Sarah Jessica Parker has broken her silence on the dismal reviews to the series finale of “And Just Like That.”
HBO recently announced ahead of the Season 3 finale that the series would wrap and not return for a fourth season.
In the finale, "Party of One," Carrie (played by Parker) ended up as a single and independent woman having recently broken up with long time love Aidan.
The pair finally called it quits after Aidan admitted he still couldn't trust Carrie after her past infidelity.
Many fans of the show took to social media to express their disdain for the way the show was wrapped up.
One user on X commented: "That #AndJustLikeThat series finale was one of the absolute worst endings to a show I've ever seen. A plumbing mishap and a Lego-eating dog. Perfectly fitting for such a terribly written show. Yet I'm so sad there won't be more next week."
A second left a more scathing review on the show as a whole, pointing out its eschewing of the series' central theme of friendship: "A show about womanhood & friendship… and the main characters don't even share screen time all together in the end? Such a letdown."
Parker who has played Carrie Bradshaw in the "Sex and the City" franchise for the past twenty-seven years told The New York Times she doesn’t really care what fans think.
"I don't think I have the constitution to have spent a lot of time thinking about that," she said. "We always worked incredibly hard to tell stories that were interesting or real. I guess I don't really care. And the reason I don't care is because it has been so enormously successful, and the connections it has made with audiences have been very meaningful."
When the Times asked her if she liked the decision to end with Carrie on her own, she responded, "Absolutely. I feel good about her. I think she's set up pretty well."
Regarding the haters, Parker conceded to People that "I think you're going to perhaps read things or hear things that don't always feel great."
She added, "When you're part of a community, people are going to have a lot of feelings. And it doesn't mean that a feeling can't change, it's a reaction. We want very much for people to have all those feelings, and it's not for us to police or try to correct them."
