I know the funeral is supposed to be sad, but what really made me cry was seeing Willie Garson sitting next to Carrie knowing he's really not with us. Breaks my freaking heart
Yeah, I didnt like the way he shyt on her back then and now that this scandalous issue has come out about him just recently, I REALLY DON'T LIKE HIM NOW!!!
This makes me extremely sad knowing that Willie Garson, knew he was fighting cancer in real life & didn't have much longer with us when they filmed this scene. SJP was the only one who knew he was so sick. You're at peace now, Willie & thank you for all the years of great acting even up until the end. We always will think of you😢💔
Oh God poor Willie Garson. Knowing his funeral in real life wasn't far off and acting in this scene. I can't even imagine how hard that must of been. RIP Willie. 💔
Carrie was upset, but she was way more upset when he stood her up at the wedding. And I mean they focused on that story for an entire movie. Carrie was so convincingly depressed, but this show just rushed everything and we barely delved into Carrie’s emotions. She will never see him again, that’s heart wrenching.
@@YRS51 I'm not going to bet on that. It's how it should be done, but I don't trust the writers direction anymore with any character. I've lost loves, family members in my arms and several friends and this isn't how I reacted to any of them, yes I was in shock due to some of the deaths but this just isn't realistic.
I think at the funeral the permanence of the situation hasn’t even scratched the surface. It feels like they are on a long trip or something. Grief comes in waves and stages. Or the writers suck. That option is definitely on the table.
It’s because the wedding situation he was alive and chose to do that to her. It’s betrayal. As far as his dying this was not something he chose to do to her. That’s why she was so upset being left at alter.
My husband soulmate of 24 years died 14 years ago. We later had a ceremony similar to this. My nephew made a gorgeous montage of my husband’s life. I still watch it from time to time. What a way to remember our loved ones. 14 years later I’m still a trainwreck. It is only grief that doesn’t die.
I know it's just a TV show but I did cry. I think the choice of song was so beautiful for the ceremony and the reflections of the pictures throughout his years made it more touching . I did think about Willie looking at the casket and the whole scene thinking about his own personal health issues and if that could have been something he had to realize what's was going to happen to him .
Big was such a big part of the story, his story with Carrie is what we spent years watching, yet I feel so disconnected from his funeral, is it just me??? Like what on the earth? It was so weird, I’m a highly emotional person, I cried during so many of the sex and the city episodes and movies, yet this I just couldn’t shed even a tear? It didn’t show any of their relationship or bond at this funeral, none of their photos, Carrie didn’t even make a speech? She wrote one for Miranda?? I can’t, big deserved a better send off, how unforgettable and unemotional
Yes I was thinking Willie was watching the video and thinking if his illness and that he will be the one being mourned soon .that it's real for him.....big said in set he didn't know Willie had cancer but you got yo be blind not to notice he doesn't look well. You kind of can see when someone close to you had a major illness like that they look skinny and gaunt you can see it in there eyes
@@marieclaire4935 Yeah but they hadnt seen him in awhile. The guy who played the black panther was the same, he did all of those movies including black panther while having prostate cancer and hosting SNL and didn't tell anyone.
@@marieclaire4935 Chadwick Boseman was similar. Nobody knew. Hindsight is a wonderful thing. To be honest though a lot of this cast look gaunt.. like, I would just presume they're losing weight for a role. I'm sure people thought the same about Chadwick. It's so sad but at least he got to do this show, I hope it gave him some peace. I know that may sound weird.
I think this funeral was more Carrie’s taste. Big woulda wanted an old, wood paneled cigar room… something solid and classic, not this minimalist Kim K style venue. Addendum: Funny considering with Big and Natasha’s NYT wedding announcement Carrie was all, “I don’t hear Big anywhere in that!”
Grief is displayed differently. Everyone one is judging Carrie. Obviously. She’s experiencing shock. She literally found him. There’s no right way to grieve.
Yep. As someone who lost someone dear to them only two months ago, it's very clear to me that a lot of people in the comments have yet to experience this kind of loss. People really expect you to be wailing and bursting into tears every two minutes and for many that is not the case.
Yes she found him. Then she just sat there and let him die without calling 911 or perform chest compressions. Even with Big's death it's all about her. SMH
When she looks at Willie, it's so sad, cause that look encloses all the time she talked, complained cried, laughed with him about her relationship with Big, is like both were mourning him with the same pain, since they were so close and Willie, knew all the things she went through with Big, is like they are saying....Wow..here we are again... and also feels like a goodbye look between SJP and Willie. RIP 🙏 🕊
She had known Big the longest as his secretary. She HAD been sitting at the front of the audience, as she should have been, but she was kicked out by two egotistical men
I can't help it but ALL I can think about watching this is how Williie Garson was feeling during this knowing sometime soon these ppl would be at HIS real funeral... My God that must have been truly horrible. for him..
