Sequel to Legendary Show Returns with High Drama and Cliches, Former Stars Attempt Surprise Cameos
- After a lackluster first season, And Just Like That... Season 2 premiered to mixed reviews as it tries to recapture the magic of Sex and the City while modernizing the franchise.
- Carrie, Miranda and Charlotte explore self-discovery, relationships and changing sexual politics in their 50s while struggling with loss and new beginnings in the second season of the Max series.
- Samantha Jones and Aidan Shaw make surprise cameos in an attempt to appease longtime fans disappointed with their absence, though their appearances do little to boost lackluster storylines and two-dimensional new characters.
- The series aims for inclusivity but faces criticism over surface-level portrayals of marginalized groups as it leans into shock value with graphic sex scenes, strap-ons and nudity.
- With glimmers of the original show's irreverent New York glitter and humor, And Just Like That... is watchable escapism but fails to capture the cultural phenomenon of its predecessor.
