does anyone know... is sunday's finale going to be an extra long episode?! Like an hour?!

Sunday's episode will be 45 minutes long.

Did y'all think anything of the fact that Chris Noth said "Carrie & Big forever?"

I am just hoping they end up together.

There is also going to be a farewell show the hour before the finale.

which means we need to start watching at 8pm till 9:45pm...

1 hours and 45 minutes of SATC....

On HBO??

Yes! LOL, but I figured I was in "Celebrity Mole mode" when I thought that and figured it meant nothing. BUT, the girls did make a face when he said it, so who knows. If my Mole suspicions are right, they will end up together. :D

Yup!! :D

SATC Movie??
 

I cried so much last week when I watched!!!

For whoever asked, the big ethereal dress (when she is Paris waiting for dinner with Alexsandr and he doesn't show up until late) is Atelier Versace - it was featured in blue in the December issue of Vogue.

I can't believe anyone would say the necklace he gave her was hideous - it was beautiful! Those were very high-quality, crystal clear diamonds from Fred Leighton.

Anyway, it seems like everyone else in the show is at a really good, content spot right now. I just think it should end with Carrie equally as happy, whether by accepting her singleness, staying with Alex, or getting together with Big. But really, I hope that Carrie and Big end up together (knock on wood - I don't want to jinx it!). Maybe we won't find out what happens until the movie?

I just think Big and Carrie have such a great history, and what he said about coming in fourth after the girls who are her true loves was SO sweet - maybe he has really grown up.

I am going to be in mourning when it ends this weekend... So sad.

SATC on Prime Time Thursday
 

Did people see that? I thought it was interesting that they interviewed the "four real NY women" (or however it was termed), and they were two blondes, 1 redhead and a brunette.

OK Ladies just a few more hours!!!! We are so close.

I am SO happy the way the series ended. Although Carrie and John AKA Mr. Big have had some drama, I wanted them to end up together. I knew as soon as Alexsandr let go of her hand that she was going back to NYC. I was also happy when she found her nameplate necklace, I know I'd die if I lost mine also. Did anyone else notice that the show came full circle.

1. Carrie had on the same coat that she had on in the first ep.
2. Big said "abso-f'ing'-lutely" during the first show as well.

It was so sad to see it go. I cried like a baby.

I really hoped they would let Carrie be single but happily single. But, if they HAD to make all four women in monogamous relationships, I think this episeode was sheer perfection.

I wepted like a child during after and I'm still affected by it. I thought is was such a lovely episode and it's true, we're all looking for love. The incovenient, all consumming, all or nothing love and more importantly, we want someone to love the me that I love. I LOVE their friendships and was blown away by Miranda's storyline and even Samantha's too. Happy but not surprised how Charlotte ended.

Funny how all four of them ended with men they never would think they would end up with.

I'm tearing up as I'm writing this!

I just can't believe his name is John...it's so 'un-Big', but that was probably the point!

He's John Doe since it's still unclear what his name is.

I think John is brilliant because people something really sophisticated and trendy and something you don't normally hear everyday and John is as common as you get.

Brilliant!

I loved the ending as well. The fact that they didn't really make a big deal out of "Big's" name being John. I think it was kinda the point. You know Big being Big but having a normal name. And I like the fact that the scences with them weren't like falling in each others arms and crying and all dramatic. It was just them laughing and having fun...something Carrie never had with Alexandr.

Oh and when Charolotte got her baby. I was crying.

The ending showed how far each og the characters have come. Miranda was actually not so cold, Samantha really cares about Smith. Carrie ended up right whreshe began...however both she and Big are not the same people they were when they started.

I liked that Big said "It took me a long time to get here...but I'm here" when carrie asked him how he got there. Because it took him a long time to realize Carrie was the one, but he knows that now.

"2. Big said "abso-f'ing'-lutely" during the first show as well."

I originally hated that line, and I hate it now... It sounds dumb... Anyway, I wish whats his name would have come back... The guy that did her floors. He was the best, and she screwed that up royally. He rocked, and that would have been the best ending... I still think her ending with BIG went against the originall premise of the show...

I loved the last episode; it was absolutely perfect! I will really miss Carrie, Miranda, Charlotte and Samantha, though :(

I have a question, though. In the scene where Charlotte and her husband were having lunch with the husband/wife redneck couple, what happened? I had to leave the room just as the rednecks said the baby was a girl and missed the rest of the scene.

That was such a good episode! I am really sad that the show has ended. :(

KR- The redneck couple told Charlotte and Harry that they wanted to keep the baby. Harry was mad and asked them why they even bothered to come over and put them through all of this. The couple said it was because they wanted to see NYC.

