Candace Bushnell thinks And Just Like That has found its footing in season 2 — and is a proud defender of the Che-Miranda story arc that has prompted so much online discourse.
“I’m really enjoying this season,” Bushnell, 64, exclusively told Us Weekly while promoting her one-woman show, True Tales of Sex, Success and Sex and the City . “I think they had some kinks that they had to work out. It had been a long time, obviously, since the original Sex in the City ended.I’m invested in the characters. I always want to see what’s going to happen. I love the new characters. I think I’m one of the few people who likes Che.”
Bushnell’s column in the New York Observer served as the inspiration for the bestselling Sex and the City anthology book series, which was later turned into a TV series by Darren Star that ran on HBO from 1998 to 2004. The show followed BFFs Carrie (Sarah Jessica Parker), Miranda (Cynthia Nixon), Samantha (Kim Cattrall) and Charlotte (Kristin Davis) throughout their dating lives in the Big Apple. After six seasons, two subsequent movies and a prequel on The CW, the women of SATC returned for the Max spinoff in 2021.
While highly anticipated, And Just Like That initially spawned intense debates and criticism. In addition to fans wanting the character of Samantha to return to the breakfast table with her gal pals, some argued the characters didn’t feel connected to their old selves — especially Cynthia Nixon’s Miranda, who leaves husband Steve (David Eigenberg) in season 1 for nonbinary comedian Che, portrayed by Sara Ramirez.
While many have reacted negatively to the character of Che— The Daily Beast called them “the worst character on TV” in January 2022 —claiming their comedy isn’t funny or that

Though actor Willie Garson died in real life in September 2021 after a private battle with pancreatic cancer, his beloved character, Stanford Blatch, is alive and well on. Garson filmed several episodes of the Max reboot's first season before his unexpected death, and at the time, the show explained his exit with the character leaving to follow one of his influencer clients to Japan and asking his husband, Anthony Marentino (Mario Cantone), for a divorce.Since then, there have been several references to Stanford — in the season 2 premiere episode, Carrie wears a kimono that she says he sent her — but on Thursday's episode, Stanny's storyline seemed to have a clear end note. Outside of the central relationships and drama going on within Thursday's episode, Carrie Bradshaw (Sarah Jessica Parker) asks Anthony over to her apartment, telling him that Stanford wanted her to speak with him.
