Late to this… persevered through it but god, it’s awful. Miranda is sooo annoying. All the woke stuff is just so trite.

I am kind of interested in Carrie’s storyline so will watch to the end but I’m not sure why!

And what's with Miranda's squeaky voice..?!

Assignedtoworryyourmother · 22/06/2023 21:59

Why does Miranda insist on being naked or parts thereof so often?
Just realised Seema's bloke is from Emily in Paris...
Didn't more characters have grey hair in S1?
The conversations just don't flow like they did in SATC. It's all too forced and trying to shoehorn in too much information and PCness on each scene.
I so wanted to love this, I'm going to persevere through this season too but it's like eating a meal you aren't enjoying and finishing it anyway. A waste of calories and you feel a bit crap afterwards.

Whenwillglorioussummercome · 22/06/2023 22:01

Is it about to appear on Now? I couldn’t watch live so hopefully now it’s finished broadcasting it’ll pop up?

I don’t know why I am this interested as I am firmly in hate watch territory.

ArseMenagerie · 22/06/2023 22:07

It’s appalling.
Id put it alongside SATC 2 movie for pure shite

ArseMenagerie · 22/06/2023 22:08

Should say I watched both eps but WHY
I felt sullied afterwards 🤣

Lentilweaver · 22/06/2023 22:12

Hatewatched S 1 but only 20 minutes into S 2 and I don't think I can stand it. DH is watching uncritically though, so I can't escape...

They are all so pathetic. Especially what they have done to Miranda.
I so despise Che.

Lentilweaver · 22/06/2023 22:16

Still inredulous that Miranda left lovely Steve for self-absorbed Che.

stayingcool · 22/06/2023 22:20

Miranda with a strap on. That was a serious low. Very sad to see her character reduced to this...

Beaverbridge · 22/06/2023 22:20

So bad, both eps. Disappointed.

tribpot · 22/06/2023 22:21

I feel there is a future dissertation in 'shit bird accessories: their symbolism and meaning in the turmoil of Carrie Bradshaw's life'.

I decided to watch the first ep of Kim Cattrall's new show first as an act of solidarity. KC seemed very muted, but I am hoping this is because her character has lost her old fire and will, through the annoyingly sassy antics of her staff, get it back as the series goes on. I don't think either show is going to be troubling the award season.

AJLT did bring me one gift - hating Miranda more than Che. Whilst Che was pretty annoying, Miranda was off the scale. And WTF was with Miranda's full frontal? Why would we need to see that? If I were Che, I'd be sending Miranda back to New York.

The Lily dress storyline made no sense, you'd just get Harry's firm to deal with it. And Lily's Sad Song About All Her Privilege suggests she needs a firm kick up the arse and to be sent to do some volunteer work somewhere.

What on earth is going on with Nya? Can they really not think of anything better for her to do? LTW seems to be getting the most interesting storylines, but even then it comes across like 'racism storyline written by a rich white guy'.

I see no-one even thought to go with the 'vaginal deodorant is a feminist issue' angle.

He was also Tony from Prada in SATC.. but they seem to have glossed over that!

burnoutbabe · 22/06/2023 22:25

I watched the 8am version from sky.

I sort of enjoyed it. Harry seems thinner. Glad no Steve being pathetic.

It's better than nothing!

Whatsthestorymorningglory95 · 22/06/2023 22:26

I am dying to watch! Still not on now tv!

Lottapianos · 22/06/2023 22:30

I watched the first 2 episodes on Now TV at midday today!

Whatsthestorymorningglory95 · 22/06/2023 22:32

It’s only showing season 1 when I search. So annoying!

GellerYeller · 22/06/2023 22:38

Why didn’t Miranda try ringing her own phone from surfer dude’s phone while she was waiting to be collected?
Why haven’t she and Carrie realised they’re reenacting the whole ‘Carrie and The Russian in Paris’ scenario in reverse?
Why wasn’t Anthony more comedically incensed at his in and out of the Met debacle?
Why didn’t they just rent Lily a keyboard?
I know- plot development-but still. Sloppy.

Sarahtm35 · 22/06/2023 22:41

I was a massive satc fan but could only stomach 1 episode of this new woke show.

mynumber · 22/06/2023 23:25

I've just watched the first episode.
On a positive note I loved the red dress and head piece walking through the streets.
Would have liked a longer scene for Carrie's dress. Nice to see it again!

Whiskeypowers · 22/06/2023 23:39

It’s just a pile of drivel
I remember buying the satc dvds and sitting up watching them with a cocktail and cigarettes

the characters from that series are irreconcilable with these creatures

Ridemeginger · 22/06/2023 23:40

It's appalling. I didn't think it could get worse than season 1, but it has, it really, really has.

I want them all to climb on a Peloton and die quickly.

And why is clearing seaweed off a beach environmentally friendly?

Still not there for me either.

NeedToThinkOfOne · 23/06/2023 00:04

Why wasn’t Anthony more comedically incensed at his in and out of the Met debacle?

Anthony dumped by Carrie for her NBF was so wrong. It was set three weeks on from where we left it last season, yet all the friendships are deep and established. Stand-alone stories for Che and others, original friendship legacy is cast aside. Meantime, Miranda was some sort of pseudo Samantha, with a superfluous scene in a pod which had no purpose but to enable the actress to be naked on screen? Then a strap on scene which was just ick, more than dick.

At least they paid homage to Carrie 1.0 when she sat at the desk on her laptop to write the advert.

I feel the same as I did when I watched the second movie at the cinema 😬😞

GellerYeller · 23/06/2023 00:22

@NeedToThinkOfOne I agree with everything you said, totally. It’s all very disappointing.

stayingcool · 23/06/2023 00:26

I thought it couldn't get any worse than "Laurence of my Labia" ( SATC movie 2) but the strap on really jumped the shark today

Agreed, it would have been nice to see more about all the dresses, and given they were all having dresses designed for them, see some of the 'behind the scenes' of the couture fashion world.
