AND JUST LIKE THAT… – Review by Susan Granger

After two big-screen spin-offs, the Sex and the City cast – minus Samantha – reassembled for the sequel And Just Like That… in which the quest – finding/marrying the right man – was abandoned in favor of each of the admittedly middle-aged women finding/defining herself. In the first episode of the new series, Carrie becomes a widow, selling her once-coveted Upper East Side brownstone. Her husband, known as Mr. Big (Chris Noth), collapsed from a heart attack while working out on his Peloton. At the urging of her publisher, Carrie then becomes the keynote speaker at WidowCon.
