Fans Divided as ‘And Just Like That...’ Ends Its Journey on HBO Max
So, it’s official— “And Just Like That…” is wrapping up for good after its third season , and reactions are all over the place . The announcement came straight from executive producer Michael Patrick King, who shared the news on August 1 in a heartfelt statement. While writing the season three finale, he apparently realized it felt like the right moment to stop. And honestly, some fans agree… but others? Not so much.

For those who don’t know, “And Just Like That…” is the modern-day follow-up to the iconic “Sex and the City.” It brought back fan favorites like Carrie Bradshaw, Miranda Hobbes, and Charlotte York—only this time, navigating their 50s instead of their 30s. The show premiered in 2021, a full 17 years after the original series ended, and it’s been… a ride. Viewers were promised nostalgia, style, and grown-up drama—and depending on who you ask, the show either delivered or completely missed the mark.
Now with the final episodes set to air August 7 and 14 on HBO Max, emotions are running high. Sarah Jessica Parker, who has lived and breathed the character of Carrie Bradshaw for nearly three decades, posted a deeply emotional message saying, “Carrie Bradshaw has dominated my professional heartbeat for 27 years. I think I have loved her most of all.” Fans were quick to respond with their own farewells—some tearful, some not so much.
On TikTok, creator Kayla Charisse summed up the vibe perfectly: “I know this season has been a trainwreck overall, but why do I feel sad?” And that’s really the paradox—despite its flaws (and there were many, like random plot holes and inconsistent character development), people still tuned in. There was a kind of shared ritual in watching, even if it was just to hate-watch together on Thursdays.
Not everyone is mourning, though. Critics have pointed out that the writing lost its way, the characters became unrecognizable, and it felt like the creative team had no idea where to take the story next. One viral comment called the show a “hostage situation,” and others joked that the best time to end it would’ve been before the first episode even aired.
Still, there’s no denying it’s the end of an era. Whether you loved it, hated it, or just couldn’t look away, “And Just Like That…” has stirred plenty of conversation—and now it’s making its final bow. As for what comes next? For now, all we can say is: And just like that… it’s over.
