    The show missed the opportunity to discuss Che and Miranda's early relationship for what it actually was, an affair. If written correctly. it would detail how affairs aren't always about people being "bad" but a nuanced look at how we age in long term relationships. Its particularly odd since the premise of Miranda's affair with Che is identical to Steve's in the first movie. Its also odd that none of the other women demanded Miranda own up to the affair and speak to Steve. It was all together a terribly written storyline ad made me understand why Kim Catrall quite this hotmess show.

    I instantly hated the Che character. It was an empty shell with no depth and felt gross from the start. Che is a horrible person. The attempt to impress certain people with those fake woke crap is embarrassing and it fell flat. Our society is going thru some weird developmental stage and has waaaay overshot trying to please certain groups. That's not being inclusive.

    I think it’s normal that some people go through a life crisis when they are older. It’s normal that a marriage goes through trouble. But she definitely has psychological and emotional problems which don’t seem to be tackled in the show. She has always been kind of neurotic and desperate in a way. But now that she’s older, her neurosis has gone up by a 100.
    Also, we know she tends to get clingy sometimes when it came to men who had Che’s attitude. I’m rewatching the sex and the city series and it’s shown multiple times that she’s attracted to men who have a narcissistic or have an aggressive personality. Which does translate as to why she’s attracted to Che. Che has a difficult and aggressive personality.
    She wants to cling to Che so that she feels that her choices was correct

    Miranda fits the description of an addict to a tee. Where the thing she’s addicted to is another person and willing to give up their whole lives to satisfy the other. Che is a narcissist who needs the constant validation that Miranda offers them. But also the validation that everyone else gives them too.

    I’m currently rewatching SATC on Netflix, and I will say that Miranda having a midlife crisis with Steve and Brady might have been something believable and honest… if it had been done right. But Miranda Hobbs chasing someone so uncaring towards her and being so desperate to someone mistreating her is NOT Miranda. This doesn’t even feel like the same person!

    The things Che said about Miranda were insanely cruel. It’d be cruel to say to someone’s face let alone an audience for laughs. I couldn’t stand that Carrie stayed friendly with them after that.
    In fact Che as a whole is extremely selfish. It almost feels like they didn’t write them to be like a real human, they tried so hard to make them “confident” and “unapologetic” they accidentally made them an asshole.

    Everyone is on here saying they hate how AJLT ruined Miranda's character and I agree to an extent; but if you go back and rewatch the show, you can see she was always kind of like this. Sure, she wasn't whiny and thoughtless; but her self loathing, repressed queerness, and even her alcoholism was always there.
    When she goes on a date with the detective who was supposed to help Carrie find her stolen shoes, she becomes super insecure, gets wasted, and he ghosts her the next morning and leaves the phone number for her local AA chapter.
    Miranda also never really liked Steve. He cajoles her into a committed relationship when she made it clear from the beginning she wanted something casual; on their honeymoon she's miserable and uninterested in sex; she doesn't want to cuddle with him several times while they're dating, she doesn't want him to move in; the list goes on. She has a super unique style in the original series that often borders on being very masculine. She keeps her hair cut short. Her being gay is super believable. Miranda is to Steve as Big is to Carrie.
    Finally, Miranda has always been miserable, unhappy, and caustic. In the original series I think a) her youth b) the whimsical and lighthearted nature of the show and c) her friends, softened how intense Miranda's neuroses could be. It was usually played off as her having a strong personality, or just being sarcastic and having a strong back bone, but if you go back and pay attention it's really startling. In the episode where Miranda finally starts dating Steve, right after she offends him and he leaves the restaurant, she says "I knew it. Big's not coming. Men are shit." with tears in her eyes. Obviously I know she was crying because of her emotions about Steve, but Carrie (who is decidedly straight) would never have said something like that.
    In conclusion, I also hate the reboot. But it's realistic as hell. The choices we make in our youths can and do make us miserable if we are not true to ourselves. Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk.

      I’m also rewatching the series and look at it from an older pov. And I agree with you to a certain degree. Miranda had lots of times to explore her sexuality but she denied it. Just because she was more masculine does not mean it was obvious she was repressing herself. If that side was explored at least even once during the show then it would have been understandably.
      Agree with the fact that Miranda is kind of neurotic, clingy and likes aggressive personality. Which is what I see that attracts her to Che. Either way, my take on Miranda is that she desperately wants to be in a relationship but she gets bored immediately. She doesn’t realize that the way she behaves in heterosexual relationships is not the same way she should act in a bisexual relationship.
      And Steve, as much as I like him, they should have had them just be friendly parents and not have them be together. The writers had her settle

    Everyone made out like the hatred of Che Diaz was transphobia. Nope. They're just a terrible, narcissistic character. Thank God they're not coming back for another season (though I've already given up on the woke-performative, self congratulatory AJLT, which misses the SaTC niche entirely.) This show was never overtly about social justice issues, and it sucks all the enjoyment out of it when the viewer is constantly bludgeoned with condescending lessons about social justice. It feels like an extended lecture from the writers masquerading as a sitcom. The point of inclusivity is to just include people of color and LGBTQ characters in the pretty fashion and relationship foibles that SaTC was always about, not to make it all about their differences and how much they struggle to be included. Just include them and don't self congratulate yourself on including them, writers and producers. What a missed opportunity and wrong response to the criticism of SaTC's lack of inclusivity.

    Honestly I think it could have worked, if che wasn't so unlikeable and Miranda was treated as for what she is. A women in a midlife crises who changed her loving spouse that stuck by her for 20 years for a younger more exciting model. Like imagine a story about a dude who was an absent father, cheating on his loving wife of a similar age for the younger new chick that smoked weed with their son. And besides that If anyone of the originalcast should be fucking chicks, it is Samantha. Besides that if che is non binary it is still a hetero relationship. As a homo you need to fuck your own gender (Not Sex), however Miranda is still identifying as female while Che is not, therefore hetero. And I think this is true for a Lot of plotlines. Why not investigate what it meanseto loose your life Partner and building Up your life again? Like they did with Emily in the Gilmore Girls sequel? Or have Charlotte actually maturing further as her childern mature? Just like she matured, when she understood what beeing married is about, now she learns that actually beeing a parent is putting your kids before you. This could have been so good when they would have actually commited to the idea of them aging and confronting what new challenges come with aging, but they just didn't. That would also have been really progressive as we tend to just not get old women in media.

Miranda’s attitude was weird and fabricated for plots sake but this is my take on it. I just think that’s realistic for many ppl even woman like Miranda yk? And not suggesting or even justifying the cheating but these factors definitely play into it, but I can speak for ppl I grew around my mom had an old friend who didn’t realize she was a lesbian until she was like 43 maybe after dating men her whole life so u never know.
