Narrowing it down sure was tough, so let us know which cringy “And Just Like That…” moment YOU'D add to our list! Be sure to also check out our video of the Top 10 Plot Holes in And Just Like That - th-cam.com/video/K9UBWEWVvbk/w-d-xo.html
Miranda and Che getting it on in the kitchen when Miranda is SUPPOSED to be helping Carrie is all kinds of cringe. It's not really surprising that Carrie eventually catches them.
Yeh. That was a sh**ty thing of Miranda to do instead of taking care of her bestie. She coulda been like "sorry I can't, I gotta help Carrie" y'know, instead of gettin finger blasted
Samantha was a real friend when she questioned BIG directly worrying about her 'Friend' Carrie. Carrie is a selfish social climber of sorts. She just has friends/ BF who can provide her with something. Kim/Samantha>>>>>SJP/Carrie
The fact that Miranda got so upset at Steve for having sex is the biggest “I wish I could slap her” moment for me. What exactly was he supposed to be doing while she uprooted and chased Che?
Carrie wouldn't even invite her. After her missing, she would be the focus of the funeral (with John, of) and not the sad pity widow she claimed to be for the whole season
It's so strange: Cynthia Nixon did a fantastic acting job playing Miranda in SATC. Now she's playing herself in AJLT and her acting couldn't be any worse!!
I was rejoicing when he finally stood up to her. It sucked when he started to apologize after he called her out but it does show what kind of person he is. He’s kind & he will always love Miranda.
What gets me about the Samantha explanation is how unnecessary it was. You could have easily explained her absence without shitting on her whole character. The iCarly reboot did it exceptionally well with Jennette McCurdy. Sam joined a biker gang and while they missed her, they were happy she was living her dream! See, fits her character and shows how strong they are as friends. The whole thing with Samantha reeks of the feud between Kim Cattrall and Sarah Jessica Parker mixed with bitterness that Kim refused to do the show.
true...saying she was an ATM for Sam, when she had always been an independent character was a slap in the face. Samatha always said her friendships meant everything...
One thing that never gets mentioned is the ordeal with Harry. He was introduced as the extremely tough, super smart attorney. Now he's just some naive, wimpy dumb dumb.
I've always loved Steve. He deserved better from the start. She always treated him like a backup plan. Same thing with Aidan. Both guys deserved so much better.
@@paulinegauthier1867 He was the best man Carrie ever had, and she chose the player who died anyways 😂 hopefully he doesn't give into her shit again
The whole Sam situation made me cringe. She was too much of a good friend to just get upset over a business deal and dump them. They could have said she went to travel the world and see new things or something of that nature.
CEO and majority shareholder of a public relations corporation, with international clients, shows power and a very important reason for moving, in the second film they leave Samantha's job future very scattered and they could start from there but like what happened With all the series since 2010, there is no team that continues.
What's predictable and funny is how Kim Cattral just made a 1 minute appearance for the last episode of season 2 🤣🙄. I had a feeling that would be all she'd do , they were not even in the same room.
Or that she opened a new office in London, moved there for a bit , and now she can't return because a cancer survivor elderly woman traveling across the globe during a pandemic is simply unsafe and she's prioritising her health.
I remember in the original series when Miranda told off the other girls for obsessing over romantic relationships and then in the new series she became a doormat for Che. She was a headstrong woman in the original series! Make it make sense!
I SOOOOOO Agree with you regarding calling 911. My husband had a medical issue a few weeks ago, and when I found him all I could think about was that I do the EXACT Opposite of what Carrie did. I don't care how SHOCKED you are - every human's first thought would be to get aid so that the loved has a chance. I was PISSED the writers did this. He still could have died, but keep it real!
Did your husband rape people in real life because Chris Noth did.. They shouldn't have even allowed him to be in any scenes at all and should have spoke of him dying in the show and that is all instead of allowing him on any set with women. Sarah should be ashamed for not refusing to do these scenes with him.
I watched about 20 mins of the first season and knew I just couldn’t with this show. At least we have the 6 seasons of the original show and it’s smart writing/execution to watch and remember .
Agreed! It’s a insult to how great the original show was. And to be honest I don’t think that the original Carrie, Miranda and Charlotte would like the reboot version of their characters. And we know that SAMANTHA made the best choice of not being involved in the reboot. There is no way it was going to be good. The original was a lot to live up to.
The second half of AJLT' second season is slightly better than all the previous episodes of the serie, but saddenly It's nothing like SAC (speaking of quality)
You sometimes just want to be kind to other people for your soul's sake. Not to mention they have a son and would have to meet ocasionally in life. It's awfull to go though life with hatred and resentment towards other people. Steve apologizing makes him a big person and it was the mature thing to do. He had cleared the water and can now moove on.
Regarding Samantha’s scene. Good friends would have discussed that Samantha actually called Carrie. She never mentioned it again. Aiden is gone for 5 years and Carrie is good with it? Most people would break up so they both could continue with their lives. Everyone is too rich which makes their problems annoying and charlotte’s kids are bratty and spoiled
Charlotte's kids turned out to be rude and unappreciative brats. Can't stand either of them. Brady is actually not that bad considering all the bullshit Miranda has placed on them.
well that might be a great lesson for childless women struggling to conceive. In the end, your kids could still suck the life out of you, even when you fought so hard to have them. Some people are not built to be good parents
Yeah and like after one date they are back together and madly in love? Come on... Everything is either forced or rushed in this series. And what's with the "wait 5 years for me"??? It seems they're trying to ruin Aidan's character. He was the best in SATC and they turned him into a childish unreasonable person. Lame.
@@emmanuellegabarda2774 totally! Like he can't bring his son with him into the new house, that is so big you could fit a football field in there! And he can't even visit her ones or twice a month? Or find therapy for his teenage son and be back with Carrie in 6 months? What about the mother? She was so concerned about her kids and Aidan but she is to dumb to handle a 14 year old? Everything in that series is forced and they try to make it romantic. SATC was at least a little more authentic.
Should had just said the truth. I cheated with the love of my life, Big my now dead husband, that I married after Aidan and I broke up. Big would want me to move on. I loved Aidan too (even tho he was always my 2nd choice). So ''just like that'' we're back together, 😂. No good way to answer that but her answer was the worst.
Carrie stalking Natasha (Big's ex that he cheated on with Carrie) should've been on the list and in the top 5 really. the scene that follows is one of the BEST in the series, but before that, i was cringing so much at a 50+ y.o. being that immature. Carrie, get a life.
In SATC, when Natasha put Carrie in her place with the entire: "...and now, you've just ruined my lunch" monologue, OMG👏👏👏👏👏 AND THAT, SHOULD HAVE BEEN THAT!! I STRUGGLED to get through AJLT and when I saw they brought Natasha back and Carrie was STALKING HER!!! JESUS CARRIE!!!
Let’s not forget when Che uses pretty much everything her and Miranda went through for standup material. Then by some twisted form of fate ended up getting a date out of it! Ugh! Also in that whole scene, it’s very cringe to watch Carrie just sit there and let Che humiliate her friend. No! No! No! I still can’t believe how much the writers screwed this whole “reboot” up. It’s truly disappointing.
Not listed here: Lily's terrible song about how much it sucks to have rich parents. The Samantha phone call. Carrie sneaking into Lisette's apartment. Carrie painting in high heels. Anthony's "poignant" season 2 "arc" about learning to bottom. All of Lisa and Herb's comical screw-ups. Honestly, it might just be faster to count the noncringe moments.
Im sorry but the Samantha phone call was one of the very few redeeming points of the show. Fans loved that one phone call over entire Che-Aiden-Rock drama .
