So it's about three whores and their mother?

I've said before--in all seriousness--that I used to love SEX AND THE CITY until I got to around the third season and finally realized that it wasn't meant to be a satire. Well, I've come up with an addendum with the following epiphany/theory:

SEX AND THE CITY is a Bret Easton Ellis story if you just replace cocaine with shoes.

I'm thinking of putting that line in THE HEFNER MONOLOGUES: HOW HEFNERIAN, but I've already been warned about my use of esoteric/geek references losing my audience. If only I had Dennis Miller in my audience, he'd laugh.

Oh. My. God.

I never watched the show, but now I think I kind of understand it.

If you ever do see it, let me know if I'm onto something. I think I am, but you're the only person so far to comment. It works the more I think about it; just imagine the creators holding the characters from LESS THAN ZERO and RULES OF ATTRACTION as heroes and role models.

It really is highly unlikely I will ever watch it, but I'll try to keep this at the back of my mind in case it comes up in conversation.