As someone who has lost someone via a sudden heart attack and everything that goes with it, she’s acting very normal. You have to go into planning mode with the funeral and having to make sure everyone else is taken care of. And you don’t have a moment to think about the death. It’s only after that frenzy is complete that the quiet sets in. And that’s about when the shock begins to wear off and you begin to crumble. And that’s when you do what she’s doing with walking constantly so she doesn’t have to sit still and be with the feelings. Also as textbook as it comes. You essentially busy yourself to exhaustion so that when you finally allow yourself to crash, you can hopefully crash. I think they have portrayed it all incredibly well in the series. Including this latest episode where she freaks out about the broken glass he had touched a million times. You cling to any inch of what’s left of them. I think they have done a good job across the board with the series and what happens after your allegedly carefree 30s.
I agree with you, too, we cling to every shred of them, every single memory, I even kept my dad’s voice on the answering machine outgoing message, until one day it got deleted accidentally and I flipped out, panicked and went into depression over that. This funeral left me cold...This looks rushed and I can’t connect to most of this, I used to be so immersed in SATC and watching the relationship develop with Carrie, and now it’s so off base, (except yes the broken glass, yessss) it’s like lukewarm bath water. Blahhh.
I'm going through it right now but crashing is simply not an option for me. I have to ensure that my grieving process won't hamper my mental health. I have way too much ahead of me and on my plate. I ought to keep going even though I'll miss my mom.
I didn’t expect Big to die. Wow we went on that journey over 20 years ago when Carrie fell head over heels in love with him. I’m thankful we got to see them get married and happy. It’s sad he won’t be on the show any longer but death is part of life and I’m interested to see how Carrie moves forward without him. 😢😢
No, she lusted after him and his money, and he treated her like garbage the entire show. There's no way he'd suddenly change and marry her, unless he had a serious head injury. People almost never change and once you see that, you don't go back.
Dear God I know this is tv but I've been watching for years and they are real to me I am so sad that all this excitement about the new show wound up with me crying Big is gone and poor Stanford passed ,Samantha is missing ,I guess I had to vent ❣️
Gloria's reaction to Bigs death was the characters feelings, no one should tell her how to express those feelings. Che offering a hankie was a nice gesture. Steve's comforting Brady & Miranda is a genuine gestures. Carrie's character had been emotional now's not the time to have her be so reserved, if anything I wanted to see her truly grieve for John. Held back .
Another Todd Rundgren, emotional and a little haunting song, "I Saw the Light", was used in an episode of Six Feet Under when Nate came to the realization that his missing wife was dead, he was playing a cassette tape of the song she had in her car. 💔
I totally forgot big took Charlotte to the hospital to have rose when her water broke. I’m just realizing that. I was shocked but I had a feeling when I saw articles of them killing a major character off that it would be either Big or Steve.
Sarah and Willie looking at each other - acting out the scene, but realizing the reality to come. So very sad. Maybe why Sarah needed to look right away but Willie's glance continued, knowing why, and understanding.
I remember first watching satc in 2004 with my roommates in college freshman year. Man, that was a lifetime ago! Time really flies, and it feels like the end of an era.
I just found out that Willie died back in September. I had know idea! He was only 57 years old. So, so sad. He was such a great character and a great Actor. RIP Willie.
I feel disconnected to this scene. Im not sure why. It seems cold and odd. The essence of Big is stripped down to a white room, black clothes and Carrie in a strange hat. Its about her, her loss. Not his personality. Big had a sense of humor and lots of friends. I keep thinking about him singing in the italian restaurant. He liked colors and humor. I think he would have chosen Sinatra "I Did it My Way" or something along those lines instead of this strange song no one ever heard before. I can't tear up because its not Big.
It's not my favorite venue, either, but it's not that easy to think through everything right after a death. This is an art gallery in New York; she may have wanted to avoid a traditional funeral home setting or one of them had a connection to the place. Maybe they were expecting a larger crowd than the funeral home could accommodate? (Notice some people are standing without seats in the back.) And actually, the hat (fascinator) isn't strange; it's common in the UK and the kind of thing Carrie wears.
Well Big's place was always modern and minimalist. I think he would approve expect for the no flowers rule. He probably wanted a more up beat song at his funeral. I really expected her to play Moon River.
