In season 5 Carrie just pisses me off. Terrible hair cut, she seems desperate, only cares about her (wtf she doesnt even aknolege the fact that Miranda as a son), as she became just anoying!
PS- Sorry for the mistakes, english is not my native language
This is so scary. I literally came here to post the same thing but you beat me to it!
She is unbearable! I'm not sure if it's her haircut that seems to exaggerate her facial features but her jaw looks huge and she's over the top smiling in EVERY scene. It's so annoying. She comes across as so arrogant as well. Always making terrible jokes and puns.
I really hate how much she screams as well. It's so high pitched and she does it so often. Especially in the first episode of Season 5.
I couldn't stand her in the episode where they went to Atlantic City either. It was Charlotte's birthday and Carrie wouldn't even let Charlotte do anything she wanted, so selfish. And when those guys referred to her as the "hot one" over Charlotte, come on!
The scene where her and that guy stand underneath the awning because of the rain, and she keeps talking to him and he gradually gets more and more annoyed and walks off is the most accurate scene of what would happen to Carrie in real life with men. Because most of the men in the show wouldn't look twice at her, sorry but it's true.
She was annoying before season 5 but it's like she's even more of a caricature than she used to be!
P.s. sorry for the rant, haha!
That was hilarious when Carrie wouldn't stop talking under the awning. She just wouldn't shut up. I wasn't a big fan of how short her hair was. I sure did enjoy watching her smile all the time. She's just a very happy person. I wasn't a big fan of the Vegas episode, I don't like when they leave the city.
shareI found her annoying as hell to the point where I would cringe. Yet, SJP is a very captivating actor that she makes you want to keep watching her.
One of my least favourite Carrie moments was S4 Ep 11 when Sam was asking the girls how many abortions they had had. Carrie says "err...1!!" To which Sam replies "oh right, that waiter at TGI Fridays" and Carrie takes great offence at the suggestion that she would have a one night stand with a waiter who worked at TGI Fridays, insisting that it was a waiter at The Saloon "and let me remind you, in 1988 the Saloon was very happening!"
I think it just sums Carrie up. Superficial, narcissist.
Season 5 Carrie was the worst. I don't know who wrote the majority of those episodes (probably MPK) but she acted like a damn fool. Carrie was incredibly superficial and fixated on the finer things in life, as demonstrated by her hatred of the "country" (meaning 10 miles outside of the city) and her ill treatment of the adorable sailor from New Orleans.
Her decibel level certainly increased as the seasons progressed. In season 1 she seemed to be the quietest of the four but as it went on I guess she found more confidence and started to project more and more.
By season six, the episode when she met the Russian, she seemed to spit out every enunciation.
Well, she did indeed acknowledge that Miranda had a son and showed support. It was Samantha who refused to acknowledge, help (until Carrie told her to), or even ask about Brady and basically shoved Miranda in a cab to go home when the other girls were going shopping.
shareIf I recall correctly she and Charlotte would watch Brady for several day at a time.
sharePersonally, I'm amazed it took you until season 5 to feel that way. I'm currently on a re-watch of the whole series (last time I watched it all was probably a few years ago) and I just keep getting reminded of why Carrie was always my least favourite out of the girls. I don't remember a huge amount of season 5 (apart from Charlotte meeting Harry because I love those two) but I feel like I'm definitely going to find her even worse if everyone is saying that's her worst season.
I've always found Carrie incredibly selfish, self-centred, whiny, childish, snobby, and narcissistic. Plus, I've noticed recently that for someone who is apparently a sex columnist she can be a bit of a prude. I'd say out of all the girls (maybe including Miranda) she's probably the least adventurous and experimental with sex and is one of the ones that judges other sex acts in such an exaggerated way the most. Charlotte is more open minded when it comes to sex than she is.
I think that the lack of experience in the sex department is more to do with Sarah.The character was supposed to be somewhat neutral and writing about other people's sexual experience as opposed to her own. She was supposed to be good expert in the relationship department and we see how that went. She seems to never come across guys that wanted her to do qnything different except the guy who wanted her to pee on him. No one of the girls had to deal with anything like that.I don't think she was judgemental when it wasn't called for. I can't think of any instances where wasn't rightly judgemental. She was indeed very self-centered and annoying, can't argue there.
shareI'm rewatching. Mid Season 4.
I hate the way she treats Aidan. He was such a patient, loving guy.
And Big was an annoying narcissistic.
But if she chose Aidan, the drama and series would abruptly end.
I think season 4 was my turning point with Carrie. She became insanely annoying when her and Aiden got back together!! I mean, was all the screaming during "sex and the country" necessary? FYI, as someone who lives in NYC, there are squirrels literally EVERYWHERE! So I don't get why she was so freaked out. And just overall, she was just a major *beep* to Aiden (inviting Big to his cabin, how bitchy she was when her laptop broke down, wearing the ring around her neck, etc.).
shareI so agree. She was a self absorbed shallow bitch. The way she treated Aidan the first and second time. He asks her never to see big again and she can't do it and then stays friends with him and he comes to the cabin. Really?? She treated him like garbage!
shareThat was the point. She was Aidan's Mr. Big.
shareAll 4 of them and their circle of friends were annoying and self-absorbed. Carrie’s fixation with the jerk Big was annoying and pathetic. What an awful romantic lead.
shareITA. I loved watching this show, but I didn’t love the actual show (does that make sense?). And I just can’t bring myself to rewatch any of the seasons. I feel like I have moved well past it and don’t care to go back there. (Ditto with The Sopranos, btw.)
After Big refused to commit to Carrie, and then married Natasha, I was done with him. (Never really liked him anyway.). It was just so gross when she continued in her twisted toxic cat and mouse game with him. They hurt Natasha, Aidan, and her friends who were angry that she would even consider going back there again. And imo it wasn’t fun for a lot of the fans, either.
I never wanted her to get back together with him. And I really didn’t want her to end up with him. Imo Carrie ending up with Big just was such a backwards progression for her character. It made me think all the previous seasons (and growth) were just a waste.
I have never watched any of the satc films, and I won’t watch the new series either.