There's a reason why fabases exists. It's to carry on the legacy of amazing shows. Imagine insulting the fans of Cheers, Friends, MASH, or god help us, I Love Lucy
Steve's hearing being a butt of many jokes is very insulting. And if Carrie didn't need a publisher (the whole Samantha explanation) who was the woman she was talking to about her new book in season 1?
Publicist...not publisher. The publisher is the one who gets her books printed and on store shelves. The publicist handles her publicity and the marketing, gets her booked on talk shows and podcasts, arranges parties for the release and invites other famous people to those parties to get critics and the press to show up and generate buzz about the book by writing about it and reviewing it.
I agree 100% with what you said: the new characters seem to be here just to tick a box. I have absolutely nothing against diversity of course, but this felt soooo forced. Very awkward to watch. This is such a bad show in my opinion... everything seems either forced or rushed (Miranda and Che, Aidan and Carrie...) .
This show is insufferable, preachy woke garrrrbage. Kim made the correct choice in not returning. Idk how anyone can unironically watch it & stand more than a minute watching it in earnest.
Agreed. It felt forced like they were literally looking at a list of what they felt should be included in the "woke" list and just jammed it in there randomly without thought. It was terrible. Nothing felt natural and the relationships didn't feel genuine anymore. And Che.....was absolutely a trainwreck of a character. Hated every moment of her scenes. It was so fake and embarrassing . None of the old magic was there between the friends.
@@heathernks8 Yes. If Rock/Rose still felt that way after she became of age, okay. But I was super slow to develop. I never, ever said, "I don't feel like a girl." Took forever for the tits and hips to come in, but they finally arrived. We DID grow up with tomboys not surgeries! Can't we just wait a while and not immediately act on everything??????
first of all, i hate that Miranda is gay, in first season when she was 30+ she had a date with a woman and she said - i`m not gay ( 30 + not, but 50 + yes, it`s weird and in one season she judge Samantha about that), second she was brutal to Steve about cheating, it`s so unfair. This show doeen`t makes sense.
Well it's not that implausible that people realise things about their sexuality later in life. It's actually fairly common tbh. It even happened to Miranda's actress herself, Cynthia Nixon. She ID-ed as straight for decades and then met her now-wife -- in her thirties? Forties? -- had kids and they've been a big happy family ever since. Maybe she wanted to pay homage to that life journey - the life journey of a fair few people tbqh - in this story. I gotta say even when I was watching the original SATC, Miranda always read as the most likely to be bi/pan or gay but have it click later in life. And not just because she bucked the trend sometimes in her appearance on the show; slimline powersuits anyone? 😉 There are plenty of more masc- or androgynous-presenting women who will never be anything other than straight. But she just gave off a ... vibe, I guess? So I myself as a queer woman was NOT surprised when Cynthia Nixon got married to a woman much later.
@@akinyiomer4589 It seems to me that Miranda was made a lesbian not to show that people can realize their orientation at a more mature age, but for the LGBT agenda. Plus, they showed her realization and the subsequent aftermath is simply terrible.
I'll tell you why Steve seems to have aged so much - it's because he was married to Miranda for too long. He deserved someone better than the "new and improved Miranda". She's just sooo cringey (just like AJLT).
Other cringe worthy moments not already mentioned: Charlotte's "accident" in her white pants. Brady & Lily hooking up. Miranda & Charlotte talking about Brady & Lily hooking up. The de-evolution of Miranda. When did she become a blithering idiot? I know the consensus is that the character of Che is the worst (I wholeheartedly agree!), but their reaction when Miranda freaked out about her son calling her crying after his girlfriend dumped him was extremely insensitive. I know there are other moments, but this is all I can think of for now.
The blithering idiot thing is A big thing. Fierce lawyer Miranda becomes a professional and personal trainwreck, capable Art Director Charlotte becomes a neurotic housewife, Carrie becomes a directionless widow ...all terrible.
Excellent list! I feel so relieved in finding this video & discovering it's acceptable to gravely dislike Che. I'll add a few to your list, if I may. Hell on wheels (literally) wheelchair boss. Must check the disabled box. And wouldn't it be cool if she was so confident as to be totally InSaNE? Not. Miranda originally passing on her internship thing. No Way would OG Miranda so easily walk away from that for a sex-heavy crush. The d*ck pic (& subsequent reaction) of Candice Bergen's well-endowed boyfriend from the senior fundraiser. 😩 Charlotte's clinical felatio attempt in the bathroom, followed by the talk w/ her daughter & the "checking for cancer." Charlotte's clinical invitation in the bedroom for her husband to um... "release his love" on her chest. I'm sorry.. ewww. DEF don't need to see that from those two. Honestly, a lot of the sex scenes made me cringe or even FF (watching BIG! what?). Odd, becuz typically I have zero problem and even enjoy a story-driven, real, hot scene involving seggs or intimacy. Idk what it was. I think some were just awkward while others w/ the core characters were like.. having to watch your friends or parents get it on. Too much!
I actually loved the Charlotte scene. I read so many comments from fellow Gen X women who had no clue what flash periods were, so we're all pretty grateful to know now before we hit menopause & think we're "all done", lol. Miranda's line ("Suppressed it immediately!"🤣) was vintage Miranda, too!😂
@@SuzyQ89 This show is insufferable, preachy woke garrrrbage. Kim made the correct choice in not returning. Idk how anyone can unironically watch it & stand more than a minute watching it in earnest.
@@megem616 she didnt want to because of the way they were going to play her. She never evolved...we saw a downfall of her character in the movies. And in this series she was supposed to sleep with Brady. Kim said all the bedroom and nude scenes, with no character development, was killing Samantha's character
@@lisawentworth6831 ok, good to know that...I thought I heard she was not gonna play Samantha anymore long before AJLT was considered for real but maybe I remember it wrong
I knew I wasn’t going to watch AJLT when Samantha wasn't going to be part of it, and looking at this list I'm SOOOOO glad I didn't. I can't stand disrespectful kids so between Brady and Lily I wouldn't have made it through an episode. And the overt performative diversity box ticking seemed exhausting. What a wasteful effort from such an iconic franchise.
I'd say sexualizing minor teen boys was way more than cringe, it was borderline illegal and disgusting. If it had been fathers doing that to teen girls, the scene would never have been shot.
While i definitely agree with you about it being creepy. Saying if the roles were reversed, it would of never been shot is a big lie. Especially considering there are several movies where a grown married man falls in love with a teen girl...like American Beauty.
@@roberthurley6860 My point is, those types of films have been shot. Which disproves the original comment that it would have never been shot had it been male adults lusting after teen girls. What are you not understanding?
I completely agree with the trying to replace Samantha comment. They’re using Seema as a replacement and it’s so infuriating. I think if it wasn’t so obvious it would be better, but they try to make her too similar instead of her own new character. Also, Samantha was always such a loyal fan she would never just unfriend them over a business thing. That felt like it wasn’t any thought placed into it. Che is just annoying and Miranda’s character has become so cringe. I’ve always loved Sex in the city but the AJLT makes me wonder what happened to the characters I love. There seems to not be any upward growth in them.
Samantha charged Carrie A COCKTAIL as her fee for being her publicist. She clearly didn't need Carrie's money. That's why the whole narrative didn't work. It's stupid and insulting to Samantha.
What about the out-of-touch ostentatious displays of wealth? At least in SATC Carrie was aware of her consumption. Now she buys and sells her properites in NYC whimsically! Geesh.
The milf list thing was so gross. If it was a bunch of fathers pining for middle school girls, that shit would be called out immediately. But it’s such a double standard when it comes to women. NOT cool!
