And just like that…
Has anyone been watching this series? I loved Sex And The City and was so looking forward to watching this. Personally, I’ve found it hard to get through each episode. To me the characters are nothing like the original show. Wish I could have enjoyed it more. Last episode next week, not sure if there is a Season 2.

Platinum5 mths agoThe documentary on this was actually really interesting. A lot of people working on the new series had worked on the original one and the movies. So much original clothing and accessories from the original series was used in the new series. Even original furniture from Carrie’s original apartment was used. I feel the script and some of the characters have let this new series down unfortunately.

Platinum5 mths agoOnce the original series finished I let it go. I made the mistake of watching one of the follow-up movies & was hugely disappointed so I don’t follow the series any more.

It covers everything from teenagers blooming, death, and also Miranda going through what she is going through – wondering how that will end …I will watch last episode and make a call

Founding MemberPlatinum5 mths, 1 w ago@Mumofbeauty Friends is amazing. I watched when it originally aired. The only show my older teen brother, Mother and I would watch together. We even went as far as not answering the phone when Friends was on. I am rewatching it on Netflix. I have probably watched it twice all the way through before. I love these episodes are still relevant in today’s society.

@Perthchick you must have some great memories watching friends. Sorry to hear about your brother’s passing. I have some great memories watching this show with my late best friend. We would always watch reruns together.

Founding MemberPlatinum5 mths ago@Mumofbeauty I didn’t read before publishing. My brother is still alive. It was meant to say older brother. I am sorry to hear about the passing of your bestie. May you keep those beautiful memories of them.

Founding MemberPlatinum5 mths, 1 w agoI thought the movies were unnecessary, at least more than one. Now with this series, it just feels like we’ll never let this finish in peace and most times the best shows in history knew when to end. I feel like a lot of the character development from the original show has been completely obliterated in this new series. For example, they did such injustice to Steve and Miranda, although I enjoyed the way they portrayed Steve in the latest episode.
Anyway, I like some parts of this show but it is largely imperfect. I like that we get to continue with their story and see them age, but the rest is hard to watch.
Although this is an analogy with a book, I liken this to the character Atticus Finch in To Kill a Mockingbird. A character who has been revered by many over the years but went through a complete character assassination in the sequel, that probably was never intended to be published by the author after her death for good reason. Now that original legacy and goodwill in that character is forever tainted by the publication of the sequel. If you have not read it, never read it.
