The third season of And Just Like That feels like the show has finally found its rhythm. Unlike earlier seasons, which struggled to modernize the beloved Sex and the City characters, this season lets the women simply be themselves—wealthy New Yorkers in their 50s focused mostly on friendship.
A standout moment comes halfway through the season with a long shoe montage, where Carrie’s stylish footwear takes center stage. This scene hints that the show is less about drama and more about enjoying life’s little luxuries. And that’s exactly what works.
Carrie now lives in a huge, sparsely decorated Gramercy Park townhouse and maintains a long-distance relationship with Aidan. Charlotte balances family life and a successful art business.
Lisa is busy making a documentary about pioneering Black women but struggles with stress. Seema, the new character meant to fill Samantha’s shoes, fights for recognition at work. Miranda is dating and working as a human rights lawyer.
The show doesn’t shy away from its luxury-filled fantasy world. Whether it’s Carrie debating a $7,000 dining table or mocking tourists, it embraces the upper-class Manhattan lifestyle with a wink. Despite this, the series remains funny, warm, and self-aware.
Gone is the forced drama from previous seasons, like Miranda’s ex, Che, who disappeared without mention in this run. Now the focus is on the simple joys of lifelong friendship, which gives the show its heart. The storylines are light, the conflicts minor, and the pace steady, creating a cozy, comforting vibe.
It’s hard to say if the show is truly “good” in a traditional sense. The jokes sometimes seem to come first, with plots added later. But for longtime fans, this gentle, easygoing portrayal of Carrie, Charlotte, and Miranda is a welcome return. And Just Like That season three is a soft landing—like marshmallows and air—with plenty of stilettos marching on.
And Just Like That season three airs on Sky Comedy and is available on NOW.