Seriously? There's literally a book turned into a movie called Lolita. About a middle aged man falling in love with a 9 year old. The book has a huge cult following. Let's pretend that middle school age girls have not being s3xualized all over Hollywood....Dan Snyder, Jeffery Einstein ring a bell?? Everyone in the comments is calling out how gross the milf episode is.
What erked me is when Che started making cameo videos while Miranda was trying to sleep because she had to get up at like 5am …. Like who does that? Also if I paid for a cameo video wouldn’t it be weird to get a video of the person laying in bed?
Why did the writers feel the need to include EVERY different type of character ie. Gay, bisexual, nonbinary, handicapped, etc. my goodness it was on overload and not realistic.
Even as a lesbian I can say it was waaaay too much, but mostly because of the lazy way it was written and unfolded. It reminded me of the last paper I’d write end semester if was getting a D+ in the class-trying to shove all the info I was supposed to have learned so far in one shot. Without any panache or structure
I remember in season 1 or 2 Miranda once kissed a girl and literally was so sure saying she is not a lesbian, and now they made her being a bi or lesbian is literally the biggest mistake ever like what the actual fck
I don't know why they bothered bringing Aiden back , it's like they wanted to just replace Big with him ....but then at the end of season 2 they change his plot again 🙄. Also with how badly Carrie treated him in the past ,I doubt Aiden would want anything to do with her 🤷♀️.
I disagree that they mishandled the Rock storyline. Unlike you I wasn’t left aghast by Anthony’s reaction to Charlotte’s revelation about Rock. I felt it was a genuine expression of compassion and common sense. He basically presented what experts who haven’t taken the extreme views of some call “watchful waiting”. What would you have preferred? That he throw Roc a party?
@@lisawentworth6831 silly and absurd right? As a kid I suffered from anorexia which is another form of body dysmorphia. Had my doctor been forced to follow this affirmation therapy he would have had to affirm that I was fat! It’s just as absurd in my opinion that we need to automatically affirm kids gender dysmorphia which, in reality, could very well be a temporary state over confusion which, if treated with compassionate watchful waiting, will likely emerge to be gay. And what exactly is wrong with that that so many want to “treat” with affirmation therapy/puberty blockers/ surgery?
The actor who plays Che Diaz I've always liked...in other roles. This role was and continues to be awful. Being 60 this year I can say, yes we talk about age. We talked about it in our teens wanting to be older, in our 30's trying to back up into our 20's, in our 40's finding out that aging isn't so bad and in our 50's when our first classmate from high school dies from illness. Not a Boomer thing, a life thing.
Mine was definitely the one with Charlotte showing Lily how to put in a tampon - you've got to be kidding me there are IKEA like instructions in the box - absolutely ridiculous ❤
Well, I showed my daughter. It isn’t as unrealistic as you might think. There’s nothing to be ashamed or embarrassed of in showing young women. My mom made me keep my tampons in my room so my brothers didn’t have to see the box. Times are different.
The explanation of Samantha's absence was the worst. They really said she stopped being friends cause Carrie fired her as her publicist. That totally goes against everything from SATC as Samantha said she would PR her book release party for lunch. What a joke.
All the actresses/actors are amazingly talented. But to me, a die-hard SATC fan, all these two season of AJLT has succeeded in doing only one thing: eliminating any lingering fantasy/hope that SATC can continue to evolve and grow with its audience. Nope. They have destroyed all my fav characters (including Carrie, whom some people find annoying). By now I have already mentally separated these two universe so as to keep my fondness of them, locked up safe in my past memory along with SATC. I'll still watch the new series but they are an entirely new (and not really well done) show featuring actresses/actors I can recognize on the screen, and sadly, they are not Carrie, Charlotte, Miranda and Samantha.
the scene with charlotte and anthony discussing rock was NOT cringe. is charlotte supposed to immediately help her 13 year old daughter change genders when they're not even of legal age?
@@Mukanimou that’s real tho. People settle for the person they think is best for them for the long run but sometimes the one they dropped is who they truly desired the whole time and they can’t stop thinking about them during the whole relationship with the one they chose. Big dying just allowed her to get some clarity especially after he had secrets
@@Mukanimou yea I’m thinking of watching sitc again as a woman in my late 20s because I watched it as a teenager. But I believe Carrie saw big as the one and the love of her life like you said, the man she obsessed over. However once big died, the secrets/doubts were revealed and her judgement was no longer clouded she realized who she should’ve chosen in the beginning. Aiden has always been a much better man for Carrie than big, she always loved big more than he loved her. But aiden always loved Carrie more.
I can say this…..the fact that she confused one black person for another is not uncommon…..sad but not uncommon. They just pointed out a stereo type that is VERY real and continues to happen to this day.
It was a dated badly done stereotype, yes it happens sometimes. But I refuse to believe Charlotte would mix up 2 different women just because they're both black 🤦♀️, but that whole race storyline with Charlotte & Miranda in season 1 was ridiculous. Miranda behaved like a incompetent fool around Naya 🙄. Reminded me of that other over the top TV show ' college girls se x lives or something ', where a white person can't function without saying something offensive towards a black person or again mixing 2 different black people's names up . The average normal person does not behave this way 🤷♀️.
The writers have created Che as a shallow, selfish, self-indulgent person who does not respect boundaries, has zero sensitivity and empathy, and is a mediocre comedian (on a good day). Hoping this is stellar acting instead of a biography
Hey thx…..I’ve not caught this show and wondered if it was worth watching. You did a great job of answering that question 🤣🤣 It looks all kinds of awful (but YOU did a great job ripping it apart!). Well done 👍🏻
I love sex and the city like I love air. I stood in line to buy it at Tower Records at midnight the year it first came out on VHS. Yeah. That was my teenage thrill. But I haven’t watched this reboot yet. I’ve watched everything about it on MissMojo and The Take, and honestly… it looks like it might be the worst show they could possibly have done. Reaching, trying too hard, and who is it supposed to be appealing to? Not the fans of the first show, that’s for sure.
Everyone in the show always talks about "poor" Carrie but in my opinion she kinda sucks 😕 going after John's ex wife AGAIN to get closure was totally selfish and Charlotte is wayyyyyy to passive aggressive with her kids she's a welcome mat to them
I always imagined the first episode of season one would start with “and just like that… the cancer came back…” And they would show Carrie looking at the picture of the four of them on the rooftop lovingly. But I think the writers and HBO wanted to hold out for Kim Cattrall possibly coming back… And they didn’t know Willie Garson was going to die, which happened far too quickly for them to be able to film a proper goodbye for Stanford. Ultimately, I don’t think anyone is going to be happy with the way they did things. One person will want it one way, Big lives, and they live happily ever after. Another person is happy to see him go and her move on with her life and possibly Aidan. There’s no pleasing anyone anymore. Nevertheless, I agree with a lot of these moments. 🥂
Miranda acted towards Steve the way some low-value men usually act: mess up and then blame everything on their spouse and gaslight them into apologizing
When Carrie didn't call 911, ya it sucked but he had been there for a while and was probably not going to make it if she had called so she spent his last moments holding him and making sure he knew he was loved and not alone. I've been with a few family members in their last moments and if you can't help them then just being for them is more important. 911 would have taken a few mins to get there and she would have wasted the last 2/3 mins speaking to the operator rather than holding him in his final moments. ya i wanted her to help him and for him to survive but just like in real life people don't always get happily ever after and the storyline would have been a bit boring if nothing changed for the main characters.
I’m not sure if it was just me, but in the last episode during the dinner party when Carrie asks people to go around & say what they’re letting go of - her answer sounded like a message to the viewers. “Expectations, letting go of expectations.” She describes that she’s specifically talking about expecting things to go how we want them to & letting go of that. The dialogue felt out of place & very poignant. It seemed very intentional to me & especially meant for viewers.
