I didn’t see any full frontal. I watched on the HBO Max app


When she went to drop off brownies at the downstairs neighbor. The boyfriend answered the door in a towel and he dropped the towel.

I hear you. Does she actually have millions though? Why can't she just get a classic-6 on the UES or something? I posted upthread about money and her closet. I really liked this episode-- thought it was well written. Loved the Grey Gardens reference with Carrie's smoking outfits.

The racks of clothing in her apartment highlighted this for me... I mean, is she really going to "archive" all of her clothes and shoes?




If Natasha was left $1m, Carrie was left millions (probably ~$5-10m) plus the money from selling the apartment. Which is good, since her income seems unsteady at best. She'd be foolish not to archive her designer wardrobe, which is her most significant asset other than the apartment. Worth at least $100k, and the real true love of her life!


Wayyyy more. Remember, she had $40K in just shoes back in the early oughts.


How much can $40k of shoes from 20 years ago be worth? Mostly worn? Not a ton.


Not the cheap crap you wear from Payless, she had designer shoes -- Manolo, Jimmy Choos and such. But the point is if she had $40K worth of SHOES in the early oughts her wardrobe wasn't inexpensive then and she didn't just suddenly start buying Old Navy tops. She has spent a lifetime buying fashionable shoes, handbags, clothes and all of that is likely to be worth way more than $100K.



Yes, and each item worn a mere handful of times (if that) and immaculately conserved.


"Immaculate conserved"? In a smoker's apartment?

No, he didn’t, but he won’t be alone for long. And it would be doing him a favor to free him to partner with someone who really loves him rather than always resorting to seeing him as “less than.”


I watched it on HBO max and def caught the dangle bounce.

He should have stayed with Debbie and Miranda with Robert.

Apple has always had product placement in the show.


Yup. Watch the first seasons and every episode has a shot of Carrie on her bed with her laptop taking up almost the entire frame and the apple logo glowing.


Yep.

Very expensive show to produce, hence all the new non-fashiony product placements.

It’s worth nothing.

Even back then when they were new they couldn’t be used as collateral because they were used shoes. The 40K figure was just to show how Carrie had blown her money and had no savings.
