I'm watching the movie of Sex and the City while I write this. It's truly awful, and I say this as someone who was a fan of the series. (I'm still watching it because I've got a pile of laundry to sort.)
I wonder who else falls into the intersection of people who read DTWOF and watch SATC. While the characters are at close to polar opposites of the cultural spectrum (crunchy politically obsessed anti-materialist lesbians in Minnesota vs. fashion obsessed consumerist heterosexuals in search of true love in New York), the stories actually have a lot in common. Both are soap operas, and both portray worlds where friendships between women endure over time in spite of relationships, jobs, kids, and everything else that life throws at you. And, in spite of name of the show, most of the time SATC passes the Mo Movie Test -- women talk to each other about things other than men (usually shoes, but I still think that counts).
