Definitely disappointing... I hate that they killed Mr. Big and I honestly think that Samanth (Kim Cattrall) was right to sit out for this series. One of the plot messages in the original SATC and the movies was that you can age gracefully and still look and feel sexy, it was uplifting and hopeful! This series feels depressing and hopeless. I also hate that Miranda's character is dumbed down so much so that she is naive enough to chase after sex after one racy encounter with Che it just doesn't make sense. Thats something a hormonal teenager would do; not an older, wiser 50 yr old. She comes across very desperate. I also was bothered by the fact that the writers feel it's their responsibility to educate us on what politically and socially correct term we should use and what to call him/her/them... it's like really?!