I haven't gotten to see any of this season, because we don't have HBO... however, I've been living vicariously through you all, by reading this thread... (that, and I own seasons 1-5, so I watch those just about daily)

Any chance anyone could do a decent recap of that last show? It would be most appreciated!

OK is started with Carrie going to visit Juliet (the Russian ex-wife) and the Russian had to cancel at the last minute so Juliet and Carrie had lunch and Juliet kept saying how she care for Alex, but could no longer be 2nd to art.
Then Carrie went to a book store and they happen to sell her book (in French) and met her fan club there (both people) who wanted to throw her a party. Carrie is getting dressed for the party when Alex has a "what if they hate my art?" moment and begged Carrie to go with him She goes with Alex and misses her party. They arrived at the opening and the art people are inlove with his lighting crap and he leaves Carrie to sit by her self. At that time she notices a hole in the line of her purse and she finds her "Carrie" necklace. She then know she must go to her party but she misses it and go back to the hotel where she met Alex and they get in a fight. He says they he made it clear in the begining that art was #1. Carrie then realized that she needs to be # 1 not # 2. Alex starts to walk away saying that he does not want to talk about it and Carrie grabs his arm which makes him swing around and he accidently hits her. She then goes does starts to get a new room (her own) and that is where Big finds her. She starts to cry saying how Paris sucks and she was just hit and Big thinks that the Russian did it on purpose. He starts to run up stairs to "kick some Russian butt" and Carrie is running up after him. She has to trip him to make him stop.

Then Carrie and Mr Big is in NY at her place and she invited him up.

Now on to Miranda. Steve and Mary (his mom) are at the table and she starts talking to Brady calling him "lit Steve" Steve is saying that he is Steve and what not. Steve then goes into the kitchen and talk to Miranda asking "is something wierd" Miranda then follows steve out and sees Mary acting "weird" again. Steve then takes her to the ER. He then finds out that she had a stroke some time last week. He decided that Mary is going to spend the night at his house and Miranda and Steve go to Mary's apartment to get some things. There they find the place thrashed and bugs everywhere. Steve is freaking out saying "no my mom, not mary" and "he will hire her a nurse, we have to" Miranda then says Mary can move in with them. *flash foward a couple days* Miranda is talking to Charolete over coffee (at Miranda's place) and Mary comes in saying she wants to take "litte Stevie to the ZOO" Miranda says that this is "brady" and Mary walks out of the room, Miranda then says that she is amazed at Steve, he is wonderful and what not and then realized that Mary was wearing a coat and runs to the door. Miranda finds it open and grabs her coat and Charollete talks care of Brady and Miranda goes looking for Mary. She finds her eating pizze from a garabe can. Miranda take her home and then bathes her. Magda see it and later tell Miranda that she is an angel and that she loves her family. Miranda tell Magda not to tell steve to worry him.

Now to Sam,

ok since Sam had chemo her sex drive in no more. Smith confronts her saying maybe she needs to talk about it. Sam tells him to MYOB. Now Smith has this Attilla the Hun movie to shoot in Canada and will be gone for 6 or 7 weeks. Sam tell him that if he wants to hook up with some one she will have no problem and that she actually wants him too. He does not want to says like the chemo has not killed her. She is now like a tree, and it is winter. She looks dead, but wait and see her when spring comes and she blosoms again and again Sam drops the conversation. Now we see Sam walking in to her office and her sec says she has flowers. They are from Smith and say some like "I will see you in spring" Sam calls Smith and says that she takes back that hole please sleep with some one and want him to wait for her.

We then see hom going in to her place at night and waking her up to tell her that we forgot to tell her something on the phone.... "that I love you Sam" and Sam says something like "you flew in to NY to tell me that" and they hug and kiss and you can see tears.

In a later see you can see Sam and Smith having sex.

OK and Last is Charollete.
They filled out some adoption papers and there is a couple from NC that are giving up their baby. Char and Harry open their home to them and the couple is eating and tell them that they canged their minds and they are keeping the baby. Harry is devasted and pissed off. Char understands and tell Harry that their baby will come. Harry asked if "God forgot their address" and Char replied 'we are Jews, be patient and that God loves them"

fast foward a couple days and Harry is bringing in the mail and opens an envolpe saying that they found them a baby. They will get her in 6 months from China and then he shows Char the pictureof the cutest little chinese girl with big eyes and a huge pink bow on her head (Carrie would be proud)

ok and the last part is when Sam, Miranda, and Charollete are having their bunch when Carrie walks in the door. Miranda scream and ever one hugs and cry.


