Chai December 14, 2021 Share December 14, 2021 On 12/13/2021 at 11:56 AM, ifionlyknew said: In Candace Bushnell's recent novel "Is There Still Sex in the City" the lead character is a woman Carrie's age who suddenly finds herself single and it's about how her and her friends navigate their 50s. If the show wanted to have Carrie be single they should have whatever caused her to be single (widowhood or divorce) happen before the show started. This series is I think 8 (?) episodes. Not a lot of time to deal with Carrie's grief and hopefully have her able to move on. I will continue to watch but I don't have high hopes it will be enjoyable. I think MPK wants the show to be what he wants it to be. Not what the audience wants or even what would be a natural evolution of the characters. Yes. I agree! You know what this reminds me of? I loved the Bridget Jones Diary books, the first 2…. The third one when Mark is dead and she has two kids and never gets her happy years?! I said I don’t know how many curse words…. Threw the book in the trash and said I would rewrite my own ending. Bridget deserved (and we deserved to see) the happy years! Just like Carrie and Big. 7 Link to comment

jqdeco December 15, 2021 Share December 15, 2021 Samantha not being on the show could have so easily been handled better. Just say she had a job offer in London that she couldn't refuse. Once or twice have someone mention how they hardly hear from her because she is so busy and loving London. Easy. To bad the show chose to be petty and bring the actors personal lives into it. As others have mentioned, they didn't think about the audience. This reminds me of how Gilmore Girls was butchered when it was brought back for 4 episodes. 18 Link to comment

I give her a pass on having instantly known what someone's gender identity preference, you know, they, them, he or she...these days I just ask for a name, it is easier that way. Miranda could not judge by looking at someone and know what they referred to themselves as. The rambling about the professor's hair was another thing, she just could not stop trying to make it make sense, maybe we are supposed to blame it on the breakfast wine she had prior to class. If we were to blame the wine she certainly did not seem drunk let alone tipsy, I chalk it up to clumsy writing. 3 Link to comment

beagletime December 15, 2021 Share December 15, 2021 (edited) I'm not sure if I'll watch all the episodes. The writing seems so off. Samantha being gone is so easy to address. Samantha had an opportunity to take her business international. Was Carrie her only client? Why would Samantha be embarrassed to lose Carrie's account? Doesn't make any sense at all. I spent many years working at a University. Post graduate courses have older students changing careers, young students, professional students. All kinds of people. Miranda wouldn't be the only middle aged student in the class. And, yes, public masturbation is wrong. I've seen it in a public park (I got out of there) and once in a library (reported him to security). It was upsetting and felt like an assault.

Doesn't make any sense at all. I always got the impression that Carrie's "celebrity" was fairly minimal and niche...she was a writer, not an actress or model. And because she was a writer she had relationships that kept her in a certain circle. She also said to Berger that the papparazzi knew her primarily because she had been on the party circuit for so long. So her celebrity was not really what we think of from a true "fame" standpoint. And in all honesty, at 50, her name on the podcast circuit was probably kind of moot. I doubt the listeners to that podcast even knew who Carrie Bradshaw was? We already know that Carrie's lifestyle was particularly "enhanced" and didn't match reality for what she did, but that also means that on Samantha's client list, that somebody like Carrie, is not a make it or break it account. Honestly, she probably wouldn't even miss it. 11 Link to comment

qtpye December 16, 2021 Share December 16, 2021 Again, I feel like the stupid podcast (that was obviously written by people who do not know what a podcast is) was just another device to make Carrie look good in comparison. ”Look at how classy and fun Carrie is compared to these degenerates who masturbate in public.” It also might be a set up for the handsome man behind the glass to fall in love with Carrie. 3 Link to comment

She teaches at City College at night; She and Steve are considering being foster parents; -Charlotte became a fundraising legend for the children's hospital.

I also cringed at the fact that Carrie still calls him Big. Really? She's been married to him for what now? 20 years!?!? You would think she would say "John wants to go to the Hamptons this weekend" instead of "Big wants to go to the Hamptons this weekend". Super awkward the whole Miranda thing. Out of them all, I would have thought Charlotte would put her foot in her mouth instead of Miranda. David Eigenberg looks like he's just phoning Steve in. But who can blame him with so little he has to work with? Loved the fact that Rose isn't a fashionista like Charlotte. Exactly. My husband has a nick-name that I had called him for years, when we were just friends. Pretty much as soon as we got involved romantically, I switched to calling him by his actual first name. It was a hard habit to break, but I just thought it sounded silly for his girlfriend (fiance/wife) to be calling him by his nick-name regularly.

