Hello Eclipse,

I'm traditional, too. But there's just something about Trey which isn't right, even though I can't put a finger on it.

Carrie shouldn't have gotten P.O.ed at Oliver talking to other menses. It was a gay bar, after all.

Also, Carrie's ring is unrealistic. If she were to get a 3-carat ring, it should logically be from Mr. Big. He's the one with the scratch, not Aidan.

But that's the beauty of TV. It's escapist fantasy.

I feel you on the Trey thing. The relationship between he & his mother is unhealthy.

I mean, really, he's a middle aged man. It's time for him to be "weaned".

I just started watching this show a few months ago. I don't know, Aidan is soooo boring compared to Carrie (opposites attract??). I liked Big, even though he was a big kid. I really wished they would've matured his character a bit and put the 2 of them together. I don't know... I'm also aware that I've missed quite a few episodes, also.

And why, oh why, did they have to make one of them pregnant?

now that's a whole 'nother issue! I thought I was going to fall out during the show where Bunny was talking to Trey as he was taking a bath!! And he had the nerve to act like Charlotte had issues!! Pu-leeze!!

My take on the show is........it's still a good show but it's getting boring. The show is called Sex in the City. I have said this before it's not called let's get pregnant and married in the City.

[B]Hi Steeltrap.
I'm a bit of a traditionalist....I am very sad that Charlotte and Trey are having problems. I hope he will "see the light" and realize the error of his ways. I thought it was really sweet that he came back to do the H & G spread with her. I would hope that he would realize is mother is crazy when he goes back home. They both need some serious therapy. I think that would make a good story line. Carolotte & Trey with a wacky therapist!

Charlotte & Trey's marriage was doomed from the start. She was on a mission to get married and she accomplished it. She forgot to include the "to marry the right person" in her mission. She thought she needed to get married because she wanted to have children and it was "time" for her to get marry. What a big mistake! But a wacky therapist would be a good storyline.

I'm glad Aidan finally realized that when a woman wears your engagement ring around her neck and isn't trying to set a date, that she doesn't want to marry you.

Question: Do you think Miranda should keep her baby or give it up for adoption? I don't think Miranda really wants to be a mother and is ready to devote to caring for a child.

"and is miranda thinking of giving up her baby?"

Miranda's giving up her baby was not part of the episode. I just asked the question because of her behavior about being pregnant.

I was somewhat disappointed after tonights show.
Carrie and Aiden broke it off because Carrie wasn't ready to get married and Aiden was. The thought of marriage made her break out into hives.
Samantha was mad at Richard for having sex w/ other women and she began to realize that she had feelings for him and that she really wasn't interest in sleeping w/ anyone else. To get back at him, she had sex w/ some gossip columnist (right?).
Charlotte involved herself in the arts: dancing, music, art, ect. as an outlet to her separation w/ Trey.
Miranda goes to the doctor and hears the baby's hearbeat and also finds out that she's having a boy, but her attitude is very nonchalant and it seems as if she's lacking natural maternal feelings. Everyone is excited about her having a little boy except her. At the end of the episode, she felt the baby kick.

I can't wait until next Sunday.....I KNEW that Carrie was not going to marry Aiden. I was worried that MR. BIG would not be appearing this season-but according to the preview of next week's episode HE'S BACK! I am SO GLAD! I know many people dislike MR. BIG and cheered for Carri's relationship with Aiden. But as I see it: AIDEN represents WEAKNESS and MR. BIG represents a CHALLENGE (and I'm always one for a challenge) Who knows? There is only 3 more new episodes~We shall see what unfolds!

I don't think Aiden is "WEAK". He is the typical nice guy that women overlook for the MR. Big types. Mr. Big is the typical doesn't want to get involve type of man that women love but who are never happy because he can't make a committment.

Carrie was the Mr. Big in the Aidan/Carrie relationship (she couldn't make a committment) and Carrie is the "Aidan" in the Carrie/Mr. Big relationship (Carrie wants the committment).

I think Carrie's relationship with Big is more interesting because there is alot more storylines in that relationship than with Carrie/Aidan (the boring relationship).

Thank you for running this episode down. I've been away from a TV for three days (not to mention a computer), so I had my sister tape this. I'll watch it next Saturday.

I was so sad that Carrie and Aidan broke up. I really wanted it to work out for them. But, Aidan still didn't totally trust her and a piece of paper isn't going to make him do that. He could never totally forgive her for cheating so their relationship was doomed from the start.

I don't think it's fair to say that Miranda should give her baby up for adoption. She decided to keep it so that means that she will be devoted to loving her child. Just because she didn't have the standard response to her baby's sex does not mean that she doesn't love her baby. Everyone is different and everyone reacts to things on their own time. At the end of the show when the baby kicked, she got excited.

I do truly hope that one of these women finds a good man and has a successful relationship with him. They don't all have to stay single for the rest of their lives for the show to still be good.

How about I just realized that I didn't see the show this week?! See, this is why I love GC! I'm glad I could come here and check, because I know we talk about it each week, and I could see if I really missed it or if I was just trippin. But I really missed it.

Anyway, I always thought that Aidan and Carrie were terribly mismatched. I also was trippin' that Miranda got pregnant, she just doesn't seem the mommy type. I've been thinking that she'll miscarry. But who knows. I think that her having a child as a single mother will DEFINITELY change the dynamic of the show. I just can't see them having girls' night and stuff when she has a newborn.

CRAAAAAAP!!! I missed Girlfriends, TOO! AND the Daria movie. Crap. Lemme go pull up the Girlfriends thread. CRAAAAAAAP!

I missed it last week, but I will catch the tape when I'm at my mother's house this weekend. The beauty of having digital cable at my other residence.

I think it is pretty judgemental to say Miranda should give up her baby just because she did not respond to the songram the way everyone would expect. You would be surprised how many women are just like MIranda before the baby becomes active and they really KNOW there is a baby inside of them. Some people need to feel the fact of the baby not just the theory, if you catch my drift. Some women, who turn out o be wonderful mothers, are like Miranda all the way up until they are holdig the baby in their arms. You just never know.
