Hi, I'm Kristen Davis, and I want to know, are you a Charlotte?

You guys, this is very, very, very exciting.

We are having the very first return guest.

I'm so thankful to Ms. Lena Waits. Thank you for having me back. It's

brilliant, brilliant to have you back. I'm so honored and grateful to be back for my second time,

my second appearance. We just count down the days until we can get you back. Look, let's go. It's my

favorite season. Oh, it's my favorite season two. Season three is my favorite. Right? I feel like it's

when everything gelled. Everything gills. That's usually how it's my favorite season two. Season three is my favorite. Right? I feel like it's when everything gelled.

Everything gills.

That's usually how it goes with the season three of shows.

But I think for this particular series, I think something that happens about season three, like even for me, and I was watching it in real time at the time and just really experiencing what everybody else was

experiencing this this show that was very prolific but was very much a product of

its time yes yes indeed which we're going to discuss you guys because this episode this episode is called No Ifs, Ans, or Butts. Yeah. It aired July 5th in the year 2000, 25 years ago. Wow. So bonkers to me. Yeah. I mean, it does seem like another lifetime ago, but on the other hand, like if you literally, 25 years? It's like, it makes no sense.

Right. I'm 41. So I was like, you know, in my 20s.

And where were you when you were in your 20s?

I was still in Chicago, but, you know, gearing up to come to L.A.

Got it.

But really with a desire, to be a television writer, and I've said this publicly before,

but I think sex in the city really made me want to take it very seriously.

And I was very charmed and moved by the voiceover, for sure, the character development, the friendships on the show.
