Your boyfriend and your work crush are sharing a espresso and a smoke. Do you:
(a) Be a part of the dialog
(b) Run
(c) Play useless
Personally, I’m evaporating on the spot. I’ll defy the legal guidelines of science to keep away from getting caught in an interplay like that. On this episode of And Simply Like That …, Carrie ought to have chosen (b) or (c) (she has seen an individual die earlier than, and everyone knows she will run in heels) however as an alternative selected (a), leaving herself to sit down in the midst of Duncan and Aidan’s dick-swinging competitors whereas sporting her little lederhosen/milkmaid outfit. That costume is ideal for frolicking within the hills, so it felt like a waste when Carrie ran away in some forgettable balloon skirt as an alternative — to dump Aidan after one small argument.
What was the aim, expensive showrunners, of constructing us endure via eight episodes full of horrendous dad jokes and normal cringe from Aidan solely to have Carrie drop-kick him quicker than she would a pair of flats on clearance? The worst a part of all of this — the grimace-inspiring jokes, the middle-aged-man temper swings, the having to look at him jerk off in a truck —is that Carrie’s actions have led me to facet with a person. Even worse, I now should defend him. It’s not out of pocket that Aidan could be nervous about Carrie spending copious quantities of time with a dickhead, cerebral-presenting, brunette man (her kind) after she cheated on Aidan a number of instances through the course of their relationship. Little Miss Carrie couldn’t, wouldn’t, put herself in his footwear and at the very least let him air out his worries and neuroses. That lady was ready for any probability to dump his ass and sneak downstairs to canoodle with Duncan guilt-free. I get it, that head of hair and that little pipe do it for me, too, however c’mon, woman.
It’s not an episode of the Intercourse and the Metropolis franchise except Carrie is sprinting throughout some avenue in a pair of heels (unnecessarily, may I add; she has the stroll signal). That mentioned, her post-breakup Simone Rocha costume paired with that fuzzy grey cardigan — maybe a nod to Duncan’s affect on her?! — is working for me.

Lastly, one thing silky and comfortable for Charlotte to put on as her world will get, actually, turned the other way up. She’s acquired Mister Swollen Balls limping round, she’s fainting left and proper, the kids are nowhere to be seen. Let my woman relaxation.

I’m getting the sense that what our monster-in-law is sporting at Anthony’s dinner isn’t fairly culturally acceptable … however I suppose she’s the type of one that wouldn’t care.

What the heck is Duncan sporting? A wool blazer, capri pants, and leather-based slip-on footwear that appear to be cow tongues? I’m genuinely feeling fearful and unable to decipher what season it’s simply by taking a look at him. I used to be actually into his entire factor (tousled locks, pipe, furrowed forehead) till the cinematographer gave us this full-body shot.
And what’s Andy Cohen doing right here? Did we actually want him to reprise one in every of his five-second SATC appearances?
