Miranda, studying for a Master of Human Rights degree, nervously blunders meeting her younger classmates and the professor, Nya Wallace, an African-American woman. Also, Miranda and Steve have reluctantly allowed 17-year-old son, Brady, and girlfriend, Luisa, to have sleepovers and now endure their noisy sex. Continually stressed, Miranda copes with alcohol. Charlotte and Harry dote on their teen daughters: musically accomplished Lily and independent-minded Rose.

Production

Development

In December 2016, Radar Online reported that a script for a third Sex and the City film had been approved.[3] However, on September 28, 2017, Sarah Jessica Parker confirmed that the third film was not going to happen. She said, "We had this beautiful, funny, heartbreaking, joyful, very relatable script and story. It's not just disappointing that we don't get to tell the story and have that experience, but more so for that audience that has been so vocal in wanting another movie."[4] It was reported in 2018 that Kim Cattrall did not want to return as Samantha Jones in the film due to disagreeing with its planned storylines, involving killing off Mr. Big and Samantha receiving sexting and nude pictures from Miranda's 14-year-old son, Brady.[5] Cattrall later clarified in 2019 that she opted not to appear in a third film, explaining she "went past the finish line" portraying the character of Samantha because of her love for the franchise.[6]

In December 2020, it was reported that the proposed third film's script had been redeveloped as a miniseries revival of the original Sex and the City television series in development at HBO Max, without Cattrall returning as Samantha, in line with her previous comments.[7][8] In January 2021, And Just Like That... was confirmed by HBO Max as a series which would consist of 10 episodes.[9] In February 2021, Samantha Irby, Rachna Fruchbom, Keli Goff, Julie Rottenberg and Elisa Zuritsky joined the series as part of the writing team. Rotternberg and Zuritsky also serve as executive producers.[10] It was also confirmed that long-time series costume designer and collaborator Patricia Field would not be returning to work on the revival. However, she recommended her friend and colleague Molly Rogers to the creative team for consultation.[11][12] The series premiered on December 9, 2021, with the first two episodes available immediately and the rest debuting on a weekly basis until the season finale on February 3, 2022.[13][14] On March 22, 2022, HBO Max renewed the series for a second season.[15]

Casting

Upon the series order announcement, Sarah Jessica Parker, Cynthia Nixon, and Kristin Davis were reprising their roles as close friends living in New York City.[9] In May 2021, Sara Ramírez was cast as a series regular, while Chris Noth was cast to reprise his role in an undisclosed capacity.[16][17] On June 9, 2021, Mario Cantone, Willie Garson, David Eigenberg, and Evan Handler all joined the cast to reprise their respective roles in undisclosed capacities.[18] In July 2021, Sarita Choudhury, Nicole Ari Parker, Karen Pittman, and Isaac Cole Powell joined the cast in starring roles while Alexa Swinton, Cree Cicchino, Niall Cunningham, and Cathy Ang were cast in undisclosed capacities and Brenda Vaccaro and Ivan Hernandez were cast in recurring roles.[19][20][21][22][23] In August 2021, Julie Halston was cast to reprise her role in a guest-starring capacity while Christopher Jackson and LeRoy McClain were cast in recurring roles.[24][25] Willie Garson, who played Stanford Blatch throughout Sex And The City and reprised his role in the new series, died on September 21, only three months after his return, after filming his scenes for the series' first three episodes. The new series explained his absence via a letter to Carrie in episode four.[26] On November 8, 2021, Bobby Lee announced on an Instagram post that he has a small role in the revival.[27]

Despite Mr. Big dying in the first episode, Noth was set to appear as Big in a fantasy sequence in the season finale, but he was edited out after sexual assault allegations were brought against him.[28]

On August 19, 2022, John Corbett was cast to reprise his role as Aidan Shaw in a recurring capacity for the second season.[1] On October 18, 2022, Tony Danza joined the cast in a recurring role as Che's father.[2]

Filming

Production began in June 2021 in New York City.[17][29] The first table read was held on June 11, 2021, at the show's studio in Manhattan.[30] Filming had commenced on location in New York City by July 9, 2021, and was commemorated by the release of a promotional photo of Parker, Nixon and Davis on the streets of Manhattan.[31] To mislead speculation about a major plot line, Noth arrived on location the day his character's funeral was filmed.[32] On October 11, 2021, it was reported that filming had taken place on location in Paris, France.[33] Filming concluded on December 6, 2021.[34] Filming for the second season began on October 4, 2022 in New York City.[35]

Reception

Audience viewership

Despite HBO Max not revealing subscriber viewership for its original programming, And Just Like That... was announced to have delivered the service's most-watched series debut to date,[36] including both HBO and HBO Max originals premiered on the service. The series placed within the service's top 10 most-watched premieres including film debuts. The series was the most-watched first viewing in the service's history, implying that new subscribers enlisted to watch the series.[36]

Critical response

The review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes reported a 48% approval rating with an average rating of 5.5/10 based on 79 critic reviews. The website's critics consensus reads, "And Just Like That... fails to recapture Sex and the City's heady fizz, but like a fine wine, these characters have developed subtler depths with age."[37] Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned a score of 55 out of 100 based on 33 critics, indicating "mixed or average reviews".[38] The New York Times review, while stating that the show "in moments is very good," described it as "painful" and "part dramedy about heartbreak, part awkward bid at relevance," writing "when you are [reviving] a series there is the fatal danger of losing your touch. And there you have 'And Just Like That'."[39]

The themes of diversity and social justice were criticized. The Telegraph described it as "tediously woke",[40] and the Radio Times wrote: "The main three's newfound social and cultural awareness is shoe-horned in to such a degree the whole endeavour feels often cloying.'"[41] Deadline Hollywood wrote that "far too many 2021 cultural touchstones and new characters are awkwardly parachuted into [the show] ... as if to check a box".[42] EmpireOnline added: "the attempts to paint a rich, real, diverse world are ham-fisted, inauthentic and riddled with self-consciousness, awkwardness and moments of self-congratulation."[43] Specifically, the character of Che Díaz was derided heavily online and has been considered to be one of the worst characters in television history.[44][45][46][47] Kristin Corry of Vice Media criticized the tokenization of Black characters, writing "The 'Sex and the City' reboot wants to undo its colorblind legacy by including Black characters. Unfortunately, they're treated as luxury accessories."[48]

Response from Peloton

After the episode in which Chris Noth's character dies following a Peloton bike workout, the stock for the company dropped significantly.[49] The company issued a statement through Dr. Suzanne Steinbaum, a cardiologist and member of the company's health and wellness advisory, saying that they agreed to the product placement but were not aware of how it would be used in the pivotal scene. The statement also said not to blame the company for the character's death, and cited some contributing factors, such as his lifestyle (e.g., his consumption of steaks and cigars) and a cardiac surgery in a previous season.[50] Three days after the episode aired, the company released an ad, featuring Chris Noth and narrated by Ryan Reynolds, with Reynolds quickly citing the benefits of cycling and ending with "He's alive."[51] Four days later, the ad was removed after sexual assault allegations were reported against Chris Noth.[52]

Accolades

The series was given the Seal of Authentic Representation from the Ruderman Family Foundation for the portrayal of Steve Brady by David Eigenberg, and Chloe by Ali Stroker, as actors with disabilities and at least five lines of dialogue.[53] The series was recognized with The ReFrame Stamp for hiring people of underrepresented gender identities, and of color.[54]

Other media