Did anyone else notice that during season 1 Miranda's hair was grey and then suddenly in one episode in season 2 it's red again? And that was after the episode where they all talked about how it was okay to go grey. I don't know why I continued to watch this show. I think I'm going back to just watching the very authentic, funny Golden Girls from now on.
She went back to dyed red (and honestly an AWFUL shade of dyed red) in the last episode of season 1. She comes out and stands next to her son and they are both headed to the airport, Brady to Europe and Miranda to LA with Che. Brandy comments on her hair by saying, "so you're copying my look now?" and Miranda replies, "I had it first."
When it comes to this show, it's best to take the "multiverse" approach. Just like The Carrie Diaries, AJLT doesn't exist within the same universe as SATC.
@@sams3015 It wasn't a bad show at all, and I did watch all of it. It's just that it was wildly inconsistent in relation to SATC. Carrie's dad left when she was young, and she didn't have a sister. Plus she didn't meet Samantha first, on SATC so it was all thrown off. So I think of it as existing in its own universe.
This whole season has been cringe. The way Charlotte is acting is so freaking weird, Carrie hasn’t grown at all and Miranda - I have no clue about. But this whole series is just sad with so much gratuitous sex and sophomoric story lines. I mean I guess they are trying to show that people in their 50s still have sex and are still desirable, but it sure doesn’t play that way.
I can't get passed Miranda's story line. It just does not fit the character development at all! You compare both women from one series to this and it just doesn't make sense at all. It's forcing a plot for representational reasons. The whole "you don't like mayo? That should have clued us in" scene was so.... cringe to push a faulty narrative.
Just one thing… Garson was in charge of his storyline. He chose to have his character written off the way Stanford was… he wanted Stanford alive and well and didn’t want his character to die.
We do know that is what the writers wanted with Che's focus group, to make audience feel somewhat guilty for the harsh criticism, they say that in the podcast

Why was it renewed for a Second Season and now Season 3?? 🙂😊😯
@@wallstherb I'm wondering the same thing
@@wallstherbThey must know people hate-watch it.
Everything about this show is cringy! It’s such a disappointing departure from the original.
STOP TRYING TO ACT LIKE FANS ARE POLARIZED BY CHE AND MIRANDA! WE AREN'T IT'S A UNIVERSAL DISLIKE.
I don't think fans were divided over Che at all, everyone seemed united in despising Che.
And all for the same reason: they suck as a person
I never heard a single kind thing about them.
Yeah it is, it became too woke lol. They tried too hard to check all the list, make her non binary Mexican lesbian and lame lol
yep
hated they .. I'm not united. However to each his or her ohhh whoops they own .. and all thoughts are welcome on social media.
Pretty much every Che Diaz-centric scene could qualify for this list.
Agreed, I'm all for Non Binary representation, and I love Sara Ramirez, but this feels very forced.
@@trinaq true. I've always been a fan of Sarah since Greys but it's like, come on girl
yes lol
Yep
There should be top ten reasons why Che Diaz is the worst
CHE DIAZ. If cringe was a person.
Forever associated with that image.
Miranda and Che getting it on in the kitchen when Miranda is SUPPOSED to be helping Carrie is all kinds of cringe. It's not really surprising that Carrie eventually catches them.
and the fact that she couldn’t get up to walk to the bathroom but could figure out how to pee in a Snapple bottle which was probably 50x harder
Yeh. That was a sh**ty thing of Miranda to do instead of taking care of her bestie. She coulda been like "sorry I can't, I gotta help Carrie" y'know, instead of gettin finger blasted
Not sold whatsoever!
I guess it was payback from the time that Miranda slipped in the shower and couldn’t get up and Carrie sent Aiden to help her instead of going herself
@@Taylorstyles101😂 probably
Let’s not forget Che’s stand up mocking Miranda and Carrie just sits there, not leaving with her friend. Is there a “20 ways Carrie sucks” video?
Yeah she was a bad friend che is lucky samantha wasn't there because she would had gave them a piece of her mind
@@angelaholmes8888 I miss Samantha. The show is not the same without her.
Samantha was a real friend when she questioned BIG directly worrying about her 'Friend' Carrie. Carrie is a selfish social climber of sorts. She just has friends/ BF who can provide her with something.
Kim/Samantha>>>>>SJP/Carrie
You are right
I can’t believe Che was surprised Miranda was upset about it!
The fact that Miranda got so upset at Steve for having sex is the biggest “I wish I could slap her” moment for me. What exactly was he supposed to be doing while she uprooted and chased Che?
It's also really insulting to think that Samantha wouldn't come to Big's funeral, after all those years.
Yeah. Shameful.
but would come to the apartment diner party??
She would've been there!!
Justice for Samantha!
Carrie wouldn't even invite her. After her missing, she would be the focus of the funeral (with John, of) and not the sad pity widow she claimed to be for the whole season
It's so strange:
Cynthia Nixon did a fantastic acting job playing Miranda in SATC.
Now she's playing herself in AJLT and her acting couldn't be any worse!!
Yeah I keep waiting for the episode where she embarrasses herself running for governor.
@@keelahrose 🤣😅😆😅😂🤣😅😆
This show has gotten worse.
Get rid of all these new idiot characters.
Steve totally deserved better I hate how he was treated 😡
Agreed, I'm glad that he called out Miranda on not caring how her affair with Che was impacting him and Brady.
I was rejoicing when he finally stood up to her. It sucked when he started to apologize after he called her out but it does show what kind of person he is. He’s kind & he will always love Miranda.
The moment they met she was so rude to him and he had a "she needs me" reaction
They called it exactly. I was like TELL HER ASS OFF, STEVE!!! And just like that... he apologized. WTF?!?
JUSTICE FOR STEVE. I hated how they handled him. He was such a good character, who was the realest.
What gets me about the Samantha explanation is how unnecessary it was. You could have easily explained her absence without shitting on her whole character. The iCarly reboot did it exceptionally well with Jennette McCurdy. Sam joined a biker gang and while they missed her, they were happy she was living her dream! See, fits her character and shows how strong they are as friends. The whole thing with Samantha reeks of the feud between Kim Cattrall and Sarah Jessica Parker mixed with bitterness that Kim refused to do the show.
Explaining without shitting on her character wouldn't have satisfied Sarah Jessica Parker's ego.
Kim Cattrall is handling it better everyone! She got everything she asked for to appear for 2 minutes! 😁 Good for her!
Also Jennette Mccurdy and Miranda gosgrove are still great friends so that helped
true...saying she was an ATM for Sam, when she had always been an independent character was a slap in the face. Samatha always said her friendships meant everything...
Sjp and the director never invited kim cattral on the new show. It was the hbo exec who begged kim cattral.
Let's just admit it: Che was one big mistake for the show
No one wants this character, they do nothing for LGBT+ causes except make us look like attention seekers who need to chastise others to feel special
"BIG mistake. Huge." - *Julia Roberts' voice
I think the whole AJLT was a big mistake.
Unfortunately, it’s the show’s attempt at trying to stay relevant. Not working. Write her out.
Che should have been killed off instead of Big.
One thing that never gets mentioned is the ordeal with Harry.
He was introduced as the extremely tough, super smart attorney.
Now he's just some naive, wimpy dumb dumb.
This irritated me too, it’s like they totally forgot about the husband’s personalities from the show.
Men bashing is very en vogue now. Disgusting about all the men on here. They deserve better
The baby talk is so annoying too- started in SaTS season 6
I've always loved Steve. He deserved better from the start. She always treated him like a backup plan.
Same thing with Aidan. Both guys deserved so much better.
