This review is from: Sex and the City: The Complete Fifth Season (DVD)

Only 8 episodes on only two discs and they still want the same price!!! No Way….better off to wait and buy it used. I knew that this season would be less volume wise, but I also thought the the price would reflect that as well. This is outrageous!!!
The quality of the shows were also lower this season. I have the first 4 seasons and wanted this one to complete my set, but I think that I will pass for now!

Season cut short, September 8, 2003
By 
John Hobbs “Wendy Kuhn” (Marshall, TX) –
(REAL NAME)
  

This review is from: Sex and the City: The Complete Fifth Season (DVD)

Since season 5 was cut short due to Sarah Jessica Parker’s pregancy, I think they should combine season 5 and 6 for one price instead of charging the same thing for only 8 episodes. I adore Sex and the City and will miss it dearly. At least I have my DVDs to watch over and over. I love my “girls of summer”!!!

However, I think other fans will agree with me when I say that Season 5 was pretty much the lowpoint of the series. I record all of the episodes of every season and watch them frequently . . . I haven't touched my Season 5 tapes since it aired.<p>Initially, it was supposed to be 13 episodes (instead of the normal 18) to accomodate Sarah's pregnancy. We were supposed to get 8 episodes in the summer and then she was to return to the show for 5 more episodes the following spring. As you can see, that never happened. We were left with 8, "okay" episodes. </p><p>My main complaint and its a big one, is the pricing of the DVD "set", if you can call it that. This is the shortest season of the series, 8 episodes, compared to the normal 18. Now why in hell would I pay just as much money for 8 episodes as I would for 18? I mean, maybe if they'd added some special features to this set to make up for a lack of episodes, I might consider buying this. However, knowing what I do about the Sex and the City DVDs I own, I highly doubt that anything has been added. </p><p>In short, I cannot recommend this purchase simply because HBO is asking the same from us (monetarily speaking) and only delivering about a quarter of what they have in the past (episodes and episode quality).

HBO’s pricing is laughable., October 17, 2003

This review is from: Sex and the City: The Complete Fifth Season (DVD)

I am an avid watcher of Sex and the City, I adore the show. However, I think other fans will agree with me when I say that Season 5 was pretty much the lowpoint of the series. I record all of the episodes of every season and watch them frequently . . . I haven’t touched my Season 5 tapes since it aired.

Initially, it was supposed to be 13 episodes (instead of the normal 18) to accomodate Sarah’s pregnancy. We were supposed to get 8 episodes in the summer and then she was to return to the show for 5 more episodes the following spring. As you can see, that never happened. We were left with 8, “okay” episodes.

My main complaint and its a big one, is the pricing of the DVD “set”, if you can call it that. This is the shortest season of the series, 8 episodes, compared to the normal 18. Now why in hell would I pay just as much money for 8 episodes as I would for 18? I mean, maybe if they’d added some special features to this set to make up for a lack of episodes, I might consider buying this. However, knowing what I do about the Sex and the City DVDs I own, I highly doubt that anything has been added.

In short, I cannot recommend this purchase simply because HBO is asking the same from us (monetarily speaking) and only delivering about a quarter of what they have in the past (episodes and episode quality). Even though I love the series, I will not purchase this item.
