Perfect synopsis!❤

Thiss

Great point

Exactly, she's so annoying, but I still love her in the end

I think it’s the same thing with Girls. Watched the show in my early 20s, when I was younger than the main characters and I hated them so much. Then I watched it again at 30 or 31 and I found myself being touched by the characters, and seeing my 20s struggles in them

​@@PataPtichou😅

What? Those characters are weak promiscuous modern women.

That's part of the reason I've been hating the reboot so much. They turned Miranda into that same whiny, needy, crybaby that Carrie used to be while she let Che treat her like trash. It was just so out of character and irritating to watch.

Miranda is the most miserable, angriest person ever, which is why she's always giving everyone else shit, and she mocks happy people, especially happily married women, because she's jealous. She says terrible and cruel things all the time on the show, like when she calls single dads "used" and compared dating them to chewing someone elses gum. If a man had said that to her after she had Brady, she and the other girls would have called him a pig and an asshole, but it's okay for her to say that about single fathers? And you really shouldn't have cheered when Miranda called Carrie "pathetic" in that scene. No matter how frustrated you are with your friends, you don't call someone you claim to love pathetic, especially on a show that claims your friendships are the most important thing. Miranda's love language is straight up emotional abuse, she's not someone you want to emulate. I know people who are just like Miranda and they are a goddamn nightmare to be around, so hopefully you don't identify with Miranda so much anymore, because god help your friends and family if you do.

Miranda is not exactly the definition of sanity... if anything the only woman who is admirable and barely normal amongst them is Samantha. Carrie is obsessive sociopath, Charlotte is a soulless elitist, Miranda is a misanthropic freak.

@@Choshako I don't think she was jealous of married women at all. She just wanted her friends to have interests outside of who they were dating. That's why she was mad that Carrie was so obsessed with Big. He treated her terribly and as Miranda says "you're more than happy to go back for more " She loved Carrie enough to be straight with her.

I almost think Don Draper is worse in some ways

@@prettypleasewithsugarontop4858 I agree!

Same here! I despised Walter White by the end of the series. This might be unpopular opinion but there were times where I actually sided with Skylar and thought her attitude was justified. He was a complicated character and maybe even worse or the same as some of the villians on the show. Haven't seen mad men but thinking I should give it a go!

​@danica8217 first time through, Skylar struck me as annoying and hypocritical. On rewatch, I saw how abusive Walter really was and realized she was just trying to survive.

Especially in the 90s. I feel like a lot of people of her age felt that way.

This!!! 14 videos on SATC and none about Fleabag 😫

I think they talked about Fleabag on a video about Anti-heros or adult children or something

yes but it would be nice if fleabag had a standalone video like SATC :)@@DaTa-wm5yc

It isn't on the same league

How they found each other and became friends: This is covered in flashbacks, in one of the SATC movies, the first one, I think.

😂

Yeah let’s all feign happiness about the direction and writing of this show. 🙄🙄 the writing on this show is STILL so bad it’s upsetting 😒😒🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️

Wow, you're not like other girls

Carrie had waaaaay too many expensive shoes though. Like, unless you collect antique or signed books, I doubt your habit is as financially damaging.

Don't do it; librarians have way too much customer service "community outreach" program-running and library social media platform managing in their jobs now. It's less about knowing your literature, managing your team and stock, and connecting one-on-one with patrons anymore unless you're the location manager or work in a small non-chain library. Also, being a public (not private storefront) property means dealing with a lot of a-holes, sometimes on your own, and hoping they don't get beligerent and/or violent. And the police can't do much to remove such folk unless the library is willing to formally charge them with tresspassing. Sorry to burst your bubble, but hoping to save you some trouble. Uh... no rhyme intended, there.

@lyndsaybrown8471 -- You'd be surprised... ^ ^; Them dead tree slabs can add up in cost real quick. Especially in hardcover.

This is a genuinely curious question - how were LGBT characters mistreated? The gay sidekicks like Stanford and Anthony were brilliant.

