I just want to get this episode over with because Miranda's mom dies and Carrie is really mean to Aidan. Outside of her being mean to Aidan, though, I have very little to work with because she's actually very supportive of Miranda and for once doesn't turn this into something about her. Don't worry, the … Continue reading Season 4, Episode 8: My Motherboard, My Self

Season 4, Episode 7: Time and Punishment
We have arrived at the YOU HAVE TO FORGIVE ME episode. There is a lot going on here, which makes up for the next episode where I have far less to work with. Carrie and Aidan are fucking when Big calls to leave a message on her machine. It could not be more awkward, although … Continue reading Season 4, Episode 7: Time and Punishment
Season 4, Episode 6: Baby, Talk Is Cheap
I hate, hate, HATE this episode. Carrie and Aidan get back together. She doesn't deserve a second chance! We open with her calling Aidan and hanging up on his machine and then wondering what it could possibly mean that she wants to talk to him again. Ummmm? (I just really wanted to use this GIF...it … Continue reading Season 4, Episode 6: Baby, Talk Is Cheap
Season 4, Episode 5: Ghost Town
Oh man, this episode kicks off the NO AIDAN, PLEASE RUN portion of the season. Seriously, why does this happen? UGH. ANYWAY. Miranda runs in to Steve outside a coffee shop and he informs her he's opening his own bar. PAUSE: First of all, I LOVE STEVE. He is always genuinely happy to see Miranda … Continue reading Season 4, Episode 5: Ghost Town
Season 4, Episode 4: What’s Sex Got to Do with It?
Ugh. One of my least favorite episodes. It is mostly unforgettable and involves longer story arcs for everyone so we have less opportunities to trash on Carrie, but don't worry! There are still a few reasons! Carrie is at Ray King's apartment in Queens listening to jazz while he chops vegetables like a maniac. He … Continue reading Season 4, Episode 4: What’s Sex Got to Do with It?
Season 4, Episode 3: Defining Moments
This episode is bullshit and so are Carrie and Big. At the beginning, they are out together at a bar (Monkey Bar, we later find out) and look like they are dressed up for prom even though they are out as "just friends". They will NEVER be just friends and we all know it. Anyway, … Continue reading Season 4, Episode 3: Defining Moments
Season 4, Episode 2: The Real Me
Quick side note before we get to it - I can no longer take screen shots of the video as I am watching (HBO restriction from what the Googles tell me), so I either have to find the episode clips on You Tube and take one or get a picture I want off the Googles. … Continue reading Season 4, Episode 2: The Real Me
Season 4, Episode 1: The Agony and the ‘Ex’-tacy
Before we even get started on why Carrie Bradshaw is the worst, we need to discuss Charlotte. Actually first we need to discuss why Carrie's jacket portion of her outfit in the opening scene reminds me of The Count from Sesame Street. Okay, anyway, back to Charlotte. She is wearing her engagement/wedding rings again (I … Continue reading Season 4, Episode 1: The Agony and the ‘Ex’-tacy
Season 3, Episode 18: Cock a Doodle Do
This season's finale is whatever. Carrie can't differentiate between chickens and roosters no matter how many times she's corrected. Samantha has issues with the pre-op transsexual hookers always outside her window at 4am. Charlotte is obsessing about Trey. And then the whole Carrie/Miranda fight...well, let's just get to it and close out season three with … Continue reading Season 3, Episode 18: Cock a Doodle Do
Season 3, Episode 17: What Goes Around Comes Around
Ahhhhh Karma finally comes to get Carrie in this episode and it is MINOR compared to what she put Aidan and Natasha through but she pulls the woe-is-me crap the whole fucking episode as if she is somehow a victim. We actually open with Charlotte and her in-laws at some mansion in CT. Boring! That … Continue reading Season 3, Episode 17: What Goes Around Comes Around
