In reply to SATC season 6 DVD is out, posted by tabitha on May 23, 2004, at 0:35:12
I really think the show fleshed out Miranda and Charlotte's growth more than Samantha and Carrie's.
But I was rewatching the first two seasons recently. And I understand Big's hesitation to make a commitment to her. She'd go from being totally subserviant to throwing these big tantrums. I can see where that would be a bit disconcerting. I think she grew a lot too. Although she still did the overly subserviant thing to the end - it really showed up with the artist.
I still thought those love scenes with Baryshnikov were a bit icky. I'm not quite certain why.
Oh, but that last episode! Especially Miranda's part. It made my therapist yell at me though. :( After I had seen it, I was bewailing the fact that I didn't love well enough to bathe my parents when they grew decrepit. And he was yelling about me being upset that I didn't want to bathe my parents! He doesn't watch the show, and didn't get what I was trying to say. He just thought I was being totally weird. I think he stores up those things in the "Dinah's semi-psychotic" ledger in his mind, without ever understanding the cultural sources of what I'm saying. Darn man watches all the wrong TV.
I got in my DVD already, even if I am miffed at HBO for selling two half seasons. :)
