Hi, Can somebody please tell me if First Season has something in Spanish?? (could be either subs or audio)

Thanks

Very happy with the product that I purchased. Only negative feedback is that an episode listing is missing, although easy enough to download this off the internet. Also the cover is a little flimsy and not a standard locking case. Other than the superficial aspects, the dvd's are great.

Many people out there look at this series as a mature, adult show about women and their real problems. This show is neither mature nor adult. This show is really just a glorified sitcom, with dirty talk and some very short (and not erotic) sex scenes. The 4 women are very superficial, and are not very realistic. Constantly eating out at posh restaurants in Manhattan (there are other burroughs in NYC, such as Queens and Brooklyn, where it is much cheaper to eat) every day, sleeping with a different man each week, buying as many things as they can, partying all hours of the night, and they still find time to work their professional jobs. These women are supposed to be "professionals", but if that were the case, they would never be able to keep up their lifestyles (even with doing Red Bulls and coke all day). I feel that these women are very unhappy, and they look for fullfilment through a hedonistic lifestyle. I hark back to the 1960's in the films L'avventura and La Dolce Vita, where this kind of lifestyle was depicted as cheap (spiritually speaking), hollow, shallow, and depressing (and it still is, regardless of what the media may tell you). Most of their affairs are quite meaningless, it's mostly sex without emotion, and the conversations remind me more of locker room talk written by sitcom writers. And the sex scenes (which many people told me they were so hot) are tepid at best. I have seen films by European art filmmakers (Bertolucci and Breillat, to name a few) that are light years more honest and artistic than anything this show can put out. Americans have very childish attitudes towards sex, almost childlike. They giggle at dirty talk, and try to show off their "knowledge" of sex, like when a 6th grader discovers the sex ed book, and brags about the new dirty words he/she has discovered. Overall, a very disappointing show. Do not fool yourselves...

Sex and the City - The Complete First Season is fantastic! The writing, acting, and chemistry between these 4 ladies is just magic. My favorite episode from this season is The Baby Shower where Carrie thinks she could be pregnant. Only 12 episodes but they are worth every penny. Buy it today!

From the my first viewing of Sex in the City on HBO, I was smitten. My husband remarked that he felt like a fly on the wall listening to what women talk about to each other. He loved Samantha but later settled on Charlot as his favorite caracture. I started out liking Carrie, but also ended liking Charlot best for her womanity but admiring Maranda for her no non-sense views. The first series is great, and to see the episodes uncut and uncensored makes the humor. I bought this for my husband and will get the whole set.

Good pilot series which introduces you to the characters in the show. I would recommend Season 1 to anyone who's heard so much about this series but have not seen it to-date.

Every night I watch re-runs of "Sex and The City." I love this show it's so unique and original. Sarah Jessica Parker is ah-mazing! I also saw her in "Failure to launch" and she was amazing in that too. She is so talented! If you love "Sex And The City" you need to buy this dvd right away!

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.

i have the second, the third and the fith season, but i'm not shure if the first season have spanish spoken or subtitles??
does any one can tell me? thanks

In 1998, just as the so-called "king" of all sitcoms was ending, Darren Star (creator of "Melrose Place" and "Beverly Hills, 90210") created his own - "Sex and the City," very loosely based upon the book by reknowned columnist and socialite Candance Bushnell. The series revolved around the misadventures of Carrie Bradshaw (played by Sarah Jessica Parker) and her group of self-obsessed girlfriends: successful lawyer Miranda (Cynthia Nixon), whose seemingly constant single status has led many to believe she's homosexual; naive Charlotte (Kristin Davis), whose life revolves around marriage; and Samantha (Kim Cattrall), who may have slept with every man in New York - on numerous occasions. Together, these young, beautiful, and talented women struggle through the late-90s (and eventually early millennium) dating scene, wondering why they're single, what makes men tick, and just looking for love in the Big Apple.

The first season, which aired in 1998, includes 12 delightful episodes. Within the first few enough personality types have been mentioned (such as "Modelizers," those who are addicted to sleeping with models) and enough ridiculous events have occurred to make the series potentially as memorable and quotable as "Seinfeld." The largest story of the first season revolves around Carrie's uncertain relationship with the mysterious Mr. Big ("Law & Order"'s Chris Noth). Carrie knows she loves him, deeply and truly, but does he love her?

