This week, the Sex and the City sequel series finished for good, bringing an end to the adventures of Carrie Bradshaw and friends. Here’s why it never lived up to its beloved predecessor.
Twirling in high heels and a sparkly pink ballgown, singing along to Barry White’s You’re The First, The Last, My Everything, Carrie Bradshaw danced out of our lives forever in the show’s final ever episode, which aired in the US last night.
And Just Like That – the sequel series to Sex and The City – had only clocked up three seasons (half of its predecessor) but a few weeks ago, amid reported falling ratings, showrunner Michael Patrick King announced out of the blue on the show’s Instagram account that the series would be the final ever. “It became clear to me that this might be a wonderful place to stop,” he explained, adding: “the ongoing storytelling of the Sex and the City universe is coming to an end”. Sarah Jessica Parker – who has played the writer-cum-hopeless-romantic since 1998 – wrote a long tribute post on her own social media account: “Carrie Bradshaw has dominated my professional heartbeat for 27 years. I think I have loved her most of all”.
The idea of a SATC sequel was met with feverish excitement when it was officially announced back in January 2021. How amazing would it be to catch up with the four, much-loved old friends – Carrie (Sarah Jessica Parker), Charlotte (Kristin Davis), Miranda (Cynthia Nixon) and Samantha (Kim Cattrall) – and revisit their lives as 50-somethings? However the show stalled at the first hurdle when it was revealed one of the original four women, Cattrall’s man-eating PR queen, would not take part. In the second season of the show, Cattrall threw fans some crumbs with a 70-second cameo, but filmed her scene without any of the other cast members.
