I literally have watched every episode of Sex and the City over a dozen times and still thoroughly enjoy watching them all. No lie. Although the first season is somewhat painful to tolerate due to the really bad hair, the poor wardrobe choices of the 90s and the dialogue directed at the camera, I still HAVE to watch the entire season before I allow myself to proceed to the goldmine of seasons 2-6.
I remember the first time Sex and the City came into my life. I was a Junior in college and my girlfriend insisted I give it a shot despite my concerns for the "pornographic nature" and "bad taste in language". That's right... that was my honest opinion. I was a tad bit more conservative in those days. She invited me over to our R.A.'s apartment (that's where the stash was located) and we started with season 2 (she didn't want me to get turned off by season one for the reasons I mentioned previously). After watching my first episode, I was hooked. It was compelling. It was like watching a performance of Cirque du Soleil... amazing tricks, costumes, and oh so entertaining, but with a slight fear that if I were to try it myself, it would lead to my demise. (But I SO wanted to try anyways...)
Unfortunately, I do not have the same love for the movies as I do for the actual series. I feel the movies are FAR too cheesy and flashy and don't have the same grit, truth, substance or humor. Just my opinion though. Now, do I own the first movie and plan to own the second? Yes. Absolutely. It's an institution I have no choice or option to leave now... I am too far in and they are all too much a part of my life. Love them.
If you have yet to see the entire series or both movies... Go. Act. Watch. Trust me.
