SJP’s Carrie Bradshaw went into the ultimate episodes of the sequence as a single girl, after splitting from Corbett’s Aidan Shaw and a one-night stand together with her neighbor downstairs, Duncan, who moved again to London. She additionally struggled to put in writing an epilogue for her novel, after her writer needed it to have a contented ending — as in, have her essential character find yourself with a romantic companion, or at the least the potential of one.

Like the principle character in her e-book, Carrie puzzled what her future would seem like … and whether or not she would discover love once more. The episode began off together with her visiting a Chinese language restaurant with robotic servers, solo, with the hostess placing an enormous plush baby within the sales space together with her so she did not “should eat alone.” The expertise was mortifying, with Carrie telling Miranda, LTW and Seema — however not Miranda, as, bizarrely, neither the principle 5 solid members nor the core returning three stars all appeared in the identical scene wherever within the finale — about her lunch with a “aspect of disgrace.”

“Apparently, not solely is it tragic for ladies to be alone prior to now,” she stated, referring to her e-book, including, “it is also a difficulty for ladies sooner or later.”

In a dialog with Charlotte later, Carrie admitted she would possibly “be alone for the remainder of my life,” questioning “who” she’ll be alone. She admitted that after Massive died, she at the least had Aidan as a risk at the back of her thoughts, feeling she will not be alone for lengthy. However with that additionally achieved for good, she realized she has to “stop considering, ‘Possibly a person,’ and begin accepting, ‘Possibly simply me,'” including that it is “not a tragedy,” however a “truth.” She advised Charlotte it was time she begin accepting that reality.

After that realization, she additionally advised landscaper Adam she needed one thing slightly extra “wild” and “free” for her backyard, “one thing extra me,” signifying her embrace of the only life.

Following Miranda’s disastrous Thanksgiving dinner — extra on that beneath — Carrie’s ultimate moments of the present confirmed her returning to her townhouse, maintaining her heels on as she walked across the house. She then turned on the karaoke machine left over from Charlotte’s birthday bash, and cued up Barry White’s, “You are The First, The Final, My Every little thing.”

What adopted was a montage exhibiting everybody having fun with the pies Carrie delivered to them earlier within the episode — together with Anthony and Giuseppe, Charlotte and her household, LTW and Herbert, Seema and Adam’s hippie mates, and Pleasure and Miranda.

The episode — and sequence as an entire — ended with Carrie rewriting her epilogue, ending her e-book with, “The girl realized she was not alone – she was on her personal.” She then danced down her hallway one final time and out of body perpetually.

Cynthia Nixon’s Miranda Hobbes discovered in latest episodes that her college-aged son, Brady, was anticipating a toddler. Neither she nor ex-husband Steve took the information nicely, although, inflicting rigidity between all of them. Regardless of considering his child mama was a “vengeful fool,” each Miranda and Steve vowed that “there isn’t any approach our grandkid is just not going to know us.”

The finale passed off on Thanksgiving, which Miranda hosted. Everybody stored dropping out of dinner, together with Charlotte and Miranda’s girlfriend Pleasure, so the dinner solely included Carrie, Brady, Brady’s child mama, two of the child mama’s mates and Charlotte’s boss, Mark Kasabian (Victor Garber), who Charlotte invited to arrange with a very uninterested Carrie.

Miranda anxious that Pleasure bailing due to a “sick” canine was all a lie, after Pleasure witnessed a combat between her and Brady about his impending baby in a earlier episode. After Carrie advised her to name Pleasure, Miranda did simply that — and discovered the canine was really on the vet getting emergency surgical procedure and rushed to be by Pleasure’s aspect, solidifying their relationship.

After Miranda returned house solo, the dinner itself was a catastrophe, with Brady’s child mama and her mates taking over far an excessive amount of display time for the present’s ultimate episode … and clogging the bathroom with waste viewers really needed to see. “S–t occurs,” Carrie quipped, as Miranda famous she was taking over everybody else’s “s–t,” together with her son’s. The silver lining: Pleasure stopped by, proving she’s comfortable to spend the vacations with Miranda’s household, irrespective of the mess.

Following his combat with most cancers, Charlotte’s husband Harry was having a tough time getting it up within the bed room — with Charlotte telling LTW Harry was “devastated our life stay is not what it was.”

When requested how the scenario made her really feel, Charlotte stated, “It is not likely about me proper now” — earlier than insisting she’d “completely” marry him yet again, realizing all she is aware of now and all they have been via.

Whereas cooking Thanksgiving dinner for her household, Harry interrupted her basting to tell her he was “crisp and able to baste” — earlier than the 2 ran off to “give thanks,” i.e., have intercourse.

After simmering flirtations between the filmmaker and her editor, Mehcad Brooks’ studly Marion Odin, Lisa lastly put up a tough wall between them.

As he needed the pair to seize dinner collectively and have fun Michelle Obama presumably narrating their docuseries about unsung Black ladies, she stated all this wanted to cease — telling him, “we will not go for a drink or for dinner or go wherever outdoors of this edit bay, this must be about work, simply work, and now we have to reel no matter that is again in.”

He agreed to maintain it skilled, realizing it could “destroy every little thing” for them each, earlier than she later made it clear to her husband that, regardless of him going via a little bit of a depressive episode after dropping his metropolis comptroller bid, they may make it via every little thing collectively.

She was final seen accepting a pie from Carrie, earlier than spending Thanksgiving together with her household.

After her personal string of failed romances, Seema went into the ultimate episodes having a reasonably good factor with Carrie’s landscaper, Logan Marshall-Inexperienced’s Adam.

The finale, nonetheless, had her questioning their future collectively after he made it clear he by no means actually needed to get married, calling weddings a “waste of time” and “such a ridiculous concept.” That despatched her right into a little bit of a tailspin, as she stated she’s been “groomed” to desire a marriage ceremony her complete life — calling the romance of all of it one thing she’s at all times dreamed of. “At this age, do I really need it or am I simply programmed for it?”

When Carrie stated she needed to get married as a result of it made her “really feel chosen,” Seema puzzled whether or not she felt chosen by Adam … or if it was even his duty to make her really feel that approach. Later, when Carrie had a one-on-one with Adam as nicely, he made it clear he sees himself with Seema for good — telling her, “She’s particular, she’s a lifetime.”

She and Adam have been final seen spending the vacation together with his mates, Seema wanting extra relaxed than she’s ever been.

And that is that. Sadly, we bought no ultimate shot of both our beloved trio or the brand new 5 collectively within the final episode … and no point out or cameo from Kim Cattrall, which, whereas an extended shot, would have been good.

So, what did you suppose? Did it wrap up nicely or go away you wanting extra? Pontificate beneath!
