Hi all thanks for all the wonderful feedback I appreciate it so much! Up for patreon please let me know ❤ You all are my kind of people and this show is a load of pants!
Patreon.
Patreon please
I probably wouldnn't subscribe to Patreon. Also, I reached out to Alex on insta and he was nice enough to send me a message! He's really awesome! Talk to him again!!! Rest your voice! Lots of fluids and rest! Happy 2022 to you! :)
Yes to Patreon! Thank you so much. Have a Happy New Year and please rest your voice.
I’d do patreon to do a rewatch with y’all. I found my people! 😛
What I hate the most is the actresses are going around complaining about being criticized in real life for aging and then they do this series that is so disrespectful about aging. What the hell?
When they were having lunch, I took that whole convo as them ribbing and joking on each other. My friends and I do that all the time anytime we get a cramp or pull a muscle just for breathing. It's a self depreciating thing. I was actually laughing at that scene because it was very relatable.
Because what they really wanted was for everyone to tell them they hadn't aged a day.
@@Outdafakeonz My hubby and I do the same thing although we are ten years younger than the characters. Every time we get an ache or pain we complain about how old we are. That doesn't mean it needs to be beat to death in this series. They are portraying the ladies as if they escaped from the nursing home for a cocktail.
@@squisitissima2810 It's like the difference between Golden Girls and this schlock. They had jokes about being old, but they were actually funny and just way less morose and depressing.
Yes, agreed. They make Carrie look and act ancient but at 50 she is not OLD!
Carrie can afford homecare (which you probably don't need for a hip surgery, but I digress). Carrie has a fancy apartment with a doorman, elevator, and walk in shower. Instead Carrie chooses to live in her old apartment and make her friends into her pee schedule slaves? Somewhere in London, Samantha is drinking a martini and congratulating herself on her decision to leave New York.
Dying at pee schedule slaves 🤣🤣
And kim catrall is also sipping her tea and minding her business.
Not to mention that all these years later, why would Carrie have kept her apartment at all? Sure it made sense in the beginning but not to lie fallow for years after they got married. And honestly she seemed to write in coffee shops and other places so doesn’t seem realistic that she would have kept the old place.
Exactly! She has the funds why inconvenience her friends
😂😂 harsh but true
I'm 68, and I feel sorry for these ole biddies.
🤣🤣🤣love your comment
I’m 64 and feel very young compared to them lol
@@jjkatz IKR? In 2015, I returned to school to get my BA after my husband passed away; I entered a very changed universe, interacting with a very diverse arena, and never had the kinds of awkward conversations that this gang indulges in. WTF?
@@maryturpel8413 Bravo to you another beautiful chapter of your life.
This Satc girls--- Oh No No No
@@marinabayview Thanks!
Samantha didn't ghost them, she grew.
Big was able to leave his ex-wife a million bucks, and Carrie couldn’t hire nurses with all the money she was left? 🙄
Blueberry smoothies in fancy Manhattan bars aren't cheap.
Carrie told them she can hire her own nurse, but they insisted she don't.
@@travytypo and she let them do such a bad job by her own standards, so she could criticize them as friends, and make them seek for her approval over and over again - manipulation all over....
@@travytypo,betcha Carrie wishes she'd ignored them and hired the nurse after hearing Che telling Miranda to say she likes it or they'd stop.
🤣🤣🤣
Che is a low-life and a total downgrade from Steve. I don’t care how miserable Miranda is. She could have gotten a divorce.
A low-life indeed.
It was very rude of her to start smoking weed at Carrie’s apartment without her permission
@@mayln163 and in the ELEVATOR!
I agree when you feel this unhappy in your marriage divorce is definitely your best option.
Miranda seems to have forgotten how she felt when Steve cheated on her. I remember her screaming, "You broke us".
They gave Miranda all of Carrie's worst traits. Selfish & inconsiderate. Miranda wasn't this awful in SATC.
Carrie's still pretty awful on her own.
Used to adore Miranda. I identified with her romantic struggles the most because before a man found me sexy I had to convince him I was adorable. Now I don't want to be Miranda and does anyone else wonder if she kept the card the cop gave her after he ONS'ed her and left her the number for AA meeting?
The real Miranda wouldn’t have done that to Carrie. And New York apts are small there’s no way Miranda wouldn’t have heard Carrie needing to go to the bathroom. The neighbors would have been WTF keep it down. Miranda was barking like a dog like what was that?!!
They’re all awful. I think it was said here, but I agree that Miranda the character and Cynthia the actress remind me of Miranda in the Real Me, when she gets full of herself towards the end. It’s like Cynthia is frozen in time of that character in that particular moment.
She was actually surprisingly nurturing due to her caring for Steve's mom.
I was surprised they didn't make a line like 'and just like that, Miranda CHEated on Steve' - though maybe that is too clever for them now.
Yep. Poor Steve. They made his character into a real idiot.
Series Carrie would’ve gone for it
Carrie’s seemed taken aback by Miranda having sex in the kitchen. she also spoke up for Steve in the first Sex in the city film -- and Samantha also mentioned to Miranda - “it was just a slip”-- a mistake--- Miranda affair doesn’t seem to be a “slip” it is a full on game change- or lifestyle change. I would be okay with it, except the writing is completely AWFUL ---
SAME!!!!
@@koquikoquito I’m not so sure about that. Deep down Carrie always tried to do the right thing.
This show just reeks of personal agendas being performed on camera. Carrie's snide ATM comment was directed at Kim. Cynthia's personal journey as a gay woman. However, in the show Miranda was very aware that she was so straight, when she tried to fake gay her way into a partner's party, it was an epic fail. Miranda was judgmental of Samantha's sexual fluidity when she dated María. Miranda cheated on Steve and was almost unforgiving. This show should be called Double-Standards and the City.
Cynthia is actually bisexual.
@@djpekky Who gives af? Miranda is straight.
I feel like they missed a real opportunity here with the whole “hip replacement” storyline. Who else thought the doctor was going to come back to tell Carrie it was her years of wearing high heels that caused the damage to her hip?
Totally agree. I thought that's where they were headed with this story. I didn't take it as another "ageist" knock on the girls, but more as a life lesson to someone who's worn high heels for everything from parties, to shopping, to even walking Aidan's dog (eyeroll). But instead, they glossed over that obvious take in favor of more woke bullshit about Charlotte's daughter. WTF?!!
@@EvokeSelf I already gave up on heels 👠 lol
Dolly Parton always wears high heels, and has never had hip surgery and she's 75. The opportunity they missed was educating people that the reason Carrie's hip went out was years and years of smoking, depleting her body of Vitamin C, thus ruining her cartilage. A deficiency of vitamin C causes scurvy which is malformation of collagen. Therefore, this deficiency can cause pigmentation of the skin, open and bleeding wounds on the skin and mucosal membranes and reduced mobility caused by degeneration of the cartilage since collagen makes up the connective tissues at the joints.
Lol! Bc SJP has a shoe line!
And made it congenital! She would have already had problems from the heels & all the sex way before now! Lol
As a 53 year old who needed a Total Hip Replacement after an accident I am extremely insulted. Also as an RN it’s completely unrealistic. Do they not consult with any healthcare providers? I am Boycotting the show and the horrible greed that is it’s true essence. All about making money and no creativity. So disappointing. Thanks for the place to vent.
