1
00:00:01,600 --> 00:00:04,880
Speaker 1: Hi, I'm Kristin Davis, and I want to know are

Speaker 1: you a Charlotte? Thanks for coming back, everybody. This is

3
00:00:13,560 --> 00:00:16,360
Speaker 1: going to be part two of our favorite moments from

4
00:00:16,360 --> 00:00:17,520
Speaker 1: the first six months of.

5
00:00:17,560 --> 00:00:19,840
Speaker 2: Are You a Charlotte. I hope you enjoy.

6
00:00:19,800 --> 00:00:21,959
Speaker 1: And I'm honored to have you for many reasons. Number One,

7
00:00:22,079 --> 00:00:23,680
Speaker 1: I'd just like to see you. I love to see

8
00:00:24,520 --> 00:00:27,639
Speaker 1: Number two Lena, in case you guys don't know, is

9
00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:30,520
Speaker 1: a multi hyphen it. I'm going to tell you your whole

10
00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:32,320
Speaker 1: resume later and you're not in front of me. But

11
00:00:32,400 --> 00:00:36,400
Speaker 1: the thing that's important is that her knowledge a film

12
00:00:36,440 --> 00:00:41,720
Speaker 1: and television is so expansive and deep, and this is

13
00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:43,960
Speaker 1: partly why I love her. Like when we first started,

14
00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:48,080
Speaker 1: and just like that, you left me the sweetest, sweetest voicemail.

15
00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:50,400
Speaker 1: I don't know what panicky thing I had sent to

16
00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:53,400
Speaker 1: you or whatever, but you know, you're just very grounding.

17
00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:56,480
Speaker 1: Your knowledge is very grounding in terms of you know

18
00:00:56,560 --> 00:01:00,320
Speaker 1: what has happened before, you know how things develop in

19
00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:04,040
Speaker 1: our culture on television, in film, what it means, and

20
00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:05,479
Speaker 1: as you just said to me when you sat down

21
00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:07,320
Speaker 1: we were talking about this episode, you said, I think

22
00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:08,840
Speaker 1: television has a time stamp.

23
00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:11,360
Speaker 2: But tell me more, what do you mean exactly?

24
00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:14,759
Speaker 3: Well, I think sometimes when people look at TV from

25
00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:18,600
Speaker 3: say ten years ago or even twenty, it can feel

26
00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:23,960
Speaker 3: in moments uncomfortable or icky, even because you're thinking, oh, well,

27
00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:26,840
Speaker 3: no Onah would make that joke today, or you couldn't

28
00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:30,240
Speaker 3: do that now. And what's interesting about that is what

29
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:33,520
Speaker 3: I believe art is it's time capsule, really, and it's

30
00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:35,680
Speaker 3: a time stamp of where we were at that time

31
00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:38,400
Speaker 3: and what was happening in the world then. And so

32
00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:40,679
Speaker 3: I think of even though yes, He's are fictitious characters,

33
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:42,760
Speaker 3: in a way, this is sort of giving us a

34
00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:45,600
Speaker 3: sense of what New York was at that time, what

35
00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:48,640
Speaker 3: it was for women at that time, what the limits

36
00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:51,400
Speaker 3: were at that moment, and what could and couldn't be

37
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:54,560
Speaker 3: talked about, and what barriers you guys were pushing up against.

38
00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:57,520
Speaker 3: And so I'm really grateful that I got to grow

39
00:01:57,600 --> 00:01:58,800
Speaker 3: up with it. I was, like am I I was

40
00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:01,600
Speaker 3: a teenager when it first came, and so I was

41
00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:05,200
Speaker 3: learning so much about what it meant to be an

42
00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:08,400
Speaker 3: adult friend by watching you all. And I think I

43
00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:10,399
Speaker 3: was more interest than that than the love stories per se.

