And Just Like That recap: Carrie joins the ‘sisterwives'
This story contains spoilers for season three, episode four of And Just Like That... The rooster crows, waking Carrie up from her night in Aidan's guest house. Once Wyatt sticks his head in the window and reports that she's awake, she has to step gently over the floor strewn with Gatorade bottles and free dumbbells. Is this the manosphere I've been hearing so much about? Carrie left her bags in the rental car, you'll remember, which is why we must witness a gorgeous woman with perfect hair insist that she's stinky and repulsive in front of literal teenage boys in the morning. Virginia is not the place our girl belongs, even as she insists on riding an ATV into town to buy Batsheva dresses at a 'sisterwives dress shop'. She gives Miranda an update on the phone, and suggests she invite BBC Joy's friends over to the Gramercy house so Miranda can still go on her first date with her work crush. But that's before another c-word gets in the way. Don't worry, I'm not going to beat this dead horse as much as the show's writers did. But to recap: after learning to breathe an episode ago, Miranda pauses during her big on-camera live cross – right in the middle of the word 'countryside'. Did she just –? She did. And you'll keep hearing it. Over and over. In memes and phone calls. In puns about the word 'context'. The humiliation of Miranda Hobbes is without end, but at least she and Joy share a smooch (which Carrie watches on her Ring doorbell app) by episode's end. Small victories. Seema and LTW are also having work dramas this episode, but when are they not? I wish I cared more that Seema turned down the offer to work for Ryan Serhant (of Million Dollar Listings fame) and has to leave her office, but I just don't. It feels low-stakes and drawn-out. At this point I'm surprised we didn't get a subplot with the assistant she tried to poach who'd never heard of Jerry Maguire. LTW, meanwhile, is yelling the word 'hey!' in her sleep, causing her husband to sleep on the couch. She's anxious and hasn't hired a new editor, but a candidate called Marion might be her saving grace. But – plot twist – he's a hunky man. LTW thinks she'll get cancelled for having a man work on a series about unsung black women. 'Let's move this along, I don't want this conversation played back to me in court,' her PBS editor tells her when she speaks this ridiculous thought out loud.

Huge Ring sale ahead of Amazon Prime Day — 7 deals I'd shop with up to 50% off
Amazon Prime Day is on the horizon, but if you're looking to upgrade your smart home, there's no need to wait. Right now some of the best video doorbells and security cameras we've tested are seeing impressive discounts. Amazon's Ring sale is packed with awesome savings. For example, you can get the Ring Battery Doorbell on sale for just $49 at Amazon. We rank this as the best Ring doorbell you can get for under $100, so with 50% off, it's a total steal. Some of these deals are reserved for Amazon Prime members, but you can sign up for a free trial if you're not already a member. There's also a chance some of these items will see bigger discounts on Prime Day itself, but shopping early is a great way to ensure you get the items you want before they sell out. For more savings, see our Amazon promo codes coverage, and check out the Nintendo Switch game deals I'd shop from $9. At just $49, the best value Ring Video Doorbell got even better. The newest of Ring's doorbells has head-to-toe video and package detection. You can't replace its battery, but it's a fantastic option at this price. If you don't need a spotlight or a floodlight, the Stick Up Cam is a cheaper way to monitor the outside of your house. It features 1080p video and two-way talk. This deal is available for both the plug-in and the battery-powered model. The Ring Indoor Cam (2023) can record 1080p video, scare off intruders with a built-in siren, and detect motion in specified zones. It is more compact than the previous model with the addition of a new privacy shutter and upgraded mount. Right now you can get a two-pack for $59 — that's the same price as a single camera. The Ring Battery Doorbell can be easily installed to watch your front door, while the Indoor Cam can be set up in less than ten minutes to view the interior of your home and give you a 1080p HD view complete with motion detection and a privacy cover. Though the Indoor Cam does require a power outlet, it also provides two way audio and noise cancellation and has a wide field of view. The Ring Battery Doorbell is our best value choice for Ring doorbells because it delivers the features we like most in Ring doorbells but still costs less than $100. We rank the Ring Battery Doorbell Plus as the best video doorbell on the market. While this Wired version must be plugged in, it's still a good buy with this discount. We like that it features 1080p HD video and useful features like Two-Way Talk. This Ring camera offers protection for your home night and day with its 1080p video feed, Color Night vision, and a spotlight that can illuminate its surroundings. Plus it runs off battery power so you can set it up wherever it's needed. Right now you can get a two pack of cameras for a nice $100 discount. If you're looking for a Ring alarm kit without the doorbell, then the 14-piece kit (suitable for 2-4 bed homes) is worth checking out. You can save 39% off the usual price, and comes complete with two keypads, one base station, eight contact sensors, two motion detectors, and one range extender.