I used to work in the billing department of a physical therapy office, and there's no way we would see a patient until we had reviewed their insurance coverage and had the patient sign off on it.
I see the screenshot of them getting Carrie out of bed and I'm like, "Use the call bell! Call don't fall!"
Totally agree. I'm a PICU RN and this is ridiculous. My dad had a hip replacement before he was 40 due to a bad car accident. I hope you are doing well.
Oh get over yourself it is a television show and not reality.
Suspension of disbelief is what allows us to enjoy fiction. If a writer does not do the research a contradictory moment can take a viewer out of the story. That is a sign of bad writing.
I am 65 and this is an insult to “mature” women. I’m 10 yrs “older “ than these characters and they’re 10 times more pathetic. Give me a break. This would never happen with the original characters.
Agreed! Especially for NYC savvy women!
I agree it’s ridiculous
I hear you! These women acti like they are 90 not 55.
My mum is 65. She looks amazing, never had any work done. Her mum, my gran looked really young for her age too! My mum looks a lot younger than SJP. What we are seeing is the price for excessive exercise and extreme dieting. It ages the body faster!
This show should NEVER have been green lit. It’s absolutely awful! They have made every character so unlikable in such a short time. Carrie seemed more upset about Big jilting her at their wedding than when he died. She’s gotten over it very quickly compared to how damaged she was in the first movie. Miranda is awful. All the work they did between her and Steve was for nothing. The women act like their in their 70’s not their 50’s. It’s not a fun show anymore and shoving all these woke agendas down our throat in every episode is exhausting.
100% agree
I said the same thing about Carrie’s reaction to Big not showing for the wedding!! She mourned for a year over that and was barely sad when he died?!
It would be more realistic if Carrie had to have a bunion surgery due to her love of walking everywhere in heels for 30-35 years. That would be more of a cutesy Golden Girls type way of handling age as it actually occurs rather acting like these women are frail and near death. And Che/Miranda...I guess they are showing they really can't act unless they basically play themselves in real life now. Great way to trailblaze ugh.
Or fell off one of her sky-high heels and sprained her ankle
Yes! Bunion surgery! That would've fitted perfectly and they could've talked all about her feet being wrecked from all the years of Manolos
@@untameyourflame Yeah they could have even made it stylish for Carrie and be back in creating trends with more flats, kitten heels or trendy sneakers. Also more on brand for Covid since wtf of any age is walking in 5 inch heels and a mask? And if we need to talk about health, I would think menopause would be fitting as well.
There acting like their in their 80 s ! Even tons of partying in your 30 s doesn’t make you this decepid.. who wrote this s*i*?
@@jfknightom totally agree!! It's like the writers have lost touch with age and what is relevant at that age along with how to creatively discuss it and include it in a show
My mom is 63 years old. She looks like she could be my sister. And she’s super active and works 12 hours in a plant making F150s. She’s fun and full of life. The way these people act on this show reminds me of my grandparents. I’m truly confused. But I also watched Mrs. Doubtfire yesterday and she was supposed to be 60 years old!!!!! Like wtf is Hollywood thinking. Mrs. Doubtfire was all of 75 maybe 80! Don’t let these shows destroy your vision of what aging truly is.
Well, to be fair, Mrs. Doubtfire wasn't a woman, she was a character played by Robin Williams, who I guess was in his early 40s then.
Even Robin was still active into his 70s shopping at his local bike store. These writers just don’t know how active seniors can be.
I think it's OK to be honest about the ways in which aging sucks (let's be honest -- it's not all roses, and in the end, it leads to death), but this show is not hitting the mark at all.
Everyone ages differently
ok the thing with miranda wasn't even sexy it was so cringe, plus she is married (yeah i know steve cheated on her first but that was years ago and they worked it out) but wth was that!!!
I agree
He cheated because she pretty much turned frigid
Agreed!!!!
That scene was not even remotely sexy. They have taken the sex out of sex and the city.
@@emma2370 Her sex scenes were always cringe. Never sexy at any age. This was just unfortunate and gross. God, it was as awful as when Samantha had sex with her 60 something creepy neighbor.
The Miranda sex and Carrie peeing scene was maybe the most uncomfortable thing I have ever seen. This show is complete garbage. Its depressing. Its uninspired. I don't think they can make the characters look older or worse.
I have no words.
I am not a writer but I think it would have been better for Samantha’s character to have passed away from breast cancer. And memorialize Samantha by creating a charity /organization for women/families who are going through the challenges of breast cancer. This scenario would have set the stage for introducing new characters to the show . Also, Stanford would never just leave without saying his good bye in-person. I felt it would be better to have Stanford die from Covid related issues - much more believable . Women in the city are also generally active, I don’t see any of the characters exercising like the did in the series. I think that would minimize the whining about how old they are and be more proactive in improving strength/diet/ mental health/ health bc they are at the age when women are going thru menopause (which has not been addressed either ??) And lastly, no one wears masks on the subway ?!? This show is AWEFUL !
Yes, exactly! I thought it would be more empowering for aging women. I'm 58 and all about mental health, diet, and working out. And, yes agree about having Samantha and Stanford pass for those reasons. This is the age group we lose friends to death - that is real. But how we navigate it and realize how sacred life is, could be empowering to showcase in this series.
And just like THAT, you're a better writer than those so-called writers of that awful show! 😂
I made the same comment about Stanford. He would never just leave like that. Someone pointed out that they would have had to re-write other episodes to give it justice. But given how bad this is, that wouldn’t be a bad thing
I was thinking the same thing too but I think they don’t want to kill samantha off because they secretly want her to change her mind and come back. Lol
@@_steeni they want Samantha to want to come back but they want the opportunity to turn her down. In their dreams thought...hahaha! They shows writers are behaving like mean college girls making characters run off like fickle little girls instead of respectfully laying them to rest for good.
I am no longer watching the show … just your reviews! 😂
They are so much better!
Right!? Lol
Me too. The reviews are more interesting than the show.. 😷
Spot on!! The reviews are 1000 times better than the stupid show. I stop watching after the 2nd episode.... ATROCIOUS!!!
Me too. This episode was the final nail in the coffin. Too stupid.
Anthony is definitely the best character on this show. It seems like he’s the only one who is allowed to have fun.
Thank god for Anthony
He's the only one who knows who he is and doesn't give a shit 🤷🏻♀️
Have to ask one more question: Why the hell didn’t Carrie just use the *handrail* to go up the stairs of her apartment building, instead of the umbrella??? Nobody uses a cane to go up the staircase! They use the handrail (that’s what it’s effing for), and they carry the cane. That was so painful to watch.
So, in this one episode, the writers literally destroy the whole love story of Miranda and Steve 🙄
We all saw that Miranda was going to have some affair with Che, but for Miranda to then say to Carrie - she has been miserable forever! LIKE HELLO????? We watched six seasons of SATC of Miranda and Steve's love story. Then that stupid ass first movie, where they had Steve cheat on her, and they got back together!! Even in the second movie, they seemed very good!!!
Do they think we, as viewers, have fucking amnesia????? And after Miranda almost cut Steve out of her life for cheating, she goes and does this????? Someone explain this bullshit! Oh, that's right, there is none!!! This is absolute garbage!