I've always thought SJP (and MPK) took any criticism of Carrie in SATC and the movies as the audience is just misunderstanding her. Like the audience was wrong for not finding her as adorable as the writers seemed to find her. So with this show they are having Carrie be the character everyone is supposed to have sympathy for and Miranda and Charlotte (and even Samantha offscreen) are going to do things that will make the audience think poorly of them. Totally agree about SJP, and about the show thinking that Carrie is so adorable, when she is actually super annoying and childish. Even still in her 50s. 6 Link to comment

I don't think I've ever had a favorite character, but no longer having Samantha in the mix, coupled with killing off Big and the tone deafness of their diversity efforts exacerbated the laundry list of grievances I have about class, racism, entitlement, feminism, politics, and so forth in this country. I don't want to watch a poorly made attempt to recapture what the series used to be. IMO, they really should have thrown in the towel after the first movie.

Instead of reading the man correctly and seeing their relationship for what it was, she did what she always did. Thought only about what she wanted.

I thought she was totally out of line when she forced a meeting with his mother at church. He told her that was something he and his mother did. And she couldn't accept that and showed up at the church. I would have been incredibly pissed off if I had been him and she'd been ejected from my life immediately. And that is just one example of her forcing herself on someone who hadn't invited her in. I liked Big because he was sophisticated, charming and easy on the eyes. Big liked her immensely and enjoyed her company. He told her he needed time, but she wasn't listening because as always it was ALL ABOUT CARRIE.

When he started pushing for a wedding date, she bolted. So, YMMV about Aiden being a saint and Big being a jerk.

I get that they didn't want to show the older folks having sex but Brady and his girlfriend were just a bit too much. Miranda was a Karen before they had a name for it. Calling the manager (my husband sent over all the liquor and if you could hurry and pour my drink), berating people in public, demanding to know what you are doing in the same space as her...own your shit. It would've been just as easy to laugh and apologize after mistaking the professor for a student. (2) Babbling about the braids is what we now call implicit bias. (3) Whatever Kristin Davis is doing to her lips...she needs to cut that shit out. I hate that I see Miranda having an affair with Carrie's boss a mile away.

Sure, there are trolls on Twitter with their sexist and ageist comments, but the majority of criticism and backlash is from viewers who loved the original series and justifiably aren't happy about Big's death, the pandering, and how OOC the three ladies are being. (and, yes, we're allowed to be upset that not only is there no Samantha, but how MPK chose to write her out). The core audience for this is rooted in nostalgia. There aren't going to be good feelings when you take large chunks of the show and characters we've loved for two decades and demolish it in service of this new one, maybe two, season revival series. I wish MPK and SJP stuck to the original plan which I believe was they were going to do a podcast dissecting each episode of the original series and telling behind the scenes stories, etc. (perhaps they'd even have actors on the show be special guests!) That would've been much better than what we're getting with this revival. I'd prefer Big alive and he and Carrie still together ("Me and You, Just Us Two"), Miranda and Steve going strong, as is the York-Goldenblatt family, and most importantly the true love story that is the friendship of the four ladies remaining solid as a rock. This would have brought me back as a viewer. On 12/13/2021 at 6:28 PM, RedHawk said: Once again, Carrie at 55 is still self-absorbed and blaming others. She's learned nothing.

Besides being a wealthy married mother...I am not seeing many similarities. Because white people can't possibly look at a beautiful, accomplished, intelligent, moneyed black woman as her own unique person. She has to be a "black" version of some white person.

First episode, they made Miranda seem like she’d never seen a black woman with braids before. Then, Carrie just watched Big die and kisses him instead of calling the Damn Ambulance?! Then, next episode is her saying ‘what do I do now?’ Miranda says they take the body and she replies “No, what do I do now?” Omg I didn’t think she could’ve gotten any more selfish and self-centered!! Can’t watch these people. Much like the Roseanne reboot-these are not the same people. Edited September 9, 2023 by Pi237 2 Link to comment
