HBO Big audience tunes in to see last bit of 'Sex'

The show's star said she'd prefer not to wait to do a movie based on the show.
LONG ISLAND NEWSDAY
Was it good for you? It certainly was for HBO after the series finale of "Sex and the City" attracted its largest audience ever.
Reports about the show's final taping said that multiple versions were filmed to keep the real ending a secret. In an interview, Sarah Jessica Parker (Carrie Bradshaw) discussed those alternative endings.
While viewers saw Carrie break up with Aleksandr Petrovsky (Mikhail Baryshnikov) in Paris and return to Manhattan with Mr. Big (Chris Noth), all three possible endings "brought me home to New York," Parker told USA Today last week. "The second one was that Petrovsky was coming home after me. And the third one was me coming home to New York alone."
While details are sketchy on a "Sex and the City" movie, Parker says she would rather do it sooner than later. And with the characters' story lines wrapping up like a modern-day, sexier version of "The Wizard of Oz" -- everyone gets what they wanted/needed -- what possible plot would the movie have?
Those who aren't big fans of Big might fast-forward six months to reveal a crushed and broken-hearted Carrie attempting to recover -- yet again -- from his inability to commit.
Or they could do a flashback story about how the girls first met (hmmm, a special-effects-plastic-surgery budget might be in order). In any case, given the success of the show and its finale, we haven't seen the last of "Sex."