44
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:12,480
Speaker 3: But the love stories were there as well sold you

45
00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:15,640
Speaker 3: about self love and how you see yourself. But watching

46
00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:19,240
Speaker 3: it now as a forty year old person revisiting the episode,

47
00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:23,079
Speaker 3: for a lot of us who are my age, we

48
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:28,160
Speaker 3: feel a little confronted by now Sex and the City

49
00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:32,320
Speaker 3: because we are now the ages that you guys were

50
00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:37,679
Speaker 3: then at that time, and we're seeing ourselves play out

51
00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:41,800
Speaker 3: some of these storylines, and that I think is saying

52
00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:44,880
Speaker 3: that the show. You may point certain things out and say, oh,

53
00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:46,240
Speaker 3: you can't make that joke now, but I do think

54
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:50,200
Speaker 3: the show is aging well, thank you, because the fact

55
00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:54,200
Speaker 3: that I can see myself in it as I get

56
00:02:54,240 --> 00:03:01,440
Speaker 3: older and understand things better. It's work that I've gotten

57
00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:04,359
Speaker 3: to grow up with and I still get to sit

58
00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:07,040
Speaker 3: with now. But now it's not a lot of us

59
00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:09,919
Speaker 3: are saying, it's not just fun on the background. Now

60
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:13,720
Speaker 3: now it's okay, I'm in this stage right now, or

61
00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:16,360
Speaker 3: I'm going through a divorce, or I'm about to get married,

62
00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:18,680
Speaker 3: or I'm about to have my first baby, and so

63
00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:21,280
Speaker 3: now it's as if you guys are still there. I

64
00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:23,519
Speaker 3: think of art as an inheritance, and so we have

65
00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:27,000
Speaker 3: inherited this, this work, and that's why I think within

66
00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:30,000
Speaker 3: just like that is the continuation of the life of

67
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:31,960
Speaker 3: the work. And so when I go back and revisit

68
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:34,240
Speaker 3: and just like that, I will be as I get older,

69
00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:36,360
Speaker 3: I will then start to understand these stories even more.

70
00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:42,320
Speaker 4: He always got my eighties is the eighties. I was

71
00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:44,000
Speaker 4: doing an off Broadway show at the time. It was

72
00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:46,320
Speaker 4: it was the end of nineteen ninety nine, I think,

73
00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:48,560
Speaker 4: or two thousand, okay, I think it was early two

74
00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:52,200
Speaker 4: thousand and I he said, I wrote you something.

75
00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:55,480
Speaker 2: So he wrote it for you. Yeah, that's amazing.

76
00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:57,680
Speaker 4: But I was doing an off Broadway show at the time.

77
00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:01,360
Speaker 4: But I went in to read just make it official,

78
00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:04,920
Speaker 4: and you know. So I was doing a show called

79
00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:07,400
Speaker 4: The Crumple Zone, which did very well, ran for six

80
00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:10,320
Speaker 4: months off Broadway, and I.

81
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:14,360
Speaker 5: I remember our night. The day we filmed. It was

82
00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:17,880
Speaker 5: a tech day and the director, who I.

83
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:19,600
Speaker 6: Loved very much, not please no, he didn't want to

84
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:20,000
Speaker 6: let me out.

85
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:22,080
Speaker 5: I'm like, it's a tech day. People stand there and

86
00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:22,960
Speaker 5: you light it right.

87
00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:25,160
Speaker 4: And I went like this, I'm going to do this

88
00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:26,960
Speaker 4: episode because there was an.

89
00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:27,520
Speaker 6: Issue of maybe.

90
00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:29,560
Speaker 5: Oh no, I was like, I'm going to do.

91
00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:33,640
Speaker 2: This episode and I went, oh no. It wasn't desperation episode,

92
00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:34,400

00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:34,880
Speaker 3: There was one?

00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:38,200
Speaker 4: It was one episode that was wedding as your wedding

Speaker 4: wedding player, and do you remember we had two scenes?

96
00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:43,599

Speaker 4: I did people go how many episodes.

101
00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:54,120
Speaker 5: Did I do?

00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:55,240
Speaker 2: I did twelve?

103
00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:56,440
Speaker 6: Only twelve?

104
00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 5: I did one? Season three? Yeah to season four?

105
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:03,280
Speaker 4: Are three, Season five and six season six, and.

106
00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:04,280
Speaker 5: Then both movies.

107
00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:10,760
Speaker 4: Regular the movies really kind of solidified it, which was nice,

108
00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:15,040
Speaker 4: you know. So uh, there were two scenes in that

109
00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:18,600
Speaker 4: first episode. There was the one hates it, the very

110
00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:19,839
Speaker 4: famous hates it.

111
00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:20,599
Speaker 2: With the wedding dress.

