Anyone wanna join in with the pre-screening goss and hype?

Me first… SJP has posted her run through nameplate on insta. But so has this actor - a rumoured love interest for Miranda? What do we think?

Spoilers ahead

Couldn't agree more that the phone sex stuff was utter cringe. WHY did we have to be subjected to it?! No more Aidan PLEASE - I can't cope

The park hat was horrendous but every other outfit was fabulous. Lisa Todd Wexley probably the winner. Her presentation outfit and dress at Herbert's dinner were both 😍

So glad that Seema dumped that timewaster and his hideous little neck scarves. NO

Some extremely funny and v knowing lines - my favourite was 'i have a crisis - MY DOGWALKER HAS TRUST ISSUES!' 🤣

Wasn't Lisa Todd Wexley pregnant at the very end of the last series?

Loved how Carrie had to run for about half an hour to get from the top of the house to check the back door, coz the house is so massive! 😁

God it's such dreck but I do enjoy it, and it seriously delivers on the fashion front

Scorchio84 · 30/05/2025 14:29

Spoilers Ahead!

Oh my god she was pregnant!! I totally forgot.. I'm re-watching them all now while my son is with his dad & before the other half comes over, Che wasn't so bad in the first series but my god that whole arc went off a cliff in the second

The phone sex was beyond the beyonds, I was hiding behind a cushion! The clothes are back with a bang but yeah the Holly Hobbie WTAF? Although Carrie always had a few "choice" choices over the years

I'm really hoping it keeps it up plus it's a longer series, I think 12 episodes?

Carrie's fucking gaff my word 😍😍Also with you @Netaporter in the shoes department, I rarely get a chance to wear them all anymore but they're never going anywhere!

Netaporter · 30/05/2025 14:53

LTW lost the baby in the last season having just got her head around having it 😭

Ah! Absolutely no memory of that. Thanks 👍

Scorchio84 · 30/05/2025 15:56

Jaysus neither do I @Lottapianos I'm still on a rewatch of season 1 so...

Thanks @Netaporter

foxyfour · 30/05/2025 17:27

Just watching now. SJP's dress and over floaty thing was stunning the opening scene.

I was just about to press post and we've arrived in the park with her eating ice cream with some monstrosity on her head!

Lottapianos · 30/05/2025 17:33

@foxyfour, stick with it! The outfits in general are stunning. That hat was a rare shocker 🤯

Scorchio84 · 30/05/2025 17:39

But @foxyfour it's always been ever thus.. Carrie has had some clangers over the years not just AJLT in the OG series too & then the rest is just 😍😍

ETA too much wine!

Miranda has occasionally presented as queer in episodes from the past, so it was no surprise.

No she hasn't! She got set up on a blind date with a woman once, tried kissing her and said oop definitely straight.

FortyElephants · 30/05/2025 17:43

westisbest1982 · 29/05/2025 08:51

In early episodes, there was some queer coding in terms of how she dressed. She has also occasionally fought to overturn power imbalances (I think at work). She also has a same sex experience when she was growing up, a kiss I think.

Edited

Queer coded 😆 and what the fuck? Overturning sexism at work is queer now? How dismissive and offensive. Feminism isn't a 'queer' thing!

She really didn't, it was so she'd fit in & hopefully make a partner in her firm.. Charlotte did too in that episode with the "Power Lesbians" until she didn't

Scorchio84 · 30/05/2025 17:46

@westisbest1982 seriously to quote Trey "stop"

CowTown · 30/05/2025 17:48

It was a very 90s look—I wouldn’t give it too much thought.

SPOILERS

I thought the episode was mostly enjoyable, but Charlotte’s dog story was tedious and unfunny. Has she had an interesting story since the beginning of AJLT?

I agree with the OP that the Mary and Miranda story felt very much in the vein of SATC, quirky and funny, and Rosie O’Donnell nailed her character. I would love to see her do at least one more episode.

