Probably as a favor to SJP. SJP was set to portray Gloria in Lovelace, but her part ended up being cut. I'm sure they've met in NYC a number of times over the years.
I didn't realize until watching this episode that she has Parkinson's. It was still nice to see her on camera - and I thought that whole party scene was pretty funny.
I liked this episode overall. That threesome scene sure made threesomes look unappealing.
^ And actually maybe she doesn't have PD. I googled it yesterday after watching the ep and thought I saw she did, but I can't find any info today. So that might be me making stuff up.

Bitsy fit into this episode perfectly IMO even though I felt she was shoehorned into the last one.
If LTW’s husband runs for city comptroller, can he go up against John Slattery in the primary? Just putting that out into the universe.

Seriously what is the point? Woohoo you enjoy sex, so do most people, no need to broadcast your kink as if someone should envy you. I know people like this and I don’t get it. Seems like they’re trying to convince themselves and mask bigger issues.Anonymous wrote:I agree the storyline with Miranda and Che is totally plausible and realistic. And also that it's incredibly cringey and hard to watch and makes Miranda a very difficult-to-like character.
Like every single thing that happens in that relationship makes me want to throw something at the TV, but is also believable to me. Because realistically, if you came out for the first time in your 50s, the odds that your first relationship would be with someone self-centered who might wind up using you or engaging in emotional abuse is actually pretty high. Miranda's in a super vulnerable position, and the dating pool for her is sort of weird and not huge and also totally foreign to her. Of COURSE she's going to wind up with some narcissist who is bad at commitment, boundary violating, and arrogant/condescending. Tale as old as time.
When Che in their ex-husband were sitting around talking about their marriage, sex lives, and experiments with polyamory, my eyes involuntarily rolled all the way back in my head. Because I know people like this. Who act like their sex lives are some kind of cultural monument (talking about how being for a hot minute like 10 years ago was "exploring new frontiers" of relationships or sex), or who reminisce about strap ons and peggings in front of a new sig.o. and her friend who is obviously super uncomfortable with that conversation. It's classic. Just pure narcissism.
It's realistic. It's horrible. I watch it but I hate it but also they did their research.
I bet you anything Che is based on a real person, or an amalgamation of people the writers on this show have known. They are just extremely... accurate.

They've airways had a healthy sex life. I liked seeing Chatlottes stomach rolls.
Honestly, I did not even notice them.
The facial fillers are not good, but she is still a reasonably attractive middle aged woman.
Not just reasonably attractive, but #3 on the MILF list
I thought she cooled it with the fillers, doesn’t look too crazy now.
The fillers are insane. They are a good PSA for avoiding fillers, no matter how tempting.
