  • And Just Like That… I'm back with another season two episode review. In this week's video, I’m discussing my love for Enid Frick - the former editor-in-chief of Vogue, The Devil Wears Prada townhouse, Gloria Steinem's cameo, Steve's abs, Miranda not enjoying motherhood (according to the writers), Charlotte's gallery and I go on a little tangent about bad writing and the TikTokification of television.

      What makes me angry is that Miranda is doing stuff that she used to be critical about. They should at least make her think about it. She drop everything for a partner (like carrie with the russian) and also cheated (like steve, who she treated like crap for it).
      I'm not saying that cheating is okay, she was right for being angry but then do go and do it and say "oh but i'm discovering myself". F*ck her. She seems so pathetic and desperate. Worst character ever.

Like Charlotte being less accepting, miranda quite sceptical but overall okay with it and carrie trying to navigate the positive and negative. Like a comment on society as it used to be.

    I do enjoy watching AJLT, however I do agree with the shamble of a storyline. For this episode I’m glad you mentioned how the fight between Miranda and Che didn’t carry over and they all moved on like it was nothing.
    The scene with the three of them in bed was a mess, I understand what they wanted to do but it lacked the substance leading up to it. As Miranda’s partner I’m sure Che can understand why a three sum would be awkward with her ex, and she literally just dropped it on her with no warning. Her initiating sex was bad enough, then it got worst when the ex rolled over and was made even worst when they both put Miranda on the spot as if this comes with the territory of the new type of relationship that’s she’s still* exploring.
    I enjoyed Charlotte and Harry, I think they had the best and most informative storyline of this episode. Relating to real live issues people don’t talk about and they made it such a way that it’s ok to discuss these things with your partner and work alongside them getting through it. It just takes some time getting used to Charlotte being this relaxed with sex. One time she would cringe as the thought of cum now she’s offering for Harry to release on her breasts. Which is totally fine, it’s her husband and she is supposed to be this way with him. However as a viewer we didn’t see this. It was always missionary with the sheets over them lol

But I believe in tv drama they should have displayed it for us as the viewers to see. P

    I’m glad you mentioned Berger. He is another person that wasn’t afraid to call Carrie out and she needs more of that. She is the worst character in the series. She is selfish and unaware of everyone around her. Even when she tries to be empathetic, she makes it about her.

I totally agree on the tiktok bit because its so fast pacedI cant consume the content. i don't use tiktok so maybe that's why I hate the show and how fast it is. Also, one reason why I loved satc and thought it was such a timeless show was the cinematography, it was almost filmed like a noir, or a film. It wasn't filmed how tv shows back in those days were filmed with a live audience and laughing track. I don't know but the cinematography especially of NYC was why i loved the show so much and the cinematography on ajlt is so bad i cringe, couldn't even finish the episode.

    I kind of thing that the mundanity in extravagance is exactly the hook of the show. The original show also didn't really have a tonne going on, but you were sold by the characters and clothes. They do the same thing with AJLT, just with activities of older people (actually, this is why Pat Field said she didn't want to come back, she felt the characters didn't need to be 'old' in their plots and styling). Personally, I think your really right about there being not a good thread to tie all the stories together, and the plot holes of no-one caring about Miranda being jobless, but I also think it is missing the curiosity that these women used to have back in the 90s. They're not really exploring things and dating any more, so their lives feel emptier; but why is that not the plot? Why can't we see more of Carrie writing or Miranda questioning why she doesn't work nowadays? The end of the rainbow being not filled with gold would've been a wonderful way to both have the women try new things and a great perspective that we dont get to see on TV much. Idk, Im not a writer. Im enjoying it, but youre right that it had more potential

    The only reason I do not watch the show is because of Miranda & Cher (or Che or whatever) relationship. Not because Cher is a lesbians, but because Miranda never showed any desire for a woman. I remember in Season 1, it was 1 episode in which Miranda was introduced to a woman, and at the end of the show, she clearly said that she did not like women but men. And as an empowered woman in her 50’s, you DO NOT CHANGE YOUR SEXUAL ORIENTATION IN 24 hours! Even less you will leave your husband that you loved so much until the first season of AJLT for a woman that you met 1 day ago. It makes so upset that I prefer not to watch the show! I grew up as a woman watching SATC in my late 20s early 30’s and can’t just see my forever fav show to decline, horribly falling down, this way

I've watched that show during my 20s and had Miranda as my inspiration and now I'm compelled to skip her scenes. Whats was that threesome scene? It's almost criminal how that dude thought it would be appropriate to suddenly wake up and participate in his ex-spouse sex. The way that Che responded to Miranda like she was wrong for speaking her thoughts, I'm sorry but that's a toxic relationship. It's almost like she's obligated to say yes, as she said. I wish we would get rid off Che soon