Scorchio84 · 30/05/2025 18:57

Lots of funny quips about Mary "holy ghosting" amongst others @westisbest1982

Netaporter · 30/05/2025 12:59

I’ll start…

Spoilers ahead

Obviously we need to discuss the absolute cringe fest that was the Aidan phone sex. Not even vaguely redeemed by the comedy horn. The charm with SATC was that Carrie was never really shown having sex and SJP has a strict nudity clause. For me, up there with the crying in the truck scene from S2. If they insist on JC being in it with his clothes on please no more of this or I’ll wish Che was back 😆 (kidding obviously)

Rosie O’Donnell was a brilliant casting choice and The Virgin Mary storyline SATC at its best. Even Miranda was back to her old self. Can’t wait for Dolly Wells to return as the new Miranda love interest. Miranda’s clothes are better too.

DH used to think I was quite ‘Carrie’ in my younger years plus I have a lot of shoes (basically I could shoe a millipede) but even he vetoed the ‘Holly Hobbie’ hat. Up there with the tricorn number from AJLT s1. WTAF 😂

Anthony at his finest. I love Guiseppe. Lily in love 🥰

LTW has the wardrobe to covet I think (ignoring the safari suit with the make up brushes 😆) Shame Herbert wasn’t actually singing live but I loved that story arc. I hope they give Harry less hammy story arcs but I still think the missed colonoscopy from past seasons is coming back as a story 😢

Charlotte wearing very Charlotte clothes 🥰

The apartment tho 😍😍😍 put away those boxes and tidy up woman! Or bring back Louise from St Louis (loved her)

A fab start.

spolier

So glad you said Holly Hobbie! I’d spat my tea out at 9 am!!!! Lol

You’re amateurs! 😂 I rewatched S2 so I was fully prepped. LTW is so beautiful!!! Loved Rosie O’Donnell . Totally forgot who she is and believed in the character.. The phone sex- ok I hadn’t had breakfast but just no! So am I right in thinking this is set within 6 months of the end of s2? So glad Ravi has been dumped. That accent just grated.

No, I listened to Every Outfit on this just the other day. A co-worker sets her up on a blind date with a woman at the company softball game, thinking she is gay, and Miranda is initially shocked but then gets invited to dinner at a senior partner’s house on the back of the assumption that she and the date are a couple. She is going to be a novelty lesbian basically for the partner’s wife to say she knows. So she plays along with it for the dinner but then confesses that she’s not really gay. On the way out of the dinner she gives her date a kiss to see whether there’s anything there, and it’s a peck basically, and then says ‘nope, definitely not gay’.

Did everyone assume from the S2 season finale that Aidan and Carrie would cut all contact for 5 years? I kind of assumed they would talk regularly, and that Aidan would not be visiting—that Carrie could visit him. No contact seems a bit extreme, no? What downfall are we being set up for here? I’ve always been Team Aidan.

I think I assumed they'd stay in touch but no visits, at least not yet. Aidan wouldn't want to be too far away if anything else happened with Wyatt and Carrie visiting would risk upsetting any progress they're making with him. But I assumed phone calls, messages, dinners if he's in NY for work etc.
The first ep felt so much tighter than the first two series did. Things seemed to happen for a reason and the pacing was much better. And Miranda feels like she's being written by people who actually saw SATC now.

greengreyblue · 30/05/2025 21:02

Yes Carrie said she’d come visit but he said no.

CowTown · 30/05/2025 21:05

I only got a subscription for this series. Will dump after that. It’s cancel antlytime.

CowTown · 30/05/2025 21:08

Waiting for 5 years with no contact (apart from the odd drunk dial on Aidan’s terms) is untenable. This will blow up, with Carrie all alone in that huge house.

CowTown · 30/05/2025 21:09

Do we know where Che and Nya are?

greengreyblue · 30/05/2025 21:09

Exactly. Ridiculous expectation. But then she let go of expectation at the last supper
