From Amazon.com
With these eight episodes, HBO's grand sitcom concluded, leaving untold numbers of women--and many men--feeling deprived. The six-year series certainly did not outlast its welcome; the final season is some of the best TV had to offer in 2004. In many ways, the eight episodes served as a single finale, with all four characters approaching a kind of destiny and happiness, the theme of this last half-season (which aired weeks after the first half). Carrie (Sarah Jessica Parker) continues her romance with Russian artist (Mikhail Baryshnikov), a flippantly arrogant man who's been around the block, but able to supply Carrie's needed desire for magic. Miranda (Cynthia Nixon) has settled down with Steve (David Eigenberg), but there is more that will change with her, including her address. Charlotte (Kristin Davis) continues to make baby plans now that the husband slot is filled quite nicely (Evan Handler). Samantha (Kim Cattrall) brings a good sense of drama to the show with a breast-cancer scare.
Going down the final stretch--and Samantha's cancer--gives the series a more serious tone, but there's always a jab to tickle the funny bone: Miranda's awkwardness with happiness, Charlotte's latest passion, Carrie typing someplace new, and Samantha getting into Paris Hilton territory. Like any series winding down, there is a wedding, a baby, old faces popping up, and some star-ladened new ones (like creative consultant Julia Sweeney as a nun). In the final two-part episode, "An American in Paris," Carrie faces her romantic destiny, but also solidifies herself as a fashion icon, an Audrey Hepburn for 21st-century television. In the penultimate episode, she asks her friends an emotional question: "What if I never met you?" Certainly fans can ask of themselves the same question and reminisce how much better TV became since they first tuned in these four women of the City. --Doug Thomas

Life goes on. (2005-07-27)  How can you not fall in love with these girls and the scrapes they continually get themselves into and out of? The split with the Season 6 parts one and two is decidedly annoying and a ploy to get more cash from the consumer. HOWEVER, the season finale is probably the BEST season finally of any series ever.
HBO Gouges Again: But that's just fabulous (2005-01-03)  Let's face it, you're going to buy it anyway if you have the rest, and though the ending was weak, and left things open for a follow-up movie that isn't going to happen, it does have some bright points. First I don't understsand why this couldn't have been packaged together with the first half--why did we have to wait? And like on season 5, where the dvd was full price for a half season, we get gouged twice on season 6, as a consumer, this is very annoying. This time, HBO added commercials for their shows at the beginning of the disc, they're easily by-passed. The alternate endings were fake, to throw off the press and are not particularly thrilling or long. Just minor vignettes. The deleted scenes are interesting, but why couldn't these have been included as extras with *each* season's release? For extras, we don't get much bang for our buck from this series, ever. It doesn't change with 6.2 Don't get me wrong, I love it, the show itself is fabulous. I just think that they took the easy road as far as putting together the series on dvd each year. In brief? Of course I bought it, I pre-ordered it! And I don't regret it, but as far as over-all bang for your buck, you're not getting it. Value for your dollar you get with seasons 2, 3, and 4--and that is why I only give 3 *** out of 5. Buy it, but don't get lured by the extras. Get lured (and hooked) by your four favourite girls, winding down a ground-breaking show. I'll miss it.
Pt 2 is must have!!! (2004-12-19)  Season 6 Pt 2 is a definite collector item for any sex in the city fan. I highly recommend this dvd set.Its a great addition to any and every other season
