SITC Finale over! *spoilers* — Page 2

Orion- good post on the finale of SATC. The thing with Magda-I can only guess, but Magda always seemed to disapprove of everything Miranda did-she was always making sour faces at her.

As for the movie-I said that because at each interview, the girls keep mentioning a film to follow due to the popularity of the show and the demand for more. I don't care if there's a movie or not, but if there is, I doubt it would be as bad as the ones you mention. HBO puts out some FINE STUFF!!! (:^)

Orion59:

I agree with your original post about Magda and Miranda - I read deeply into it too and I think it does stem back to her relationship with her mother. Between helping Miranda with the baby and the house and always being a supportive friend, I think Magda has been more of a mother figure to Miranda then her actual mother was.

Regarding a film, I don't think it would be out of place to keep the story going. The subtle changes in the characters as they undergo various stages of relationships was the essence of the show. Who knows how married life with Big will affect Carrie, or a baby with Charlotte, or a live-in mother-in-law with Miranda, or post-cancer survival with Samantha. These are all HUGE issues that could easily be explored. Maybe it's just me, but I think the series ended too soon. The show never seemed tired or overdone. The characters still had a lot of room to grow. Had all the characters seemed settled into their lives or were just reaoting the same crap every week, maybe I could see a reason to end the show, but with so much turbulence still in their lives and given the popularity of the show, it could have easily continued another two seasons. Were the girls just tired of doing it?

*sigh*

At least we'll have the DVDs.

That's HBO's brilliant programming strategy. They ended OZ (my favorite) way before it got tired, now SATC, and then it will be the Sopranos.

It was very touching. I will miss it, it was the only show (sitcom other then Will AND Grace that i loved)
I am really sad it is over.
I can't believe i cried for tv characters. But i did.
I am happy with the ending.
The show will be missed. Wish it is a cruel joke and it will be back very soon.

Oh and hope to see Magda at the Drama Desk awards again this year.

The baby will probably continue to be Hobbs since Miranda is not the type to adhere to the belief that the wife and children are the husband's possesion and therefore takes his name. That's where the name change custome originates, from a time when women were bartered off and "given away" by their fathers. that custom really needs some updating. I know of a couple who, hen they married, took the first letters of his name and the alst few of her name to craete a new family name. That's a much better sentiment, two people blending together as one new family