THE END!!!!

http://entertainment.msn.com/tv/arti...px?news=150342


This weekend may not be the swan song for "Sex and the City." The series' top executive, Michael Patrick King, and the show's cast is in discussions with HBO about a movie that would continue the saga of the four New York City friends, HBO spokeswoman Tobe Becker said Thursday.

Becker would not comment specifically on a Variety report that HBO is trying to wrap up deals with series stars Sarah Jessica Parker, Kim Cattrall, Cynthia Nixon and Kristin Davis to bring their roles to the big screen

While movie adaptations of popular TV shows are fairly common, it's far more unusual to bring the original cast of a TV show to a movie played in theaters.

The final episode of the HBO series is to air Sunday with the question lingering: Will Carrie Bradshaw ditch her artist boyfriend in Paris and return to the city she loves and/or Big, her philandering former flame?

Edited versions of the HBO series will begin appearing on cable's TBS later this year.

recap
 

But the most surprising part of the finale was...at the very end, Carrie was strutting down a NY street with a Manolo shopping bag in her hand. Her phone rings..we see the caller ID saying "John" ...

And it was Big!!!

He called to tell her his Napa house was on the market.
http://instagiber.net/smiliesdotcom/.../leapfroga.gif

Aiden is married. Remember that episode where she ran into him and he was married with a baby?

Plus, she doesn't even talk about Aiden anymore...she compares everything to Big.

Seems to be a premise of many long-running shows... a keynote phrase to tie the whole thing together.

If anyone remembers the first and last episodes of Miami Vice, the last line said by Sonny Crockett (Don Johnson) to Rico Tubbs (Philip Michael Thomas):

"You ever consider a career in Southern law enforcement?"

I LOVED this last episode. Everything worked out perfectly, in my opinion. My favorite parts: when Charlotte saw the pic of the baby, the Magda/Miranda moment, Smith telling Samantha that he loves her, Carrie walking down the street at the end, and the reunion in the coffee shop. It was all just so great!! I enjoyed the retrospective before the finale too. Good times.

Did anyone else notice that the pregnant girl was played by the old Becky from "Roseanne"? Good to know she's still working.

OH HOW I CRIED!!!!! When Charlotte got her baby, what a cute baby!!! And the whole Miranda and Steve relationship was just perfect! I was so proud of her! Sam and Smith were too cute.... and of course when Big came through that door in Paris I was so excited!!!

I loved how they got back together! It was really perfect!

OMG, I cried so hard during the show!! I LOVED it!! I am so happy that Carrie and Big are together, I wanted that all along. And I cried when Charlotte and Harry got their baby-even though when the couple from NC was on there I burst out laughing, because I have so seen some of those people up here!!:p

Anyhoo, this is the coolest thing-when Miranda and Charlotte are having coffee at Miranda's house-did you guys see the teapot and tea cup and saucer?? That's my fine wedding china!!! :D :D I started screaming " OMG my wedding china is on SATC!!" And then I called my friend back home and told her. I live it!! It's by Bernardaud and the pattern is Galarie Royale Blue.....and I picked it out over a year ago, I'm such the trendsetter!!:p

God, I'm going to miss that show.

I did. I see she is now going by Alecia instead of Lecey. I hadn't seen her since Boys don't cry.

Smith's flowers and the note were the sweetest ever. I'm happy she ended up with Big. I was crying too when Charlotte got her baby.

rainbowbrightCS-

Thank you for the wonderful summary! I was confused when everyone was saying that Charlotte got her baby, so you cleared that up for me!

I am really glad that Carrie ended up with Big. I know he has his issues, but really, she does too, and they have worked through so much.

How weird that it's all over. This is the first show that I've ever watched episode to episode (with the exception of this season, no thanks to the cable company). I can't imagine anything else comparing. :(

SATC Movie
 

Kristin Davis was on Ellen a week ago or so. in regards to a SATC movie, she said she is excited and ready to make a movie. I think she even said the producer is ready for a movie and even has a story line or two.

OK I've been watching someold episodes later and maybe someone will be able to answer this question.

When Miranda and Steve finally got married. Did they ever discuss what they were going to do about the baby's name. I didn't see all of that episode. But when the baby was born she decided to name him Brady Hobbes. Well when she married Steve, wouldn't her name & I guess the baby's last name become Brady---?? Maybe they didn't go into it on the show. I always notice stupid stuff like that. Anyone know?

Yea i wondered that same thing......

Brady Brady---?

Mirnada doesn't seem like the kind of person that would take her husband's last name (even though she married him and moved to Brooklyn, hahaha). I'm willling to bet it was just assumed that she and Brady kept their names as is.

Looks like there won't be a SATC movie :(
