Popular Post thesupremediva1 July 27, 2023 Popular Post Share July 27, 2023 The hug was very sweet. Enjoyed more karma coming back to Miranda with her awful date. Glad Char finally realized she’s a pushover. Maybe she can curb her two entitled, ungrateful monsters. Getting back to work would be great for her. I hope she sends Lily’s little friend her ER and ambulance bills. Aidan… if you don’t want to go back in the apartment, you probably don’t want to go back to Carrie, either. You were never really on the same page. And if you are now, great… but I can’t imagine a widow and divorcée deciding to waste time on round 3 of a relationship that ran its course over two decades ago. 32 1 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/140474-s02e07-february-14th/#findComment-8088146

I thought Miranda's lurking outside the bookstore was creepy and if it had a been a man doing it, there'd be no question. Do bookstores generally go all out for Valentine's Day? Can't say I've ever seen one do so. Maybe a single display for Valentine's Week but not the whole month. Just not interested in the Wexley family dramas. Can't believe they couldn't dig up someone else from Carrie's past with whom she only had a couple of dates with to revive for a relationship.

Popular Post SeanBug July 27, 2023 Popular Post Share July 27, 2023 They took one step forward the last couple episodes and now five steps back. FFS Miranda, stop trying to date for a minute. You go from one hot mess to another. You're going to the home of a person you spoke to for five minutes on the street?? Charlotte is back to her annoying self. Instagram for your dog? Who looks like every other white bull dog I see and there is nothing special about him at all. And it didn't dawn on you that brownies would have pot in them? Charlotte could not have consumed enough THC to get that high, but of course she exaggerates everything to the nth degree. She's 56 and acts like she's 16. If Aidan is such a baby that he can't walk into a completely renovated apartment without reliving stuff that happened years ago, maybe he's not really that into you, Carrie. I don't even recognize her old place, other than the desk in front of the window. I don't like the Wexleys at all. Other than the husband, but only because I love Christopher Jackson. I guess I don't get the whole "put everything about my life on IG" thing. I thank God we didn't have smart phones and social media when I was younger and all the crazy stuff I did was out there for the world. A little mystery never hurt anyone, kids. 25 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/140474-s02e07-february-14th/#findComment-8088228

I've said before it's lazy writing. They just aren't imaginative enough to come up with a better story for Carrie. I totally felt Seema when she was complaining about the spa making their services all about couples on Valentine's Day. But as someone who loves a good massage I would have kept the appointment and pretended to be a couple. Charlotte's girls are the worst. Lily telling her mother to get out of her own apartment? She would have been sent to her room and her friends would have been told GET OUT if she was my kid.. But high Charlotte was funny. And Harry loves her so much. I thought this episode was better than previous ones but the women are off in their own stories and don't spend enough time together. 10 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/140474-s02e07-february-14th/#findComment-8088238

I know this is totally different but when I had chemo - (10 years ago, so far so good...) I would watch Arrested Development during my infusions, and now I cannot watch it - it literally makes me nauseous. Even just seeing the title. there was also a cleaning agent they used at the hospital that they sometimes use at my work and I almost throw up whenever I smell it. Where Aidan did put so much into the apartment and had this vision of making it their home, I can totally see why he could not return there. That being said it really would have been a stronger ending if he just walked away after that speech.

Hanahope July 27, 2023 Share July 27, 2023 the nearly empty restaurant on Valentine's Day was a bit jarring and definitely doesn't speak well for its food (and clearly its waitstaff didn't give a crap about Carrie). right now, i don't see the chemistry anymore between Aiden and Carrie. Miranda's date sure went from glam to spam (too bad, I love Miriam Shor). Agreed that why does she have to get out there and date asap? why not wait a bit and figure yourself out, especially after two pretty big break ups. Nya had the right idea, imo. take some time for yourself before throwing yourself back out into the dating scene. Yup, Charlotte is the quintessential helicopter parent, having to be involved and overinvolved in everything of her kids. no wonder Rock said nope to modeling. no way would my kids ever get away with kicking me out of the house, even for one night. the pot brownies were funny, but a bit surprised it hit charlotte so hard. hopefully charlotte can find herself again with the job. Is LWT desk in her closet or bedroom? i thought i saw shoe shelves right next to it, with her computer on what looked like a vanity table/desk. funny that the 'boundaries' the girlfriend didn't have related to LWT's closet, hah. Laughed at the massage bit. I agree that Valentines day gets a little overwhelming with everywhere making a big deal out of it. i was never that much into it, give a small box of chocolate, that's good enough for me. 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/140474-s02e07-february-14th/#findComment-8088512

I was about to ask the same question. Also, you'd think she would know the name of the restaurant instead of using the address. It was definitely an awkward setup that was unnecessary. Having dinner with an ex you haven't seen in 10 years is nerve-wracking enough without going to the wrong restaurant. Wardrobe could've put John Corbett in a better coat, though. The coat he had on was too tight and he looked stiff. Charlotte may have overdone it, but I didn't blame her for being pissed about their appointment being 45 minutes behind schedule. It also didn't help that the receptionist was blase about it since there were other appointments ahead of them. That place was disorganized AF. 10 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/140474-s02e07-february-14th/#findComment-8088578

