And Just Like That... is an American comedy drama television series developed by Michael Patrick King for Max. It is a revival and a sequel of the HBO television series Sex and the City created by Darren Star, which is based on Candace Bushnell's newspaper column and 1996 book anthology of the same name.
Development for the series began in December 2020, following the cancellation of a third film adaptation. It was given a straight-to-series order in January 2021 by HBO Max. Casting announcements were made throughout 2021 and filming started in July 2021 in New York City.
And Just Like That... premiered on HBO Max on December 9, 2021. It received mixed reviews, with critics deeming it unnecessary and inferior to the original Sex and the City series. Audience reception to the series has been largely negative.
The first season was billed as a one-off miniseries, and its finale was released on February 3, 2022. However, a second season was announced in March 2022; it premiered on June 22, 2023. In August 2023, the series was renewed for a third season, due to premiere in 2025.

Production
[edit]Development
[edit]In December 2016, Radar Online reported that a script for a third Sex and the City film had been approved.[10] However, on September 28, 2017, Sarah Jessica Parker confirmed that the third film was not going to happen. She said, "We had this beautiful, funny, heartbreaking, joyful, very relatable script and story. It's not just disappointing that we don't get to tell the story and have that experience, but more so for that audience that has been so vocal in wanting another movie."[11] It was reported in 2018 that Kim Cattrall did not want to return as Samantha Jones in the film due to disagreeing with its planned storylines, involving killing off Mr. Big and Samantha receiving sexting and nude pictures from Miranda's 14-year-old son, Brady.[12] Cattrall later clarified in 2019 that she opted not to appear in a third film, explaining she "went past the finish line" portraying the character of Samantha because of her love for the franchise.[13]
In December 2020, it was reported that the proposed third film's script had been redeveloped as a miniseries revival of the original Sex and the City television series in development at HBO Max, without Cattrall returning as Samantha, in line with her previous comments.[14][15] In January 2021, And Just Like That... was confirmed by HBO Max as a series which would consist of 10 episodes.[16] In February 2021, Samantha Irby, Rachna Fruchbom, Keli Goff, Julie Rottenberg and Elisa Zuritsky joined the series as part of the writing team. Rotternberg and Zuritsky also serve as executive producers.[17] It was also confirmed that long-time series costume designer and collaborator Patricia Field would not be returning to work on the revival. However, she recommended her friend and colleague Molly Rogers to the creative team for consultation.[18][19] On March 22, 2022, HBO Max renewed the series for a second season, which premiered on June 22, 2023.[20] On August 22, 2023, Max renewed the series for a third season.[21]

The new series explained his absence via a letter to Carrie in episode four.[32] On November 8, 2021, Bobby Lee announced on an Instagram post that he has a small role in the revival.[33]