As someone who shipped Miranda and Steve, I'm so sad it has come to this 😞
I couldn't agree more. Out of all the SATC boyfriends/husbands, Steve seem to be the one with the most character growth. We saw Steve go from a bit of a man child to owning his own bar and being being good dad to Brady and Miranda realized that he was so the guy for her. (Her words in season 6.) And all of that just seems like it was for nothing now.
I admit that there have been points in various relationships where I was miserable with the person I was with but you don't run around,smoke weed,get drunk and screw around on your partner. You go home,you sit down and you talk to them. Past Miranda would've done that. She didn't seem unhappy was when she told Steve she loved him or whe Steve said,"Miranda you're the one." Yes,he cheated and that sucks but she dragged him through Hell for it She and Steve rebuilt the trust and a lot of good all that work did Steve. Miranda makes him sound like an f'n loser. Has she really looked at Che? Has she paid attention to some of the horrible crap that comes out of Che's mouth on that sh*t show podcast? Che is not a good person and just Miranda can ignore all of Che's less then stellar qualities is just showing how warped the writers have made her. Miranda talked in therapy about how much Steve's infedelity hurt her and yet she had no trouble inflicting that same pain on him. Wonder how she'll feel when Che brings it up o the podcast and someone who knows them,or Brady,or Brady's gf or Steve hear it.
Exactly!! They think that fans are stupid and will eat all the bullshit! Miranda was unhappy forever!! Come on! It’s not a story of Miranda, it’s story of Cynthia! And if she wants to tell he story she should make another movie about her life, not ruining SATC
I will never forget the episode where Samantha told the girls she had cancer. Miranda takes time from her wedding to say, no you are my people and we discuss it now. Now....we have trash. My mum is 61 and runs about like she is 21!!!! The diaphragm thing was funny. They way Samantha goes....and I just got my nails done
@Kari Stevens it's the health!!!!!
@Kari Stevens she is happily aging very well, embracing the grey in her hair
Good for her, I'm in my 50s and watching the writers treat these women as if they're in their 80s makes me cringe. Carrie's surgery, Steve's hearing aids... come on. And all of a sudden Miranda turning bi....I just can't with these people.
@@Nautinthislifetime That’s great! Similar to your mom, but I'm 76 years young, and I don't want to let my hair go gray because I know it would look awful and my stylist agrees with me! I do not want to look, nor act like I'm 21, I just want to contine being stylish and classy like I've always been.
The original series had so much heart in it. Samantha’s cancer was an amazing story. The new show is nothing like the old.
I could have lived my whole life without witnessing Miranda moaning like that...omg!!!!!!!!!! lool That whole interaction with Che lol dude..wtaf lol. How do you forget youre at SOMEONE ELSES HOME lol. Loud.. drinking when youre supposed to be HELPING.. smoking in someone elses home without even batting an eye lol ...is it me?... do people just act this was lol.
Its sucks this shows getting so many views .. just to see what bs they try next.
Oh no! This is the worst so far. Where do I start:
1. Che is a problem. If she was a male boss of Carries doing that to Miranda in her apt that would be an HR visit.
2. When Carrie says that light comment about opioids. And that there’s something to it wink wink… the Gall!there’s an opioid epidemic
3.the Rose thing: it’s so awful that the her school principal and teacher tells them that they take their lead from a 12 year old instead of their parents. Guys this is happening in real life and this is their attitude. Poor Harry when he says that this is the most humbling experience to be told by other adults about his own child. I say no! This is the most humiliating experience and a slap in the face to all parents.
4. I feel so bad for Steve right now that Miranda just hates them and what they are about.
On number 3-- You're 100% right. Children are encouraged to keep secrets from their parents now which is a clear safeguarding risk. In Scotland schools have been told to encourage children as young as 4 to change their 'gender.' Four years old. How this is happening at the same time around the world is pretty mind blowing to me and I don't understand how something so potentially harmful is being pushed.
Absolutely agree with this. This show is toxic to the core.
I agree. I also think it’s unfair to justify Miranda’s affair and alcoholism by saying she hates her life. Guess what? It’s no one else’s responsibility to make your life something you love. If she doesn’t communicate with Steve she is unhappy how is it going to get fixed? Also there are people for which alcoholism is a disease. It doesn’t magically get better because they are happy. People ruin happy lives because they can’t stop. And having sex at your friends house who you are there to help is really selfish. She is a terrible character.
Yep - agree with everything you just said.
And I recently watched a documentary about the opioid crisis and was baffled when they where bringing up the painkillers as something good when people get addicted to them. It’s like this shit show gets worse by the minutes passing
Honestly Im stunned they would promote having an affair. Regardless of the gender. I can understand Carrie having hip issues at a mid age. My friend was in her 40’s and got a hip replacement. Its the sex scene in the kitchen that really disgusted me. I don’t even want to get started on Charlotte and Rose. Thats a joke!
Original Carrie would have screamed, “stop!!!” And she wouldn’t have judged Miranda at all, not after the episode about judging Samantha. The fans should write the show by committee now.
@@subparcharacters totally agree with everything you said!
@@MicheleNichols2,she also stalked Natasha for a decent stretch before she got to give that apology. I remember Carrie saying she thought Sam would judge her and being the true and amazing friend she was Samantha just said,"That's ot my style." I mean I get Carrie being angry about the pot and Miranda and Che getting it on her kitchen but when did Carrie become such a prude?
@@giventoflyx,in fairness Miranda kissed Steve in the laundryroom,on Brady's first birthday,and dumped Robert not to long after that but yes,Steve did cheat and Miranda moved out taking Magda and Brady with her! She wound up in marriage counciling with Steve and discussed how much the cheating hurt her but clearly the alcohol made her forget how much it hurt because she didnt hesistate to screw around with Che and cheat on Steve!
It's Rock not Rose 😆😆😆 what a load of shit this programme is
the writers and the acting should get the worst possible actors and writing award. HBO you put out such excellent work how could you possibly allow this to go out into the world on the HBO platform?????
But watch it get like 30 emmys 😂
Yes, they should receive the golden raspberry award
As a 58 year old women who inherited knee issues (I think we all get knee issues at this age), I would not live in a walk-up brownstone with a very tall staircase to enter the building. Why would she leave her elevator building.
@piglet thank you. I’m finding that Pilates and working the IT band helps. I’ll try cycling more.
I am 57-years-old and watched SATC from the beginning and I cannot BELIEVE how bad this show is and how HORRIBLE they have made these characters 😢😫😭 I have since cancelled my HBO subscription since this is the only reason I joined and I am so disgusted by this series...and, no, I am 57 and I have not had a hip replacement, I don't have a drinking problem, and I have 4 kids and not one of them are a Ze, Zim whatever
Yeah, right there with you. I don't even think about my age. I still do everything I did on my 30s.
HBO is free. At least the limited version I have that has this show
@@Angela-ze1wx See if you can find the free version. It is worth it for some other shows. I think Gentleman Jack is on it. And Curb your Enthusiasm is hilarious.
Despite the bad opinions etc, I still enjoy And Just Like That. I will watch it to the end. I am already invested! I cringe a lot, but I am glued to it.
I have realized something here..and follow me on this....This ENTIRE thing is fueled by Cynthia Nixon....Look at the interviews given....The fact that she is a producer....The push for the "wokeness" of it all.....The push for her lesbian storyline...It screams Cynthia Nixon....and I also want to add that the SATC orginial story was a success because of Kim Cattrall...If she wasn't on the original series and movies, they wouldn't had been a success and that screams a real jealousy from SJP...The series was supposed to 'star' SJP and it turned out that KC was the breakout star....I don't think that had set well with SJP at all...
