Kim just went IN on Sarah!

 

 

I hate that KC is having to deal with all of this right now, but my favorite thing about that post is that she included the NYP link as if to say, "Yes, it's all true."

^ I believe it too.  I think KC is letting down the curtain in her grief. It's too bad because I've always liked SJP, but I just believe KC's version of events.

Frankly, you don't have to be a storytelling genius to recognize what happened to SATC once Michael Patrick King took over as show runner.  I don't think KC was shortchanged in terms of storyline or airtime (although, OTOH, I don't think she evolved as much as a character as the others did), but I definitely feel like the latter seasons were one massive prop-up for SJP and Carrie, and I feel like it was orchestrated by SJP herself.  For that reason, yeah, I tend to side with KC, too.

I am completely on KC's side. things have been said about SJP's behavior for YEARS on that show and in the movies. has she worked since the movies ended? things can swirl in Hollywood for years before the public knows, and it just seems to me KC has bore the brunt of articles about her diva behavior, and not saying she never acted like that.....but SJP should have kept her mouth shut. she acts like it was her brother who died.

She’s doing that Divorce show on HBO that no one watches and has gotten “meh” reviews. Surprised it got renewed for a second season, but that goes to show how desperate HBO has been with series.

 

Also Team KC here. SJP is besties with mean girl Andy Cohen, which only makes her more suspect.

she may have ruined her career, with the fakeness that is now out. this won;t help at all....and didn't know that show was still on.

IDK, maybe it's the medication I'm taking for a sinus infection, but seeing Andy Cohen rightfully labelled as a "mean girl" just cracks my [!@#$%^&*] up.

 

HBO is VERY desperate to renew "Divorce" for a second season, but I suspect that's because they no longer corner the market on edgy, appointment TV.  Not when you have Starz, Showtime, Amazon, Netflix, Hulu and God knows what else out there providing them with real competition.

That probably has something to do with the fact that SJP became one of the show's executive producers.

True, lol!!

Ouch!!!!

I was shocked when I saw KC's original IG post by its vociferousness. She really lashed out! However, hearing that she lost her brother, I guess she saw red when SJP issued a statement about it. I did catch the SJP Redemption Tour two weeks ago when she went on WWHL with her biffle, Andy Cohen. She really played up the hurt feelings aspect after KC categorically refused to do a third movie. She got the whole WWHL show to herself to talk about her pain at being 'targeted.' Andy even suggested Sharon Stone as a recast Samantha. Andy could have really gone in on KC during the show, but I noticed he held back a little, possibly because he considers KC's Samantha Jones his spirit animal.

 

Anyway, my take on Cattrall's IG post is that she is at an age where she will not suffer fools gladly. She feels that SJP is piggybacking on her family's grief to make herself look like the better person. Given that SJP, the EP, and the other two women purposely excluded KC from their inner circle during the making of SATC, I can also understand why SJP enrages KC and she will never forgive her.

Chris Noth's statements are especially laughable.  Dude.  Come on.  It's just about common knowledge the kind of BTS shenanigans that you pulled on "Law & Order."  And the follow-up movie you did in the name of reestablishing your TV career after your film career proved nonexistent?  That was one, long vanity production, if ever I've seen one.

 

Yeah, Mr. Noth REALLY needed to have a seat.

Can we just take a step back and talk about how unnecessary another SATC move is anyway? Kim seemed her learn her lesson after the last movie was panned and didn't live up to expectations - it was time to let it go and gracefully move on to other things. I wish SJP could learn this. 

 

Cynthia Nixon has a respectable stage career (and won her second Tony award last year), and Kristin Davis has her infomercials (which I'm sure she's getting paid handsomely for). SJP is just clinging to a TV career that no one gives a crap about anymore. 

Not only do I NOT see the need for another SATC movie but I was surprised when they did a sequel after the tepid response from the first movie.  It didn't tank, I'm pretty sure it made its investment back but it was far from the runaway success at the box office that usually inspires sequels.

 

I say, "let it be".  There are other far more compelling stories out there to be told about female friendships. And this, coming from someone who enjoyed the HBO series.

 

Also, in terms of the KC vs SJP feud, I think it's bad form for someone to take their condolences out into the public sphere when they are not on good terms with the mourner-- you make it about you, instead of the feelings of those who are actually grieving.

Finally, there shouldn't be pressure on someone who is mourning to be the one to "step up" and make the condolence wisher feel better about themselves.  That is the height of self-centeredness.  Again, truly bad form, IMO.  

SJP's condolences and wishes for reconciliation could have been done privately with no expectation of a reciprocation, which may have hurt but that's life and at least, she would have known that she tried (in a dignified manner) to reconcile.  To put this all out there for public consummation was not about KC it was about SJP and her need for positive PR.  She should've respected the fact that her former colleague is likely reeling from a devastating loss and may be in no mood to 'unpack countless baggage' with SJP.  Maybe wait until a more appropriate time? That's if, it's truly about repairing a fractured relationship and not all about SJP.