1) she didn't do CPR, 2) didn't call 911, 3) didn't give him nitro which was previously mentioned earlier in the episode. She wanted him to die or she's very stupid. But also both can be true.
Some people don't know how to administer CPR, as hard as that is to believe. Doing CPR would've messed her makeup up I guess. Doesn't make for good tv.
We spent so many years watching Big and Carrie's relationship build through the years, go through different phases, breakups, dramas, etc. Only for us to finally se them end up together and get married. We literally got the Big happy end we all wanted, only for them to kill Big off like nothing ever happened, even Carrie calling him "the Big mistake" just because she fell for Aidan again. All those years of seeing the girls go througu so much and develop into new, better persons, just for it to be all knocked down with one idiotic modern series. Sad!
Big was always leaving Carrie and when they’re finally together he dies . I know a lot of people don’t like carries character but damn she went thru a lot with him . She was so depressed when he stood up her at the wedding and then has to go thru grief all over after really losing him forever 😢
This scene reminds me of when I witnessed a woman dying from a heart attack while I was at the doctor’s office for a checkup. Her husband noticed that she wasn’t waking up when it was time for her checkup. My mom took me to the kids area, because she didn’t want me to feel traumatized by the whole incident (Also because I am autistic.) The woman’s death draws eerie parallels to Big’s unexpected passing, as they both had sudden heart attacks.
In honesty their relationship was childish and semi toxic for their age! Kept going back and forth, cheating on other people to be together, breaking up, coming back together…fighting not fighting…yea he was a prick to her at times
I commented this on another video and I'll comment it again here. That is the classiest funeral I've ever seen and want to copy that for my own funeral. (Too bad I don't have any home videos from childhood.)
Having lost my father this year due to covid19, damn this song and the whole scene makes me cry and think that life is just an instant in time. That song is just stuck in my head these days... 😪😪
I lost my longtime significant other to Covid last year. This was hard to watch; I wished I'd waited a few years to do so. I'm so sorry for your loss as well; take care of yourself.
As someone who lost her beloved grandmother back in late December of 2023 after battling dementia, I feel Carrie's pain. Sometimes we get angry sometimes we're scared, and sometimes we may break down and cry. Dealing with death of a loved one is a hard process.
At least Samantha sent flowers which was nice of her showing she still cares despite being on the outs with the girls. I do wonder who informed her of big death
I was glad Sam send the flowers. I wonder if she will eventually acknowledge carries texts? Maybe in the season finale, Carrie gets a surprise response
Samantha not being here holding Carrie’s hand,comforting her,making her smile by saying something cheesy will FOREVER haunt me! They did that character so wrong!!! IDC what the actresses went thru,they were fighting on all those seasons if we are to believe what everyone says but they still played TF out of the characters,friendships and arcs. HER MISSING THIS MILESTONE IN CARRIE’S LIFE-over such a petty reason-IS THE BIGGEST MISTAKE THE SERIES CREATORS COULD MAKE.
It’s absolutely heart wrenching. They really shouldn’t have shown Brady in these couple of minutes, tho. The kid is awkward and selfish and knows nothing of Big.
Exactly. Brady "knows" big. It's implied. just because viewers don't see the connection, Carrie is Mirandas bff, thinking that you see and know everything would imply the you don't believe they go to the bathroom, just because you don't see it
I know it’s just a story… but I’ve seen this other times in real life….. if you are heartbroken, devastated, your world has dropped out from under you, I would think fashion would not even be on your mind. Being Carrie or not. You actually pick out a fashionable little hat to wear offset and at a chic angle. Now Jackie Kennedy…. That’s how a widow dresses.
He married several times while seeing Carrie. Carrie was just a side chick that got reaaaaaaaly lucky. He even left her at the alter. The comment made about him was spot on.

May he rest in peace 🙏
oh yeah forgot he died
EXACTLY 💔😢
in a way it kinda felt like a silent goodbye to him as well..
Susan Sharon’s “Am I the only one who remembers what a prick he was to her?” comment was the only thing in this scene I connected with. 😅

And he to sit there at a pretend funeral. 😢

@@ennvee1989 I don’t think so. I read a long time ago the plan was always for Big to pass away.

I love this song but never thought of one to be played at a funeral… but I do now ❤️ it says so much !
Who is singing this beautiful Song? What is its name?
@@mariachiaramanchi3177
Hello it’s me - Todd Rundgren
@@Mandyssweet thanks a lot♥️
I just found out that Willie died back in September. I had know idea! He was only 57 years old. So, so sad. He was such a great character and a great Actor. RIP Willie.
And just like that...this song is going to be stuck in my head the rest of this year.