I think you're onto something. Miranda was definitely the "star" of this episode.
I agree
I get that they wanted to diversify this cast and update the current issues but they went ahead and made a huge mistake, basically putting down middle aged white women to bolster other ethnicities…creating another terrible stereotype.Golden Girls played older women (even though those actresses were not that old) giving us the fun and wisdom of getting older without put downs of other groups and without stereotypes.
I didn’t get the reasoning of why they felt it was necessary to discuss how many blacks would be present. Or the feeling of having to read about black authors, etc. In previous episodes, did they factor in how many gays would be present vs heterosexuals. No, because just like this, it was irrelevant. If they were your friend/guests, then they’re just that.
Honestly, having sex in the kitchen of your friend you are supposed to be helping after surgery is really selfish. Her character is awful.
Yes, remember how pissed Miranda was when she needed Carrie (she threw her back out), and Carrie sent Aidan. Miranda schooled Carrie hard on that one about being selfish
LMAO - I know this series too well for my own sanity 🤣
Just as selfish as Carrie staying home with Big to eat politically incorrect meat (veal) when she and Miranda was supposed to have lunch. Fuck ha.🤣
Well,it's not like Miranda could bring Che back to her house. It would be like,"Steve,Brady,this is Carrie non-binary boss Che. We're going to be in the bedroom doing shots,smoking weed and having sex so I can prove how woke I am now." It really makes me wonder about Che as well. I get it. Do what you want. Be who you are but who Che is,is someone who will screw an alcoholic married mom who's in absolute emotional limbo and who's actions,with Che,just made her life about 500 times worse.
The whole thing was disgusting.
@@dismissiveavoidant9860 So disgusting, as in I can't unsee that horrible, UN-sexy scene!!
Ok..this is snarky but what’s with Carrie’s hair? This has to be the least attractive style for the ever stylish character. Pulling her hair back in a tight bun makes her look ancient and horse faced.SJP needs wisps…and light around her longish face
In the hospital with the gray sweater and pearls and the hair, it was too much
I really think the budget doesn't allow for a stylist.
@@donjuan7358 you’re kidding of course..this show is all stylists and I’m betting SJP is Hands on. Wtf?
@@judyjeanson7742 What I mean is, one who knows what they are doing or has talent. They don't just look bad for SITC, they look bad for any show. I really don't understand some of the things I'm seeing. I know someone has the credit, but I really have seen shows where people have done their own make-up and hair and looked better. I don't understand.
@@donjuan7358 yep.Totally agree. It’s like the whole package of people, writers, stylists, etc., wanted to fast forward the lives of these people without a clue as to their previous selves, how they’d look, talk, evolve. Growing older turned into growing old and dumb, unfunny and completely out of touch.
I mean are you fucking kidding me? I actually wasn’t sure how they were going to make Miranda and Che get it on, but having Miranda slamming shots in Carries kitchen, like a teenager, whilst she’s supposed to be nursing her best friend. I actually felt sorry for Carrie, in bed, dazed and confused, in pain, vulnerable and woken to Miranda getting fubbed off by Che! Why so intense? Why not just kiss? Is Cynthia Nixon proud of this story? Lest we forget how she reacted in ‘twenty something girls’ because of the Jell-O shots and the beach party (This is fun. How long do we have to stay?) I always hated Miranda’s sarcastic, unfunny, one-liners, but in comparison to this mess, those are like the good old days!
She left her best friend to piss the bed, then thought it was funny and her excuse is, I’m not happy, I hate my life, whilst showing zero remorse for her husband or how humiliated she made her best friend.
I thought the last episode was as low as this show could get, but this is just beyond words.
If I was Carrie I would have fucked Miranda off, there and then. That was inexcusable.
This show has done Steve dirty. He was a good guy, who always treated Miranda well, she always treated him like a dog, she always thought she was better than him. He should have stayed with Debbie, she loved and respected him.
The Rose/Rock story is painfully boring. Every mum just accepts Roses new identity but Charlotte has to behave like she’s been living in an Amish community for 20 years and not New York.
Also, how could they have such a huge storyline and moment with Che and Miranda then move on three months in the same episode? So, is episode 6 going to start with Miranda and Steve being completely separated and we don’t get to see any immediate aftermath! What the fuck is this shit?
Oh, I almost forgot about the joking about opioid addiction (now I understand pain killer addiction!) Seriously, are we going there now? Apparently we all need a lesson in race relations, but mocking a serious health epidemic is cool!
So that’s Big dead, Steve dumped, now we just need Harry to be in stage 4 terminal bowel cancer and these hideous women can just go back to fucking a geriatric New York!
Genius comment.
@@giventoflyx Carrie didn’t know Miranda was naked, when she sent Aiden. There was an entire episode devoted to Carrie judging Samantha after catching her blowing the Mailman, yet they just brush this off. Miranda was meant to be supporting Carrie and instead got drunk with Che and let Che finger her in Carries kitchen, whilst Carrie was shouting for help, but Miranda didn’t even hear her, because she was being so loud when she came! You think Carrie sending her kind, strong boyfriend in her place because Carrie had a work commitment, to help with a back injury, is worse than what Miranda just did? Again, Carrie didn’t know Miranda was naked.
Hah. All three single again was my prediction at the outset. I was being tongue in cheek.
I never thought they’d actually go there.
Yeah I was horrified by the sex in the kitchen thing too. She was supposed to be there for her friend who had surgery. What a shitty thing to do. The scene wasn’t even remotely sexy! It was gross. You would think a woman who is married to a woman would want lesbian sex to be portrayed as sensual and sexy. Not like a porno.
Yep, it may be a forecast, the three of them all alone again.
I was glad that Carrie told Miranda off about the business in her kitchen -- and I'd argue that wasn't "fair payback" for Carrie sending Aidan to help Miranda on the original series, instead of going herself. Carrie didn't go because she had a meeting with her editor, and she did send Aidan to help. Miranda was drinking and getting off in the kitchen, and didn't provide Carrie any help at all. She even kept yanking at the sheet when Carrie yelled "stop, you're hurting me."
I just hope there's also a scene were Steve gets to tell Miranda off. Though given the lousy way this show is treating Steve -- turning him into a deaf, boring old coot -- I'm not hopeful. But seriously, there should be a moment where Steve confronts Miranda about her hypocrisy, and basically serves as the voice of so many fans ticked off about this crazy amnesia the series has developed.
"What," he should say on his and our behalf, "so all these years together were a lie? You didn't marry me just because we had Brady; you refused my first proposal, fell back in love with me over the first year of Brady's life, and then you, YOU proposed to me!
"When I had that one night stand, you screamed at me that I "broke us," moved out and put me through hell for a year. Then we went to therapy, reconfirmed our love and got back together. And now, now out of the blue, you decide you have to betray us and negate all our years together because you 'hate our marriage and you're trapped'?!?
"Have you lost your mind? Has the booze turned you into a completely different person? Because you're not acting like the Miranda I've known for 20 damn years."
I read those words whilst hearing Steve's voice in my mind. Perfectly written. I hope something akin to that outcome comes along.
If only.
