Where to Start?

I've been reading the reviews of Sex & the City (hereafter referred to as SATC).  Now, understand, I only watched the show 1 time - just so I could understand what all the single women were raving about - still don't understand.

It seems that the NEW SATC, as opposed to the OLD SATC, is mostly focused on clothes, sex, clothes, slutty remarks & actions, clothes, a wedding, clothes, and, well, clothes.

Judging from the original, I'm having a hard time (oh, how Samantha would smirk at that) seeing what's different about it.  Except the "girls" are in their 40's and 50's.  Which, as we all know, is just the age that makes men salivate - you know how anxious they are to bed the menopausal woman.

Must be that misty glow we get when the power surges kick in.
