And Just Like That...we've completed the original run of Sex and the City. We breakdown everything--from Carrie's determined sadness, Miranda's journey to caretaker, Samantha's seeming absence in season 6, and Kristin Davis nailing a close-up for the ages. Take a listen!

An American Girl in Paris: Part Deux

It's June 6, 1998. The number one movie in the United States is 'The Truman Show.' NBC ruled television, with 'Friends,' 'E.R.', and 'Seinfeld' dominating the ratings. Brandy and Monica were on top of the music charts, and, oh, and 'Sex and the City' aired its first episode.

Welcome to 'Shortcomings,' a new 'Sex and the City' podcast from Sam Bush (aka @bravohistorian) and Chris Lewis. They're going all-in on our problematic fave — the memories, the men, the fashion, and, of course, Aidan's obsession with KFC. Sam and Chris will recap all 92 episodes of the series, two movies, and whatever the revival is. So grab a cosmo and join Sam and Chris in taking a critical eye to a show that changed television.

After Shows

And here we are - the end of s1 of GIRLS. Thank you so much for your support, love, and encouragement. Your reward? An unhinged episode! Watch-out for an extra-long early chat including varied topics: Madonna, the VMAs, Eras Tour, Wicked, Patti LuPone, the Parent Trap,  Jesse Lally, and the Great Wars. And then we get into it all - Ray's face placement, Jessa's choice, Marnie and Thad, and Adam Driver's performance. GIRLS content begins @ 41:44 (SORRY)

Girls - She Did

It's a very non-classic episode of Girls, but a classic episode of Shortcomings - we breakdown Powell Goldman, Tally, and ask the simple - yet profound - questions, "What's going on with Katherine?" Take a listen! 

Girls - Leave Me Alone

It's Adam's world and we're just living in it - at least for this week! But before that, we take a strange turn into the world of bazinga, old timey jargon, and some dark sided takes about the world. And then it's time to discuss it all - Thomas John, Adam's play, and shower antics. Girls content begins 21:40 To support Shortcomings, visit us patreon.com/shortcomingspodcast

Girls - Weirdos Need Girlfriends Too

We're back in New York and even more specifically, Bushwick. The girls are acting up and so are we. Enjoy!

Girls - Welcome to Bushwick a.k.a. The Crackcident

Hannah is heading out of New York City and going home to Michigan and we're not quite sure how we feel about it. Is Eric the finest character we've ever met or a sicko? After a beautiful debut, does this second go-round live up to the first appearances of Tad and Loreen? And, dear god, where is Keri Hilson? Take a listen!