This monologue is better than all the writing in the released episodes combined.
Perfectly written 😳
Aiden VOLUNTEERED to help Miranda, because he was a Prince. Steve was positive and also very kind. These women finally found good men and then didn't appreciate them!
when u think it'll can not get any worst and then u watch this episode and have a massive relieve that Kim refused to participate in this nightmare
Yep. She dodged a huge bullet.
Hurts my heart too that we don't have Samantha but also couldn't be more proud of Kim for staying away from this agenda pushing cash grab shit show! Massive respect 🥳
Samantha Jones is a Queen! She should be thrilled to not be involved in this absolute mess
Carries peeing in a Snapple bottle was just too much. I was thoroughly grossed out. Hip surgery, really? What's next, the Carrie wears depends episode? I mean, come on! Women in their fifties are have much more going on in their lives than the crap they are showing. It's ridiculous. I am in my early fifties and have nothing in common with them. I feel much younger than these ladies. Hell, the Golden Girls was way better than this trash of a show.
I do agree with their pathetic approach to women aging. But hip replacement is more common now - I do have friends in their 50s who have had it done. They could have actually treated this in a naturally funny way. What a disappointment.
It is so upsetting that this is how they came back - they should have just left it be, let us remember the series in all of its glory - instead they’re absolutely tarnishing it’s legacy.😭
im fine with Miranda being gay but the cheating on steve cause she is bored seems so false to me. i hope they dont give her this happy ending. i hope she loses everything and has to start over
Ten bucks says Miranda enters a fling with Che thinking “I understand what women need because I am one.” And, SURPRISE, Che dumps her for not being a good partner. To be rejected by a man is no big deal, but to be rejected by one of her own will destroy her. Hee, hee….
I’m in on that. I’m having Steve moving to Florida to open a bar and Brady going with him because Miranda is a poor mother who sets no boundaries for him. Let her hit skid row and have to hang out with the subway people. Because she never rode a subway, and Cynthia Nixons social justice warrior ass never had to mingle with the commoners.
@@bubblegammu Yeah, I did a rewrite of where I had her doing blowies for booze in the subway. Trying to bring the sex back into the city. Or just have an episode titled Push Miranda in front of the Train. Too harsh?
There is NO JOY in this show. These women seem so miserable in their lives. Really miserable. "It's like they've never been around people before." Lols. Totally. And I miss Samantha, so much...
This new SATC makes me want to stab my eyeballs out, but I can’t stop watching it cause I love the way it’s bringing people together hating it from all beliefs, walks of life, and political parties 🤣🤣🤷🏻♀️😬🥰💕
My mother is these ladies ages and she’s healthier than I could ever hope to be. It’s ridiculous.
I am these ladies age! Why i was so excited about this reboot. Seeing woman of a certain age still being out there! If she stopped wearing heels she might nor need hip surgery!
I’m 69 and I’m healthier than these women. Hint - the ageism is coming from inside the house.
For real! When the first movie ended, Samantha was 50 and fabulous. These ladies are now in their early 50s, so why are they 80?
My father is 30 years older than these ladies and is completely active
Che doesn’t seem to be too comfortable with herself as she’s always high.
Such a great point.
I can't stand her.
High, bringing large bottles of booze, for someone who is probably on pain killers, fingering someone in someone’s home. Just a disrespectful person, point blank. Plus after Miranda is now pretending that Steve , who has never pleasured her the entire relationship apparently, despite their love story, starting with a one night stand, Che had a smirk on their face, and was leaving like a loser, while Miranda was clinging to them. Seems like they are only interested in hookups and sexual conquests.
I personally would never disrespect someone by engaging in an affair with someone who is married with children. It doesn’t speak well of the person, and your relationship is starting off with pain, and lying.
I LOATHE Che.
@@AvecPoesie as do we all.
And who the hell brings tequila to a person who is recovering from surgery and is taking opioids??opioid???
Who the fuck does shots after something like that?
I never understood people who said "thanks for the recap so I don't have to watch the show." If you're not watching the show why do you care about the recap?
Now, I understand. You are saving me from watching the destruction of a show I enjoyed. And saving me an HBO subscription! Thanks!
Try to imagine 13 episodes of this insufferable pathetic excuse for a show! Word to HBO,do not renew this load of pants.
lol. They need to just rename it Load of Pants. And torture the hell out of Miranda and Carrie every episode. Just go full metal jacket on the humiliation. They digested this poop, so they can deal with the plumbing.
Miranda has apparently forgotten back in season 1 when she was met a lesbian and later kissed her and said "yes, no doubt straight" and the woman says "yes, you are”
And the mental gymnastics people in the”Miranda was always a lesbian” camp. “But lesbians are not attracted to every woman. “ or “She only loved Steve because he was the father of her child.”
Damn, at least make her bisexual. That would make it more bearable to me (especially with the scarcity of bisexual female characters who end up with women, which when that happens, people go all “she was gay/compulsory heterosexuality, etc”) which spills to people who go through this in real life.
Oh please,that scene with Miranda and Che 🤮 while Carrie needed help/company,whatever. That was the WORST!
Get well soon and please make a Patreon!
Being a nurse for 23 years, this show was so medically inaccurate in so many ways. It was so bad. This show is getting worse by the minute. It’s like a bad car wreck you can’t turn away from. So many cringe worthy moments. Remember when SATC had the best quotable lines? I still quote lines from it and I don’t even realize it. Not this dumpster fire. No witty lines. No smart writing.
Ty! I just kept thinking, why wouldn’t she have a catheter in? She just had hip surgery. Sigh, I dunno ..
“Am I peeing?” Oh did the drugs make you lose your hearing too?
Glad you are a medical professional because maybe you can answer the question of how they allowed pearl earrings and a necklace during/after surgery???
@@jodibrooklyn1033 exactly! I work in PreOp and Recovery and we don’t allow jewelry of any kind. And why is she wearing a cardigan too? They have her not using hip precautions for all of it and in Anthony’s van she has some kind of hip brace that we never see again. Hip replacement patients don’t use crutches. They are allowed to be weight bearing. They use a walker to keep them steady and prevent falls. No reason for crutches. It’s all so dumb.
Yes. And I had the whole 9 yards of treatment for breast cancer, and I remember the way Samantha’s treatment was covered.
i was kinda ok with many of the things people were upset about [ even though mr big dying felt wrong and also samantha not being in it was too ] but i had it with " just like that " when the che and miranda thing happened , this show now feels like just a way for the show writers to cover up or change the bad representation of lgbt people in OG sex and the city [ remmember the biphobic episode ? where 4 of the girls agreed that " youre either gay or straight , something in between leads to gay at the end " ] and i really dont think miranda was written as a closeted lesbian character in the 90s [ there is even an episode related to that where she kissed a girl and later said she's definitely not attracted to women ] , and mind you all this is coming from a gay guy , so i dont think im being homophobic
100%. Just awful. Awful. Just devastated they are doing this to Steve and Miranda as well. Rewatched the original show recently as well. Steve and Miranda have been through so much. Such a depressing message. That she’s basically got bored of Steve and her life.
@@samwilliams3353 I know. The love between Miranda & Steve was awesome! I can’t believe they’re taking that away from us
You’re not being homophobic, no one is. They messed up everything, Miranda truly never gave off the bi vibe and now this feels forced
Absolutely agree. This is writers betrayal. When the writer writes that the sky is blue then out of no where says “but wait, now the sky is green.” 😂 😂.