"Sex and the City" is one of those series that makes you thank your lucky stars for HBO. The freedom that comes with running a show on HBO is incredible. There is uncensored and restrainless nudity and foul language (which may put off the more timid viewer), an essential part of the show. I imagine that without this, the show wouldn't have been anywhere near as popular or even as good, and on any normal station would probably have flopped. (To see what I mean, watch the HBO version of one episode, and then watch that same episode during the edited TBS re-runs.)

Not that the show's all about getting naked and cursing. There's much more here, particularly a stellar cast. Parker is a heroine for the 90s, and the other girls are normal enough for us to sympathize, but also more than funny enough to keep us entertained. Noth is unquestionably the male highlight, a tall, dark, and devilishly handsome man whose mysterious nature just adds to his charm. The cast is supported by writing that's thoughtful, witty, and creative. Unlike Meredith Grey's episodic musings on "Grey's Anatomy," Carrie Bradshaw's are truly meaningful, and I'm sure legions of women can identify with the problems faced by Carrie and her gang.

All in all, the first season of "Sex and the City," though short (each episode runs a mere 23 minutes on average), is a blast. The characters are down-to-earth and very human, the cast is brilliant, and if the show's attitude toward men is a little chauvinistic, the exemplary writing more than makes up for it. It's romantic, it's fun, it's clever - "Sex and the City" is an irresistible piece of TV candy that I would highly recommend to anyone looking to try a new flavor.

NOTE: If you are at all familiar with the show, or even have a hunch that you'll like it, I'd recommend you shell out the money to purchase the complete series set, a gorgeous package and a MAJOR improvement over the pitiful single-season releases.

Best bargain out there. Plus, almost every woman loves SATC so it'll be a sure hit if you're clueless as to what to get for that special someone.

sex and the city season 1. Fantastic. The stories are still good. I don't like the format/setup of the first season, or first few episodes, but it gets better from there. Love the show.

I got this in no time at all but the box was really badly torn and it had been taped up I hate when I have broke DVD boxes.

Before the ladies of Sex and the City had a clothing budget that rivaled Oprah's net worth, they were just four thirty-somethings focused on navigating the trials and tribulations of dating in Manhattan. The first season is pretty much verbatim from the Candace Bushnell book of columns for which the show is named, and it bears very little resemblance to the show that eventually evolved. The pilot looks very much like it was filmed in the mid-90s and seems to have been filmed months, if not years, before the following episodes. SJP's hair is a dingy brown, Kristin Davis is sporting a flipped bob haircut, Cynthia Nixon has a cell phone so huge it reminds me of Zach Morris', and Kim Cattrall has the worst hair extensions I've seen since Britney Spears. Also, the first season has a "man on the street" section where, similar to the HBO show Real Sex, the camera focuses on typical New Yorkers and asks them how they feel about the topic of Carrie's topic for the week. Carrie herself talks to the camera frequently as well, which can be disconcerting if you've only seen the later episodes. There are all sorts of little hidden gems in this original season, like the knowledge that Samantha actually had her eyes set on Big way before Carrie got him, Charlotte's been obsessed with marriage from the very beginning, and Miranda wasn't always such a workaholic. Though it's not nearly as good as the seasons that followed, the first season of Sex and the City is definitely worth watching to see the humble beginnings of a show that changed the way women view themselves, their friendships, and their relationships.

Sex and the City not only helped establish HBO as much as the Sopranos did, but it also gave adult viewers a show about grown-ups going through mature experiences often funny, sad, ridiculous and unexpected. The movie never felt forced or uninspired until last year, when it went off the tracks creatively. But even then, you still cared about what happened to these four women.It's comedy, its dramatic leanings and emotional diversions have often had the upper, stronger hand in the storytelling.This movie sort of grows on you, even though it's quite possibly the most man-hating thing ever created.

very please with the speed with which i received sex in the city

This product arrive in perfect condition and in a timely manner. I would reccomend it to anyone over the age of 18.

So says Kristin Davis, as Charlotte, when confronted with the idea of performing a particular sex act. This hilarious and clever series has many clever lines and funny moments that pass in the blink of an eye. I can't believe it has taken me this long to finally watch the show that everyone has been talking about for eight years.

Excellent- I expected it to be great, but it was even better than expected, I received it must faster than I anticipated. The show is just great. I have seen the shows I missed and I am looking forward to completing the entire series of the show.

