Carrie Bradshaw's Messy Farewell: Toilet Troubles and Unexpected Endings

On August 14, 2025, the series finale of "And Just Like That," the sequel to the iconic "Sex and the City," aired on HBO Max. The episode, titled "Party of One," saw the show's protagonist, Carrie Bradshaw (Sarah Jessica Parker), facing an unexpected plumbing crisis as she, her friend Miranda (Cynthia Nixon), and actor Victor Garber dealt with a clogged toilet caused by a lactose-intolerant Zoomer named Epcot (Spike Einbinder).

While Carrie's storyline had a sense of closure, with her embracing the idea of being "on her own," the finale left other characters' arcs open-ended. Miranda's story is "quite literally pregnant with potential new developments," as she is expecting her first grandchild. Seema (Sarita Choudhury), the de facto successor to Kim Cattrall's Samantha Jones, delivered the memorable line, "I don't miss the gluten," about her Thanksgiving pie.

Showrunner Michael Patrick King, who directed the finale and co-wrote the script, has stated that the decision to end "And Just Like That" came from him, not HBO Max. The cumulative feeling given by "Party of One" is one of "overpowering, inescapable strangeness," reflecting the show's departure from the iconic "Sex and the City" formula.
