Kim Cattrall's Anticlimactic 'AJLT' Finale Return

credit: Instagram


It is time for the long-awaited Season 2 And Just Like That finale. This means that Kim Cattrall will finally be reprising her role as Samantha Jones. Of course, fans know that she had opted to not be a part of the reboot. Her character was sent off to London and communicated infrequently, mainly in times of crisis. There have been many crises in the two seasons yet she has not really come running. Then, it came out that she would have a small cameo in the Season 2 finale and fans wondered what her role would be. It is well-known that she and Sarah Jessica Parker (Carrie Bradshaw) do not get along so her presence has been covered by new cast members. It still felt a little off with her not around. 

However, knowing the backstory between her and the cast, plus how she felt about the show at this time in her life, having her back felt a bit like a sham. Thursday, August 24th, the finale premiered on max and it was time for Samantha to return, which she did. *SPOILER ALERT* Samantha was there within the first five minutes, calling from London. She was set to surprise Carrie for her final dinner at her OG apartment which she had sold. Carrie had no idea she was even flying in but there were problems with her flight so she would not be able to make it.

Therefore, she had Carrie hold the phone up while on speaker so she could give it a sendoff. She also broke out a name that she had called herself during the original run. Then, she bid her adieu and was done. That was it. Nothing more. Maybe if fans did not know about the dissension between Cattrall and the cast, it would have been more powerful, or if she had FaceTimed during the actual dinner, this might have worked. Yet, it was a poor attempt at getting her on the show. Sadly, it did not work and it is clear she is no longer needed. They had their chance and could have done so much more with Cattrall who is amazing on How I Met Your Father.

Have you watched the finale yet? It is now streaming on max and will return for Season 3 as it was just renewed.

A 'Jerseylicious' Split!

  photo courtesy of imdb.com When you were on a semi-successful reality show, especially as one of the key players, and everyone watched your love story unfold, it only makes sense they will want to keep following you after the series has ended. Such has been the case for 'Jerseylicious' star, Tracy DiMarco , who always went head-to-head with Olivia Blois-Sharpe on the show based around the never-ending drama at the Jersey salon, The Gatsby. Eventually, DiMarco got her happily ever after when she married Corey Epstein in her dream wedding. She continued to pursue her passion, have three kids, develop a wildly successful podcast, and work on clothing and accessories.  But, when you are in the public eye, boasting 541K followers on Instagram , almost everything you do is up for scrutiny. Fans (and haters) began to notice a lack of presence when it came to her husband, Corey and questioned if their marriage was okay. There is an abundance of photos of daughters, Skylar and

'The Real L Word' Cast- Where Are They Now?

  photo courtesy of amazon.com With the return of the hit Showtime series, 'The L Word,' it makes fans of the original show and ultimate reality spinoff, 'The Real L Word,' quite nostalgic. Actors can keep acting but reality stars can drift off into the clouds after their 15 minutes of fame are over. TRLW lasted three seasons with a revolving door of lesbians who soon became like friends and family. Initially based in California, the show followed the lives of a handful of gay women, somehow intertwined in life, and what it was like to date, fall in love, have sex, try to make babies, propose, be successful, and so much more. By the final season, the series went bi-coastal, utilizing NYC as a playground, as well. The show ended in 2012 with two weddings and a lot of tears. So, where are they now?