@@neerasinha-frazer2094 it’s awful. They were always meant to be together. How they always were as well - Steve was always comfortable and secure and that’s what she loved about him.
When they are having the snacks, the teenage nightmare, Steve is going deaf. That’s life isn’t it - how utterly depressing to show she deals with that by cheating instead of making a bit more of an effort. Steve was always the more relaxed one. He’s probably happy and content. I know he cheated on her in the one movie but thought they moved past that. Annoying to see them go backwards. A forced attempt to make at least one of the characters gay 🥱.
Steve and Miranda always ❤️
I mean honestly, after hearing that the Sex and the City guy did Emily in Paris it was like an eye opener for me. Same tropes, same wokeness same using minorities and foreigners as props as in this show. While I didn't think AJLT would be any good, I didn't think it would get that bad.
Here are some perfect examples of why there needs to be more cultural responsiveness training among white people. Let's start with the media and entertainment since they are so influential in our culture. People just need to relax and get to know people as "people."
Darren Starr developed SATC but he didn't write and direct the episodes - that was Michael Patrick King. I think he was actually the problem in terms of the original shows/movies representation. And I don't think he's learned from his past mistakes with AJLT because he brought in bad writers to create WOC characters to carry all the emotional labor and growth for Carrie and friends. Not sure why you're calling Emily in Paris 'woke' - that show is nothing like AJLT except it's structured in a similar way.
@@deborahhoffman7394 You mean the way we always did before all this woke nonsense and being told we're all racists?
The people watching didn't piss anyone off. It just shows the absence of creativity and talent coming out of Hollywood which IMO is across the board with most of what comes out.
COME ON!!! We've all suffered enough the past 2 years. This is honestly just makes everything worse for some reason. Disappointment is and understatement. Betrayed seems more like it. We grew up with this show and they do us dirty like this? I'll say it again; Someone give Che a Peleton please!
This comment! 💯
And a Nordic trak because Che is also from the nineties and I want to cover all bases.
I must say that I don't laugh at all while watching the show. I feel constant cringe and of course cannot look away from this disaster trainwreck. But I was more excited for this review than the episode itself. And I am not disappointed ;) I agree with you 💯%.
I actually watched the episode so that I could watch this recap and know what was being discussed.
Thank you for reminding me that Samantha was 55 at the end of the first movie. She looked so energetic, beautiful and glamorous..her age was never mentioned, it was a non issue!
Samantha would have NEVER not responded to Carrie's, "I miss you." Never!!!! I am so disgusted with how they are portraying my ppl. Samantha is MY ppl.🤣
Cynthia Nixon is Not my Miranda. Gosh, this hurt all the SATC legacy
I feel like they dumbed her down or something I used to like this character and now she’s terrible she acts like a fucking teenager.
I agree with you. This episode sucked worse than the others. So disappointed😔 I also miss Carrie’s voiceovers..,
And speaking of the minority props and virtue signaling, have yall noticed that Lily has virtually no storyline? So the one cast member that wasn't an "add on" and isn't white basically plays a stereotype: quiet, obedient, invisible, perfect at piano and it seems school as well. She is basically just supporting cast for Rose. She barely even has any lines! We don't get anything from her - love interest or interests at all! And she was our little miracle at the end of the series. Makes me sad. We don't even know about Rose until the first movie! It's just another example that they really haven't changed how they treat those that don't look like them. But at least in the series they didn't try to pretend and I loved them for it. Hopefully I end up eating my words and she gets some sort of storyline. Anyway, just my two cents. Keep the videos comin!
Woa.... GOOD POINT...
Good point. Also, it’s only natural for Lily to wonder about her real parents. Especially as a teen, has she ever felt out of place being a different race?
Yes!! Great point .
Yes! I would love to see Lily explore who she is and where she’s from. That would actually be a realistic non pandering opportunity
I was dying when she walked up the stairs with an umbrella as a cane. I knew you were probably cracking up too in disbelief!
Considering there was a giant hand rail...omg...such a joke
Imho Carrie would be too proud to use a cane in public..and because she "self diagnosed" herself she didn't think it was a big deal using the umbrella for balance...
They should have rebranded this show “50 Is The New 90”.
And just so stupid - usIng an umbrella instead of the bannister?
And is Snapple the new Peloton for bad product placement?
@J Ds both of your comments are so on point, the whole thing is just insulting by now
I’m 51 and don’t feel old, but watching this it’s starting to convince me that maybe I should start feeling geriatric and I’m an old lady. This show continues to bash 50 plus, so much for positivity eh!?
In the first draft of the script, Big died choking on a Snapple.
There is just nothing fun about this ‘new’ chapter. And every ‘crisis’ they have seems self imposed. Too much money and a lack of meaningful employment leads to this kinda life where you have to invent drama to have something to fill the days.
At least Samantha could have fun - living her life!
My goodness.
And another thing…I don’t get Miranda’s reaction to having sex with a woman for the first time. There was no “what have I done,” no regret for cheating on her husband. No shock even that she was seen by Carrie. Is being with a woman something she’d been thinking of? No background at all. It’s like we don’t even know these people anymore.
And Just Like That…..this is a train wreck. We are in a pandemic. Watching programs is for enjoyment. This is pure torture. Not sure but I think watching the news in the real world is better than And Just Like That Trash.
And, I loved the original series. Absolutely have watched it over and over. Carrie and Big….loved them….now, it’s not funny, not entertaining….it’s a tragedy.
I won't be able to watch Sex and the City ever again. They ruined it for me. 😓
As a fan of the original show, I knew I would be tuning in to the reboot just to be nosey (I think🤷🏾♀️). I do think that, unlike many other series, Sex in the City has had the uncommon opportunity to give the audience a full story of each character. We had six seasons and two (rather mediocre) films. I am of the belief that this reboot is just beating a horse that was cremated years ago. This show lacks the sophistication that we saw in the original. It does come off as desperate. I probably will continue to tune in because what else is there to watch on Thursday 😂.
Lololol beating a horse that was cremated years ago... that was gold. You have more wit than the writers of this show!
I’ll keep watching because it’s like watching a Mack truck lose its breaks going down a hill.
@@taina2622 thank you!!!!
Totally agree, well said!
The only 2 reasons I love this reboot...
1) Kim got to show how much of an independent queen she is!! 👑
2) I found your channel and get to watch hilarious recaps every ep from you and also juices scoop!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Are we not gonna talk about how there were TWO instances of Carrie being swooned by a hot guy like didn’t your husband die like a month ago? Not that she should still be moping around but it felt a little disrespectful and I never even liked big lol
Maybe now we know why she didn't call 911 while Big was dying-just ridiculous, the whole thing
Feel better. This was your best review yet. I loved..." who did we piss off to get this show?" You're right. It's only getting worse.
I'm 55 years old. I was excited for this continuation of these legacy characters. I cannot be more disappointed if I tried. I don't need to be beaten over the head about my age through these characters. If anything, I want to see how they celebrate fashion/lifestyle at this age -- not broken hips and peeing issues (Harry) and hearing loss (Steve) and 'granny gray hair' (Miranda.) Why don't we all get dentures and sit with blankets over our knees in 100 degree weather, yelling at kids to get off our lawns? We're a millisecond away from that. And, of course, the ENTIRE show is one big cringe-fest. It's such an incredible waste of time. (Great review, though! I enjoyed watching this and I do hope you feel better!!)