Sex And The City is one of the comedies for the '90's, a slick, classy affair that's not afraid to push the boundaries to the limit. It's graphic (sort of) depiction of sex is ground-breaking, yet it doesn't forget it's main reason for being out there, to be funny. Sarah Jessica Parker, Kim Cattrall, Kristin Davis and Cynthia Nixon are exemplary as Carrie, Samantha, Charlotte and Miranda. The supporting players (Chris Noth, etc.) are helpful and the plotlines are racy and hilarious.
Viewing this DVD made me a weekly watcher of the HBO series. Everything you always wanted to know about women, men and sex as seen through the eyes of four ladies with something for everyone. Seemingly no subject is taboo with this group and it's all done in an appealing and intelligent way. Highly recommended for men and women.

It's the first time when Sex and the City came out on a DVD, the first season. I didn't get into Sex and the City when it was on T.V. Maybe because I didn't have enough time to watch it. But when it came out, I decided to buy and fell in love with it. I can watch those episodes over and over again. Those are just lives of ordinary young women who face the same problems we do. It's interesting to watch and learn something from them.

After watching this DVD, in 4:3 image mode, using my samsung 32" HD LCD, over an HDMI cable from my upconvert DVD player, I can say the image quality of this DVD is often GRAINY. It does not matter if the input is 480 or 720 or 1080, still GRAINY. Nor does it matter if the input cable is AV, or S-video or HDMI, still GRAINY. This is very disappointing.

This complete season can be watched in one afternoon. Get a bottle of merlot, and by the time the afternoon is done, you will be on the net' checking out flights to NYC. Of course since season one is so short, and most of the shows can be seen on basic cable late at night. Why not hop right into season #2. The stylists are on board, and the clothing and the outfits are sub par in this First Season, I can imagine HBO holding their breath wondering it this was going to be a hit or miss. 30 minutes is way too short for this show. Again very quick watch!

Like so many great shows, it takes a little while for them to really catch on - and by that time, you realize that you missed the early shows.

I really enjoyed watching the first episodes and getting the background story behind each of the main characters.

This show was groundbreaking and it is certainly a great collection for anyone that enjoys great comedy.

but if you liked Sex and the City, what's not to like?

Did not watch when it aired, but was recommended to me by a friend. Took advice and love it. Some of the outfits/shoes are ugly, but characters are awesome. Good show!

Love Sex and the city...Only have two of the seasons but plan on getting them all. And Amazon!!! Always a pleasure to do business with them!

I got what I ordered at a great price, in perfect condition, in a reasonable amount of time. Good seller.

These aren't women; these are gay men in dresses. Women don't sit around catting on and on about their sexual conquests in clinical detail and never bonding with any of them - this is a fantasy of some gay male producer in Hollywood. Absurd.

This is the best show for women (besides Gilmore Girls) - I absolutely LOVED season 1. My hubby hates this show...can't imagine why??? It makes me feel so empowered!

Hearing about this show for a long time I thought I better watch it to see what everyoe was talking about and it's actually pretty good. I cans ee why women love it and some men like it alos. I found the charactors really funny and wella cted. The stories where good but at times I wasent interested and found myself board with the topiocs the women where talking about. Overall the show is very real and that's great it's time they start to show real stuff on tv.

at first i thought this was a really dumb show so i never bothered to watch it. not even once. until i went to camp last summer and met this girl who watched it all the time. she told me it was actually very good and that i should give it a chance. i had nothing to watch one day and sex and the city just happened to be the only somwhat decent thing on at the time. to my surprise, it was funny. i ca hardlyget enoghu of it now. maranda kills me.

Sex and the City - The Complete First Season is wonderful. All the characters are amusing, funny and realistic. The stories have meanings and good plots. The Sex and the City - The Complete First Season is a must have for women and men. On a scale of 1 thru 10, I give Sex and the City - The Complete First Season a 7. The only thing that I think Sex and the City - The Complete First Season needs to improve on is a multiple ethnics/races of the cast.

This is great. I never had the chance to see the first season. Now I did and am looking forward to seeing the second as well.

So, the season begins! I must say, I missed many of these episodes on TV and things are starting to fall into place now. This refreshing comedy is just what woman ordered. It brings a new look on how the modern woman is and what some men are really like.
The only thing I didn't like was the last episiode which left me hanging. I immediately ordered season TWO!
Those who have an open mind and just want to laugh a while, go ahead, watch it!
