Season One Episode One

This show takes you back to the young Carrie, Miranda, Charlotte and Samantha. The ladies are much older now but still good friends. Samantha is not with the ladies and has moved to London. Straight out of the pandemic, the ladies are adjusting to the new normal. I like the show so far. Don’t try to compare it to the old show.

Miranda and Steve are still together and their son, Brady is now 17 years old. She has quit her law firm and starting some college classes; being the oldest person in the class. She’s trying to blend in with the new climate and is always saying all the wrong thing; but she means well. She also tries her best to befriend her professor.

Carrie and Big are still living in the penthouse. They have survived the pandemic by listening to albums every night with dinner. Carrie is starting a job with a podcast group and trying to fit in. Carrie is talked into going to a recital and postpone her plans with Big to go to the Hamptons. At the recital, something happens to Big.

Charlotte is still with Harry growing old together. She is no longer working at the art gallery, but a full time Mom to Lily and Rose. Lily has a recital and wants her friends to be there for it. Charlotte is obsessed with a new friend she has met at the girls school.

Anthony and Stanford are even back; still married but having problems. The entire group is helping each other cope to life in their 50’s.

Season Two

If you like fast past and not a lot of episodes, you may want to check them out. The acting is also great in this show. The first season was good, so I’m glad they did a another season.

The season continues where Season one left off. Hanna in the first season committed suicide and the tv station is trying to get past it. Alex has left the show and is living secluded out of the city writing books. Bradley is now the head anchor. Not sure if I like the new executive staff that has been hired. I’m sure with the old CEO knowing about what happened to Hannah and didn’t do anything had a lot to do with him getting fired. Alex has been asked to come back to the show. Bradley goes through a lot this season also. She starts a new relationship; her brother comes to live with her and she has Alex to work with again.

The anchors are trying to accept their new positions at the station. The coronavirus is talked about some but everyone is ignoring the signs. No one is taking the virus seriously. Alex is trying to get ahead of the new book coming out about her and Mitch. She has lied to her husband all these years, so now the truth is coming out. They have announced a guest anchor until Alex’s return. There seems to be some conflicts with the guest anchor.

Alex is getting ready for her return to the show. Alex does an interview with Maggie who is writing the book. Alex is still paranoid about everyone finding out about her. Alex ask Chip to come back as her producer but no one seems happy that he is back. I like Chip. I think he is getting the cold shoulder because everyone thinks he should have known about Hannah.

The new executive team, Stella and Cory, are trying to keep the peace at the studio. The ratings are low and they just waiting for Alex to start back. They start to show more about Mitch and where is currently hiding out in Europe. He has a COVID 19 scare and has to quarantine. No one is still taking the virus serious back in the states. Mitch is reflecting on his life. He at first does not think he did anything wrong. Later in the season, he does have a moment.

Alex is due to make her big return at the debate in Las Vegas. She is have back problems and worried about the book coming out. She is panicking along with the back pain. She cancels her debate appears and disappears. She gets on a private flight to go found Mitch. She finds him, shows up at the house he is staying at, and has it out with him. Because of the quarantine rules in place in Italy, Alex has a hard time getting a flight back to the US. Why can’t people just follow the rules. She should not have not been flying over there in the first place. With Alex’s visit, Mitch starts to see how he has damaged other people’s lives.

Alex gets Covid 19 and everyone at the station is freaking out. Alex gets very sick and unable to work; but Chip comes up with an idea for her to go on camera. Chip wants Alex to talk about her symptoms and how she is doing. She agrees and starts the broadcast.

Great season if you like the behind the scenes tv station drama. Not sure is there will be a third season. Enjoy the show!
