  • We're revisiting a late 90s / early 00s classic, and we have questions. Is this show outdated or timeless? Are we Carries? Mirandas? Charlottes? Samanthas? Or just the ladies who watch at home?

    I can’t believe we used to think Big was charming 😂

      It was a different time! 😅 But SERIOUSLY, watching this now was such a different experience

      @@cringewatchparty I like it for the nostalgia but I cringe when I think about how much I used to identify with these relationships (the toxic ones). I also used to smoke and have a Cosmo while watching bc ✨Carrie✨ I thought I was so chic. Thankfully that habit died quickly.

    I started watching SATC as a 13 year old, while it was on. Re-watching as a 34 year old...i'm like dear god, this is not romantic...it's a cautionary tale!

      @@cringewatchparty Of course, great reaction as always! And yeah, though given that it just got released on Netflix I assume a lot of people are getting (back?) into it, at least that was the case for me. Grew up with the show as a cultural staple but didn't actually sit down and watch until this year.

    Yessss the part about the women being so hot and men just being boring and 2 decades older always made me so uncomfortable and sad and scared about my future loool

      So glad you liked it! The pilot was oddly still so relevant, do you think the rest of the episodes will feel as relatable?

      💕 Awww he was so good in everything he did! He's so funny in this SATC pilot. In White Collar, he got to be a geeky and cool international con man of mystery 😎 so different!

    13:52 Over the years I have thought this too. That in a way it’s quite depressing how much the emphasis in characterization at times is put on who they date or sleep with. You lose a lot of the individual with that approach.
    Also was that the same guy with Charlotte and Samantha?

    9:13 That’s where this was a product of the time. So it didn’t bother me as much. What bothered me was that line Carrie had about when Samantha was gonna try to get with Big that night and she described Samantha as having a “deluded kind of self-confidence”

    • @cringewatchparty
      @cringewatchparty  Před 21 dnem

      Totally fair. We don't really get the friendship vibes in this pilot, it's more a zero sum game called "get that man!" 😂