I can never hear it again without thinking of Big 😢
True
It's the same song he put on when he was knocking with Carrie
Playing this song was a nice touch!!
I love the moment between Steve and Bradie
it was icky
The only time the kid respected a parent of his.
John James "Big" Preston.......RIP
I feel disconnected to this scene. Im not sure why. It seems cold and odd. The essence of Big is stripped down to a white room, black clothes and Carrie in a strange hat. Its about her, her loss. Not his personality. Big had a sense of humor and lots of friends. I keep thinking about him singing in the italian restaurant. He liked colors and humor. I think he would have chosen Sinatra "I Did it My Way" or something along those lines instead of this strange song no one ever heard before. I can't tear up because its not Big.
It's not my favorite venue, either, but it's not that easy to think through everything right after a death. This is an art gallery in New York; she may have wanted to avoid a traditional funeral home setting or one of them had a connection to the place. Maybe they were expecting a larger crowd than the funeral home could accommodate? (Notice some people are standing without seats in the back.) And actually, the hat (fascinator) isn't strange; it's common in the UK and the kind of thing Carrie wears.
EXACTLY!! 👌🏽
You got that right
Its his fav song that they both played last
Well Big's place was always modern and minimalist. I think he would approve expect for the no flowers rule. He probably wanted a more up beat song at his funeral. I really expected her to play Moon River.
What a wonderful song ❤
I loved the aesthetic of Big's funeral.
Very minimalist ✨
I feel the opposite. A funeral is not a fashion statement. I find it sad and a sign of what our society is coming to.
@@akc783 sad? Well duh, it’s a funeral. Some people prefer it that way, society has nothing to do with that. 😂
@@juliansydney9819 staking?
Ironic because Big was the complete opposite!
@Psychology major I know, right?
"Beige. Beige. Everything in my house is fucking beige."
"But I thought you wanted beige ".
I cried more then she did 😢
It's gotten to the point that whenever I hear this song now, I will cry.
They ahould have played Moonriver. That was his favorite song. Carrie and Big danced together with that song the night he left for Napa....
This looks like it takes place in an art gallery.
1) she didn't do CPR, 2) didn't call 911, 3) didn't give him nitro which was previously mentioned earlier in the episode. She wanted him to die or she's very stupid. But also both can be true.
Some people don't know how to administer CPR, as hard as that is to believe. Doing CPR would've messed her makeup up I guess. Doesn't make for good tv.
Well, he was an a** to her the entire show. Then he just miraculously changes?
Nope. Never happens.
When Big came to Paris to get Carrie, he was running up the hotel stairs and she yells "you're gonna have a heart attack".....remember?
We spent so many years watching Big and Carrie's relationship build through the years, go through different phases, breakups, dramas, etc. Only for us to finally se them end up together and get married. We literally got the Big happy end we all wanted, only for them to kill Big off like nothing ever happened, even Carrie calling him "the Big mistake" just because she fell for Aidan again. All those years of seeing the girls go througu so much and develop into new, better persons, just for it to be all knocked down with one idiotic modern series. Sad!
the little gaze between carrie and stanford - or sarah and willie.
Big was always leaving Carrie and when they’re finally together he dies . I know a lot of people don’t like carries character but damn she went thru a lot with him . She was so depressed when he stood up her at the wedding and then has to go thru grief all over after really losing him forever 😢
This made me like Che’s character ever more. Their kindness to a complete stranger was touching.
Not a fan of her character.

Che was great around Miranda as well given the circumstances.
She's annoying._
“Am I the only one who remembers what a prick he was to her?” Exactly.
WHY THIS SCENE GETS ME IN MY EMOTIONS !
My best friend passed away three years ago and now...I'm not sleeping.This piece of AJLT was not a great idea given I just started grief therapy.
This scene reminds me of when I witnessed a woman dying from a heart attack while I was at the doctor’s office for a checkup. Her husband noticed that she wasn’t waking up when it was time for her checkup. My mom took me to the kids area, because she didn’t want me to feel traumatized by the whole incident (Also because I am autistic.) The woman’s death draws eerie parallels to Big’s unexpected passing, as they both had sudden heart attacks.
it feels like they should have left it all alone. maybe a reunion show but honestly it all just feels very sad. Willie RIP
Seeing Sandford made me tear up.
This brought a lump to my throat
Stanley 😭😭😭 I can’t believe you are gone
Love you Staney 🥰
I felt like the funeral was like Big, black and white sometimes. And the song and video was perfect. I bawl my eyes at the song and this scene 💔
Did anyone notice that the white background and font used to name Big are the same ones used in Six Feet Under for some characters when they die?