112
00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:26,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, don't use Yeah, all that's okay. You're you're dragging

113
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:29,520
Speaker 4: and I'm yelling at the girl. And then there was

114
00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:33,720
Speaker 4: another scene in the back of the vera Wang in

115
00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:37,239
Speaker 4: this kind of little area yep, and I was fitting

116
00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:40,240
Speaker 4: you and you were getting very anxious as Charlotte, and

117
00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:43,120
Speaker 4: I had his scissors and it ripped the dress and

118
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:45,880
Speaker 4: you were furious and we just kind of looked at

119
00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:48,000
Speaker 4: each other. That scene got cut because it was at

120
00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:50,200
Speaker 4: three in the morning, four in the morning. There wasn't

121
00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:54,160
Speaker 4: enough coverage, and they cut it. Luckily they cut it

122
00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:56,440
Speaker 4: because it was almost like an argument between us.

123
00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:59,800
Speaker 1: I dressed, so it might not have gone well. So well,

124
00:05:59,839 --> 00:06:02,279
Speaker 1: they probably wanted to keep you. They probably knew already.

125
00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:03,480
Speaker 2: I don't know. No.

126
00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:05,280
Speaker 4: I remember running into Michael and he said, do you

127
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:07,120
Speaker 4: know how much great feedback we got on you?

128
00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:08,440
Speaker 5: I said, I don't know.

129
00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:09,680
Speaker 6: I said, and I don't care.

130
00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:11,320
Speaker 5: I just want to know him. I coming back and

131
00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:12,200
Speaker 5: I said, yes.

132
00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:16,039
Speaker 1: I need some clarity though, because sometimes people say things

133
00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:18,680
Speaker 1: that I'm not quite sure if I'm hearing correctly, Like

134
00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:23,400
Speaker 1: basically sam is saying. Samantha saying that you don't want

135
00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:25,480
Speaker 1: to be the guest star in the Three Cents.

136
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:26,840
Speaker 6: So you do want to be the guest.

137
00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:27,920
Speaker 2: You don't want to be the guest star because you

138
00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:28,719
Speaker 2: don't want connections.

139
00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:30,640
Speaker 7: You don't want connections. You don't want to do it

140
00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:32,560
Speaker 7: with like a good friend. You want to be like

141
00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:34,719
Speaker 7: you want to come in and out, enjoy it and

142
00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:35,600
Speaker 7: get the hell out right.

143
00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:37,640
Speaker 1: It's so crazy that Charlotte's like, no, maybe I would

144
00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:39,599
Speaker 1: want one of my friends, but.

145
00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:40,400
Speaker 6: That's so Charlotte.

146
00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:47,080
Speaker 7: She's like she would feel safe that way. It was terrible.

147
00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:50,599
Speaker 6: If she tried to converse.

148
00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:56,360
Speaker 8: Terrible, okay, just terrible in so many ways, Like, oh

149
00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:56,919
Speaker 8: my god.

150
00:06:57,120 --> 00:06:58,920
Speaker 1: Anyway, I had a moment of fear then too, because

151
00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:00,400
Speaker 1: I was like, I don't remember any of this.

152
00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:04,760
Speaker 6: She's like, wait, oh didn't I have a try to talk.

153
00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:06,839
Speaker 2: Her into it? Oh my god. I was mortified. Thank god,

154
00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:09,560
Speaker 2: I do not. But then poor Miranda.

155
00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:14,080
Speaker 6: I know, I know, it's so adorable.

156
00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:15,360
Speaker 2: I remember this at.

157
00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:18,920
Speaker 7: All, I know, and I love I really I love

158
00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:21,600
Speaker 7: how Cynthia played it through the episode so brilliant, like

159
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:24,000
Speaker 7: I'm going to get to the bottom of this, and

160
00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:26,680
Speaker 7: I'm upset and I'm sorry I wasn't chosen.

161
00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:28,280
Speaker 6: I am not upsetting, I know.

162
00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:31,240
Speaker 1: And she's got this therapist, which like, do you ever

163
00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:32,440
Speaker 1: see this person again?

164
00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:33,960
Speaker 6: I don't think we did. Oh my god.

165
00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:36,760
Speaker 2: He's an older man and he basically is like, are

166
00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:38,200
Speaker 2: you asking to have a THREESOMEE?

167
00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:38,600
Speaker 3: Right?

