As for Sex and the City being HBO and therefore must have redeemable qualities... is HBO magical in that all in can spit out is worthwhile? Though I've not seen a lot of HBO stuff, beyond Curb Your Enthusiasm, The Ricky Gervais Show, and Extras, that I can think of
Curb is amazing, but there are so many good shows they've produced over the years. The Wire is arguably the greatest show ever made, and The Sopranos, Six Feet Under, Deadwood, and Rome are all amazing just to name a few. And as for comedies, Eastbound & Down, Flight of the Conchords, Da Ali G Show, and Mr. Show with Bob and David are some of the funniest you'll ever see I guarantee it.
