Sex and the City - it all ends in tears (TV FREE AT LAST ALERT)

A horse (Sarah Parker) walks into a bar, bartender asks, "why the long face?"

[The Mayor]

good riddence

[Rome2000]

Good riddance!

Sex is the last thing that comes to mind when one gets a look at the gnarly looking hags on that show.

Somebody at HBO is on drugs.

[Arioch7]

LOL! Thats the funniest thing I have heard all year.

[Long Cut]

Amen, brother. Whenever her horseface pops up on the tube, Mrs. Cut says, "Look, honey! Dee Snider got a sex-change!"

Look at pics of the two. If they weren't separated at birth, they sure have the same DNA somewhere...

[Paul Atreides]

She is just like Chelsea, they both need the media to tell everyone that they are sexy. And, we know that the media wouldn't steer us wrong, would they? ;-)

I guess I am too old and not cosmopolitan enough to like this show.

To think that there are actually women this old who are still whining about how men act. Come on.

I keep wanting to yell at the TV, "Who would want to be with you, you're such a b$%ch."

Perhaps we can do a Korean War version of Band of Brothers.....Now that the Sopranos are done, Dennis Miller is gone....I am not quite sure why I am spending the money every month. Or maybe I am the only straight guy who watches OZ...

Perhaps we can do a Korean War version of Band of Brothers

Not necessary. Just turn Stephen Ambrose's "Pegasus Bridge" into a film next. It's about the British paratroopers on D-Day.

Here is a Dune joke I made up:

By means of a wormhole and several minutes of explained technobabble, Captain Jean-Luc Picard's ship, the USS Enterprise exited the wormhole near an unrecognizable desert planet. Having forseen this occurance, Emperor Paul Maud'dib and the amassed armadas of the Landsraad were there waiting for them.

"I am Captain Jean-Luc Picard of the Federation starship Enterprise".

Maud'dib answered "We know who you are and know about the forbidden technology aboard your ship. Turn around, leave our universe, and never come back.....or suffer the unpleasant consequences".

Captain Picard replied "Come now, surely we can reach an understanding. We would like to study your culture. In OUR universe we talk things over and celebrate our differences by -".

Maud'dib interrupted by saying "Well in our universe we DON'T" and the armada blew the Enterprise to smithereens. The End.

I know it has nothing to do with this thread, but it still gives me a laugh.

After 9/11, my sister happened to catch her first episode of Sex and the City. She called me and said, "No wonder they want to kill us..!"

[ambrose]

Oz is HBO's best show. I'd like to see Beecher and Schillinger released at the end of the current season. Perhaps have it be an "Odd Couple" drama where the two become roommates.

[Mark Turbo]

its celebration of four New York women's love of men, shoes and cocktails

Not necessarily in that order, of course.

Free at last, free at last, thank God Almighty, TV is freed at last from this rubbish! - Ivan

Amen. Praise the Lord and pass the remote.

[GeneD]

It says something about this show that, back when Congress was pressuring show-biz over violence and teens, Entertainment Weekly (an AOL Time Warner company) ran a mealy-mouthed mea culpa over trashy entertainment in which it called Sex and the City (an AOL Time Warner production) BAD!

But hey! What do I know? To repeat myself from another thread from some time back, I read (or tried to read) Candace Bushnell when I subscribed to the New York Observer. Phillies and Mets fans! Remember Lenny Dykstra and his chewing tobacco? What he did to tobacco Candace did to sex. EWWWW! YUCKKKKK!! GROSS!!!!!

Talk about O-VER-RA-TED! (clap, clap, clapclapclap)

[Mr. Jeeves]

I just got the DVD set of "Fawlty Towers."

You'll love it. It's absolutely great.

[Cvengr]

Parker, ...also gave birth last year ...She and her husband, actor Matthew Broderick, were upset by media attention surrounding the birth ...Crowds of paparazzi had camped outside their New York apartment for weeks in the hope of getting the first photograph of the baby.

Sortof like Jacko's dilemma. Maybe Matthew can hop in that Dino Ferrari from Ferris Bueller's Day Off and hold the baby up high as it clears the bump doin' 90 in honor of Jacko's Hollywood tradition.

[The Duke]

I make it a point not to watch any television program that
I suspect reinforces the liberals' worldview.

[jammer]

Amen. I can tolerate ugly. I can tolerate obnoxious. I cannot tolerate both. Cynthia Nixon is both. I hope her baby is more presentable than she.

It went on to win two Emmy awards and was acclaimed by critics for supposedly showing girls gossiping like real women, even though it was actually penned by a team of homosexual scriptwriters.

Well, duh!

I'm sorry, but the cosmopolitans were the tip off. Most NYC women drink vodka & tonic, or some such.

The cocktails were far too girly to be drank by women.

[Oschisms]

Honestly, if I took a lady out for a drink and she asked for a cosmo...

I'd reach over and ascertain what kind of genitalia she(?) was packin'.