I'm 55 too and I lol with your comments lol
Miranda and Carrie look almost 20 years older than Charlotte. Granted she had stuff done, but still. Are they making them look old on purpose? God I miss Samantha so much. She was the only entertaining thing about this entire show.
They look older because they are so thin. If you have a little weight on you when you're older it makes you look younger. I know this first hand because I was too skinny in my 40s, and now with more weight on at 58 I look younger than I did back then.
What's ironic is that Kim Catrall is 10 years older than the three and yet she STILL looks better than them, even with all the work they had done. Bitter is ugly. KC made the smart choice not to sign on to this travesty. They all look miserable at having to do this; making us run to "Golden Girls" or "The Nanny" reruns for humor and life-affirming comedy. :)
They both aged in dog years. Cynthia has thin wrinkled skin and SJP is gaunt and a smoker which tends to be very aging.
Honestly, I would be less disappointed if Samantha and Stanford fell madly in love, had three biological children and five adopted and joined the Amish people. Irony off.
The issues that they are dealing with are not relative to the characters at all. Carrie lived a life that could have caused other issues easily. Hypertension,…hypothyroidism. Bunions from decades of high heels running around NYC….
Those sorts of things would be much more relative to her age instead of hip surgery like a 75-year-old Has to have…
I've known people in their 40s and 50s who needed hip surgery. It isn't unheard of. But still kind of an odd storyline for a very limited 10-series reboot -- just not very entertaining.
ItS a CoNgEnItAl BiRtH dEfEct that manifested at age 55? Bye. Bunions would have worked fine and we never would have complained!
I’m 55 and a traveling teacher. Teaching k-12 is not for the faint of heart - especially these days. The good thing about this show - I don’t feel so old now! And your re-caps are mint! Get better soon and Happy New Year! 🎆
Thank you so much! You are so interesting traveling teacher that’s so cool! Happy New Year ❤️
Godspeed and bless you Lone Star. Yours is the most noble profession.
Sure hope your throat doesn’t feel as bad as it sounds. Great commentary. Another thing that bothers me is that Che is smoking pot constantly. Why on earth would the Miranda we used to know be attracted to a pothead.
If they did have Samantha on the writers would have had her go into the nunnery and take a vow of chastity. Glad to not be watching this train wreck !!!
Omg thats too funny and probably true. Kim Cattrall is not about money and she is about creativity and telling good stories. Why she decided not to be apart of the show. N she is genuinely pissed off at SJP since after the 2nd movie. I think they did all have a professional friendship b4 that point. Apparently kim didn't want to do the movies either but she came back for them.
You are likely quite correct, OP 😆
The cross cutting between Miranda and Che and Carrie "relieving herself" was so on the nose that it was comical.
It was chaotic mess 😂
Carrie should have literally sh!1 the bed when seeing that.
That whole scene with Carrie should have been a voice over rather than watching her try to pee in her Snapple bottle. Yuck!
Great scene. Only thing missing was Che pegging Miranda. They make a sexy couple.
As someone who has had surgery and bladder issues it made me so mad
I just don’t understand why Carrie didn’t just scream “Miranda!” Or “Miranda I have to go to the bathroom!” 😳 Nope, instead she’d rather pee in a bottle?!😏 Aaand also witness the kitchen situation that she later complained about?!!!🤨 Make it make sense!!!😂
Agreed! Like if I saw my best friend not only having sex, but cheating blatantly on her husband, I’d be like WTF! Not only if I have to pee and she’s there to nurse you and she’s too busy having sex to notice, I’d be screaming my ass of saying get the fuck out if you’re not going to help me. Blech. This show sucks!
Me, too!! The whole time I was thinking, “Why are you not yelling out at them?!”
Watching that last episode I felt like a 5 year old watching Mommy and Daddy getting it in and couldn’t bare to keep my eyes on the screen 😬 cringe isn’t even the word. The episode was terrible 😞
4:04: so…Carrie needs hip surgery…and yet, she’s wearing shoes like THAT??!
4:34: The doctor is saying, “give up the 5-inch stilettos”
4:38: Carrie replies, “I would just as soon give up my husband. Oh, wait…”
(Wonder if the doctor even mentioned the shoes.)
8:29 Carrie reminds me Bunny the mother in low of Chalotte
Gotta love the fat-shaming at the end of the episode when Carrie passes on the conventionally unattractive physical therapist. I spent this entire episode yelling at the screen. And I felt vindicated by the AV Club review, which agrees with me that Carrie needed surgery because she spent her life in stilettos.
Thank you for pointing this out. I personally found the health insurance approved therapist cute!
I agree and I thought the reason for the hip was going to be heels! And it's some random birth defect. It couldn't be because of the age they keep mentioning or the shoes. It had to be some random out of the way thing. Make it make sense🙄
That is definitely still good ole Hollywood. Completely woke in acceptance of all genders and nationalities...unless you're fat or unattractive.
Miranda wears a wig and becomes a whole different human. Carrie is no longer the most perfectly written best friend on the planet. Charlotte is still Charlotte but has a broken face. And it's like they couldn't think of a good enough reason to come back unless they tackled each and every social issue on the the planet, simultaneously!
LOL! Good pt Kenley.👍
I agree with what everyone has said about Miranda, but I am just as disgusted by Che. Carrie is her employee! She is her boss. She was supposedly there to see how Carries doing. I could see how them being drunk and silly could lead to a kiss. How could you take it that far in someone else’s place. Miranda doesn’t have any regard that she’s Carrie’s boss either.
Well we see Miranda has zero respect look what she lets her son do his girlfriend runs around naked in front of her husband they fuck all over the house
These writers seem to have lost faith in their ability to write a good story. And, the only thing I take away from the Miranda /Shey storyline is more over glamorization of committing adultery. 🤮The entire first movie was about Steve cheating and whether Miranda could forgive him. Uhhh…remember that writers? And, as someone already pointed out, Miranda was already mistaken for a lesbian and , after trying a girl on girl kiss, definitively stated she was heterosexual. Guess she really did loose her ability to act and can only play a gay character now. Dang! I hoped it would get better. Thanks for the update. Get well. I just got over it.
I am still nauseous from the Miranda sex scene in the kitchen. I just can’t anymore - I am literally watching it at this point just to see how much worse it can get
We all are! Car crash TV
In this Tragically Hip episode, they've aged the characters so much, I feel like they're ahead by a century. It's just fully, completely gone off the rails. There's no courage in the writing. If they're going to make aging jokes, I feel like they should have a limit on their fifty mission cap.
Done and done!
Hey! Very cool! You are making references to some Tragically Hip songs, aren't you? Love it!
That hat alone is tragic
Even the Golden girls did not have ageism like this.As a matter fact that show hardly had any. That is one complaint that I always had about sex and the city is that they always had Carrie’s friends like following her around like a puppy. Thank you hon for watching this so I don’t have to LOL
Golden Girls could teach these writers a LOT!!! Even though it’s from a different time, it’s still fun, and the characters aren’t pathetic and self centred.