168
00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:41,840
Speaker 1: It's so weird and funny, and it's such a traditional

169
00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:44,560
Speaker 1: looking therapy office where I'm just like, is this what.

170
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:46,640
Speaker 2: A therapy would look like in nineteen ninety eight?

171
00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:49,080
Speaker 7: And Manattan knows it was probably whatever set we had

172
00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:51,200
Speaker 7: said that we could put up two flats, some books

173
00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:53,080
Speaker 7: and some books.

174
00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:59,600
Speaker 9: The first time we met Sarah Jessica was at Pat's apartment,

175
00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:02,440
Speaker 9: which is above the store on Eighth Street. It had

176
00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:08,160
Speaker 9: rubber floors that after parties she would like kind of

177
00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:12,880
Speaker 9: hose and that was sticky liquor or whatever.

178
00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:14,720
Speaker 2: I'm sure, I don't want to know more.

179
00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:18,520
Speaker 9: Let's show s j just a few little ideas. So

180
00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:20,600
Speaker 9: we had won Rebecca.

181
00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:23,240
Speaker 10: And Pat and I Rebecca was Pat's girlfriend at the time,

182
00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:27,720
Speaker 10: as you remember, went to Aina, who had a consignment

183
00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:32,120
Speaker 10: store in Soho. Yeah, and pulled a few things, which

184
00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:34,720
Speaker 10: we still do for you. We still go there, all

185
00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:35,679
Speaker 10: of it so much.

186
00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:43,679
Speaker 9: And we showed Sarah Jessica the fur coat, Oh.

187
00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:47,880
Speaker 8: You had it right then, Yeah, the clutch purse which

188
00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:52,280
Speaker 8: I believe she paired on the show with the fur coat,

189
00:08:52,920 --> 00:09:00,320
Speaker 8: and some little mules that were plastic. And I remember, uh,

190
00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:02,720
Speaker 8: you know, I always I've kept a diary all my life,

191
00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:06,120
Speaker 8: and I remember writing in my diary that Pat and

192
00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:10,480
Speaker 8: Sarah Jessica were so excited because they were going to

193
00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:12,959
Speaker 8: not wear pantyhose.

194
00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:16,400
Speaker 2: Aha. That was a major major point.

195
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:18,520
Speaker 9: I don't think people understand that.

196
00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:22,360
Speaker 1: No, I don't think people remember that number one. You

197
00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:26,160
Speaker 1: always had to wear them previous, like for me in

198
00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:29,520
Speaker 1: melrose Land and just Los Angeles in general, like that

199
00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:31,760
Speaker 1: was a normal thing. And obviously in South Carolina where

200
00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:34,800
Speaker 1: I grew up, I mean, of course, you wore panty hose, right,

201
00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:36,280
Speaker 1: which is what we called them back then.

202
00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:41,880
Speaker 2: And then I remember Pat just like no, and she's

203
00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:42,960
Speaker 2: being like, oh my god.

204
00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:46,280
Speaker 1: And in the beginning when I'm rewatching, obviously I hadn't

205
00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:48,960
Speaker 1: remembered a lot of this, but I've got hose on

206
00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:51,920
Speaker 1: a couple times, and I'm like, Pat must have been so.

207
00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:52,440
Speaker 7: Mad at me.

208
00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:58,520
Speaker 10: So funny. I'm glad that you understand where that's coming from,

209
00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:01,880
Speaker 10: because it was kind of like not a requirement, but

210
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:04,280
Speaker 10: women just wore it. And yeah, Pat, and they were

211
00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:07,080
Speaker 10: just we're talking about bare legs, bare legs, yep.

212
00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:11,600
Speaker 2: Even Oh, I know, I remember those days. I remember

213
00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:12,640
Speaker 2: those cold days.

214
00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:24,640
Speaker 1: At one point, you know how at a baby shower,

215
00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:27,000
Speaker 1: there's a tradition, I don't know if you did this

216
00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:29,600
Speaker 1: where you take all the bows from all the packages and.

217
00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:32,440
Speaker 11: You make something in your head, yes, did you do this? No,

218
00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:35,079
Speaker 11: my baby, my water broke it my baby shower.

219
00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:39,000
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's like a TV show, No, I know,

220
00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:39,960
Speaker 1: what did you do?

221
00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:44,880
Speaker 6: I went to the hospital. Did everyone panic? Everybody panicked?