[edit]Production began in June 2021 in New York City.[23][35] The first table read was held on June 11, 2021, at the show's studio in Manhattan.[36] Filming had commenced on location in New York City by July 9, 2021, and was commemorated by the release of a promotional photo of Parker, Nixon and Davis on the streets of Manhattan.[37] To mislead speculation about a major plot line, Noth arrived on location the day his character's funeral was filmed.[38] On October 11, 2021, it was reported that filming had taken place on location in Paris, France.[39] Filming for the first season concluded on December 6, 2021.[40] Filming for the second season began on October 4, 2022, and concluded on April 14, 2023, in New York City.[41][42] The third season began filming on May 1, 2024 and wrapped on October 28th, 2024.[43][44]
Pittman had a smaller role in season two due to the simultaneous filming of And Just Like That... and Apple's The Morning Show.[45]
Release
[edit]The series premiered on December 9, 2021, with the first two episodes available immediately and the rest debuting on a weekly basis until the season finale on February 3, 2022.[46][47] The 11-episode second season was released on June 22, 2023, with two new episodes and the rest debuting on a weekly basis.[48] The third season is scheduled to premiere in 2025.[49]
The series airs on Sky Comedy, in the UK.[50]
Home media
[edit]The first season was released on DVD on December 13, 2022.[51] The complete second season was released on DVD on July 29, 2024.
Reception
[edit]Audience viewership
[edit]And Just Like That... was HBO Max's most-watched series debut, including both HBO and HBO Max originals premiered on the service,[52] until the premiere of House of the Dragon.[53] The series placed within the service's top 10 most-watched premieres including film debuts. The series was the most-watched first viewing in the service's history at the time of its premiere, implying that new subscribers enlisted to watch the series.[52]
The second season debuted to significantly lower viewership, dropping 59% from the first season.[54][55] Only about 463,000 households watched the season 2 premiere over a live-plus-three-day viewing period. Viewership for the following episode fell an additional 13%, suggesting that most audiences had lost interest and abandoned the series.[56] The second season was one of the biggest TV show flops of 2023.[57] Despite the steep ratings drop, the series was still the #1 Max Original of the year[58] before being dethroned by the second season of Our Flag Means Death.[59]
Critical response
[edit]For the first season, the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes reported a 48% approval rating based on 80 critic reviews. The website's critics consensus reads, "And Just Like That... fails to recapture Sex and the City's heady fizz, but like a fine wine, these characters have developed subtler depths with age."[60] Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned a score of 55 out of 100 based on 33 critics, indicating "mixed or average reviews".[61] The New York Times review, while stating that the show "in moments is very good," described it as "painful" and "part dramedy about heartbreak, part awkward bid at relevance," writing "when you are [reviving] a series there is the fatal danger of losing your touch. And there you have 'And Just Like That'."[62]
The themes of diversity and social justice were criticized. The Telegraph described it as "tediously woke",[63] and the Radio Times wrote: "The main three's newfound social and cultural awareness is shoe-horned into such a degree the whole endeavor feels often cloying.'"[64] Deadline Hollywood wrote that "far too many 2021 cultural touchstones and new characters are awkwardly parachuted into [the show] ... as if to check a box".[65] EmpireOnline added: "the attempts to paint a rich, real, diverse world are ham-fisted, inauthentic and riddled with self-consciousness, awkwardness and moments of self-congratulation."[66] Specifically, the character of Che Díaz was derided online and was described as one of the worst characters in television history.[67][68][69][70][71] Kristin Corry of Vice Media criticized the tokenization of Black characters, writing "The 'Sex and the City' reboot wants to undo its colorblind legacy by including Black characters. Unfortunately, they're treated as luxury accessories."[72]
The second season has a 64% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes, based on 70 critic reviews. The website's critics consensus states, "And Just Like That... still stumbles where Sex and the City once confidently strutted, but this much-improved second season comes a lot closer to offering fans their favorite cosmopolitan with a twist."[73] On Metacritic, the second season received a score of 56 based on reviews from 18 critics, indicating "mixed or average reviews".[74] Although critics noted the second season was an improvement from the first, many still considered it to be one of the worst shows of the year.[75][76][77][78][79][80]
Response from Peloton
[edit]After the first-season episode in which Chris Noth's character dies following a Peloton bike workout, the stock for the company dropped significantly.[81] The company issued a statement through Suzanne Steinbaum, a cardiologist and member of the company's health and wellness advisory, saying that they agreed to the product placement but were not aware of how it would be used in the pivotal scene. The statement also said not to blame the company for the character's death, and cited some contributing factors, such as his lifestyle (e.g., his consumption of steaks and cigars) and a cardiac surgery in a previous season.[82] Three days after the episode aired, the company released an ad, featuring Chris Noth and narrated by Ryan Reynolds, with Reynolds quickly citing the benefits of cycling and ending with "He's alive."[83] Four days later, the ad was removed after sexual assault allegations were reported against Chris Noth.[84]
Accolades
[edit]The series was given the Seal of Authentic Representation from the Ruderman Family Foundation for the portrayal of Steve Brady by David Eigenberg, and Chloe by Ali Stroker, as actors with disabilities and at least five lines of dialogue.[85] The series was recognized with The ReFrame Stamp for hiring people of underrepresented gender identities, and of color.[86]
Other media
[edit]A documentary that serves as a behind-the-scenes look of the series titled as And Just Like That... The Documentary was released on February 3, 2022.[87]
