Season 4, Episode 9: Sex and the Country

Carrie has to go to Aidan's country house in Suffern, NY. Steve has testicular cancer. Big is dating a movie star. The movie star sets us up for the dipshittery of the next episode, which I can't wait to break down. Carrie definitely shows how she's a coward and has no spine and is the … Continue reading Season 4, Episode 9: Sex and the Country →

Season 4, Episode 8: My Motherboard, My Self

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 3, Episode 10: All or Nothing

I really struggled to write this one because this episode is bullshit and so is the opening voice over when Carrie is talking about how great her relationship is with Aidan (She describes it as so comfortable she can leave it for an evening; I’m sorry, how is that different from when she fucked Big … Continue reading Season 3, Episode 10: All or Nothing →

Season 3, Episode 9: Easy Come, Easy Go

This episode is the worst of the worst. Miranda and Steve are broken up, Charlotte proposes to herself, and Carrie...well, WE ALL KNOW WHAT CARRIE DOES. Carrie and Aidan are at the opening day of the new designer’s showcase (some furniture show). She’s his Booth Bitch. While they are discussing her role in the booth … Continue reading Season 3, Episode 9: Easy Come, Easy Go →

Season 3, Episode 7: Drama Queens

Carrie and Aidan have been dating for three weeks (and they are apparently already spending almost every night together?) at this point and she’s having night terrors because of her drama-free relationship. And this is the episode where Charlotte goes insane trying to get set up with the bachelor friend of a married man she … Continue reading Season 3, Episode 7: Drama Queens →

Season 3, Episode 5: No Ifs, Ands, or Butts

Oh gosh. The first Aidan episode. The first of many where Carrie is the liar with the fiery pants, a hypocrite, a monster, a person who deserves all the bad karma that comes to her at the end of the season. This is when my material for reasons why she is the worst will increase … Continue reading Season 3, Episode 5: No Ifs, Ands, or Butts →
