TOO HAUTE FOR TV On its return to your TV, the Sex and the City movie on DVD will make you miss the first days of Carrie and Big

It was so shiny on the big screen, maybe we just didn’t notice that the Sex and the City movie is nothing more than a paean to the joys of conspicuous consumption, sacrificing character for cliché, and, yes, love of labels. Even the two-disc edition's lackluster EXTRAS — a self-important chat between Parker and director Michael Patrick King, a mini-doc on costume designer Patricia Field — feel like commercials. Worth breaking up with, on a Post-it. C
