WILLIE GARSON IS DEAD TO ME!!!

Did he finish filming his SATC scenes???

Think SJP is still so self-involved she didn't learn from the Cattrall dustup?

by Anonymousreply 1September 22, 2021 1:07 AM

Seems like he did finish filming, OP

[quote]“The ‘Sex and the City’ family has lost one of its own. Our amazing Willie Garson,” Michael Patrick King, the executive producer of “SATC” and “And Just Like That,” said in a statement. “His spirit and his dedication to his craft was present every day filming ‘And Just Like That.’ He was there — giving us his all — even while he was sick. His multitude of gifts as an actor and person will be missed by everyone. In this sad, dark moment we are comforted by our memory of his joy and light.”

He was always straight. My stepdad met him back before he was on SATC during the early 90s more than once. Years later he saw him on SATC in passing because my mother watched it and he said “he’s playing a f*g? He’s straight. I met him numerous times around 1992/1993”. I said ITS CALLED ACTING.

I still haven’t wrapped my head around a world without you in it- where I can’t call you when I need to laugh, or be inspired. The last thing you did when we said goodbye was pull down your mask (I hate covid), smile, and wink at me. I know that it wasn’t reflective of the pain you were going through, but it was indicative of everything you were and are to me: some one who lifted me up, who made me better, and who always, always made me smile. This also reminded me how strong our White Collar family is. We were all there for Willie, and for each other. I love you forever Willie Garson. You live on in our hearts and minds always: and your White Collar family is always here for Nathen. Save a place for me, because you know I want to be at your table up there.

When Kim Cattrall read the script, she discovered her 60+ character would be sexting Miranda’s teenage son, Brody Hobbes Brody.

She asked if that could be changed. The producers declined. So Kim declined to take the role.

That’s not so much “wicked” as “sane” to me, but YMMV.

Why does everyone have to fixate on whether the gay characters we see on tv count as ‘stereotypes’? They share character associations with gay people we all are or know in real life, the only reason these are called stereotypes is because straight society has taught us that these characteristics are to be embarrassed about or ashamed of, once you change your thinking of that it won’t bother you so much.

SJP just put out a huge "in memoriam" for her favorite shoe salesman, so she wants to finish milking that and then she'll release her statement so she can have back to back sympathy for her losses. Also the writer she normally uses is on vacation.

by Anonymousreply 145September 22, 2021 10:20 PM

In memoriam social posts are, at best, a way of informing folks that someone had died and a nice gesture and, at worst, performative.

Better that she should be supporting his son and other survivors at this time.

It's weird that you think that's the only thing he ever did.

He was a staple on TV for decades. NYPD Blue, Touched by an Angel, Mr. Belvadere, Newheart, My Two Dads, Star Trek Voyager, Melrose Place, etc.

Character actor, yes but he worked constantly.

I remember him back on Quantum Leap a couple of times from when I was a child and all of that was before SATC or even White Collar.

He will be missed.

Still nothing.

I find it wild that she couldn't have at least posted something that said she was still processing and would be making a full statement later. She's been in the public eye a long time; she knows how to handle this. She just published a huge in memoriam for her favorite shoe salesman, of all people.

I don't really care about celebrities publicly mourning alleged friends and coworkers. It's just hypocritical to do it at the drop of a hat, publicly, all the time, and then suddenly lose your voice when you've created an expectation.

I don't actually care about Sex and the City that much, I haven't even seen the two movies. The show was good at the time but got tiresome the last few seasons, I think when SJP more fully took it over (as seems to happen a lot in shows with a primary star). And I didn't really a strong opinion on SJP except that she seemed like a bit of a diva and prone to cliquish behavior (based on the published gossip I'd read occasionally as well as the fact that she seems to have really, really hurt Kim Cattrall privately, but only made attempts to smooth things over in public).

I'm just wondering how they're going to explain his character's sudden absence on the heels of 1) Carrie's divorce from Big and 2) Samantha's absence, which is most likely a death from cancer, if online sources are to be believed.

Noth seemed credible to me when he commented that he was adamant about not returning. But then he veered into rote publicity-speak when he said that the producers insisted he read the script and after he read it he was sold on appearing.

I translate that to, "I asked for Big Dough-Ray-mee and got it" and he also may have insisted, before he signed it, that his contract promise his character would be killed off.
