Summary

Rachna Fruchbom joins executive producers Michael Patrick King, Elisa Zuritsky, and Julie Rottenberg one final time to unpack the finale of And Just Like That…The group reflects on the characters’ journeys throughout the season and share their favorite parts of filming the episode, including re-creating one of Sex and the City’s most recognizable locations. Julie and Elisa discuss how Kristen Davis’ dedication to speak Hebrew in the original series led to Charlotte speaking Hebrew again at Rock’s they-mitzvah ceremony. Rachna explains how all of the characters, especially Miranda, grapple with coming-of-age in one form or another and Michael Patrick King reveals how he borrowed from his own personal experience with grief and loss to shape the final moments of Carrie’s story.
