  • Hi everyone! Today, we are breaking down the first episode of the third Sex and the City season, ‘Where there’s smoke’ aka the Staten Island episode. In this video, we are talking about what actually inspired Michael Patrick King to write that fireman competition on the Staten Island scene. We are expressing our love for drunk Charlotte, sedated Miranda, and the iconic 'I lost my Jimmy Choo shoe' scene. And we are wondering whether Bill Kelley, the politician Carrie dates and Roger Sterling from Mad Men are the same person. Enjoy xx

    Season 3 is also my favourite season and this is probably my fav ep. too, it's so light hearted and fun. No drama no big responsibilities, just the girls having fun in their single life. I have seen this ep. so many times but I never had noticed Miranda dancing like a robot and it is hilarious 🤣🤣🤣 Thank you for pointing it out!

    I've been watching SATC since I was 11 ( I am now 30) and omg been rewatching it so often lately I had to stop myself before I memorize every line and every outfit and everything, but man oh man these videos you make are sooo good and poignant!!

I honestly love it and it’s one of my comfort flicks. To me it feels like a season of SATC and that it stays true to all the characters and storylines.
    However, I do not feel the same way with the second movie. For me, the SATC cannon ends at the end of the first movie.
    Anyways, keep up the good work! ✨

    Seasons 2-4 is the peak of the series. And season 3 is the best season. The humor got sharper (but not as cringe as it would later seasons). There was a bit more serialized drama and tension (but it wasn’t as sentimental and cheesy as it would get later). This also feels like the season where their friendships were the most tight and honest. The characters were feeling more fleshed out (but also not as aggravating as they would sometimes become). When I think of the SATC they hooked me and was worthy of becoming a pop culture phenomenon, I often think of this season. And yes, this is one of the show’s few best episodes.

    Although at the time of the series there were people that were apolitical. However, Carrie being a political is just like Carrie. She only cares about herself, She doesn't care about any issues that affect anybody other than Carrie.
    And she wasn't interested in this man until he could give her a ride home (the following week).
    I'll admit, this is a really fun episode. It also highlights some of Carrie's worst qualities