Agree with you there, especially about Aidan! Why on earth would any woman choose Big over that beautiful, kind, loving, funny man?!
Maybe thats why they really became besties. No seriously I agree and I love them both so much.
@@paulinegauthier1867exactly!! Big treated her like trash and only woke and was like yea I want u now. Ivk
@@paulinegauthier1867 He was the best man Carrie ever had, and she chose the player who died anyways 😂 hopefully he doesn't give into her shit again
You know it's REALLY bad when Carrie, of all people, is asking, "WHAT are you doing?!?!"
Spot on! 😂😂
*Raises hand* to complain about Che Diaz.
😀😀😀
😂
The whole Sam situation made me cringe. She was too much of a good friend to just get upset over a business deal and dump them. They could have said she went to travel the world and see new things or something of that nature.
Yes, she could have become the PR had of a London based company or cancer charity etc...made her more fabulous...
CEO and majority shareholder of a public relations corporation, with international clients, shows power and a very important reason for moving, in the second film they leave Samantha's job future very scattered and they could start from there but like what happened With all the series since 2010, there is no team that continues.
What's predictable and funny is how Kim Cattral just made a 1 minute appearance for the last episode of season 2 🤣🙄. I had a feeling that would be all she'd do , they were not even in the same room.
Or that she opened a new office in London, moved there for a bit , and now she can't return because a cancer survivor elderly woman traveling across the globe during a pandemic is simply unsafe and she's prioritising her health.
Well life imitates art so
Kim Catrall not returning should have been a sign, no? 😂
😱🤣😭😂 right
She's back!
Except, she returned
@@sizzurpr7608for literally one minute.
@@sizzurpr7608
For 1' sequence, filming appart? Sure... Her character "Returned"... 😂
I remember in the original series when Miranda told off the other girls for obsessing over romantic relationships and then in the new series she became a doormat for Che. She was a headstrong woman in the original series! Make it make sense!
I SOOOOOO Agree with you regarding calling 911. My husband had a medical issue a few weeks ago, and when I found him all I could think about was that I do the EXACT Opposite of what Carrie did. I don't care how SHOCKED you are - every human's first thought would be to get aid so that the loved has a chance. I was PISSED the writers did this. He still could have died, but keep it real!
Did your husband rape people in real life because Chris Noth did.. They shouldn't have even allowed him to be in any scenes at all and should have spoke of him dying in the show and that is all instead of allowing him on any set with women. Sarah should be ashamed for not refusing to do these scenes with him.
I watched about 20 mins of the first season and knew I just couldn’t with this show. At least we have the 6 seasons of the original show and it’s smart writing/execution to watch and remember .
I never got into the original but this seems like a totally different show
Agreed! It’s a insult to how great the original show was. And to be honest I don’t think that the original Carrie, Miranda and Charlotte would like the reboot version of their characters. And we know that SAMANTHA made the best choice of not being involved in the reboot. There is no way it was going to be good. The original was a lot to live up to.
the episodes get better as they move along
@@Saramonster29 do they? just finished season 2 and it's really awful
The second half of AJLT' second season is slightly better than all the previous episodes of the serie, but saddenly It's nothing like SAC (speaking of quality)
I hated when steve apologized to miranda she deserved it after what she did
We were so proud of him for standing up to and confronting her. Then for him to just crumble and give into her was cringe.
You sometimes just want to be kind to other people for your soul's sake. Not to mention they have a son and would have to meet ocasionally in life.
It's awfull to go though life with hatred and resentment towards other people.
Steve apologizing makes him a big person and it was the mature thing to do. He had cleared the water and can now moove on.
Right? Everything he said was the truth and she needed to hear it
I actually agreed with Anthony I believe it was a breath of fresh air that the show needed
True
Regarding Samantha’s scene. Good friends would have discussed that Samantha actually called Carrie. She never mentioned it again. Aiden is gone for 5 years and Carrie is good with it? Most people would break up so they both could continue with their lives. Everyone is too rich which makes their problems annoying and charlotte’s kids are bratty and spoiled
Charlotte's kids turned out to be rude and unappreciative brats. Can't stand either of them.
Brady is actually not that bad considering all the bullshit Miranda has placed on them.
Yep Charlotte daughters are horrible Brady is annoying but not as bad
well that might be a great lesson for childless women struggling to conceive. In the end, your kids could still suck the life out of you, even when you fought so hard to have them. Some people are not built to be good parents
Uuuuh Brady definitely has asshole characteristics he only got away with it because Miranda blew up the home....just saying
they r teens😂
brady was carrie fav for a reason
Carrie saying leaving Aidan was a big mistake... Carrie is such a bad person. Through all the seasons of SATC. She is a self-centered pick me girl.
Yeah and like after one date they are back together and madly in love? Come on... Everything is either forced or rushed in this series. And what's with the "wait 5 years for me"???
It seems they're trying to ruin Aidan's character. He was the best in SATC and they turned him into a childish unreasonable person. Lame.
@@emmanuellegabarda2774 totally! Like he can't bring his son with him into the new house, that is so big you could fit a football field in there!
And he can't even visit her ones or twice a month? Or find therapy for his teenage son and be back with Carrie in 6 months? What about the mother? She was so concerned about her kids and Aidan but she is to dumb to handle a 14 year old? Everything in that series is forced and they try to make it romantic. SATC was at least a little more authentic.
Should had just said the truth. I cheated with the love of my life, Big my now dead husband, that I married after Aidan and I broke up. Big would want me to move on. I loved Aidan too (even tho he was always my 2nd choice). So ''just like that'' we're back together, 😂. No good way to answer that but her answer was the worst.
That sooo pissed me off.
Carrie stalking Natasha (Big's ex that he cheated on with Carrie) should've been on the list and in the top 5 really. the scene that follows is one of the BEST in the series, but before that, i was cringing so much at a 50+ y.o. being that immature. Carrie, get a life.
In SATC, when Natasha put Carrie in her place with the entire: "...and now, you've just ruined my lunch" monologue, OMG👏👏👏👏👏
AND THAT, SHOULD HAVE BEEN THAT!!
I STRUGGLED to get through AJLT and when I saw they brought Natasha back and Carrie was STALKING HER!!!
JESUS CARRIE!!!
Let’s not forget when Che uses pretty much everything her and Miranda went through for standup material. Then by some twisted form of fate ended up getting a date out of it! Ugh!
Also in that whole scene, it’s very cringe to watch Carrie just sit there and let Che humiliate her friend. No! No! No!
I still can’t believe how much the writers screwed this whole “reboot” up. It’s truly disappointing.
Not listed here: Lily's terrible song about how much it sucks to have rich parents. The Samantha phone call. Carrie sneaking into Lisette's apartment. Carrie painting in high heels. Anthony's "poignant" season 2 "arc" about learning to bottom. All of Lisa and Herb's comical screw-ups. Honestly, it might just be faster to count the noncringe moments.
Your comment made me realize that so much of the show is cringe, they should have picked out the few times it wasn’t cringey for this video.
Im sorry but the Samantha phone call was one of the very few redeeming points of the show. Fans loved that one phone call over entire Che-Aiden-Rock drama .
I had no problem with Anthony's reaction to Rock
I don’t think anyone did
That’s because his reaction was sane and the right take!
100%
it was the correct response. some of the answers on this list were 100% politically correct b.s
Here too
I hate it when writers attack the fans it's so pathetic
There's a reason why fabases exists. It's to carry on the legacy of amazing shows. Imagine insulting the fans of Cheers, Friends, MASH, or god help us, I Love Lucy
This show won the woke Olympics, and left the fans behind.