222
00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:48,120
Speaker 11: And they called my husband, who was with some of

223
00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:52,160
Speaker 11: the other guy thing like coming a beer on the corner.

224
00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:53,920
Speaker 11: And we were here in New York on the I

225
00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:57,600
Speaker 11: mean we lived here on the rooftop somewhere nearby. It

226
00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:01,640
Speaker 11: was like April, so it was beautiful twelve years ago

227
00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:04,080
Speaker 11: and like two weeks my daughters.

228
00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:04,800
Speaker 6: About to have her birthday.

229
00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:05,640
Speaker 2: Oh that's nice.

230
00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:09,400
Speaker 11: And they called and they said, and everybody was laughing

231
00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:10,880
Speaker 11: because it was it was shocking.

232
00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:12,200
Speaker 6: And there was only one man in the.

233
00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:14,520
Speaker 11: Room, and it was the cater and he threw paper

234
00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:16,600
Speaker 11: towels at us and then walked out of the door.

235
00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:20,480
Speaker 6: He was just like, I cannot deal with this, Oh

236
00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:20,960
Speaker 6: my god.

237
00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:24,080
Speaker 11: And it was what was even more comedic about it

238
00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:27,079
Speaker 11: is we were in a circle. I was opening present

239
00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:30,760
Speaker 11: right and my friend goes, oh my gosh, she's about

240
00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:32,880
Speaker 11: to have that baby right here. My stomach made a

241
00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:35,800
Speaker 11: weird movement, Oh my god, which I guess is what happened.

242
00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:36,520
Speaker 2: I have no idea.

243
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:39,720
Speaker 11: I have no idea, okay, and it only this has

244
00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:42,199
Speaker 11: only happened with my first child and my water broke

245
00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:45,720
Speaker 11: in front of every single person sitting, and everybody's reaction

246
00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:49,440
Speaker 11: was so different, Like somebody cried because they were pregnant,

247
00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:50,080
Speaker 11: and they were like.

248
00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:53,720
Speaker 2: They just had and had so much feeling, so much feeling.

249
00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:55,920
Speaker 6: Other people were dying laughing.

250
00:11:55,960 --> 00:11:59,360
Speaker 11: So when they called laughing, well, it was like kind

251
00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:00,160
Speaker 11: of funny.

252
00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:03,400
Speaker 6: Because also I was like, what is that happening?

253
00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:03,880
Speaker 12: You know?

254
00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:07,240
Speaker 11: But they called my husband and Barbara and my sister

255
00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:09,480
Speaker 11: and I have a twin sister, right, We've played so

256
00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:11,920
Speaker 11: many pranks on him over the years. Oh no, he

257
00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:15,440
Speaker 11: did not believe, like he thought this was like a

258
00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:17,920
Speaker 11: funny thing girls were doing. And also he'd been to

259
00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:20,319
Speaker 11: the doctor like with me the day before where they

260
00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:22,880
Speaker 11: were like, you have six more weeks, So he just

261
00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:26,000
Speaker 11: was the thought. And then there is a producer that

262
00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:28,319
Speaker 11: works on our show, still now works on our show,

263
00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:31,760
Speaker 11: who I've known all these years, twelve years later, who

264
00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:36,040
Speaker 11: was so lovely and earnest and kind, and her husband

265
00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:39,400
Speaker 11: call was with her, Henry my husband, and she called

266
00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:42,520
Speaker 11: and she's like, real, this is real, and he was

267
00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:44,959
Speaker 11: like listen. Her husband was like, I know, Barbara and

268
00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:47,840
Speaker 11: Jenna can lie, but Carrie cannot.

269
00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:49,360
Speaker 6: So you need to go to the hospital.

270
00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:49,680
Speaker 12: Woaw.

271
00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:50,080
Speaker 13: Yeah.

272
00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:53,240
Speaker 6: Anyway, so I we put the bow on her, you.

273
00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:57,120
Speaker 2: Didn't get to Also, I'm not sure people still know.

274
00:12:57,320 --> 00:12:59,720
Speaker 6: I feel like it was more no a kind of

275
00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:01,920
Speaker 6: like it wasn't.

276
00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:04,120
Speaker 2: Saying, but I just don't know if it still happens.

