I used to watch this show when it first aired in Britain, I think from 1999-2004? I was in my early 20s and found it refreshing, funny and liked the characters. I bought the box set several years ago and still occasionally watch episodes. Its definitely dated a bit, and Carrie was a neurotic witch to her friends and her men, especially Aiden. Her worst moments are when she has to pay Aiden for her half of the apartment and she bleeping expects her friends to bail her out? She goes to Charlotte and whines to her that shes rich so should help her.
Also the scenes at Aiden's country shack when she "accidentally " phones big and invites him over, because shes bored? Talk about rubbing Aiden's nose in it. Carrie was vile, and very self centred. I loved it when Miranda called her out on her masochistic attachment to Big when they were clothes shopping.
