Episode 4 set the girls up with their new friends, oh and with Stanford’s ( clumsy) leaving so I was interested to see where episode 5 was going to go.
Episode 5 was a powerful piece all told…with more depth than many of the fluffy bunnies give it credit for.
The girls’ lunch ( with Anthony acting as Samantha) was really joyous
Carrie has hip problems, a fact that underlines that everyone is getting old and her solid-as-a-rock relationship with a drunk Miranda is put to the test when Miranda has a dalliance with Che( Sara Rameriz)
Charlotte is dealing with her daughter’s gender identification as well as coping with Carrie’s post op peeing, Miranda is suitably sexually confused, while Carrie is high on post on drugs and Anthony steals the show with his impersonation of Baby Jane Hudson
The series is morphing into something more complicated and grounded now. With everyone older and slightly more flawed. The scene with Miranda orgasming with Che while poor Carrie has to pee in a bottle in the next room underlines this beautifully and the subsequent interaction between Miranda and Carrie is incredibly moving
It’s all a bit less frothy at times now but when we get older , don’t we all get less frothy ?
