[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm now 48 and so was definitely the target demographic for this show in SITC was at its prime.

I didn't watch it in my 20's because I find it kind of depressing -- these women going from one failed relationship and hook-up to another.  I had kind of tried that myself at one point, and just didn't like it.  So watching the show was not entertaining for me.[/quote]

I kind of agree -- they never seemed that liberated, in the sense that they had a lot of sex, but it never seemed to make them happy.  Their relationships were usually a mess, they seemed to define themselves by their connection to a man, and they had a lot of "stuff" but never really seemed to enjoy it.  [/quote]

Yeah I think this is a lot of it.  They act all fancy free about being independent but then all they do is obsess over men.  Also agree that watching Samantha is so cringey - she doesn't come off as sexually free but actually super desperate and gross.  Charlotte and Miranda are both just caricatures (innocent wannabe Ralph Lauren housewife; bitchy corporate lawyer with a soft side).  I may be in the minority but I actually find Carrie less annoying than the others - at least I can relate to some of her sentiments.[/quote]
