Yes, the faster we time-hop the sooner we can get to Carrie having sex or going on dates without it being Too Soon for a Widow.

Anonymous wrote:So how rich are these women supposed to be?

Carrie seems like she is very wealthy now and she did not make much money in her lifetime nor was she born rich. I imagine with the sales of her books, she probably amassed what, a net worth of a couple hundred thousand dollars?

I imagine Big funded her lifestyle with the beautiful penthouse and the upgrades to her apartment.

Miranda was in big law and a partner for a few years so I imagine she is worth 5mil. Steve owned a bar, which I’m sure was pretty successful so I’d say his net worth is somewhere in the 2-5 mil.

Charlotte recieved a million dollars from her divorce and her apartment. Harry is a partner at a law firm so he brings in 2-3 mil a year. I’d imagine their net worth is in the 15 mil or so. They do well but not enough to be on the board at the Met. Lol

Of course Carrie is wealthy because of Big. She was a moderately successful writer but she would not have some lavish lifestyle if she were single.

Miranda and Steve bought that Brooklyn brownstone that they renovated in the early 2000s. If they sold it they would have made a ton of money. It looks like they traded up-- the house doesn't look like the same layout as their old one. Miranda would be very wealthy as a law partner. I can't imagine Steve's bar did great during the pandemic but they glossed over that. It would have been interesting to explore that.

As a divorce lawyer for the wealthy I'm sure Harry is loaded, but you're right that Charlotte being on the board of the Met is a stretch. There are plenty of small art museums in New York that would have been more realistic.

I want to know why Lisa (the new cast member) is so rich. The apartment they filmed in is currently for sale by Sothebys for $23m. And that art collection…

Everyone on this show became rich through their husbands except Miranda.

Clearly family money/ trust fund. Interesting that ILs from the Carolinas though.

I think it’s obvious LTW’s husband has made a crazy amount of money in NYC. Probably finance.

LTW’s character is loosely based on Crystal McCrary McGuire, married to Ray McGuire who is the former vice chair of Citi who recently ran for mayor. Super paid.

I'm only 37 so I don't know yet but are 55 year olds really so "old"?
The women seem to hobble around, cranky and forgetful. They wince and groan when they run, walk or simply pivot. I was so glad charlee did burpees. She seemed slightly less geriatric than the rest

I don't have teen girls, so maybe that's why I was mystified by this, but "Rock" rapping about her new name on TikTok (shouldn't she be called "Rap"?) and expecting their parents to watch it also seemed unusual.

Loved the texting scene with Samantha. She needs to come back.

Was this the first time we've seen the hallway outside Carrie's apartment?

Miranda was drunk though, hence the giggling and weirdness was typical

When did she say how long it had been? I missed that.