Style over substance. Entirely what this show was about. That blonde woman was right
In honesty their relationship was childish and semi toxic for their age! Kept going back and forth, cheating on other people to be together, breaking up, coming back together…fighting not fighting…yea he was a prick to her at times
Cause she was neurotic.
Todd Rundgren music is a good choice. His body of work is tremendous and his concerts are always festive, thoughtful occasions.
Why isn't Todd in the Rock and Roll Hall of fame?
@@finalflowerchild I believe he was recently inducted at the request of his fans. He didn't/doesn't want it.
I commented this on another video and I'll comment it again here. That is the classiest funeral I've ever seen and want to copy that for my own funeral. (Too bad I don't have any home videos from childhood.)
I cried a lot !:(
This made me so sad..
Having lost my father this year due to covid19, damn this song and the whole scene makes me cry and think that life is just an instant in time.
That song is just stuck in my head these days... 😪😪
I lost my longtime significant other to Covid last year. This was hard to watch; I wished I'd waited a few years to do so. I'm so sorry for your loss as well; take care of yourself.
Same. Lost my mother unexpectedly to covid as well
I’m so sorry for your losses…😞 Sending you all the biggest virtual hugs ♥️
My condolences 🙏🏾
It is. Just wait til old people die and they're only 25 years older than you...or less.
💯♥️♥️♥️♥️😭😭😭😭😭😭great song 🎵 I was just listening to this song before I watched 👀 ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Willie Garrison in the us scene makes me sad knowing he’s the one who actually died.
I can't hear this song and not get sad anymore! Damn u mr. Big :(
I cried the whole funeral. I cried seriously for almost 15 min. What a good 😢 😪🤤😪
get help
As someone who lost her beloved grandmother back in late December of 2023 after battling dementia, I feel Carrie's pain. Sometimes we get angry sometimes we're scared, and sometimes we may break down and cry. Dealing with death of a loved one is a hard process.
Before this series came out, there always have rumer said big will died of heart disease, now it prove it's real.
This is just brilliant xx
Mario Cantone did willie so well here, this hurts
thanks for sharing
At least Samantha sent flowers which was nice of her showing she still cares despite being on the outs with the girls. I do wonder who informed her of big death
Big was a public figure, so his death was probably in the news
That's a possibility. It shows sam still cares.
@@chrispeplinski7306 It does, I agree
I was glad Sam send the flowers. I wonder if she will eventually acknowledge carries texts? Maybe in the season finale, Carrie gets a surprise response
I'm sure Miranda and Charlotte would at least text her, even if they never reached her.
Samantha not being here holding Carrie’s hand,comforting her,making her smile by saying something cheesy will FOREVER haunt me! They did that character so wrong!!! IDC what the actresses went thru,they were fighting on all those seasons if we are to believe what everyone says but they still played TF out of the characters,friendships and arcs. HER MISSING THIS MILESTONE IN CARRIE’S LIFE-over such a petty reason-IS THE BIGGEST MISTAKE THE SERIES CREATORS COULD MAKE.
How could you kill Big?😳 she better wake up like Sue Ellen one morning and find Bobby in the shower !!!!😭
I know, right?
That was Pam who woke up from a bad dream
It’s absolutely heart wrenching. They really shouldn’t have shown Brady in these couple of minutes, tho. The kid is awkward and selfish and knows nothing of Big.
he may of been friends w/big. i mean afterall Miranda is a bf of carrie. They were most likely hanging out all of them together
I took it as he was Brady's uncle John... makes sense that they are all still close family.
you know i thought Carrie and Big were Godparents maybe to Brady? idk? anyone watch every show?
Exactly. Brady "knows" big. It's implied. just because viewers don't see the connection, Carrie is Mirandas bff, thinking that you see and know everything would imply the you don't believe they go to the bathroom, just because you don't see it
I know it’s just a story… but I’ve seen this other times in real life….. if you are heartbroken, devastated, your world has dropped out from under you, I would think fashion would not even be on your mind. Being Carrie or not. You actually pick out a fashionable little hat to wear offset and at a chic angle. Now Jackie Kennedy…. That’s how a widow dresses.
Killing off big because he was falsely accused that's horrible
The coldest funeral in tv history
RIP Willie
If Carrie was dominican she be on top of the casket screaming at the top of her lungs🤣.
He married several times while seeing Carrie. Carrie was just a side chick that got reaaaaaaaly lucky. He even left her at the alter. The comment made about him was spot on.
What a song to play at Big’s funeral ❤❤❤❤
