is still an improvement over the first season. --Mark Walker

Premium Review Sex and the City - The Complete Season 2 (DVD): Single Fabulous and F***ed (3773 words)

Rating:

Four thirty something women living in New York introduce us to the second season of their lives. More men, more funny stories and advice given over lunch. Carrie Bradshaw writes more unanswered questions on her column, Charlotte York still hopes there is more hope in the future for her finding her true love, soulmate, Miranda still finds it hard to trust men and Samantha still tries new things and sleeps with more men. These down to earth women make up a great show that helps many women out with heir life. The show is very good and not just about sex but four intelligent women that deal with problems and love fashion which the show is famous for. 1.Take Me ...  Read the complete review

Season 2 opens with the aftermath of Carrie's failed relationship with Big - after crying for weeks she is ready to meet someone else - at least, she thinks she is. Luckily the show touches on reality when she finds herself breaking down in tears on an otherwise promising date. (One thing I always found unrealistic on this show is the way women are heartbroken one minute, and having the time of their lives with someone new, the next. This season has some of the most memorable moments from the show; The iconic "Single and fabulous?" magazine cover with a hungover, sullen Carrie staring out from a haze of smoke; the gang of lesbians who present an ...  Read the complete review

***WARNING - THIS REVIEW CONTAINS SEXUAL REFERENCES *** The scene has been set, we have met Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlottle in series one and we have been given an insight into their lives. Now we pick up with series two, to watch the latest batch of shenanigans! *************** What's new? ***************** In this series things really pick up. We learn a bit more about what makes each woman tick. The opening episode sees Miranda get frustrated by her friends constantly talking about men and we see the girls with other friends outside the core friendship group. Although this series is full of the usual love, sex and cocktails, ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review A classic series that you can watch over and over (165 words)

The second series of Sex and the City really comes into it's own and has cemented the working formula that we love. Carrie is on-and-off with Mr Big, so there's a great mix of relationships and dating. Miranda meets Steve and Samantha meets everyone, fab! Charlotte is looking for love, this series is just so classic! Whereas the first series can seem a little dated, there are modern story lines in series 2, all handily in one box set. The difference in the episodes is the best. In the later series, the girls are in relationships for most of the time, but as they are younger and most of the time they are single, we get lots of variety and single girl fun! Their ...  Read the complete review
