The sequel series to Sex and the City failed to live up to its predecessor due to poor character development, chaotic writing, and a lack of cohesion. Unlike the original, where Carrie’s voiceover tied together loose ends, the reboot relied on forced situations with no real pay-offs. Miranda became unrecognizable as a confident lawyer, Charlotte was reduced to a cartoonish mother, and Carrie’s romantic choices were delusional. The show’s attempt to rectify its lack of diversity fell flat with cringeworthy characters like Che Diaz and Seema’s awkward stand-up shows. Despite some flashes of brilliance, And Just Like That was a wasted opportunity to explore nuanced relationships in middle age.
