[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m the outlier here. There’s a lot of stress in the world and my life and I like this silly show to laugh and to remind me of some universal midlife experiences, e.g. grumpy teens, diagnoses, loneliness. Though, I’m tired of Aidan and the empty house. [/quote]

These topics can still be covered with excellent writing and acting. It is not the topics that are objectionable, it is the thrown in storylines that lead no where:

Carrie's expired license- literally served no purpose.

Carrie and Seema have lunch at the fancy restaurant in VA and they are told they have the wrong menus. What are things like this thrown in for?

[b]Scene with Lisa's son singing. Did we know he was a singer before? It went on and on and is apparently a one off topic - so odd.[/b]

Scene with Harry's dad having sex with the neighbor.

I could go on and on...topics are just thrown in and we don't hear about them again. Then add terrible acting...

So, for example, a "grumpy teen" topic could be very well done (Charlotte complains to her friends about it, complains to Harry about it, pretends to others her life is perfect but at home we see cracks in the perfection, etc.). [b]Harry's diagnosis could be very well done (we see him snap at Charlotte as he is coming to grips with possible impotence or incontinence, we see him feeling depressed when he sees even his dad can easily still have sex).[/b] [/quote]

1.  You literally have Patti Lupone and Christopher Jackson in the same room and you get lame teenager singing?  Not that having Patti or Christopher sing would make sense in anyway with the snippets we've been given, but STILL.  OK, Christopher Jackson did sing earlier this season but you could do more - he could be singing with his son to survive a terrible party, or something that works in the storyline he's been given (which is nothing so who knows).  Patti Lupone instead of cutting ANthony at the party could have walked out but before doing so grabbed the mic and just slay before walking out.  Or singing with Cantone and blowing it all away.  Anything other than Miranda pathetically asking anyone? anyone?

2.  Charlotte had a [b]literal storyline about an impotent husband[/b].  Harry represented her in that divorce.  Here's a storyline - Harry sees sex all around (including his father), recognizes his life is changing, worries about Charlotte's response and Charlotte and he have a meaningful conversation about growing old together and how strong their bond is.  Not Charlotte weeping everywhere but sure, weeping then handling with grace and a recognition of how far she's come and how deep her love is for Harry.  [/quote]
