I'm too old to rally for us again." It interesting that Carrie and Charlotte don't really understand Miranda's easy setting aside of her relationship with Steve. I think the friends might have it right this time. Miranda is heading for some eye-opening times--but perhaps some good sex too.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08092900195805759791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20303812.post-2021425300644747732022-01-22T05:11:05.462+00:002022-01-22T05:11:05.462+00:00I didn't watch the original so I'm not sur...I didn't watch the original so I'm not sure this would make any sense to me.

Be...John, glad you get so much enjoyment out of it. Beats me. Still, I enjoy things that might make YOU run to the hills. Can't think of an example this minute.<br /><br />I only ever watched (ages ago) a few episodes - obviously Big's voice was ear candy and his laid back manner soothing; other than that I couldn't bear it. It was one of those occasions when I reminded myself that I won't live forever and my time better employed.<br /><br />Having said that, Samantha was my favourite if you'd take away her insatiable sexual appetite. She was the one with the brain, the wit; not needy (well, apart from her insatiable appetite). Interesting that the actress playing her didn't take up the baton to take part in the current series. Maybe sometimes it's best to quit when ahead; a bit like leaving a party when it's at full swing.<br /><br />UUrsulahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00722046288685936851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20303812.post-51799832081486021602022-01-21T18:08:19.980+00:002022-01-21T18:08:19.980+00:00Steve, if you have never watched this show, whatev...Steve, if you have never watched this show, whatever you do, don't start watching it now. You have missed that window where it will grow on you. Groaning more likely. Still, I suppose they do it differently in NY. Never in my life have I come across a more pathetic bunch of women. It's embarrassing (not least if you feel, in the slightest, that you bear any responsibility of the antics of your own gender). And whenever I see Jessica Parker I feel I am communing with my youngest sister's horses - face to face. Only they ARE horses and their long faces, by dint of being horses, beautiful.<br /><br />UUrsulahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00722046288685936851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20303812.post-53166030050080310332022-01-21T16:23:15.880+00:002022-01-21T16:23:15.880+00:00I am really loving this and don't want this se...I am really loving this and don't want this series to come to it's end. I really hope they will make more. I love the fact that the cast have aged in real time and that it shows how life moves on and changes. Steve seems to have aged the most but maybe he has been made to look like that to fit the story line. I feel for both Steve and Miranda. I like the way they have used Carrie's cloths too.
