@Darrinass: in general, the last season is deeper. many serious relationship issues are being addressed. how Charlotte struggles with her infertility. how Miranda turned from a Manhattan girl into a family lady and now became the choice of buying a home for the family...

An amazing series!
Smith and Samantha's relationship is, in my opinion, the most touching that Samantha has ever had.
Carey finally stopped mindlessly running at the first call of "the man of her dreams" and turned into a truly grown woman.
+ Charlotte's attitude towards Elizabeth Taylor is incredibly touching.

That moment when Samantha threw a piece of hair on the floor... It's very simple. :D
God, she's amazing.
And Smith is so caring and sweet.

This series can at least be loved for being as close to real life as the screen allows. that there is no such absolute idialization inherent in fictional worlds: the characters fall in love with real people, experience real problems with all real consequences, and also go through a sea of failures, just like in real life, and not 2-3, as standard films usually depict. It's truly beautiful.

The scene with the mouse in Carrie's apartment made me laugh
like that, "you've convinced me, let's go to the cafe."

Carrie as a little girl-"I don't want to hear that your friend is dead"
And she made a scene.

@zSarkasm: Well, that was extreme on her part, of course. But it can also be understood. When your loved one suffers from a serious illness, you go through all the stages with them and think the same thoughts. And when another person, no less close to you, from whom you expect support in this situation, proves that everyone is dying and your friend also has a great chance of doing so, then it's natural to hear it like a knife to the heart. After all, Carrie knows that such an option is possible. She just has to think about the best, she even has to. Therefore, I think that their conversation with the Russian could not have led to a quarrel if everyone had immediately conveyed their thoughts properly, and would not have started to foam at the mouth to prove something.

Oh, Russians have this thing that when discussing a problem, they can say "my friend had the same thing," making it clear that they have been in the same situation and understand everything that the person experiencing it feels.

@yana_nickolaeva: Alexander was trying to say not just "my friend also had cancer and she died", but to say that he also thought that his girlfriend was immortal, maybe he missed something, didn't do it, now he regrets and doesn't want Carrie to regret it too. Therefore, it is enough to hide your head in the sand and run around giggling, and it is worth worrying about your friend as if she will die just tomorrow. And this can really happen to anyone, especially if a person has cancer.

Smith was so supportive of Samantha, it was just great, and it made him even more beautiful)
the scene with the dog is also very touching.

In general, according to the series, All the girlfriends except Carrie chose men like Aidan and not the men of their dreams, good, kind, loving, loyal and living happily with them, only Carrie keeps sorting out men.

Smith is wonderful. At first, he seemed like a dummy, but this season he just opened up. I didn't like Harry at first, but now I can see how much he loves Charlotte. There's nothing to say about Miranda and Steve, their couple doesn't seem as harmonious as the previous two. Steve can be kind of selfish, as far as I'm concerned. He likes to tell Miranda what she owes, but he doesn't really remember his debts. If he'd had a proper job, they wouldn't have had to move to Brooklyn.

@Altaviel: He has his own bar, that's a lot! I was really annoyed by the "normal work". if you think in such stereotypes (a man should earn an overdocher), then you can say that Miranda works too much (50 hours/week for a minute, and there was even more). and she's a maamaa, she needs to sit with a child!!!11
they are in balance, they are satisfied with everything.
By the way, Brooklyn is not the other side of the planet. I was in New York, I lived in Queens on Astoria Boulevard (Brooklyn is at the same distance). 15-20 minutes by bus to Manhattan. then take the subway / taxi to where you need to go, too, very quickly. It takes me longer to get to my friend in Kharkov, and no one is crying.
and I really liked their house, such high ceilings, and so bright!

@Misunderstanding: Yes, and the fact that taxis don't go there is also nonsense.
Robin was living in Brooklyn at the time. No one thought it was far away, and they always went there by taxi.

— Talking to Miranda brought me back to reality, or rather to the people who want us to live in this reality. Yes, the world works in such a way that we face it every day, but what if reality means living in pain, fear, or Brooklyn? A defense mechanism helps us get through difficult times— is that a good thing? Or should we be realistic in this reality? Realism: a friend... Or an enemy?

I'm so glad to see Charlotte happy, and she'll get over infertility a little, it'll help her move on.

Samantha is cool and straight, sometimes you can change your image.

I think Miranda has found the perfect home.

Carrie, I'm glad I made up with Alexander.

When Harry appeared in the series, I thought, what kind of monster is this?! And now he's such a wonderful and considerate husband.

In Carrie's quarrel with Alexander, there was a clash of mentalities, as it seems to me. Russians are more direct and somehow calmer about death. Not to mention that Alexander is an older man and treats such things even more simply. I understand both of them and that Carrie doesn't want to hear anything like that, but Alexander's position is closer to me.

Samantha and smith in the very heart of ❤

Such a touching scene of chemotherapy, Samantha with the girls)))))
Where does Carrie keep all these crazy outfits of hers, all these princess skirts should take up half the landscape each!
Oooooh, poor Charlotte. But how beautiful Kristin Davis is playing this season!
I'm thrilled, I'm thrilled with the way men support each of the girls. Harry, Smith, Steve...How glad I am that it seems that they will finally stay with those who really love them very much, appreciate them, understand them, respect them.

Which I'm thrilled about how accurately and accurately the Russian mentality was shown through Alexander. You listen to his statements and every time you think, well, what is he wrong about?)

- Maybe the mouse ran about his business to the next apartment.
- You know what they say, now numerous relatives will flock to his funeral.

Very funny)))

Yes, there is a feeling that Baryshnikov personally had a hand in this, I don't know if that's true. But it's rare that Russians are shown like this in a foreign movie, especially now.

Some kind of coquetry on Carrie's part about the mouse, especially if you recall her reaction to the squirrel at Aidan's cottage.

It's great to have someone around who can easily solve such a problem, and sentiment is inappropriate.

Alexander, in my opinion, is the most unsuitable man for Kerry. She adjusted to all men, but it was her choice, and she adjusts to him because he wants it. Even in small things: drink this coffee, even if you don't like it, because I think it's the right thing to do.

at first glance, the series seems to be quite frivolous, but how many serious questions it actually raises: infidelity, divorce, infertility, cancer, menopause and much more. This is probably the best TV series for women of all time.

Samantha!.. And Smith! Her character has such a hard line and how well she's being led. I feel a lot of things right now... Everyone has incredible storylines.

Every time Samantha and Smith's relationship is shown, I find myself thinking how harmonious they are.
Although Samantha always reminds everyone that Smith is too young and stupid for her, his actions show that he is much older than the rest of Samantha's boyfriends!

Carrie, of course, is sometimes unbearable in her selfishness and infantilism. Alexander opens up to her, talks about the pain, and that he went through something like that, and she makes a scene and runs away. And she does it all the time. An insufferable person.

Despite the fact that Steve was Miranda's conscious choice, I can't help but feel like he's dragging her to the bottom. Why should she adjust if she loves life in Manhattan? As far as I understand, the house is being renovated, and her money is being bought. It didn't occur to him to say, "I'll make money, I have a bar, I'll sell my half," no. It is better to make her think "better" about the deteriorating conditions. Wildly freezing

What a wonderful series! I never stop admiring Samantha, she is my idol and ideal. Their relationship with Smith is just to the core <3

It seems to me that all the characters have grown up somehow this season. You get less annoyed, you understand and empathize more.