277
00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:07,880
Speaker 1: So for some reason, Charlotte also manages to get a

278
00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:10,480
Speaker 1: bow on her head, which I really think I probably

279
00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:12,680
Speaker 1: had something to do with because it is one of

280
00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:13,720
Speaker 1: my favorite pictures.

281
00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:14,800
Speaker 2: It's very funny.

282
00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:17,400
Speaker 1: I mean, I also think because Charlotte just really would

283
00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:19,080
Speaker 1: like to be part of this club, you know what

284
00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:21,839
Speaker 1: I'm saying. So then Laney has a huge amount of

285
00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:24,520
Speaker 1: bows on her head, at which point one of her

286
00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:28,920
Speaker 1: friends says, oh, little Sheila is gonna love blah blah blah,

287
00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:29,800
Speaker 1: whatever gift it was.

288
00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:30,360
Speaker 2: And I'm like.

289
00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:34,000
Speaker 1: What and like, you know, kind of a big reaction

290
00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:38,440
Speaker 1: for young Charlotte. I stand up, like that is my

291
00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:41,319
Speaker 1: secret baby name that I told you. She's like, well,

292
00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:44,200
Speaker 1: I'm just really sorry, I don't remember, and this is

293
00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:45,960
Speaker 1: such an unfair thing that I'm about to say.

294
00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:46,680
Speaker 2: But like I.

295
00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:50,599
Speaker 1: Back then would have a lot of trouble separating the

296
00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:53,480
Speaker 1: actor from the part, right, So, like later on, when

297
00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:56,599
Speaker 1: Big has Natasha like I've said this to Britend, like,

298
00:13:56,640 --> 00:14:00,000
Speaker 1: I'm really sorry, I just really couldn't look at you.

299
00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:02,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, I just couldn't. I just couldn't like you.

300
00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:06,200
Speaker 6: I know, it's terrible.

301
00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:08,840
Speaker 1: One of the things I want to ask you about

302
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:12,240
Speaker 1: is a male perspective of Big here because in this episode,

303
00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:15,480
Speaker 1: which is super interesting to look back on, because Charlotte

304
00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:17,720
Speaker 1: was always pro Big, but I'm looking back on this

305
00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:21,800
Speaker 1: early season and being like ew ew because Carrie is

306
00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:24,000
Speaker 1: very connected and very open. We start the beginning of

307
00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:26,800
Speaker 1: the episode and she's saying, like, you know, we're in

308
00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:29,040
Speaker 1: the middle of New York, seven million people, and it's

309
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:31,920
Speaker 1: that great shot where you know, real New Yorkers are

310
00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:34,400
Speaker 1: walking acard the camera. It's so cool and it looks

311
00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:37,720
Speaker 1: so seventies now to our eyes now and twenty five

312
00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:39,480
Speaker 1: right close right, all of.

313
00:14:39,520 --> 00:14:40,640
Speaker 2: The cars everything.

314
00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:44,880
Speaker 1: So they're they're like so united and within this crowd,

315
00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:48,400
Speaker 1: and she's obviously, you know, over the moon into it,

316
00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:51,480
Speaker 1: and we assume he is too, and they're spending all

317
00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:53,320
Speaker 1: their time together to the point where she hasn't seen

318
00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:55,440
Speaker 1: the girlfriends at all, and we think she's you know,

319
00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:59,640
Speaker 1: fallen off the cliff. Or whatever, and then cut to

320
00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:04,040
Speaker 1: he says he has a work dinner, and yes, and

321
00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:05,880
Speaker 1: we go out to dinner with her because she said,

322
00:15:05,880 --> 00:15:07,760
Speaker 1: oh yeah, Big has a work dinner tonight, a work

323
00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:09,600
Speaker 1: thing tonight, you know, let's go out to dinner. We

324
00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:10,880
Speaker 1: go out to dinner, and we see him in the

325
00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:13,680
Speaker 1: corner having dinner with another woman, which I'm just like

326
00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:16,280
Speaker 1: he should have been out then, like, oh, what the

327
00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:21,240
Speaker 1: heck like just because to me, I would feel that

328
00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:23,640
Speaker 1: they were not in sync. That if I was in

329
00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:25,640
Speaker 1: that relationship and I thought we were over the moon,

330
00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:28,840
Speaker 1: not even talking to our friend's level of connected and

331
00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:29,640
Speaker 1: then he's gone out.

