Horrible jokes. No mention of Steve. No real progress for any of the characters. Slow. Quiet. An annoying beep is the comic relief.

This is one of the most unnecessary episodes ever made.

A chapter a little more human and real, less superficial than the previous ones. I liked the touch of confusion of the characters, the shock to the ground to Charlotte and Harry regarding the self-appreciation of their daughters and how the issue of crisis sexuality is approached to a reality.

Honestly, I don't know why so many people doesn't like this show. I feel like their evolution as characters is so consistent. Take Miranda as an example: back in SATC it was so cute the first time she met Steve. They had a very real relationship, breaking up and coming back together a few times... when Steve had cancer she was worried even though they weren't together... When Brady was born they joined forces to raise him. Even the moment Miranda proposes to him is realistic but also cute and unexpected at the same time.

That was a happy relationship for quite a while. And that doesn't mean "forever". Every couple who divorces were once a happy relationship as well. As our lives evolves our feelings might change. Until some point that we might almost don't remember what we felt before.

In that sense, I'm simply in love about everything Miranda are becoming now (from the drinking problem to the queerness). I feel like it is all so realistic. I myself have a friend that "became" a lesbian after 40. And even now she knows she spent 4 decades as a happy straight girl. That doesnt change the fact that now she only wants to date women.

I'm saying all that just to use Miranda (who IMO had a special highlight this episode) as an example of how happy I am to see those women evolving, and changing.

After 5 so-so episodes it finally feels like the show we know and love. I have no doubt cynthia nixon directing was part of the reason for that.

Funny, heartfelt and the fashion was classic carrie. What a gift it is to have our girls back.

Can Carrie be anymore uptight? She needs toned down ad a personality. All the characters lost their personality except for Anthony, people don't lose their personalities. Carrie acts like she's 80...I don't know who Miranda is anymore, they try too hard to act. The previous episodes showed screwed up adults with screwed up kids. Cynthia Nixon is influencing the writers too much and bringing her own personal agendas to the show and it's just not recognizable as SATC. Where's Steve, where's Harry? At least they have a sense of humor. It's still awful writing and awful acting.
