My thoughts... I felt slightly emotional when Samantha come on screen.
I think that was Aidan’s ultimate revenge for everything she put put him through. 5 years? He definitely is a comic.
Loved Charlotte’s sass but still upset with the acting.
Why can’t Miranda accept that her and Steve didn’t work out but they did have some good years, even being nice to him she was still hard faced and he had to tell her. Recently watched season 6 and they were so cute together.
Cringed at Nya flirting but hope she has a fabulous time with the chef.
 
Just watched the finale and haven’t read the other posts yet but agreeing to wAiT 5 years for Aidan! 5 years!!!!! duck off!! Worst ending to a series ever.
Also heard there’s going to be a series 3! Hell no! There is no need. Where are they going to take it from there?? There is nothing more to say about any of those characters.

Ah lads, I can't with this show anymore!

That should have been the end - no third series.

**Sigh** Ok here we go!

Samantha - We knew it was going to be an anticlimax so no surprises there. We hear in Season 1 that Carrie and Sam are no longer friends and something to the effect that after Carrie had no more PR work for Sam she ditched her. "Was I just and ATM to her??" Bullshit - that is so not Sam. Then Big dies and Sam does not make the trip from London to support her friend of 30 years. She sends flowers and we are expected to believe that - fine. Fast forward to this episode. Having never/hardly been mentioned Sam rings Carrie out of the blue and Carrie does not look surprised to see Samantha's name come up on her screen. (and just "Samantha" not "Samantha London" - we all know that if your friend has moved country you put their new number in like that because you still have the old number). What is Sam ringing for? She was flying from London to New York to say goodbye to an apartment and going back the next morning - duck off!!! duck off all you stupid writers.

So Miranda and Charlotte told her about the dinner. Are we expected to believe that they are in touch with her? We've never heard a mention of that! Are they keeping the friendship from Carrie? If they are not in contact, why was this bleeping dinner so important that they had to contact her to tell her about it. And what if Aidan had turned up for dinner - would there have been room for Sam? That dining room furniture I presume was rented along with the dishes, and everything for the table. How embarrassing would it have been for Sam to show up - Surprise! and then everyone looking awkwardly at each other because there is no room at the table. Would Sam have been sitting on the bed eating out of one of Carrie's shoe

Dinner Party Guests - I won't dwell on this but as we have all said that the biggest collection of nobodies ever. Surely in 35 years in New York Carrie could have got 15 intelligent and interesting women together.
Some guy she worked on a podcast with last season - why?
Nya - have they ever been in the same room together?
LWT - Carrie was invited to her dinner for some bizarre reason. She is Charlotte's friend from their kid's school. And why did Carrie get her invite when the husband forgot to send them?
Che?????
That guestlist was bullshit. It would have been a lovely way to bring back old characters and create nostalgia.

Aidan - Awh Adian. What the duck have they done to Aidan? His teenage kid throws a strop and he falls apart. He effectively dumped Carrie needlessly. duck off Aidan. Where does a teenage kid get mushrooms? Are you for real? They probably grow on your farm. Why do you think 3 teenage kids want to hang out there all the time? They are off their heads all the time on the magic farm 😃Asking Carrie to wait 5 years? Are you gonna live like a monk for 5 years.... duck off!

Sex Montage - Did that episode really contain a sex montage? Why?

Charlotte and Miranda - great to see them getting back to who they are. I love Charlotte and Harry.

Seema - no way is she the new Sam the way she is fawning over that loser. Is she really going along with Carrie waiting for Aidan? We all know what Sam would have said about that!

And that brings me to Carrie! I dislike her so much. She is a selfish, whiney witch. So she chased Big for 6 years then was married to him for the bones of 20 years but somehow got over to him in a year. So much so that she could fall in love again and question if he was a mistake! Then she is prepared to wait 5 years for Aidan after a year together, if even. Please!

The writers, producers, and SJP should be ashamed of themselves with this ridiculous show. They have ruined what was something very special.

Rant over!

Was it just me or did anyone else think Miranda was going to fall down the stairs coming out of Carrie's apartment and have a tragic accident? 😂 maybe she could have broken her hip and Carrie could have gotten fingerblasted in HER kitchen while she pisses herself. Although this would require Miranda to have a kitchen 🤣

I felt there was something bad going to happen to Miranda in this scene too. When she hailed the taxi I wondered if it was a real taxi driver and whether she was about to be murdered by a serial killer. Then I remembered it’s AJLT not SVU and realised it was wishful thinking.
 
Carrie acting maternal with the little cat was weird - are we supposed to think she's grown as a character?
Anthony's expression was inappropriate as was that whole story arc
Seema's hat was duck-ugly
That beach looked cold and it was blustery as feck - they should have gone to Ballybunion or Lahinch if it was that kind of weather they were after
Hated Nya's overly aggressive public flirting
The napkins were a bit extra even for Carrie
I warmed to the LTWs in this episode
Lisette and Che had more interesting chemistry than bald lady/person and Che
Is that the first time we've had Carrie/SJP topless/naked scenes?

Something just occurred to me.

Samantha was going to do a round trip, London to New York, just to spend a few hours at a dinner party to say goodbye to A FLAT!

Samantha did not do a trip to say goodbye to Big, who actually proper died.

Are we supposed to believe that tit!

Yes indeed, to say goodbye to a flat she never lived in and very rarely stepped foot in actually, if I'm remembering the original series correctly.
The whole dinner party idea was stupid and I hate that sort of overworked wanky food anyway "eat the green olive first, then the black one, then lick the little spoon" pop off back to the kitchen love, let us enjoy our meal please 🙄
 
Well after the Samantha scene I actually said out loud “was that it!!!” She’s still a queen though
Still don’t care about the hangers on why do we need them?
Aiden naked was absolutely awful I wish I could I unsee it. However well played on asking Carrie to wait around for 5 years !
The Miranda BBC thing seemed so weird and shoehorned in, kept waiting for drama or something. Just weird.
I love Anthony but didn’t need to see him pop his butt cherry!!
The only one who came out of this whole tit show well was Shoe . Maybe S3 will follow shoe and it’s adventures in New York!
 
So, what is everyone’s hopes for season 3?

- Che gone!
- Aidan gone!
- Miranda to stop being a sap
- Sassy / drunk Charlotte to make more appearances
- Lisette to have more storylines
- Little kitten Shoe to survive
- Seema’s scarecrow hat to never see the light of day again!

The list could go on and on….
