A lot of the recappers are shocked that Carrie is so accepting of Aiden hooking up with his ex-wife. But lots of exes have sex one-offs, especially when there is drama concerning ome of theor kids happening. And anyway, Carrie never thought their arrangement meant they couldn’r sleep with others.

The fact that she wasn’t outraged by Aiden’s (tiresome) confession indicates she’s increasingly fed up with his unrealistic, compulsive behavior and is comtemplating sleeping with Duncan. I mean we’ve known where this was going ever since Duncan returned to his apartment.

It appears she bought two sofas, yet for some reason, they were still wrapped in plastic.

I had to laugh when Carrie opened her medicine cabinet for the Tums. All of her products were drug store staples (Neutrogena, Pond's cold cream). I guess they want us to believe this bitch is still an everywoman at heart, despite owning a $10 million home.

It was surprising to see Seema at Chauncey's funeral. In three seasons, Seema and Lisa have only been in two or three group scenes together, and I'm not sure if they have even shared any dialogue. Yes, Charlotte and Lisa are good friends, but it was funny that Lisa had all her...acquaintances seated with the family.

It just shows you how poorly they have integrated Lisa with the other characters (other than Charlotte) and the series itself. And it doesn't help that her main story (this neverending PBS docu-series) is deathly boring.

On the positive side, this season has had some strong female guest stars (Rosie, Cheri Oteri, Jenifer Lewis), so I hope LuPone continues that streak next week.

I recently watched SATC2 and enjoyed it except the preposterous beginning. It wasn’t as bad as I remember. It was light and breezy.

by Anonymousreply 138July 9, 2025 4:03 PM

I have watched SATC2 dozens of times. There is something so irresistibly awful about it that I can’t NOT watch it if it’s on. I think I know every scene verbatim at this point. The absolute cringe of the Liza scene. The “Abu Dhabi Do” moment that makes you want to slap Miranda. And of course my testicles sucking up into my body cavity at the “I am Woman Hear Me Roar” karaoke.

The only genuinely funny scenes are the nanny’s tits in slow motion with all the men gawking at her.

Good times.

Listen, these actresses were presented with a deal. They could revive these characters for the easiest paycheck they’ve ever earned. But no one really believed in their bones that this would rise to the level of the original series.

And I can respect the decision to take that deal, especially if you are Cynthia or Kristen, And the former has worked a lot, but hasn’t always earned the big bucks and the latter doesn’t work at all.

The opening line was written after Carrie agreed to the five year bullshit. She didn't know what she got herself into. She's able to be more honest via fiction than writing about herself, as in her column. And she's upset Miranda can see that, as Miranda always can (like with Petrovsky in SATC.) I thought that was great and was hoping it would lead to fireworks between them where Mirabda tells her what a loser Auden is but Carrie really did not like knowing that conversation going that way and had to shut it down by being a complete bitch.

Charlotte mostly seems to shout this year.

LTW's husband is more interesting than she is. Harry really has nothing to do, so who knows what happens after the cancer.

Seema as the new Samantha just isn't working. Adam will dump her once the garden is done 9and it should have been done by the last episode).

[quote] LTW's husband is more interesting than she is.

This is true. In fact, the whole moronic thing (abandoned?) where she needs to track down Michelle Obama to be in her little documentary makes more sense if it's her husband who needs to rope Michelle into his campaign somehow, maybe at a major fundraiser. And it even works on a frau level, as loyal wife going above and beyond to land an influential woman for her man. A sort of frau feminism.

I wonder if Cynthia wants to leave the show, and they're laying the groundwork for her exit? I also wonder if Cynthia's politics have caused a rift between them? We saw with Kim Cattrall that SJP can give you the cold shoulder if she has a problem with you.

Miranda is always eating. In the original series too. And Nixon doesn’t eat nicely. She scraps the plate, then her teeth with her fork, and talk with her mouth full of food. Once you you look for it you will never not see it. I didn’t hear one line of dialogue in the kitchen scene. I was too focused on what Cynthia Nixon was doing to that innocent piece of cake.

I had to really suspend my disbelief that Seema wouldn't have immediately bolted from Lashes and Lattes as soon as she saw those the freaky nails. Seema being poor is the second most frustrating story this season. And it could have been plausible with one line of dialogue: "Fuck, if I weren't getting over a big loss on an investment..." Instead, we're supposed to believe one of NYC's top real estate brokers is broke.

Harry has a personal shopper. Why didn't he have her pick him out jeans a few episode back, instead of having a totally disinterested Carrie go with him?

Carrie's weird wording in her one-sided fight with Miranda was annoying. "Aiden and I are 20 years in." Kind of like how she said, "Since I'm 50" during the yogurt brawl.

I have to give this shit show props for three genuine funny moments: LTW on her son's karaoke: "Oh, God, I'm going to have to send apology notes." Charlotte's work friend: "I don't buy gifts for people who own in Manhattan." And Miranda telling Harry, "When the unthinkable happens, Charlotte will be devastated, but we'll be there for her!" and walking away.

Complains about her neighbor’s pipe smoke smell that wasn’t hers and tells her to shower in her own house? Oh hell no. He would have been kicked to the curb so fast his head would spin.

