Samantha Jones Will Return (Via Text Message) To The Second Season Of “And Just Like That”
Despite being the kind of show that, at times, likely had more than one person joking, “And just like that, I grabbed the remote and watched an old episode of Beachfront Bargain Hunt on HGTV instead,” HBO went ahead and renewed And Just Like That… for a second season. With that brings the return of all your favorites: Carrie, Charlotte, Miranda. Okay, not all your favorites, because Kim Cattrall, aka Samantha Jones, still wants nothing to do with any of this. Still, Sex and the City writer and director Michael Patrick King decided to include Samantha in AJLT by making Carrie text with her here and there. Well, Samantha In Text Form is back!
Sarah Jessica Parker Continues To Keep The Hate Alive Between Herself And Kim Cattrall
They say that time heals all wounds, but the clock that’s tracking Sarah Jessica Parker’s messy feud with Kim Cattrall must be operating in dog years or something, because these two continue to pack in as much drama as possible within the general concept of time. We’re nearing the fifth anniversary if the time Kim Cattrall called out SJP by name as one of the big reasons why she wasn’t ever going to show her face in a third Sex and the City movie. Since then, there have been ten lifetimes of sniping back and forth, each blaming the other for any on-set animosity that evolved into one of entertainment’s most enduring feuds. Sarah Jessica Parker is returning to that well once again to pump it drier than the desert jokes of SATC 2.
Kim Cattrall Talked About “And Just Like That…”, And Says She Was Never Asked To Be A Part Of It
Unlike the character of Mr. Big, the conversation around Kim Cattrall’s exit from the Sex and the City universe just won’t die. Thanks to Kim, of course, who is always more than happy to remind us that she’s done done with that period of her life. But no one can accuse Kim of burning bridges, because it sounds like that bridge was reduced to nothing but charcoal twigs and smoking ask years ago. Which would be why Kim didn’t hesitate to talk about how the crew on HBO’s And Just Like That… wasn’t exactly rushing to screen print her name on the back of a foldable set chair. Kim says she wasn’t at all surprised that she wasn’t involved with AJLT, because they made zero effort to invite her.
HBO Has Renewed “And Just Like That” For A Second Season
I’m afraid we haven’t seen the last of Che Diaz. Since Twitter had such a raucous time roasting And Just Like That, it seemed inevitable that HBO would take credit for starting a “cultural conversation” and renew it for a second season. And according to The Hollywood Reporter, that’s exactly what happened. AJLT, HBO’s sort-of sequel to Sex And The City, will be returning, and given that most of the success of the first season seemed largely due to humanity’s inability to look away from the sight of blood-soaked overalls, mangled Monolos and characters eviscerated beyond recognition, I fear we can expect even more of the same.
Cynthia Nixon And Nicole Ari Parker Responded To Meghan McCain Saying “Wokeness” Ruined “And Just Like That…”
Well, we’ve done it now. Because we cracked a few jokes about the ham-fisted way the writers of And Just Like That… tried to address the lack of diversity in Sex and The City, Meghan McCain wanted to get in on the fun. Only Meghan wouldn’t know fun if it was crimped, curled, teased, twisted, and sitting on top of her head wrapped in a bow. Since she no longer has The View on which to obnoxiously opine, Meghan #TookToTheDailyMail to drag AJLT complaining that “wokeness kills everything.” According to People, Andy Cohen asked the cast of AJLT for their reactions to Meghan’s DM op-ed on his Sirius XM show, and my oh my do those ladies look tired.
“Sex And The City” Author Candace Bushnell Was “Startled” By HBO Max’s “And Just Like That…”
Sex and the City‘s author Candace Bushnell, says she was “startled” by a lot of the decisions of the reboot series, And Just Like That… She says in a new interview with The New Yorker that the series is definitely not what she would have expected it to be, calling it a “television product” where Carrie Bradshaw ended up a “quirky girl who married a rich guy.” BLOOP! I mean… I couldn’t help but wonder… was Candace right?