@@marieuzes I always loved the Golden Girls (I literally grew up with them, I'm 43 now); this show really had forward-thinking ideas, talked about difficult things, and showed women in their forties and fifties who led an active life with ups and downs, love and sex (and loss of love), and with great friendships. That's how you produce a show surrounding the themes of women who are no longer 20 or 30, but have a little bit more experience in life - without "being old".
@@marieuzes Yes... bring on Betty White to whip these Gucci Gaggle Gals into shape about life!
Girl, this show sounds absolutely AWFUL! Why are they making them seem like they’re 75 years old instead of 55? People in their mid 50s are NOT elderly. They need to just remove this show from the air completely!
Seriously, they really are being made to seem like 95! Trust me…
@@susanpharr6809 Yes! Such a shame. The original show was phenomenal.
I personally think this episode was better than the previous ones - Carrie in the final scene in that nice dress and heel and charlotte without the puff sleeves in this episode. I think it will be uphill
I did enjoy this episode much more. Love the sparkly heels and dress at the end. Love seeing her in her own comfy home. The light color lavender sheets, her being unnoticed when she needed help to the bathroom. I found it awkward with Charlottes friend Anthony at lunch with them- I like Anthony’s character even more since SITC. He’s really a good friend, love him telling Charlotte to let Rose grow.
It was, but not by much.
Yes, Charlotte looked really good when she was helping Carrie in the bathroom. And this episode was more enjoyable than the others. This is the first one I'd actually watch again.
@@MicheleNichols2 yes & a throwback scene to make us feel a spec of the original show bc AJLT is not it by a long shot..
They threw us crumbs with that final scene
This whole mess went to hell as soon as they made Samantha and Smith break up. WHY? they were a very cute couple and they complemented each other, as soon as that happened I knew everything after was going to be unbearable
I agree, Nicole. To end it with Smith because he worked late on Valentine's Day was over the top COLD. Kim Catrall stayed in character and made it believable, but who would dismiss him, after he showed her unconditional love? Remember how Smith waited for her to come down from Richard's hotel room? He was beautiful to the core. Who knows...maybe Kim didn't like that story line either, but she was a pro! I think she could see the wrong direction when she read some scripts.
I watched this episode just thinking about your review and the comments. Adding to all the good points everybody is making, Carrie can pay out of pocket for the hot physical therapist, but not for a nurse to take care of her at home, instead of dragging her friends there? I am so done with the show
Miranda’s facial expressions when she’s “having fun” with Che! 😂😐😶
I don't like Che's character and im not fond of any of the new characters or storylines. I don't like the original characters either. Horrible show n was a money grab. Movies weren't great either but still not as horrible. The original series is watchable n a good entertaining show. This show blows my mind in how bad they are at telling stories and integrating colored characters into the cast. Forced gay storylines but not natural. N how they don't know how to interact with anyone. This show was the perfect platform to integrate all these new concepts n in new york of all places... how can they eff up this bad?! New york is the most diverse place in the world.
Yeah it was not sexy at all.
@@emma2370 It really wasn’t 😂
@@MicheleNichols2 agree. They were both enjoyable but they had a different vibe compared to the show. I don't know what they were trying to do with the reboot. I think they failed in what they trying to do and butchered their characters along the way.
I don’t know these characters anymore..
The original show had a few weaknesses. I’m not talking about what they are trying to correct for now. That’s just ridiculous. I’m talking about weaknesses relative to the world they created originally. But, while they may have been slightly annoying, it was a fun, sexy fantasy.
It was all downhill from there. The first movie was decent, I think, other than Samantha’s character, which I thought was badly written and just plain annoying.
The second movie was terrible.
AJLT is an embarrassment. I don’t need to outline why. You’ve all said it many times over, eloquently.
What they managed to do here is dismantle and destroy everything that was good about the original in an effort to make it palatable to some fantasy millennial population.
If they wanted to add a little more diversity to the show there would’ve been great ways to have done it. Think about how Miranda got into her relationship with Blair Underwood‘s character. She was with him because she was attracted to him and enjoyed his company. It was done as a matter of course. He wasn’t a prop-which most of the new characters in AJLT are.
The lead females are out of touch. With many things. But that’s what the characters are.
If the producers and writers wanted to branch them out, this was definitely not the way to do it. You can have characters grow without turning them into ridiculous dolts.
The stereotypes in the show are just beyond the pale. There is absolutely no subtlety here.
I’m not crazy about the way they wrote Samantha off, but what I really don’t like is how they wrote Stanford off. That was really terrible.
I’m wondering how many more boxes they plan on checking off before the series ends.
The writers and producers also need to do a little research on women of that age. It is absolutely offensive how they are portrayed.
I am 60. I’m sad that this, of all shows, is helping to promote these ridiculous stereotypes.
Now I'm just thinking yum Blair Underwood!
@@tinawelch5524 Right? Love him!!!
This was Cynthia- not Miranda. Miranda would’ve never let Luisa pretty much LIVE there. The only time I saw Miranda was when she called out Brady for smoking weed. I am not a fan of Miranda being switching sides. I loved her character of a feminist before it was a thing. I would’ve been happy to see another lgbtq character but not change Miranda’s character. The only thing I could see is an Elizabeth Gilbert “eat pray love” story.
All I keep thinking about is in season one when Miranda pretends to be gay to go to her bosses house and brings a woman, who she kisses and they both decided nope, she is definitely not a lesbian…
Yep. I don’t know why they decided to pretend like that never happened.
@@emma2370 The writers are pretending most of what happened with Miranda never happened LOL
One of the many cringy things in this show is Miranda's wig. They spent a lot of time on the wardrobe but put no effort for that wig
That’s a wig?!?!
It's a bad wig, and it looks like they clap it on her head the moment before the director says, "Rolling." I don't understand why Cynthia Nixon didn't just dye her own hair for the couple of months they were filming (but maybe it would have been too damaging to her hair). It's so confusing, why they don't have a great wig (probably several) fitted and styled to her and make it look natural.
Truth
@@wearealloneexceptforthatgu7848 👍👍yes, I wanted to make these points but since English is not my first language it was difficult for me to elaborate
I can't believe I fell for it this time when you said this episode was fantastic, actually got my hopes up a little. But when you did a 180 and said it was trash, I burst out laughing so hard. 😂😂😂
I made my fiancé watch the latest ep with me, so that he could see what I meant when I said AJLT was an abomination.
These were among his most memorable comments, that had me cackling on the couch:
“What the hell am I watching?! My ancestors, my spirit guides, the universe is angry at me for watching this!”
He was completely flabbergasted at the forced wokeness, and the extreme ageing to characters only in their 50s.
He also asked, what happened to the sex/relationships? “It’s all bad facelifts, alcoholism and hip replacements!“
We closed the episode with: “I am damaged from watching this”
Couldn’t have put it better, darling! 😂👌🏻
I laughed from start to finish of this comment 🤣 this is so funny and absolutely fantastic he is very much a keeper haha thank you for this
I was laughing so hard at your hubby's comments my cat was giving me the stink-eye.
When you were speaking about the scene with Che and Miranda in the kitchen, I thought about the SATC storyline with Steve cheating on Miranda. She punished Steve for a year because his one time infidelity broke up the family. But now “the shoe is on the other foot” and Miranda will break up the family. I guess the audience should be celebrating this because Miranda is “finding herself”.
So it took her till the age of 55 to realize she might be gay or something?
I can assure you NO ONE is celebrating anything related to this travesty.