Agreed! It’s lazy to name critical expressing as “haters”
@@georgialerangis2123 The thing is, they've been criticised for the woke stuff by the very people they included it for. The whole show was a mistake.
Steve's hearing being a butt of many jokes is very insulting.
And if Carrie didn't need a publisher (the whole Samantha explanation) who was the woman she was talking to about her new book in season 1?
Publicist...not publisher. The publisher is the one who gets her books printed and on store shelves. The publicist handles her publicity and the marketing, gets her booked on talk shows and podcasts, arranges parties for the release and invites other famous people to those parties to get critics and the press to show up and generate buzz about the book by writing about it and reviewing it.
I agree 100% with what you said: the new characters seem to be here just to tick a box. I have absolutely nothing against diversity of course, but this felt soooo forced. Very awkward to watch. This is such a bad show in my opinion... everything seems either forced or rushed (Miranda and Che, Aidan and Carrie...) .
This show is insufferable, preachy woke garrrrbage. Kim made the correct choice in not returning. Idk how anyone can unironically watch it & stand more than a minute watching it in earnest.
Agreed. It felt forced like they were literally looking at a list of what they felt should be included in the "woke" list and just jammed it in there randomly without thought. It was terrible. Nothing felt natural and the relationships didn't feel genuine anymore. And Che.....was absolutely a trainwreck of a character. Hated every moment of her scenes. It was so fake and embarrassing . None of the old magic was there between the friends.
What Anthony said was completely in character.
Exactly THIS!! He's an old-head GenXer like me & we grew up with tomboys, not surgeries! His advice was spot-on.
@@heathernks8 Yeah nowadays they expect everyone to just accept everything , it's like we're not meant to question things.
It was really the only thing I didn’t hate in the show
@@heathernks8 Yes!! I also thought his advice was good . Was surprised it was on the list.
@@heathernks8 Yes. If Rock/Rose still felt that way after she became of age, okay. But I was super slow to develop. I never, ever said, "I don't feel like a girl." Took forever for the tits and hips to come in, but they finally arrived. We DID grow up with tomboys not surgeries! Can't we just wait a while and not immediately act on everything??????
first of all, i hate that Miranda is gay, in first season when she was 30+ she had a date with a woman and she said - i`m not gay ( 30 + not, but 50 + yes, it`s weird and in one season she judge Samantha about that), second she was brutal to Steve about cheating, it`s so unfair. This show doeen`t makes sense.
Yeah, this bugged me too.
Well it's not that implausible that people realise things about their sexuality later in life. It's actually fairly common tbh. It even happened to Miranda's actress herself, Cynthia Nixon. She ID-ed as straight for decades and then met her now-wife -- in her thirties? Forties? -- had kids and they've been a big happy family ever since.
Maybe she wanted to pay homage to that life journey - the life journey of a fair few people tbqh - in this story. I gotta say even when I was watching the original SATC, Miranda always read as the most likely to be bi/pan or gay but have it click later in life. And not just because she bucked the trend sometimes in her appearance on the show; slimline powersuits anyone? 😉
There are plenty of more masc- or androgynous-presenting women who will never be anything other than straight. But she just gave off a ... vibe, I guess? So I myself as a queer woman was NOT surprised when Cynthia Nixon got married to a woman much later.
@@akinyiomer4589 It seems to me that Miranda was made a lesbian not to show that people can realize their orientation at a more mature age, but for the LGBT agenda. Plus, they showed her realization and the subsequent aftermath is simply terrible.
I'll tell you why Steve seems to have aged so much - it's because he was married to Miranda for too long. He deserved someone better than the "new and improved Miranda". She's just sooo cringey (just like AJLT).
Other cringe worthy moments not already mentioned:
Charlotte's "accident" in her white pants.
Brady & Lily hooking up.
Miranda & Charlotte talking about Brady & Lily hooking up.
The de-evolution of Miranda. When did she become a blithering idiot?
I know the consensus is that the character of Che is the worst (I wholeheartedly agree!), but their reaction when Miranda freaked out about her son calling her crying after his girlfriend dumped him was extremely insensitive.
I know there are other moments, but this is all I can think of for now.
The blithering idiot thing is A big thing. Fierce lawyer Miranda becomes a professional and personal trainwreck, capable Art Director Charlotte becomes a neurotic housewife, Carrie becomes a directionless widow ...all terrible.
Excellent list! I feel so relieved in finding this video & discovering it's acceptable to gravely dislike Che. I'll add a few to your list, if I may.
Hell on wheels (literally) wheelchair boss. Must check the disabled box. And wouldn't it be cool if she was so confident as to be totally InSaNE? Not.
Miranda originally passing on her internship thing. No Way would OG Miranda so easily walk away from that for a sex-heavy crush.
The d*ck pic (& subsequent reaction) of Candice Bergen's well-endowed boyfriend from the senior fundraiser. 😩
Charlotte's clinical felatio attempt in the bathroom, followed by the talk w/ her daughter & the "checking for cancer."
Charlotte's clinical invitation in the bedroom for her husband to um... "release his love" on her chest. I'm sorry.. ewww. DEF don't need to see that from those two.
Honestly, a lot of the sex scenes made me cringe or even FF (watching BIG! what?). Odd, becuz typically I have zero problem and even enjoy a story-driven, real, hot scene involving seggs or intimacy. Idk what it was. I think some were just awkward while others w/ the core characters were like.. having to watch your friends or parents get it on. Too much!
I actually loved the Charlotte scene. I read so many comments from fellow Gen X women who had no clue what flash periods were, so we're all pretty grateful to know now before we hit menopause & think we're "all done", lol. Miranda's line ("Suppressed it immediately!"🤣) was vintage Miranda, too!😂
The writers Hail Mary pass to save Che’s character by saving a box of kittens 😂…and Carrie suddenly showing a maternal side for a kitten.
All the fashion, especially in season 1. Charlotte’s puffy-sleeved dressed and Carrie’s hats in particular.
I thought Che would’ve been gone as soon as they broke up with Miranda. Their friendship with Carrie feels forced.
So the show referred to Che as "they"??? Oh puh-lease!!! So glad I didn't even bother with this re-boot!!!
She
@@SuzyQ89 This show is insufferable, preachy woke garrrrbage. Kim made the correct choice in not returning. Idk how anyone can unironically watch it & stand more than a minute watching it in earnest.
@@SuzyQ89 I know, I hate that! Makes a plural out of a single
No idea why they thought we needed a sequel to Sex & the City...
Cringe MOMENTS???
You can't fit all AJLT episodes in this list. This would be a marvel movie
Hahahaha!! 😂
I absolutely hated what the writers did to samantha it was so stupid to me how they written her out 😡🤬
They did it to give the "finger" to Kim Cattrall for not joining the re-boot! Good for Kim for not wanting any part of this GARBAGE!!!!
but the actress didn't want to play in AJLT so they needed to do sth...
@@megem616 she didnt want to because of the way they were going to play her. She never evolved...we saw a downfall of her character in the movies. And in this series she was supposed to sleep with Brady. Kim said all the bedroom and nude scenes, with no character development, was killing Samantha's character
@@lisawentworth6831 ok, good to know that...I thought I heard she was not gonna play Samantha anymore long before AJLT was considered for real but maybe I remember it wrong
This show is, by far, the most tone deaf, poorly acted, sad excuse for a television series EVER. May it burn in hell.
Top ten reasons why Che Diaz is the worst list please
Totally
the fact that this is already a Top 20 list isn't a good thing
Charlotte’s Botox is overkill
We have enough content from both seasons to make two more top twenty lists 😅😅
Somebody said AJLT is like watching a diversity training video.
