[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My only complaint, it’s time to lose “Rambo”, she can call herself Miranda now. Was really hoping that was the pause before she sent the text. I thought it was a cute crush affectation using the nickname at first, now I want her to own her experience. Using her own name in that text would have shown a wee bit of growth/self awareness. [/quote]

Also she should really be calling herself “Rando” instead since it is a better shortening of her name miRANDO/a

So frustrated with Carrie taking her her friend’s plastic surgery appointment and then complaining he should allow it because she had come to support him. Then DO IT and just sit there and support him Carrie instead of making everyone in the room focus on you you you because you’re so special. [/quote]
That scene totally took me back to the original show because that was so in character for Carrie.[/quote]

What? Anthony had his consult and was told he had great skin and only needed a little botox. The whole thing about the Carrie focus was acknowledgment that her face was in much worse shape in terms of aging effects, and would require far more extensive interventions to correct. If anything, it was humiliating.[/quote]
She made it all about her. That’s what rang true to the original show. In which she was regularly humiliated.[/quote]

It was a two-person consult. Anthony went first, was told he was hot and didn't really need work. Then Carrie was like, how about me? And the doctor totally tore her face apart. She didn't make it about her. She'd been brought to the consult as part of the package, and got humiliated during it - though I think she handled it really well. I think she's handling things really well overall honestly. She bought the apartment, realized she hated it, told Seema, and now they'll sell it. She is being pretty mature (maturity backed by astonishing resources, but mature).

I don’t think it was a consult for two people. Remember when the doctor started with Carrie as his focus and had to be corrected?

If the doctor really was supposed to evaluate both people, Carrie’s demand that he look at her is less selfish. But I thought she was just there as moral support. If she was, and then out the focus of the appointment on her, it’s so annoying!  But if the doctor was supposed to evaluate them both from the beginning, it’s less egregious. (But if he was, I don’t think it would have mattered who he started with, and it clearly did given his faux pas at the beginning of the appointment.)[/quote]
You are correct. She was just there for moral support. Anthony asked her to go with and talk him out of anything crazy. It wasn’t about Carrie at all until the doctor and then Carrie made it all about her.[/quote]

It was originally a 2-person consult, for Anthony and Stannie. So I don't think it's a big deal that she ended up getting a consult, which the doctor basically invited. Agree with PPs it was more humiliating for the character than anything else.[/quote]
