i LOVE Kristin Davis' new Charlotte podcast... she had on Michael Patrick King this week and they ad(dress) something from the SATC finale... Carrie's hilariously huge, layered croissant dress.
the pod is fun and Kristin is hilariously talkative and excited, but she had on Michael Patrick King the showrunner of everything SATC related incl AJLT and he brought up the dress Carrie wear in Paris the one that was so ridiculously huge and fluffy and layered, and I remember thinking back then "how in the world did she ship that to Paris?" and MPK said the same thing. His explanation of how it got on the show is funny.
Basically, Pat Fields said to him the dress wanted to be on the show, and it had just arrived from Paris. He does an impression of her saying this. He says no at first because logically it made no sense, but then logic went out the window and he realized it didn't matter and sometimes common sense takes a back seat to what would work. He relates that to the episode they're covering and Samantha wearing a fur coat after sleeping at Charlotte's the next morning but she didn't have one the night before. But the morning scene works better with the fur coat, and he guesses it was Pat Field's idea.
But I know this for sure if AJLT had a ridiculously huge outfit that made no logical sense, todays bizonko anti fans would not be happy. They would say that would never happen on SATC. But they've just forgotten.
It's a fun discussion that transcends the ep they're coving and hits on AJLT and the movies and the franchise in general. They cover Carrie hate, filming the wedding in the movie, how fans look at the OG show then as opposed to now... really good.
