funny how we are all different

I loved the gardener singing and carries dress

hated what Miranda was wearing

Debrathom · 13/07/2025 17:21

I found the last episode a bit cringey. Agree with others who have asked why Miranda is being portrayed as an idiot. She was so gushing and OTT at the party. By contrast, Joy is serene, elegant and understated. I can't see how she would be attracted to this version of Miranda. The old, sharp witted, slightly cynical Miranda of SATC fame, maybe. And I hated the silver jumpsuit. She looked like a deranged robot. 😂

Miranda was insufferable in the 2nd movie with her awful tour guide schtick in Abu Dhabi, and nothing like Miranda of old. The writers have continued to portray her as this unhinged, manic, gushing, credulous, socially gauche dimwit, rather than the very cool, clever witty and cynical Miranda we first met. Maybe being married to Steve sent her mad.

I sometimes imagine SJP and MPK sitting together thinking, who do we hate right now? … And writing them a shitty part. They completely destroyed Samantha in SATC2, and are doing the same with Miranda. Has Cynthia Nixon got too big for her boots??

Maybe she's been going on about playing a lady living in a 19th C mansion house in the Gilded Age, just like Carrie's novel, and getting up everyone's nose as a know it all?

Claymoreiron · 14/07/2025 13:01

Duncan is such a cliche ridden stereotype. Writers please do better.

Ok, I'm watching SATC and I'm up to series 4 and Carrie has just got email. How was she getting her columns from her laptop to the newspaper before? Printing them out and taking them over to the office?

Yes probably. Or fax?or floppy disc? 😂

Carrie is beyond annoying and spoilt.

Miranda is a shadow of her former self.
I find Charlotte very ditzy, was she always that bad??
The English writer, how bloody insulting is the stereotype.
That brat son of Aidan's needs a good kick.
Carrie writing Big out of her history, you got fairly rich out of him though!!

The cat is about the nicest thing in the series.

I saw an interview with SJP and apparently one of her contract terms is that she keeps all the outfits from any show/movie she's ever done. She said she has quite the archive. I bet you have!

Not sure whether I posted this in this or on the previous thread, but SJP and Matthew Broderick have 3 Manhattan townhouses. Adjoining houses for each of them, and one that houses all of these clothes from the shows.

No wonder they have been married so long..They don't have to live with each other!

Living the dream, as far as I'm concerned! 😂

HollyhockDays · 15/07/2025 17:58

I’m purely hate watching now. None of the new characters work IMHO. The gardener isn’t handsome. I don’t care about the estate agency woman - how has she suddenly got no money?? The English mutton eating writer is a cliche.

The accompanying podcast is quite the listen!! They seem to think they are producing a heartbreaking work of staggering genius!!

My friends Dad was an editor on a national newspaper. You sent by telex/fax or you phoned in the copy.

Holy shit!!!

Also what a fantastic & astute clause to have in your contract!

Like a Woody Allen & Mia Farrow agreement!

If I was ever mega mega rich I would definitely want this policy, I think Helena B C & Tim Burton had this set up too

Delatron · 15/07/2025 18:37

I would LOVE to live in a separate house to my DH! Next door would be fine..

Lottapianos · 15/07/2025 18:53

'I would LOVE to live in a separate house to my DH! Next door would be fine..'

Oh god, me too. Would be a dream

Newgirls · 15/07/2025 19:37

I feel the need to defend the writers! I love it 😂 I love the writer guy being mr perfect cliche and even already lives in the house. Big had a cigar, this one has a pipe - fine by me. The friends all seem about right for women in their 50s with crazy money and ok Miranda has changed but haven’t we all?! It’s fun and bonkers. Would like Steve to pop in.

greengreyblue · 15/07/2025 20:57

@Newgirls I love it too despite the criticism.
I would like a separate bedroom but not house. I used to think separate bedrooms meant there was no love/ sex but it makes perfect sense.

Lottapianos · 15/07/2025 21:00

'I used to think separate bedrooms meant there was no love/ sex but it makes perfect sense.'

We've done separate bedrooms for the past few years and it's brilliant. Lots of lovely sleep, no snoring or duvet stealing, my own space. We go to bed together and read for a while, then he goes to the lovely spare bed and I stay out. Can't recommend enough

We're all loving it in our own ways, @Newgirls , even if we are love-hating it. I have plenty of moans about how they all behaved in SATC, and many of the silly storylines, but it's still my favourite show.