So accurate
I knew I wasn’t going to watch AJLT when Samantha wasn't going to be part of it, and looking at this list I'm SOOOOO glad I didn't. I can't stand disrespectful kids so between Brady and Lily I wouldn't have made it through an episode. And the overt performative diversity box ticking seemed exhausting. What a wasteful effort from such an iconic franchise.
I'd say sexualizing minor teen boys was way more than cringe, it was borderline illegal and disgusting. If it had been fathers doing that to teen girls, the scene would never have been shot.
While i definitely agree with you about it being creepy. Saying if the roles were reversed, it would of never been shot is a big lie. Especially considering there are several movies where a grown married man falls in love with a teen girl...like American Beauty.
@@necroflowers2244 Yes and that movie was way creepy and beyond cringy. What is your point?
@@roberthurley6860 My point is, those types of films have been shot. Which disproves the original comment that it would have never been shot had it been male adults lusting after teen girls. What are you not understanding?
@@necroflowers2244 Thank you for the clarification. Indeed I misread your comment.
I completely agree with the trying to replace Samantha comment. They’re using Seema as a replacement and it’s so infuriating. I think if it wasn’t so obvious it would be better, but they try to make her too similar instead of her own new character. Also, Samantha was always such a loyal fan she would never just unfriend them over a business thing. That felt like it wasn’t any thought placed into it. Che is just annoying and Miranda’s character has become so cringe. I’ve always loved Sex in the city but the AJLT makes me wonder what happened to the characters I love. There seems to not be any upward growth in them.
Samantha charged Carrie A COCKTAIL as her fee for being her publicist. She clearly didn't need Carrie's money. That's why the whole narrative didn't work. It's stupid and insulting to Samantha.
Great memory. Samantha wouldn’t have cared about losing a friend as a client.
What about the out-of-touch ostentatious displays of wealth? At least in SATC Carrie was aware of her consumption. Now she buys and sells her properites in NYC whimsically! Geesh.
THIS!!! The root of the quality of SATS steadily going down ☝🏻
The milf list thing was so gross. If it was a bunch of fathers pining for middle school girls, that shit would be called out immediately. But it’s such a double standard when it comes to women. NOT cool!
Seriously? There's literally a book turned into a movie called Lolita. About a middle aged man falling in love with a 9 year old. The book has a huge cult following. Let's pretend that middle school age girls have not being s3xualized all over Hollywood....Dan Snyder, Jeffery Einstein ring a bell?? Everyone in the comments is calling out how gross the milf episode is.
What erked me is when Che started making cameo videos while Miranda was trying to sleep because she had to get up at like 5am …. Like who does that? Also if I paid for a cameo video wouldn’t it be weird to get a video of the person laying in bed?
Irked*
If a group of DAD'S WERE LOOKING LUSTFULLY OVER A TEENAGER GIRL, OMFG!!!
Everything about che is so cringey 😬💯
yes lol
Why did the writers feel the need to include EVERY different type of character ie. Gay, bisexual, nonbinary, handicapped, etc. my goodness it was on overload and not realistic.
Even as a lesbian I can say it was waaaay too much, but mostly because of the lazy way it was written and unfolded. It reminded me of the last paper I’d write end semester if was getting a D+ in the class-trying to shove all the info I was supposed to have learned so far in one shot. Without any panache or structure
I remember in season 1 or 2 Miranda once kissed a girl and literally was so sure saying she is not a lesbian, and now they made her being a bi or lesbian is literally the biggest mistake ever like what the actual fck
Agreed! It was season 1 when she was on her law firm’s softball team.
@@MK-cm8ec yessss omg I’m glad you guys remember like wtf why is there no one bringing this up 😭
What about the over the top Aiden crying scene?
Lol
She was more distraught over Aiden than the death of her husband 😬
I am *sooooooo* glad I never watched this. Thank you for the heads up 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
trying to replace Samantha with many nonsensical characters is like sewing several more fingers instead of one that was chopped
I'm glad Che is no 1.
Can we also talk about Aidan breaking up with Carrie for a 3rd time in the season 2 finale, do those 2 never learn!!
I don't know why they bothered bringing Aiden back , it's like they wanted to just replace Big with him ....but then at the end of season 2 they change his plot again 🙄. Also with how badly Carrie treated him in the past ,I doubt Aiden would want anything to do with her 🤷♀️.
@@gemstar7286 you'd think so, but I guess Aidan is so trauma bonded by Carrie.
I disagree that they mishandled the Rock storyline. Unlike you I wasn’t left aghast by Anthony’s reaction to Charlotte’s revelation about Rock. I felt it was a genuine expression of compassion and common sense. He basically presented what experts who haven’t taken the extreme views of some call “watchful waiting”. What would you have preferred? That he throw Roc a party?
Exactly!!! His reaction was totally on point and a breath of fresh air.
yes, his reaction was sensible...this idea to jump to surgery on kids when they are just figuring out life is silly
@@lisawentworth6831 silly and absurd right? As a kid I suffered from anorexia which is another form of body dysmorphia. Had my doctor been forced to follow this affirmation therapy he would have had to affirm that I was fat! It’s just as absurd in my opinion that we need to automatically affirm kids gender dysmorphia which, in reality, could very well be a temporary state over confusion which, if treated with compassionate watchful waiting, will likely emerge to be gay. And what exactly is wrong with that that so many want to “treat” with affirmation therapy/puberty blockers/ surgery?
The kitchen scene is revenge for Carrie leaving Miranda high and dry when she had an injury
Why does Steve sound like Daffy Duck ?
The actor who plays Che Diaz I've always liked...in other roles. This role was and continues to be awful. Being 60 this year I can say, yes we talk about age. We talked about it in our teens wanting to be older, in our 30's trying to back up into our 20's, in our 40's finding out that aging isn't so bad and in our 50's when our first classmate from high school dies from illness. Not a Boomer thing, a life thing.
Mine was definitely the one with Charlotte showing Lily how to put in a tampon - you've got to be kidding me there are IKEA like instructions in the box - absolutely ridiculous ❤
Lily is worse than the odious Che, IMO.
Well, I showed my daughter. It isn’t as unrealistic as you might think. There’s nothing to be ashamed or embarrassed of in showing young women. My mom made me keep my tampons in my room so my brothers didn’t have to see the box. Times are different.
The explanation of Samantha's absence was the worst. They really said she stopped being friends cause Carrie fired her as her publicist. That totally goes against everything from SATC as Samantha said she would PR her book release party for lunch. What a joke.
All the actresses/actors are amazingly talented. But to me, a die-hard SATC fan, all these two season of AJLT has succeeded in doing only one thing: eliminating any lingering fantasy/hope that SATC can continue to evolve and grow with its audience. Nope. They have destroyed all my fav characters (including Carrie, whom some people find annoying). By now I have already mentally separated these two universe so as to keep my fondness of them, locked up safe in my past memory along with SATC. I'll still watch the new series but they are an entirely new (and not really well done) show featuring actresses/actors I can recognize on the screen, and sadly, they are not Carrie, Charlotte, Miranda and Samantha.
the scene with charlotte and anthony discussing rock was NOT cringe. is charlotte supposed to immediately help her 13 year old daughter change genders when they're not even of legal age?
I can’t believe they “and just like that”-ed Big’s freaking DEATH.
Probably because the actor was accused of Harassment, so they just ditched him.
Good big was a terrible man anyway😂. Carrie should’ve stuck with aiden from the beginning
@@Mukanimou that’s real tho. People settle for the person they think is best for them for the long run but sometimes the one they dropped is who they truly desired the whole time and they can’t stop thinking about them during the whole relationship with the one they chose. Big dying just allowed her to get some clarity especially after he had secrets
@@Mukanimou I don't know, but it was a scandal in the news. Google it .
