Here's Why We Need Another Season Of "Sex And The City"

It has been way too many years since the last season of "Sex and the City" aired, yet we are all still obsessed. We can sit and watch reruns for hours even though we already know exactly what is going to happen. It is almost as if the lives of Carrie, Miranda, Samantha and Charlotte were ones that we wanted to have, and by watching season after season we were able to imagine what life would be like as women in "Sex and the City."

We all had that one favorite character that we wanted to be in our next life. Mine happened to be Carrie and sometimes when I sit here and write, I feel like I am just like her without the amazing shoes, an apartment in the city and my own Big.

We love imagining our lives as the characters and many years later we are still obsessing over the show. I think now would be a perfect time for another season.

1. We are still watching reruns... 12 years later.

Enough said. We are still binge-watching a show that is over a decade old. A new season at this point would be much more entertaining.

2. The women's lives were a complete fantasy and we could continue to fantasize with them every second.

Carrie was a freelance writer, never had to worry about a deadline and could still afford fancy shoes and a nice studio apartment. Charlotte had the perfect little New York job as a gallery girl; how many people can still make a living off of just being a gallery girl? Samantha made PR work look easy, how many times in the show was she actually working, anyway? Miranda's life was a bit less of a fantasy, having the serious job as the lawyer, but she still had it easy, too. Either way, we love the fantasy aspect.

3. The show was better than any sex ed class we ever took in high school and sometimes a refresher course is needed.

I definitely learned more from watching "Sex and the City" about sex than I actually did in school. Everything you needed to know about vibrators to threesomes, you learned from watching, and all the weird, kinky things that you were afraid to try in the bedroom, you knew Samantha Jones has tried once before. That was your sign of reassurance.

4. We are currently lacking in the entertainment world that has a show with that much fashion and glamour.

Can you think of a current show that has as much fashion and glamour as "Sex and the City" had? Carrie's closet of shoes was enough to make me drool. Can we also talk about how glamorous the women looked even just going to Sunday brunch? Yes, that is also part of the fantasy, but still the fashion and glamour was unreal.

5. We can still hum the opening instrumental every single time.

Let's face it, that tune is never getting old. We could hear it without seeing the TV screen and still vividly picture Carrie as she walks down the street, gets splashed by a truck going through a puddle and then sees herself on the side of a city bus. It is never going to get old.

6. We need a reminder that women can be independent and successful.

Although the women of "Sex and the City" are fictional characters they have taught us the importance of being strong independent women and that women can be successful all on their own. The reality stars that we spend so much time watching now do not depict true independent women.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
