...and their grandmother (literally, in the next episode) -- what are they adding to the story, might I ask? What is their connection to Carrie, Charlotte and Miranda?... I've been watching the show quite closely. But in all honesty, at this point I have no idea who they are or what their deal is -- beyond giving us a walking cliché of impossibly wealthy, successful, glamorous etc. People. Yawn. The end result is bizarre. It's like watching two separate shows somehow spliced over one another. If the idea was to celebrate diversity and all that, this is a very awkward and superficial way to do that. Ultimately, it serves no one.

Are people really complaining about sex scenes in a show called SEX and the City? An HBO production? Really?! You could not make this up. Have you all become puritans?

I was actually surprised by the nudity but I command the ladies for doing it. Why should only young people have sex scenes. That's so ageist.

Anyway, the premiere wasn't that bad. I still haven't warmed up to the new characters but it's not fair on them since the other 3 had multiple seasons of character development.

Episode description: "While Carrie questions whether she's ready for more than a casual fling, Miranda starts to worry her relationship with Che is only about sex."

Sorry to say that, but this was the worst 45 minutes of a TV Show I watched mhhh let me say in the last 25 years or so. Unbelievable bad in every way. Really I don't know where to start. Let us begin with the script: Really, I mean really? Women in their mid to end 50's behave, react an speak like they are in their 30's? This is so cringe. I had to laugh from the begining. Is this show concepted as a comedy? OK, than it works for me.

The dialogues: Sorry, really sorry I mean I don't know any women in ther mid or late 50's who are speaking in that way. It's ridicolus.

The characters: All cliches hurray. For example the gay men in this show are obvisously camp. Why?

It's all so bad. Really. Skip this show. It's a waste of your lifetime.

The last season had it's moments, but I felt very frustrated with our core characters and the loss of their long, developed personalities. I was concerned for this second season. Frankly I could not watch another season like the first, the writing was NOT great. I started this episode, the first in the second season with reticence. I was so happy to see Miranda back to being the strong intelligent woman she has always been and her development with Che, showing their vulnerability. Carrie is back too, the last 2 minutes brought a tear to my eye and it was perfection... So happy to be back in the zone, let's hope it continues.

This season feels more fun! And a bit more like the old show. I'm liking the dating and fashion Carrie is experiencing! However Miranda is still nothing like the old Miranda, she's not a smart, sharp sarcastic lawyer anymore.. just a bimbo. Also the writer won't recognize why we hate Che, they say it's cause we are bigots if we don't but it's Ches personality and character, nothing to do with their sexuality. They are not funny and frankly insufferable! Miranda and Ches relationship is the worst part of the show. However the rest of the show is waaay more fun. There are more jokes, more fashion, more fun with the characters and having fun in New York and way better romance!