@@Mukanimou yea I’m thinking of watching sitc again as a woman in my late 20s because I watched it as a teenager. But I believe Carrie saw big as the one and the love of her life like you said, the man she obsessed over. However once big died, the secrets/doubts were revealed and her judgement was no longer clouded she realized who she should’ve chosen in the beginning. Aiden has always been a much better man for Carrie than big, she always loved big more than he loved her. But aiden always loved Carrie more.
As a latina and also my last name is Díaz, Che Díaz is an embarrasment. They really missed out the chance to have a latino-lgbtq character.
AJLT showed us that Samantha made SATC.
I can say this…..the fact that she confused one black person for another is not uncommon…..sad but not uncommon. They just pointed out a stereo type that is VERY real and continues to happen to this day.
They literally wrote the one Black friend 😭😭
It was a dated badly done stereotype, yes it happens sometimes. But I refuse to believe Charlotte would mix up 2 different women just because they're both black 🤦♀️, but that whole race storyline with Charlotte & Miranda in season 1 was ridiculous. Miranda behaved like a incompetent fool around Naya 🙄. Reminded me of that other over the top TV show ' college girls se x lives or something ', where a white person can't function without saying something offensive towards a black person or again mixing 2 different black people's names up . The average normal person does not behave this way 🤷♀️.
You’ve never thought someone. Was someone else ? Or it only happens to black people? Lol
@@kham6006 I've had it numerous times my entire life - and i'm white!
My black colleague actually said, we (white people), all look the same to her.
The writers have created Che as a shallow, selfish, self-indulgent person who does not respect boundaries, has zero sensitivity and empathy, and is a mediocre comedian (on a good day). Hoping this is stellar acting instead of a biography
The entire 2 seasons. I beg the cast to say NO to a third season.
It’s been renewed lol.
I didn't make it to season 2
Hey thx…..I’ve not caught this show and wondered if it was worth watching. You did a great job of answering that question 🤣🤣 It looks all kinds of awful (but YOU did a great job ripping it apart!). Well done 👍🏻
That wasn’t a stand up special that was a comedy concert😂
😂
I love sex and the city like I love air. I stood in line to buy it at Tower Records at midnight the year it first came out on VHS. Yeah. That was my teenage thrill.
But I haven’t watched this reboot yet. I’ve watched everything about it on MissMojo and The Take, and honestly… it looks like it might be the worst show they could possibly have done. Reaching, trying too hard, and who is it supposed to be appealing to? Not the fans of the first show, that’s for sure.
Same with me, I haven't watched it yet but I'm already sooo disappointed. I used to love the show...bummer
Everyone in the show always talks about "poor" Carrie but in my opinion she kinda sucks 😕 going after John's ex wife AGAIN to get closure was totally selfish and Charlotte is wayyyyyy to passive aggressive with her kids she's a welcome mat to them
I always imagined the first episode of season one would start with “and just like that… the cancer came back…” And they would show Carrie looking at the picture of the four of them on the rooftop lovingly. But I think the writers and HBO wanted to hold out for Kim Cattrall possibly coming back… And they didn’t know Willie Garson was going to die, which happened far too quickly for them to be able to film a proper goodbye for Stanford. Ultimately, I don’t think anyone is going to be happy with the way they did things. One person will want it one way, Big lives, and they live happily ever after. Another person is happy to see him go and her move on with her life and possibly Aidan. There’s no pleasing anyone anymore. Nevertheless, I agree with a lot of these moments. 🥂
Miranda acted towards Steve the way some low-value men usually act: mess up and then blame everything on their spouse and gaslight them into apologizing
Also Miranda literally had a fling with the black man in the SATC and now she acts like she’s never seen a black person before
When Carrie didn't call 911, ya it sucked but he had been there for a while and was probably not going to make it if she had called so she spent his last moments holding him and making sure he knew he was loved and not alone. I've been with a few family members in their last moments and if you can't help them then just being for them is more important. 911 would have taken a few mins to get there and she would have wasted the last 2/3 mins speaking to the operator rather than holding him in his final moments. ya i wanted her to help him and for him to survive but just like in real life people don't always get happily ever after and the storyline would have been a bit boring if nothing changed for the main characters.
Season 2 was such a step up from season 1 though so I'm looking forward to season 3.
I’m not sure if it was just me, but in the last episode during the dinner party when Carrie asks people to go around & say what they’re letting go of - her answer sounded like a message to the viewers. “Expectations, letting go of expectations.” She describes that she’s specifically talking about expecting things to go how we want them to & letting go of that.
The dialogue felt out of place & very poignant. It seemed very intentional to me & especially meant for viewers.
Did anyone else notice that during season 1 Miranda's hair was grey and then suddenly in one episode in season 2 it's red again? And that was after the episode where they all talked about how it was okay to go grey. I don't know why I continued to watch this show. I think I'm going back to just watching the very authentic, funny Golden Girls from now on.
She went back to dyed red (and honestly an AWFUL shade of dyed red) in the last episode of season 1. She comes out and stands next to her son and they are both headed to the airport, Brady to Europe and Miranda to LA with Che. Brandy comments on her hair by saying, "so you're copying my look now?" and Miranda replies, "I had it first."
The Golden Girls 💛
It was not a show. It was a lecture
Why was it renewed for a Second Season and now Season 3?? 🙂😊😯
Who knows
Great video. I can imagine that it must have been pretty hard to pick just 20 scenes from at least a million cringeworthy material
When it comes to this show, it's best to take the "multiverse" approach. Just like The Carrie Diaries, AJLT doesn't exist within the same universe as SATC.
The Carrie Diaries was actually pretty nice, I was sad it got cancelled
@@sams3015 It wasn't a bad show at all, and I did watch all of it. It's just that it was wildly inconsistent in relation to SATC. Carrie's dad left when she was young, and she didn't have a sister. Plus she didn't meet Samantha first, on SATC so it was all thrown off. So I think of it as existing in its own universe.
@@CringerKitty I think it was directly based on Bushnell’s own book rather than the tv show lore
@@sams3015 Yes, I think you're right on that one (I skipped that book).
This whole season has been cringe. The way Charlotte is acting is so freaking weird, Carrie hasn’t grown at all and Miranda - I have no clue about. But this whole series is just sad with so much gratuitous sex and sophomoric story lines. I mean I guess they are trying to show that people in their 50s still have sex and are still desirable, but it sure doesn’t play that way.
And Just Like That really brought us all together... with our universal hatred of the charicature Che and basically all of the dialogue 😬
The show is AWFUL. I watched the first season. That was more than enough.
HOW could you make a list with only twenty? It could have included 1,020.
I can't get passed Miranda's story line. It just does not fit the character development at all! You compare both women from one series to this and it just doesn't make sense at all. It's forcing a plot for representational reasons. The whole "you don't like mayo? That should have clued us in" scene was so.... cringe to push a faulty narrative.
I feel like Steve deserved better.
Samantha deserved better.
Stanford deserved better.
Big deserved better.
And Just Like that it is Shit and the City
Just one thing… Garson was in charge of his storyline. He chose to have his character written off the way Stanford was… he wanted Stanford alive and well and didn’t want his character to die.
Carrie reusing her Vivienne Westwood Gown isn't cringe. I see it as paying homage and respect since Vivienne passed away
Correct do not disrespect the fashion. EVER. EVER
And it was so GORGEOUSLY styled!! Even better than at the wedding 😍
….. just 20? There were that many in the first episode. 😊
I couldn’t get through the first episode, I hated it.
We do know that is what the writers wanted with Che's focus group, to make audience feel somewhat guilty for the harsh criticism, they say that in the podcast
