I'd sorry she's been saddled with all these controversies. Too bad her detractors can't be reined in. But I have no doubt she'll eventually clear these hurdles.

She's really bridling at the criticism!

As a Gen X looking at Gen Z - I often feel like Rizzo in Grease looking at Sandy - that little goodie two shoes makes me want to barf!

Bunch of no-sex, no drinking, no talking, no dancing kids in mom jeans and broccoli hair getting pissed off and yelling GROOMER when there's more than an 18 month age gap in a relationship.

Barf indeed.

They’re all wearing “Kendrick” jeans now, r5.

They’re not bad.

What's with that horrible fake tan--what bronzer does she use?

You’re too old for that hair, honey.

Shut up Seabiscuit. She’s an annoying cunt, she hates that the world doesn’t adore her bony ass.

R9 - well Gen X were accused of being apathetic and 'slackers' - spot on about apathy and being cynical and not accurate about being a slacker which time has shown.

Nobody accused us of having no fun, being prudes, not socializing and being scolds. And Gen X didn't need hand holding for ANYTHING.

R2, took me a minute. Then I laughed. Bless you, via whatever system won't trigger anything! XO

As always, she talks about her work pretty much in terms of how she and the show are huge brands.

Just keep cashing the checks, hon. You'll feel better.

I like her and always have.

R19 - I'm with you. She's self-aware and doesn't take herself or anything she does too seriously. She has never come across as pompous.

R21 is a bitter Miranda who always wanted to be a Carrie, but never had the looks or charm.

You may want to apply a bit of honey or salt to cut down your bitter taste.

Miranda was actually cuter than Carrie before she became insufferable.

R26 We should have picked up on Miranda's lesbianism when she was with girly man Skipper.

Skipper had a 10 inch beer can schlong, didn't you realize that?

Yes, the show Sex And The City was a factor in the gentrification of Bleecker Street and the Meatpacking District. But she didn't write the stories of the show, she portrayed a character in it. And nobody foresaw that it would lure tourists by the droves and accelerate the gentrification of those neighborhoods. Mayor Bloomberg's community boards changing the zoning laws were the primary factor.

The way she has clung to this show like a raft you would think it was her creation. She even got pissed over The Carrie Diaries TV show and someone else (younger) playing that character. I think she should hear those words more than anyone else.

Honestly, she was a much more interesting actress prior to SATC. Pretty much everything she's done then has been variation of Carrie. And Matt Broderick has turned into a sexless frump.

by Anonymousreply 32June 7, 2025 2:02 AM

When has Matt Broderick ever been anything but a sexless frump?

by Anonymousreply 33June 7, 2025 2:05 AM

As she’s gotten older, she’s embraced this flibbertigibbet persona in interviews where she is excruciatingly grandiloquent and obsequiously polite to all. Meanwhile, she’s an actual pain in the ass to deal with behind the scenes despite this polite persona. It’s an insidious sort of difficult.

OH. MY. GOD!

She has the audacity to not be beautiful! To not get plastic surgery! How dare she! She deserves to be kicked and shamed for having a long face resembling a horse, a thing surely in her control.

Maybe if we keep mocking her she will read this and gallop away! How very dare she resemble a horse!

Everyone on here is flawless and would make a better, BEAUTIFUL Carrie Bradshaw.