Made zero sense. 39 minutes ago, Surrealist said: I also didn't understand the big deal about Seema and Carrie sharing a room. I don't think she would've minded sharing. I feel like it was more of a stand against how unattached people are treated like second class citizens on Valentine's Day so she was making a point. Any other day, my guess is that arrangement would've been fine with Seema. 10 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/140474-s02e07-february-14th/#findComment-8088600

I don’t think they did actually. When she said that the maître d’ was like “eh” and made a dismissive hand wave, leading her to a table for two. Obviously they weren’t fully booked. I mean I fully hate-watch this show but they handled this moment well IMHO. 13 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/140474-s02e07-february-14th/#findComment-8088632

Who could they get that the fans would have an emotional reaction to? It would’ve been nice if they got David Duchovny back. I would have liked to have seen Justin Theroux's Vaughn Wysel, if only for the chance to give a small tribute to Valerie Harper, who was fantastic as his mother. 1 9 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/140474-s02e07-february-14th/#findComment-8088661
T Summer July 28, 2023 Author Share July 28, 2023 (edited) So Aiden stated he read Carrie's book. Here's something that keeps sticking in my craw. That Mourning period we watched Carrie go through in season 1 seemed hella long as a viewer. Not saying a year is long really, it's just the episodes with somber mourning Carrie seemed to go on and on. Why did she choose to write about being widowed and give talks about it and attempt to record the book when she's trying to get out from under the despair? Carrie was called a sex columnist but really she wrote about relationships. There's been a seismic change in the way people meet with online dating websites and all, what dating actually looks like in the 2020's and marriage (and birth) rates have dropped significantly Some stats reflect fewer married people than singles for the first time ever, others have it at 50/50 and the U.S. Census Bureau states 30% of USA households are comprised of one single person. It seems she could have immersed herself in writing about something other than Big's death right after he died. It could have even provided material for the show if she interviewed people for the book.

luna1122again July 28, 2023 Share July 28, 2023 Charlotte's Valentine dress was pretty. LTW looked like a vixen in her red, but yeah, I don't really care about the Wexleys. Aidan's jacket is stupid. I still love him tho. Once the jacket came off, I think he looked really good. I like that he read her book. It's dumb that he didn't remember that address. And his not wanting to go back in there should have been it, a bittersweet little reunion that ultimately they realized wasn't a reboot. But no. I don't care about Miranda's date, tho I love Miriam Shor. So we've had 2 members of the Younger cast show up so far. Can Sutton Foster or Debi Mazar be far behind? 6 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/140474-s02e07-february-14th/#findComment-8088719

Penman61 July 28, 2023 Share July 28, 2023 (edited) I never cared for either of Carrie's main loves, Big or Aidan. I thought both characters (and actors) were offputting and didn't have much charisma. Carrie was treated like shit by Big, and she treated Aidan like shit. That said, the Carrie/Aidan story in SATC is responsible for two of my few enduring memorable acting moments in that series: 1) Carrie repeating, pleading, to the point of some kind of mania, "You have to forgive me!" to Aidan; and 2) Aidan finally breaking and nearly screaming "You broke my heart!!" to Carrie. So I'm fine seeing them back together, I guess, and I do think their brief interactions so far are the least awful writing for AJLT. (That restaurant mishap actually happened to me. Lasted a full hour. Pre-cell-phones, for the record.) I 100% get Aidan not wanting to go back into That Apartment, at least at first, with no prep. I also find the actor/character less grating so far: He was such a low-grade macho bro in SATC, and he always seemed so self-satisfied but with no cause except maybe he was good with wood? Guess time chastens us all. Edited July 28, 2023 by Penman61 7 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/140474-s02e07-february-14th/#findComment-8088759

txhorns79 July 28, 2023 Share July 28, 2023 I enjoyed the episode. I loved Drew Barrymore basically falling apart on air when she saw Giuseppe in his outfit. I also liked Charlotte in the ambulance telling Harry to let Carrie dress her for her funeral. I also can't even imagine the parents who think it is okay to get high school kids a hotel suite for Valentine's Day. That's just nuts to me. The only note I would have is that they need to learn it is okay if not every cast member is given something to do in every episode. I was curious how Che has gone from making Netflix specials to impoverished to the point where they are jumping to grab an old job as a veterinary assistant, but it also felt unnecessary for the episode. 14 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/140474-s02e07-february-14th/#findComment-8088790

I can't figure out Che's career trajectory either. And while I like that they are an animal rescuer, of course, it really does feel like they're trying HARD to make us like them. Che rescues puppies, how can u not love them!? I still don't buy how easily Miranda seems to have gotten over Che. She was literally obsessed to the point of delirium, but now, she's just fine with it being over? 22 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/140474-s02e07-february-14th/#findComment-8088798
TiredMe July 28, 2023 Share July 28, 2023 I actually may have squealed at my first sight of Aidan. Can’t help it, always loved him and John Corbett. Although someone burn that jacket they had him in. there are too many characters on this show. They just don’t have enough meaningful time for us to care about the new folks. 9 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/140474-s02e07-february-14th/#findComment-8088802
