'Sex' to return July 21 on HBO

HOLLYWOOD, California (Reuters) -- HBO has set 9 p.m. July 21 as the new time for what promises to be one of the biggest TV events of the summer: the season premiere of Emmy-winning comedy "Sex and the City," Variety reports.

The cable network had been set to bow a fresh batch of 13 episodes of "Sex" this month, but that plan went out the window following series star Sarah Jessica Parker's announcement that she was pregnant. Production was halted for a few weeks; HBO execs decided in April to cut the number of episodes in the upcoming season to eight from 13.

With "Six Feet Under" having wrapped its second season Sunday, HBO will fill the 9 p.m. slot for the next few weeks with repeats from "Sex's" recent winter "mini-season."

The upcoming "Sex" episodes will culminate in the show's fourth season finale on September 8. The next week, September 15, HBO will bow the much-anticipated season premiere of "The Sopranos" at 9 p.m., followed by the season premieres of "Curb Your Enthusiasm" and "Mind of a Married Man" at 10 and 10:30 p.m., respectively.

I can't wait for the new season!

Man, we dont get HBO anymore, but even when we did I never was able to watch it. I think I am going to go and buy season 1,2, and 3 on DVD.

Is it the 5th season that is starting in July?

The people who were in my dorm room before my roommate and I had HBO and Showtime and, of course, paid for it monthly. Well, after they moved out the cable company never disconnected it. So my roommate and I had HBO and Showtime for free!!

Believe it or not, there are guys who watch it as well! Straight guys, at that! Although I don't get ALL of the references, I do like Samantha! I know that some people think that her life is lonely and shallow and only about sex, but I felt sorry for her when she told that guy she loved him, and he cheated on her! But the best episode was when she dated the guy who was "too big"! That was WAY too funny!!!
