63 Thoughts I Had While Watching And Just Like That… Season 3, Episode 4

I'm going to warn you guys in advance that this particular installment of And Just Like That… is, well, not exactly a thrill ride. I mean, it's hard to top the fun of episodes past, not to mention the original Sex and the City canon (I just rewatched the episodes where the girls go to LA, and man, I miss Samantha), but do things really have to be this dry and Aidan-centric?
Nonetheless we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into Michael Patrick King's intellectual property. Below, find (literally) every thought I had about the fourth episode of And Just Like That…'s third season:

HBO Family Among Cable Networks Being Shut Down By Warner Bros. Discovery

Warner Bros. Discovery is shutting down cable networks HBO Family, ThrillerMax, MovieMax and OuterMax. The move, reported earlier this week by Cord Cutters News, was confirmed to Deadline by a person familiar with the decision. More from Deadline Kim Cattrall Turned Down 'Sex And The City' Role 4 Times Due To "Self-Inflicted Ageism" International Insider: Animated In Annecy; Warner Split; Sarandos In Spain Pay-TV Falls To 1987 Levels, But Wall Street Analyst Thinks It Could Be "Finding The Long-Imagined Bottom" Charter Spectrum systems informed their customers of the impending change. 'At Spectrum, we are committed to providing you with exceptional service and want to alert you of changes before they happen,' the distributor told subscribers. 'Effective on or after August 15, 2025, HBO Family, ThrillerMax, MovieMax, & OuterMax will cease programming and will no longer be available.' The move is the latest concession to the shrinkage of the traditional pay-TV bundle. HBO Family, for example, once had a clear reason for being during the linear era. In an on-demand, streaming world, though, its lineup of long-tail movies like Dolphin Tale, Spy Kids or Beetlejuice Beetlejuice have diminishing value for distributors. Non-ad-supported linear networks are also endangered species lately, with even a larger player, Starz, having just 30% of its total subscriptions in linear. Aside from WBD, major cable network parents including NBCUniversal and Disney have also unplugged cable networks. The business is also being separated out from the rest of media portfolios given the ongoing decline in subscribers and revenue. Despite the secular downturn, the networks remain lucrative assets, throwing off considerable cash flow and profit. Longtime industry analyst Craig Moffett, in a report earlier this week, took note of a potential leveling off in pay-TV subscriber levels. Although total pay-TV penetration has fallen to 1987 levels, he believes first-quarter data from distributors shows the industry may be 'finding the long-imagined bottom.'

Kim Cattrall Turned Down ‘Sex And The City' Role 4 Times Due To 'Self-Inflicted Ageism'

It might seem impossible to imagine anyone other than Kim Cattrall as Samantha Jones, but the now iconic character initially took her some convincing. The Golden Globe winner recently revealed that she turned down the part in HBO's Sex and the City four times before signing on due to 'self-inflicted ageism' over being 41 in such a sexually confident role.

It became, 'Man, let's have more of that,' she explained to The Times of what persuaded her. 'She wasn't a nymphomaniac — well, some people might have thought she was — but she was just enjoying the main course. Everyone else was nibbling on the appetisers when she was going for the steak. And it was always on her terms — that I always insisted on,' added Cattrall. 'But I'm the antithesis of her [Samantha] in many ways. I'm a serial monogamist, and then some.' Cattrall said of the beloved role, 'I created a fantastic character that I loved, and I put a lot of love in it. And if I'm remembered only for that, then that's really OK.' Based on Candace Bushnell's New York Observer column, Sex and the City ran for six seasons on HBO from 1998 to 2004, followed by two theatrically-released feature films in 2008 and 2010, as well as the CW prequel series The Carrie Diaries (2013-'14). The sequel series And Just Like That… debuted on HBO Max in 2021, kicking off its third season on May 29. After opening up about her behind-the-scenes differences with co-star Sarah Jessica Parker, Cattrall opted not to reunite with Parker, Cynthia Nixon and Kristin Davis in And Just Like That…, but she still graced fans with a brief Samantha appearance in the Season 2 finale after Deadline reported the cameo back in 2023.
