And just like that …
I think Im extremely onboard with the full trajectory of Carries arc this season?
Have I just been worn down by ten episodes chock-full of moments of complete nonsense?
I dont care; I love rom-coms, and I am open to any and all story-ending elevator makeouts.
Just to be clear, Im speaking specifically about Carries storyline the Miranda of it all remains absolutely wild.
Not that she wont carry her grief and heartbreak with her, but now she and we!
can see something on the other side of all the sadness.
Or, at least, smush faces in an elevator.
Yes, I know what youre thinking: What of Peter??
There was no surprise there.
They should at least stay friends, right?
I mean, dont let that head of hair out of your life, you know?
With that big step forward, Carrie walks right into the one-year anniversary of Bigs death.
If you had told me it had been ten years since he died, I wouldve believed you.
I cant even comment on this reaction.
I have no words.
I need smelling salts.
To most human beings, he was obviously talking about Bigs cremains.
He wants to know where his brothers final resting place is and suggests the family crypt.
Theres even available space for Carrie, so thats nice and not terrifying to think about.
So off she goes on her own to that bridge.
She dons a giant orange gown, and she says good-bye.
I know we joke a lot, but I was very moved!!
Sarah Jessica Parker is turning in some great dramatic work here.
With this trip to Paris, you could feel a chapter closing.
She survived the first year without the love of her life.
Carrie asks if they can talk, and Samantha texts, soon.
In Paris, she writes her again: Could they get a drink?
Samantha asks if tomorrow night is okay.
Carries response: FABULOUS.
Again, I was moved!
More change is in the air.
He has been watching her grow, he says, but, like, not in a creepy way.
In a way that a handsome person says it.
And this new podcast is calledSex and the City, guys!
The first episode goes well-ish.
And there it is, that surprise that Carrie had been waiting for.
Okay, fine, well talk about Miranda and Che Diaz!!!
I dont want to, but I care about you guys, okay?
Miranda is all hyped up because Che Diaz wants her to meet their family.
But this isnt a regular family meet and greet.
This is a surprise!
There are lots of phrases like Hollywood called, bitches!
Im a fucking narcissist, in case youre wondering what the vibe of this party is.
Not surprisingly, Miranda decides to go.
There is zero discussion with anyone about this.
She even gives up a prestigious human-rights internship to do it.
People need to stop backing off.
Carrie does it too, mostly because there is apparently no arguing with Miranda in love.
It doesnt fully work.
But mostly, the whole thing rings false because Mirandas changes and her choices havent felt well-earned.
Theres no empathy for anyone around her.
There is still little to no explanation as to why these two are so into each other.
Were told so much; we need to see it.
Theres so much to mine here that remains unmined.
She knows what they have is worth protecting.
Will it go as well as Cleveland?
Only time and a second season will tell.
This and That
Oh, Charlotte.
To watch Charlotte and Harry make a run at reason with and then bribe this kid is exhausting!!
Just go do this for your parents, c’mon, I am begging you.
Why are all the children on this show little shits?
Alas, Rock doesnt want any labels put on them about literally anything in their life.
And just like that … Charlottes a woman now.
She could not fathom a four-day trip with just Charlotte.
Okay, but if there is a season two, Rabbi Jen has to come back.
Rabbi Jen is great.
Look at Seema getting after it!
Of all the new characters, Nya seemed to have the most cohesive storyline this season.
Im rooting for both of those two to be happy, however that configuration may look.
Jackie throws a surprise wedding!
His suit is insane, but he is totally pulling it off.
Im adding him to the list of people we need more of if theres a season two.