I thought Miranda already confessed her alcoholism to the Brit. Otherwise, the remaining plot lines were stupid. LTW's husband doesn't look bad, the whole Charlotte/Harry plot line seems to sputter and really, do we care about Seema at all , by this point. I certainly don't.

On SATC, Stanford had a beautiful house in the Hamptons. There was some obvious money there. Anthony was married to Stanford and he left him all his worldly goods. So, why does Anthony live in a shitty apartment?

Carrie is the only person living in NYC who constantly wears flowing dresses that drag on the ground so she has to constantly hold them up to make her way down the street. Who dresses like that on a day to day basis?

Charlotte couldn't get out of bed, yet there she was in the restaurant, standing up to kiss Carrie.

Then again, Cynthia is also playing Howdy Doody every week, so anything goes at this point!

What was the point of bringing Aidan back in the first place?

R535: It provided filler where everything else is silly little story arcs and peripheral characters.

Bobby Lee has some thoughts.

“ Number one, I don’t even know why they asked,” said Lee of his casting. “And I was super scared to do it. Because it wasn’t my brand, really. You know what I mean? But I did it. I walked through the fear.”

To walk through fear is to lead by example. He was brave and must be commended for that.

R537. I forgot Bobby Lee was on the show. Wasn't he part of Carrie's podcast which was dropped. Maybe that's why he's no longer on the show.

Kim Cattrall was right to drop this hot potato.

She is still a good actress but I fear even SHE would have started to stink on this.

It’s like everyone walks into a chamber of some kind where their good acting is removed and replaced by nonsensical choices!

by Anonymousreply 541July 25, 2025 2:27 PM

I thought the break up scenes (Carrie incrementally getting more annoyed and depressed by Aidan's awkward pettiness) were well written and staged. The moment she climbs into bed, thanking him for his understanding, and his snarky, passive aggressive huffing "you smell like smoke, go take a bath"... a line crossed, no going back, you break it you bought it.

The writing, so uneven, so TV sitcom, was good in these scenes, and SJP's acting was excellent, I though. She's an older woman now, and she has no patience. What was selfishness when she was younger now plays like strength, focus.

Bring back Jack Berger. Ron Livingston's wife is on the show as Aiden's ex so why not.

I agree on not bringing anyone else back. When in life does anyone really come back into your life multiple times?

Usually people from the past are best left there!

Patti blew any chance whatsoever of landing a plum role as Mrs. Fish's thin sister on The Gilded Age. Her acting is over the top, like she is playing for the rafters.

by Anonymousreply 555July 25, 2025 9:49 PM

I wholeheartedly agree with you, r542.

That was such an aggressive comment re: the smoking. It also highlighted for me how little Aiden had grown as a person since SATC and how much she had gained in emotional strength and decisiveness. I'm sure losing your spouse suddenly would accelerate that feeling of life is too short.

I miss that quality of writing that was intrinsic to SATC.

I also largely fast forward through all plot lines with the exception of Miranda and Carrie.

Lupone was a disaster, I'm so embarrassed for her.

If my partner spent an evening in a pipe smoke filled room and then crawled into bed I would also kick him out in a millisecond.

Agreed, R559. Frankly, I would never crawl into bed stinking of smoke. I always shower before bed.

It's about time this farkakte show had a decent episode. Maybe they need to keep them under 30 minutes from now on. That way they can't put all the bullshit subplots in, and nobody needed the deodorant subplot.

by Anonymousreply 561July 26, 2025 1:17 AM

I agree about a smokey partner in bed, but the way Aiden was a dick about it - he clearly just wanted to put up a wall and impose himself on Carrie, rather than just asking politely. I don't believe at all that it was just about the smoke.

I TOLD YOU BITCHES Aiden’s smoking fixation was a red flag going back to the original series.

Lo and behold, his control freak comments (about the smoke smell) were the last straw for Carrie.

I wonder if the writers meant for this to be a call back.

Seema has nothing in common with any of these ladies. After being declined for a small business loan, she somehow was able to use her savings to rent an amazing place and have a gay Londoner as her personal step and fetch assistant running for sushi on command. What commercial landlord would rent to Seema if the banks don't feel she is credit worthy? They do the same financial review and if a bank would say no, they would too. Maybe LTW can meet Michelle Obama and refer her to Seema to help her find a bachelorette pad in Tribeca. That's how unrealistic this show is.

R580 She didn't necessarily smell... her client caught a whiff of the waiter which made Seema self-conscious/unsure, giving that she had been running and worked up a swear.

And I am a mature, accomplished, well educated man who is posting on a social media platform about a TV character's body odor. Sheesh.

A small point, but there is no way that wealthy Park Avenue family would have those yeah Nutty Bars in their house. This is the same kind who talked about preferring the French toast at The Pierre a few episodes back. Kids if that ilk in 2025 do not know from Little Debbie, now do their parents buy it. If they were to eat junk, it would be high quality junk.

It probably still doesn't make financial sense, R576, but as Seema explained it, she got the office via the real estate equivalent of a "fire sale" - Like in the real world in many places post-Covid - she said something about "no one working in the office" and she picked up the space cheap via a lease or sublease. And she got the assistant "in the divorce" from her old partner. He said he had just moved from London. Of course it he wouldn't have to work for her and could just get a new job in London, but in the universe of the show, all I got from it was that it was someone who she previously worked with and he was available.
