I’m three episodes in, and I’m like “meh”
Not very funny and depressing…
Hate all the “box ticking “ it’s overtaking the show
Charlottes daughter can’t just be a tom boy ( which in itself would be funny ) she has to be -whatever they were saying? Transgender?
3 min “comedy sketch” about being Bi….?
Charlotte and Stanford don’t like each other?
Big wanking ..( eew)
Steve just going “eh? What?”
Carrie totally ignoring Charlottes warning about Miranda’s drinking?
Miranda’s Prof saying she was a White Saviour when trying to point out to the guard he was being unreasonable?
Everyone mentioning their age every scene?
Why would Carrie be putting herself through the embarrassment of a vulgar podcast when she’s clearly retired writing and married to a millionaire?

I’m debating whether to just imagine them, all running home from the desert where my imagination left left after SATC2 …

Oh god. They've confirmed that season 2 will feature even MORE of Che

www.digitalspy.com/tv/ustv/a40214998/and-just-like-that-che-diaz-season-2/

It's slightly annoying that they are blaming the audience for hating the character, rather than looking at their own writing to work out why Che was so universally disliked

Lord how insufferable this American liberal preaching is! I couldn’t give a flying fuck about the non-binary aspect of this character, in fact, I welcome the idea of non-binary (if not the attention seeking bullshit aspect of it) over the rigid categorisation of gender politics. But the character stinks! They’re not funny, obnoxious in the extreme with the endless vape blowing and showboating, an accessory to adultery and has a total lack of boundaries. Yet MPK assumes I’m quaking in my boots at the notion of Che wanting to be addressed as ‘they’. Joke.

That's how I feel.

Compare Carries friend, who had a well rounded personality and was LIKEABLE and widely praised to Che, who had nothing to offer other than being non-binary. What were their likes/dislikes/problems/successes? There was absolutely nothing to round the character out.

Any hatred was 100% the result of shitty writing and poor character development

DasAlteLeid · 08/06/2022 16:38

@thebellagio

Ché:

likes: blowing acrid smoke in peoples’ faces in lifts, shagging married women in their employee’s kitchen

dislikes: being funny

😅

Che was also incredibly smug.

Twonewcats · 08/06/2022 21:17

"I want to show the dimension of Che that people didn't see, for whatever reason, because they were blinded, out of fear or terror. I want to show more of Che rather than less of Che. Like, really."

Blinded out of fear or terror. Ffs.

THIS attitude is what makes so many people "anti-woke" - the suggestion that if someone is disliked, it's automatically assumed/decided that it must be because of their gender or sexualty etc, and because of fear and intolerance; as opposed to the person just an unlikeable arse. The person who said this is blinded to that possibility

Southeastdweller · 08/06/2022 21:25

I doubt I'll bother with the next season. With more of the dreaded Che, it's just going to be more woke box-ticking.

EachandEveryone · 20/08/2022 15:18

Oh this might be interesting www.justjared.com/2022/08/19/john-corbett-to-reprise-role-as-aidan-in-and-just-like-that-season-2/?fbclid=IwAR3_OqHy-i5qN3rEpnI9mNY_GWHvLZsBkP7jqkoeZerKwnJrMPUwJ6QsKVQ

btw did anyone watch the documentary that was supposed to be shown alongside AJLT? I can’t ever remember it been on but I watched it on my BA flight. It was very good and I can’t beleive I’ve never seen it. Great interviews and lovely wardrobe fittings. Such a lot went into making it that it made the show even more disappointing really. I do look forward to the next season though 😀

CosmopolitanPlease · 20/08/2022 15:26

Ooh what was the documentary called? I like the sound of that

5thHelena · 20/08/2022 15:27

Aidan is back!! How exciting!!

SteveHarringtonsChestHair · 20/08/2022 15:40

Was Big always planned to die or was that rewritten as a result of the allegations against Chris Noth?

SteveHarringtonsChestHair · 20/08/2022 15:41

Always preferred Aidan but he was too good for Carrie and he has his 3 boys now so hope he doesn’t end up with Carrie!

Was Big always planned to die or was that rewritten as a result of the allegations against Chris Noth?

The episode aired just before the allegations were made public, so I think it was always the intention. Noth was busy filming other shows at the time. There was a scene cut from the final episode where she met up with Big in a dream.

I don't think there was any need to kill the character off, it was hardly believable that Big and Carrie were going to have a fairytale ending given how dysfunctional their relationship had always been. Would have been more realistic to show the marriage failing, or at least allude to the fact it had failed.

EachandEveryone · 20/08/2022 16:46

I dont know how we can find it

VaulterTech · 22/08/2022 23:26

Urgh. I loathe Aidan.

Bindayagain · 23/08/2022 08:22

On a tangent, I've just read that the Golden Girls characters at the start of the show were the same age as Carrie etc in this reboot. They both looked and seemed so much older!

Bindayagain · 23/08/2022 08:23

...though just as obsessed with dating, come to think of it

EachandEveryone · 21/01/2023 22:39

Im looking more forward to it than the last one.

Netaporter · 22/01/2023 07:14

And Aiden is baaaaaaack! 🥰

vjg13 · 22/01/2023 08:50

When is it on please? Smile

Blindsandcurtains · 22/01/2023 09:40

It’s just being filmed at the moment.

And Just Like That..is anyone actually enjoy it?
ChatSamosa · 22/01/2023 12:19

Always been a bigger fan of Aiden than Big. Carrie doesn't deserve him.

Ridemeginger · 22/01/2023 12:26

I was hoping we'd seen the last of Che and the horrible new incarnation of Miranda (who used to be my favourite) as they went off to LA.

Any news about the Sharon Stone as Samantha rumour?

Aiden and his thin, disapproving mouth. Shudder.

I will hate watch with enthusiasm!

LuckyStarz · 22/01/2023 12:57

Aiden and his thin, disapproving mouth. Shudder.
Best description EVER!

CoolShoeshine · 22/01/2023 18:19

Is that Aiden on the photo? I can’t tell!
