The Women sat at their iced-coffee-covered desks, staring into the vast beyond of their computer screens. They couldn’t help but wonder… what did they just watch for the better part of 12 hours, on and off for the last handful of months?

The answer is, of course, the final season of “And Just Like That…” The “Sex and the City” sequel has been polarizing from the jump, generating more discourse than minutes of airtime. And after just three cringey, painful, glorious seasons, it has come to an end.

We admittedly had gotten pretty behind on “AJLT,” due to our Big Summer of reality dating shows. But now that it’s September, we decided that it was time to dedicate the hours to this essential project, binge-watch the episodes we had missed, and dive headfirst into the conversation.

In this episode, we discuss what this season actually got right (quite a bit!), the Aidan of it all, the abysmal series finale, and whether hatred for the show is truly just bound up in hatred of middle-aged women. We hope you enjoy! Xo
