The last two episodes of the series are: An American Girl in Paris – Part Une and Part Deux.

Before Carrie heads off to Paris with her lover she has one last dinner with her girls. They all find themselves having a hard time saying goodbye, life wouldn’t be the same without Carrie in the City. Carries expectations of her time in Paris are let down by the fact that Alexander is always working and she is very lonely wondering around alone. Carrie decides this life isn’t for her and either is Alex, it is time to go back to her true love, New York. This is when Mr. Big finds her in the hotel, as she is about to check out. Big announces the words she has been waiting six years (and six seasons) to hear, she is the one for him. They decide to go back to New York and be together.

Samantha’s relationship with Smiths grows because she realizes throughout Cancer he has been there for her.  Miranda chooses to take care of Steve’s mother after she has a stroke even though the two have never seen eye to eye.  After Charlotte and her husband Harry realize they may not be able to have a child on their own, they decide to adopt. They get a baby girl from China and couldn’t be happier with the experience they are given.

These two episodes were by far my favorite. My reasoning is, for all 6 seasons I was waiting for Big and Carrie to finally be together permanently. Also, when Charlotte gets her life long dream, a baby, it is a very happy moment. Samantha beats cancer and Miranda ends up in a happy family with her baby and husband. I loved the entire plot of this story and where it ended. Now, I must go because there are also two movies based on this series that I’m anxious to watch!

I will wrap up this season and series in the next two blog posts. Therefore this blog will be about the next 8 episodes, which begins with “The Domino Effect” and will end with “Splat!”

When Carries Ex-lover, Mr. Big is in need of heart surgery Carrie surprises herself when she has a very hard time handling the news.  After Big cuts Carrie short of the possibility of another relationship together she meets artist Alexander at a gallery. After Alexander’s and Carries relationship progresses significantly they announce they will both be moving to France for Alexander’s new art exhibit.

Miranda continues to date the new guy in her building Robert, although she has a hard time finding the right moment to introduce him to her babies daddy, Steve. She also comes to a realization she cannot say, “ I love you” back to Robert. At her sons first birthday party she finds herself alone with Steve when they confess their love together. Robert does not handle this well and begins sabotaging their relationship. Later, they finally tie the not in Miranda’s idea of the perfect wedding, non-traditional.

Charlotte realizes acupuncture may be her only hope to get pregnant; she has tried almost everything else up to this point. To her excitement she later finds out she is pregnant, this ends up being hard news when she soon after miscarries. Charlotte receives a dog from a lady she met in the park; the dog helps Charlotte move on from the disappointment.

Samantha has decided she is in love with her forty-something body, except one thing. She would like to have a breast enlargement. This procedure leads to some devastating news; Samantha finds a lump, which turns out to be breast cancer. She must deal with the traumatic experiences involved with cancer, including her hair falling out.

I will now discuss the next seven episodes of the season starting with Pick-a-little, Talk-a-little and ending with Boy, Interrupted. Carrie was fortunate enough to have a select few of her columns published into a book, which sells very well. She receives a big check from these sales; this disappoints her author boyfriend Berger as his book was dropped. Berger informs Carrie their relationship is over in the form of a Post-it-note. In my opinion this is about as low as a text break-up in 2013, and a clear indication they weren’t made for each other.

Charlotte and her man Harry end in a big argument all because she thought he would have instantly asked her to marry him after she converted to Judaism for him. After a few weeks apart they run into each other at a singles event at the church, this is where they realize they are meant to be and Harry Proposes. Although Harry wasn’t the exact

image Charlotte painted as the perfect man for her, I think Harry was the best thing that could of happened to her.

Miranda’s successes as a lawyer are cutting into her time with her son Brady and she is forced to prioritize what is really important to her. When Miranda decides to put her love for Steve to rest she falls for a new man in her apartment building. He helps both her and son Brady fight the chicken pox, since he is a doctor.

Samantha has now found a man in her life named Smith; although the two act like they are dating she could never admit it.

Season six was the final season of sex in the city, which aired in 2003. The first three episodes are: To Market, to market, Great Sexpectations, and The Perfect Present. 

At this point Carrie is dating a man named Berger who from the beginning has a very stand off personality towards Carrie. You could argue this is the starting point of all their future problems. Unfortunately during these three episodes Carrie happens to run into her ex- fiancée Aidan, who is carrying a baby. Carrie had dated Aidan twice before, but after getting cold feet about taking the plunge with him; their engagement was called off, for good. She then later hears how Berger over reacts when his ex leaves a voicemail on his phone when Carrie is over and wonders if she is ready to handle this type of relationship. 

Many months after Miranda’s break up with Steve and a baby with him later, she finally comes to her senses and realizes that she truly does love him. It was a little too late for Miranda because Steve now has a girlfriend. Charlotte has now found the man of her dreams; the only problem is she never pictured herself with a man like him. When they realize they want to be married Charlotte decides to convert to Judaism in order to make their marriage possible.

As described in my about page, I chose to write my coherent blogs on the television series Sex in the City. My basic relationship with this series is that my roommate had loved the series, that she watched quite some time ago. Trusting her word and looking for a new T.V series to indulge in (maybe even become obsessed with) I began watching Sex in the City. I did enjoy them quite a bit and always looked forward to watching the next episode or season. 

Since I decided to make my blogs about the final series and all the drama that happens within it, I will begin with a quick summary of seasons 1-5. I will also introduce the four main characters, the first character being Carrie. Carrie is a columnist in New York (where the story is located) where she writes a sex column in a newspaper. Carries love life is a roller coaster, much like all the other women in the show. Even through the roller coaster she always ends up running back Mr. Big. The second woman Miranda, is a successful lawyer, who has a hard time realizing that she belongs with the nerdy bartender Steve who she never thought was her “type.” Thirdly is Charlotte, an art gallery manager with conservative morals who in the final season does not end up with the prestigious type of man she always thought she would be with. Finally Samantha, I guess you could say she is the "fun" one. She is a PR agent who proves she never has any commitment to one particular man, often referred to as a man-eater.