332
00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:30,240
Speaker 2: With another woman.

333
00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:31,880
Speaker 6: What the heck?

334
00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:33,640
Speaker 2: Boo out the door?

335
00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:34,800
Speaker 6: I guess, what do you think?

336
00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:40,600
Speaker 13: Well, so here's the show specifically, Yes, he said he

337
00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:42,440
Speaker 13: had a work dinner, so right, a.

338
00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:44,360
Speaker 2: Working I think dinner.

339
00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:51,000
Speaker 13: Yeah, there's a lie, a white lie there. Okay, take

340
00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:53,640
Speaker 13: that away just for a second, Okay, later on in

341
00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:56,880
Speaker 13: the not later on. But I love the way that

342
00:15:56,920 --> 00:15:59,400
Speaker 13: that scene was handled. And it's funny you're asking me

343
00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:01,960
Speaker 13: about this because I took note of it where he

344
00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:02,960
Speaker 13: wasn't caught.

345
00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:04,120
Speaker 6: He didn't play it like he was caught.

346
00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:07,120
Speaker 13: That's true, which is that was an actor, by the way,

347
00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:09,040
Speaker 13: but he didn't play like he was.

348
00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:10,160
Speaker 2: That's a good point. He didn't.

349
00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:12,720
Speaker 13: He's like, oh, hey, maybe a little uncomfortable, but hey,

350
00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:15,160
Speaker 13: this is Bonnie or whatever her name is ew But

351
00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:18,040
Speaker 13: and I just had this conversation with a friend in

352
00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:23,880
Speaker 13: real life. Was there an established there was no situation,

353
00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:26,440
Speaker 13: and there wasn't here was it where it's like, are

354
00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:31,840
Speaker 13: we boyfriend girlfriend? Are we committed? And so you can't

355
00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:35,480
Speaker 13: just assume that one is committed and the other isn't.

356
00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:39,160
Speaker 13: Even if you're getting the committed vibes, you still have

357
00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:42,320
Speaker 13: to have the conversation for sure, but you.

358
00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:43,720
Speaker 2: Just talk emotionally.

359
00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:47,440
Speaker 1: Yes, I agree with you, but emotionally it would really

360
00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:50,320
Speaker 1: hurt me to think that we were not on the

361
00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:53,600
Speaker 1: same level, like when she goes, oh, I didn't realize

362
00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:55,400
Speaker 1: I was in these feelings by myself.

363
00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:56,960
Speaker 2: That's the upsetting feeling.

364
00:16:57,120 --> 00:16:59,120
Speaker 13: Sure, but then you have to take into account the

365
00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:03,240
Speaker 13: reasons why he might not be right, I might not

366
00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:05,560
Speaker 13: be well. There could be a psychological thing. There could

367
00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:08,159
Speaker 13: be something like he's been burned before, he's been hurt before,

368
00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:12,560
Speaker 13: his parents have divorced, he's a noncommittal person, he's feeling love,

369
00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:15,160
Speaker 13: he's feeling women.

370
00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:18,600
Speaker 1: Okay, Okay, okay, but let's say that those Okay, He's

371
00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:21,680
Speaker 1: a grown up, right, He's not twenty five, he's not thirty,

372
00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:22,560
Speaker 1: he's a grown up.

373
00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:29,159
Speaker 2: Okay. So she is obviously open to this in a

374
00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:32,960
Speaker 2: way that he seems like he might not be. John

375
00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:34,879
Speaker 2: is in.

376
00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:37,200
Speaker 1: The first season, which really surprised both of us. Yeah, exactly,

377
00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:39,760
Speaker 1: we thought it was like later on in the run.

378
00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:42,960
Speaker 12: Absolutely, I would have probably said end of the second

379
00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:44,160
Speaker 12: maybe even their.

380
00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:47,560
Speaker 1: Third, which I think of as our best season.

381
00:17:47,640 --> 00:17:49,480
Speaker 2: If we have to pick an overall season.

382
00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:51,480
Speaker 6: Episode for your episode, that's why.

383
00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:53,080
Speaker 1: I'm saying I would put it in the best because

384
00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:55,640
Speaker 1: it's such a good episode. It was written by Michael

385
00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:57,880
Speaker 1: Patrick King, which you can completely tell.

386
00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:00,399
Speaker 2: Oh God, yes, John plays guy.

