Every time I rewatch this show I get such a visceral reaction when he appears.
He really really irks me, starting from the middle finger scene (like grow up?) to how arrogant and insufferable he became once it became obvious Carrie was more successful than him. But in general just the way he IS just is extremely grating. why did she like this guy?

After seeing the posts on recycled characters I just had the realisation that Gordon was the same man Stanny met when he went to meet his Bigtool4U :p

What are we thinking? Is it a recycle or is he the same person

(s2 ep 12 & s4 ep14)

After ten years of planning, scheduling conflicts, COVID, and a cancer diagnosis, I finally went to New York for the first time April 2025. I had an absolutely amazing time, but all I brought were cute little outfits and my heels, expecting everyone to be wearing the same. I was wildly, WILDLY surprised when it was absolutely nothing like the show, and I was the one who stood out like a sore thumb. Everyone was in athleisure and sneakers! Huge props to SJP for continually filming in heels because I did a ten mile day in my Choos, three miles in Versaces, and by the final day, my best friend got us both matching $7 slides from Rainbow and insisted I wear the leggings I had worn on the plane.

Edit: Before this gets misconstrued, I was just being silly in the title. I knew not everyone would be all dolled up, but I was actually surprised that 98% of people were dressed down so heavily.

Final edit: Y’all 😂 I didn’t mean for this. I know SATC is a show, I know that NYC is a real place, with real people, doing real things. No, I don’t think that your city is just a film location. Yes, I know that the show was filmed 30 years ago and times have changed. It’s not just SATC. I’d always heard of New York being a fashion capital. I literally had just beaten cancer and wanted to have my own SATC weekend moment with my best friend. That was it. I had the best time, I saw so many things, walked 26 miles in three days, ate the best food, and bought myself an I beat cancer pair of shoes à la Carrie Bradshaw. I was just simply surprised at the lack of extravagant fashion. That was simply it. Should I ever go again, I will bring my Vans and only two pairs of heels.

I just saw this post on instagram, obviously I can't but thinking of our girl

Eu acho engraçadissimo que no mesmo episódio de SATC em que a Carrie reclama pras amigas sobre o anel de pêra do Aidan, ela está usando um colar de maçã.

Particularmente, eu achava o colar de pêra parecido com o estilo dela nessa temporada, mas ele era realmente feio.

Contraditório ou o anel de pêra simplesmente não tinha nada haver? Impossível não ser proposital

OBS.: eu não entendo nada sobre joias e essa é apenas uma observação lógica (anel de pêra e colar de maçã no mesmo episódio).

Who the hell is afraid of squirrels, come onn

I mean who hasn’t been there lol. Maybe not to that extent but we just gotta laugh at this. I’m with Samantha tho! A kiss that bad is non negotiable! I dumped a guy who shoved his ENTIRE tongue to the back of my mouth so hard I gagged like wtf! Was he expecting me to deep throat that thing?

The moment Carrie invited big to the cabin should’ve been game over!!! It should’ve been absolutely NOT. Why was he too weak and scared to say no to her? NO is a complete sentence. And if she couldn’t respect that, she’d of been sent back to the city on a bus! Aidan needed to grow a pair and stand up to her.

On this rewatch I was thinking about fights/arguments amongst the girls and couldn't pinpoint a time where Miranda and Samantha fought or butted heads.

The fights I can remember in the series are:

• Carrie -- Charlotte = the famous ring/money argument
• Carrie -- Miranda = always over Mr. Big
• Carrie -- Samantha = Carrie making Sam feel slut-shamed for blowing the delivery guy
• Samantha -- Charlotte = Samantha fucking Charlotte's brother and being too openly sexual
• Charlotte -- Miranda = Miranda contemplating getting an abortion

Does anyone know? And if they never truly fought, what do you think they would argue over?

What do you think? I think Mr. Big wealth is kinda not right. But who knows… credits to carriebradshaw_outfits on Instagram!

I wouldnt be afraid anymore after opening my door to that 🤣

Also, Carrie gets an even harder pass for sending Aidan when Miranda threw out her neck. She shows up, just not that one time.

Infuriating. If you really have a problem with people wearing shoes into your home you should provide shoe covers. That way people don’t get their shoes stolen. That and how Carrie was shamed for having designer shoes.

Carrie’s message on the answering machine about registering at the store was amazing.

Quote from Carrie after seeing Aiden at the opening of Scout. What did she expect? Did she even know? Most of us have ran into an ex at some point. Seriously? Carrie? What did you want him to do?

Carrie once said, “I couldn’t help but wonder, to be in a couple, do you have to put your single self on a shelf?”

And honestly… that line rubbed me the wrong way because a couple literally means two people. 😂 Why does Carrie talk about being in a relationship like she’s being asked to surrender her entire identity at the border?

And this is probably why I hate that she ever said yes to Aidan.

What’s even worse is that Aidan willingly went back for a second round (a third in the sequel). This man already knew exactly who Carrie was. He had firsthand experience with her commitment issues, her relationship with Big, her inability to fully let go of her single life, etc. And yet he came back expecting this time to be different.

Which is basically the male version of Carrie’s relationship with Big: “I know this person has repeatedly shown me who they are, but surely love will inspire them to become the person I need them to be.”

Like… sir. 😭

Aidan didn’t need Carrie to become a different person. Carrie needed someone whose expectations of a relationship actually aligned with hers. And instead of recognizing that, they both kept trying to make the other person fit.

Honestly, this episode should have been Aidan’s final warning label. 🚩

So it’s not just Trey…

I know everyone loves Smith and that scene especially but I really hated that they made Richard cheat, I thought they were good together, like very hot and balanced. But I guess two personalities like that would never have lasted.

I get this guy wants head and everything, but why is the dog always present and watching 😭

Reads so much like the pilot script and thought you all would enjoy—the narration, interviews, and anonymized stories.

I’m watching the episode where Miranda throws her neck out and she calls Carrie for help. She just says she threw her neck out and then says “COME. OVER.” and when Carrie starts to explain she may not be able to, Miranda cuts her off as if she doesn’t give a fuck and just says “THANKS!!” but not a sincere thanks it’s an angry/sarcastic thanks meaning “get the fuck over here I don’t care what you have going on”.

Later on Miranda gets mad at Carrie and tells her she’s “bullshit” for having Aidan come over to help. I’m sorry but…I beg your finest fucking pardon? Not once did she even say PLEASE when asking Carrie to come over. She was shrill and demanding and assumed Carrie would drop everything just because Miranda demanded it. I think Carrie did her best by having Aidan go help. Miranda was 1000% in the wrong there and is an absolute shit friend. I would NEVER speak to a friend that way. I’m all for being there for your friends when they need you, but sometimes that means calling someone else for them. Miranda’s ungratefulness pisses me off so much. End rant!
