Full Product DetailsHBO's groundbreaking series came to a close with the eight 2003-4 episodes collected in this three-disc box set, and it definitely went out with a bang rather than a whimper. Sex and the City concluded with its four major characters facing their respective destinies, but not without difficulty. A breast-cancer scare forces Samantha (Kim Cattrall) in "Catch-38" to reevaluate her life, if only temporarily. In "Out of the Frying Pan," and "The Cold War," Carrie (Sarah Jessica Parker) finds herself growing closer to a Russian artist (Mikhail Baryshnikov): a flippant, arrogant man who's been around the block, he nonetheless manages to captivate the romance-loving writer. Charlotte (Kristin Davis) continues to focus on recovering from the loss of her baby in "Let There Be Light," and Miranda (Cynthia Nixon) settles down with Steve (David Eigenberg) in "The Ick Factor," unaware that more changes await her. The final eight episodes of the series nostalgically revisit earlier situations and characters, building to the inevitable finale, "An American Girl in Paris" -- a sensational two-parter that left the show's fans breathless (and more than a little sad the series had ended). The sitcom that changed sitcoms forever, Sex and the City didn't wear out its welcome -- in fact, it went out on something of a creative high. The eight shows included in this box are all top-notch; a more fitting ending to the girls' six-year odyssey could hardly have been imagined. Ed Hulse, Barnes & Noble
