Romance And Just Like That: Sex and the City revival on HBO Max

Logan Marshall-Green was another attempt at making a new a Hollywood leading man.
 
I need the girls back soon! Season 2 feels like it ended so long ago.
 
This show just keeps getting worse with every episode it seems. Most recent one was....who is writing this show?
 
Did they kill Big off so Carrie can be with Aiden only for her to **** it up?
 
Im always amazed at the lengths they will go to for stupid comedic moments in this show.
 
I haven't been enjoying this show especially this season and I was hoping it would just end.

But seeing the announcement and finally knowing its ending in 2 weeks, makes me sad. I love Carrie, Samantha and Charlotte no matter what and they deserve better than this.

Then it hit me. Was course correcting a romcom TV show from the 90's not a good idea? Was doing a show without one of the leads and killing off a fan favorite love interest a bad thing? And Just Like That, I knew we were ****ed.
 
Yeah I couldn’t watch this when they started it. I tried, but the show just doesn’t work without Samantha. The core four are what made me devour every one of those silly episodes back then. I know SJP and Kim Cattrall hate each other and that sucks but it only works with both of them (and the other two, obviously). This was doomed from the start.
 
Maybe, someday, the elusive Sex and the City 3 movie will happen, 20 years after the first or second movie.

What I don't like about the continuation series, is the supporting characters are constantly getting solo scenes, which don't include the 3 leads and its taking me out of the show and I asked myself, why do I have to watch scenes without Carrie, Miranda and Charlotte and why do I need to care? Its feels like a different show and it is. Then when it comes to the storylines for Carrie, Miranda and Charlotte, its just not very good.
 
Put me down as another one that simply missed Samantha/Cattrall. She was the secret ingredient to the original show and it just wasn't the same without her.
You didn't like how she was replaced by a phone text thread? :o

The only detail I loved was Carrie still using a BlackBerry in 2021.