@@meliajanssen3462 Hey! Thanks for asking. :) I agree Stanford and Anthony were fabulous. Basically, the LGBTQ characters were always played for laughs. Like every time Stanford's in a scene, there's a joke about him being gay. That may not seem like much but they make his personality being gay. Like imagine if you were hanging out with friends and they couldn't stop making fun of your orientation. There's also the episode where Carrie dates a bisexual guy and is immediately turned off by him. That episode had several harmful stereotypes about bisexual people. Of course, people are entitled to their attraction preferences, but her (and her friends') reasoning for being turned off is that it's "I don't think bisexuals even exist, it seems like a layover on the way to gay town," implying that bisexuality isn't real and anyone who identified as bisexual must be closeted gay. That episode also portrayed bisexuality as a "fun thing for younger folks who like to sleep around," with the ending being all of them playing spin the bottle and Carrie leaves because she's "too old for these games." Like I didn't realize no one her age is bisexual. 😂💀 There's also that implied double standard that men can't be bisexual but women can "experiment with other women" (like Samantha mentions during thr time when she's dating Maria). Then there's the time that Samantha says she's dating a woman and her friends don't believe she's gay/bisexual. It's clear she's bisexual but they act like she "woke up lesbian" and is "doing it to piss them off." (Those are quotes from that episode.) They couldn't just be nice that she's dating someone. Then they proceed to make a ton of lesbian jokes about her. As soon as she's not straight in their eyes, she's treated with derision. Then her girlfriend Maria only wants to "take baths and talk about feelings", another stereotype about WLW based on the sexist assumption that "women are so emotional and not interested in sex like men." Then there's the episode "Cock a Doodle Doo" where Samantha calls transgender sex workers "tr*nnies" and throws water on them for existing outside her apartment. (An area that was in the process of being gentrified, technically the sex workers had been existing in that neighborhood longer than her.) She complained that she's paying a lot of money to "live in a neighborhood that's trendy by day and tr*nny by night." I think there's more examples but those are the main homophobic and transphobic moments I can think of right now. They always made it a problem for anyone to be queer aside from their "gay best friends" (which is another pervasive and demeaning trope for gay men, being treated like an accessory for the straight women and not allowed proper character arcs or 2-dimensional characters.)

@@meliajanssen3462but even what you just said: "gay sidekicks" They were treated as stereotypical accessories to make the plot gay friendly and humurous

Aidan was just another flavour of control freak.

true! i love this channel and SATC but there's a lot more out there

The Sopranos!! I'd binge on a whole series of trying to figure out every character!😂

@@brittyh428highly recommend Bully Whispers and PureKino for Sopranos content!

True Blood needs some love too

That is my favorite show in the world.

It’s an amazing show enjoy

Where are you watching it? I also wanna start

@@LumpySpaceJenny hbo

@@LumpySpaceJenny I’m watching it on Hulu where only the last half of season 5 and the first 16 episodes of season 6 are available

Sí, y cosas de fuera de Estados Unidos. El otro día con mi pareja veíamos otro video de este canal, sobre la representación LGBT en el cine y el comentario fué: "Eso les pasa porque no vieron las películas de Almodóvar en los 90". Cuando vean fuera de su frontera van a descubrir todo un mundo de cine y televisión.

Because A) Hollywood lacks original ideas, and B) TV series are effectively paid by ad spots, whereas films have to be supported by viewers paying to see the movie in theaters or on streamers. Have you not noticed that NO ONE goes to the theatre anymore these days aside from comic lovers and geriatric retirees? That's the answer to your question.

If conservative means treating other humans as less than then there is absolutely EVERYTHING wrong with being conservative

The only thing worse than someone sitting on the fence as atrocities happen is the cons actively pushing for atrocities.

The world is already divided by politics and ideology, and no one group believes that more than conservatives. Because everybody knows that the only people they have a vested interest in "conserving" is straight Christian white people and nobody else. Positioning yourself as "middle of the road" in that reality is the same as openly embracing white nationalism without wearing the white hood.

Media l

Sadly no there arent. There are many bad copies of that show but we haven’t gotten something better than this yet. I want a younger reboot though. Four new friends in the city. The gossip girl reboot did right on keeping just the setting of the show with new story and cast Just got the wrong script and cast. I applauded first the idea of the reboot with a new group irs just ughh they messed it up with the new group and the stiffy scrpit. The scrpit felt so stiff and so was the new cast but on paper going with a whole new story and leads was the right path. Sex and the city needed a new foursome of friends not a continuation of the old one. How to make it fresh well this time make the the female characters younger and yeah maybe more typical pretty. And yes keep the sterotype or arquerype personalities its what worked the first time Too bad im not a,tv priducer id like to recreate sex and the city with a new foursome of friends . Same arquetypes just younger this time.

Lol

Yeah totally agree there are so many shows that deserve a video like six feet under or banshee
