I think you know the answer to that, lol. She needs to get back to sex columns, and hopefully she will. Would be amazing to have a single 50-something perspective on that!

Huh, just learned the Duncan actor is married to the amazing Julianne Nicholson (who I truly hope wins the Emmy for her 'Dance Mom' character).

Yes, I re-watched the OG one this week in fact.

Ive noticed a general sentiment in other discussions that this was a finally good episode and more like SaTC but that’s only because they got rid of a character nobody liked. The other women had only one scene (CHarlotte got to fall on the floor for her 30 seconds of screen time), it was terribly edited as usual and way way too short. This is a bad show. Badly written, badly edited, bad everything.

I find it hard to even offer commentary since the writing is so bad that nothing feels organic. Sure, I’m glad they broke up—they made home a total d*ck—but they never would have gotten back together in the first place (or in the movie). She’d probably need to talk openly about her love for Big and their life together, and that would be painful for him, given their history. And let’s just say Aidan grows into this person who is mature enough to get over that she married Big—how is then so immature that he can’t deal with Duncan or smoke smell. It’s all incongruous, so how can anyone do a character deep dive with any meaning? I can’t, other than to say, yup another episode with bad writing.

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?

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.

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.). 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).


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 literal storyline about an impotent husband. 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.


It’s not about the singing. It’s the teenager embarrassing you in front of your friends. It was all about Lisa and her husband. Charlotte had to drag her daughter along and she was moping, the only one who liked his terrible singing. I guess everyone here doesn’t have teens or have unicorns, so can’t relate. I have been that parent.

The breakup scene was excellent, except she’d have yelled at him about sleeping with his ex and he’s have yelled at her that she was never going to even tell him she never planned to not sleep with others. That was a major issue that happened. They made it seem like his trust issues were only related to what she did years ago. The fact that she never told him it would be an open relationship was a major issue (as was his cheating). No way they breakup without this being a part of the final conversation.

What’s up with the odd Andy Cohen cameo?

I have ragged on this show a LOT and overall it’s not good but I have to hand it to them for that breakup scene which was really well done.

Every interview with the writers makes them appear genuinely cluelessly self-satisfied! People are talking about the show! Yes...about how bad it is.

what clients ever go to a real estate agents office? I have never been to mine

a private driver for clients of her caliber seems more relevant and even then she would only need that a few times a week max



I think high net worth clients would expect to meet in an office at points during the process. Now her claim that it was cheap is ridiculous.


High net worth clients are busy and she would meet at their offices.

Its NYC - busy busy Wall Street guy is not coming to midtown office to sign papers (now all done digitally anyway) to discuss what they want (also done via the phone; in their offices in between meetings or on zoom).



Or at a restaurant. The money she spent on the office would be better spent taking clients out to lunch or having a personal driver. She likely does need an office and some staff to handle the paperwork side, but it could be much smaller and doesn't need to look cool or impressive.

TBH, that office would not actually look impressive to any of the clients at her level anyway. It absolutely looked like a We Work.


Right? Also staff, she needs one person to help her.

I didn't get why she had a private driver for her personal needs. This idea that she is some fancy business woman when she barely has a pot to piss in. She thought she could get a loan on her name - ummmm she works in real estate does she have zero idea of the finance side of it.

Also at her age and doing this for so long why isn't she a broker?

How so? (I hardly remember the series final ep)