387
00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:03,440
Speaker 1: He has a real name, is called Thomas John Anderson,

388
00:18:03,640 --> 00:18:04,800
Speaker 1: which is kind of funny.

389
00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:07,440
Speaker 2: Because John three names for three das he's.

390
00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:11,280
Speaker 1: Playing Michael Patrick Kings basically and his own episode, and

391
00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:13,960
Speaker 1: he is called the Catholic guy. That's what we call

392
00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:16,600
Speaker 1: him in the shorthand to the friends, and he's opposite

393
00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:18,400
Speaker 1: Cynthia and they are incredible.

394
00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:21,359
Speaker 2: This episode was directed by Matthew Harrison. We don't have

395
00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:23,159
Speaker 2: a ton of memories about him. We're really sorry, I

396
00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:24,520
Speaker 2: who it's apologize if I.

397
00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:27,199
Speaker 12: Do never remember the fact vivid memories of MPK not

398
00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:31,880
Speaker 12: directing me, but just he's such a brilliant, extraordinary presence

399
00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:34,159
Speaker 12: on set and his writing was so great that I

400
00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:36,440
Speaker 12: remember him and of course have known him all these

401
00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:37,120
Speaker 12: years after.

402
00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:39,960
Speaker 5: But yeah, I don't remember the directors. I know, but

403
00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:41,800
Speaker 5: that's not because he didn't direct a great episode.

404
00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:43,480
Speaker 6: Absolutely, because that's an episode.

405
00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:44,920
Speaker 5: Good director disappears a little bit.

406
00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:46,840
Speaker 2: This is a good point. And you also direct, so

407
00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:49,240
Speaker 2: you know very well. You know very well. So tell

408
00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:51,000
Speaker 2: us your memories.

409
00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:53,560
Speaker 1: And your thoughts about the new it was relatively new show.

410
00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:55,560
Speaker 5: Yeah, is this a G rated program?

411
00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:55,760
Speaker 11: No?

412
00:18:57,160 --> 00:19:00,680
Speaker 12: Well, what I vividly remember is being on top of Cynthia,

413
00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:03,520
Speaker 12: having being in the throes.

414
00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:05,800
Speaker 5: Of passion and having orgasm.

415
00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:09,639
Speaker 12: After or fake orgasm after orgasm, and getting up and sharing.

416
00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:12,119
Speaker 12: And you know, a lot of people have seen it

417
00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:15,280
Speaker 12: in syndication and all that stuff's out, but in the

418
00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:18,679
Speaker 12: I guess the DVD or box set or whatever you

419
00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:20,040
Speaker 12: call it these days, you.

420
00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:21,639
Speaker 5: See all of those sex scenes.

421
00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:26,879
Speaker 12: So what I remember most vividly is being in bed

422
00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:29,840
Speaker 12: in flagrante with Cynthia Nixon.

423
00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:32,920
Speaker 5: Thank goodness. I had known her. We had done a play.

424
00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:36,200
Speaker 12: Together, which is the way you get very into it

425
00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:38,840
Speaker 12: very quickly, is by being on stage together. And we

426
00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:41,840
Speaker 12: had such a great time doing this play and such

427
00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:45,119
Speaker 12: a great rapport and such great trust that we immediately

428
00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:48,320
Speaker 12: threw ourselves into it. And you know, this was before

429
00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:50,320
Speaker 12: Sex and the City was Sex and the City, So

430
00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:53,560
Speaker 12: going to that set and having to do such a

431
00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:58,160
Speaker 12: huge sex scene was really nerve racking.

432
00:19:58,760 --> 00:19:59,399
Speaker 5: Nerve racking.

433
00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:03,840
Speaker 12: So that's my biggest memory is just being on top

434
00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:08,080
Speaker 12: of Cynthia and you know, and then the casual after

435
00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:10,840
Speaker 12: an hour or two, it becomes so casual, like what

436
00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:12,320
Speaker 12: are you gonna have for lunch? I think I'm gonna

437
00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:15,280
Speaker 12: have that, you know, totally both yeah, naked. I mean

438
00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:18,640
Speaker 12: we all had. We've talked about cook socks and all

439
00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:21,320
Speaker 12: that stuff. Yeah, right, right right, And I guess I

440
00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:22,720
Speaker 12: remember the sock as well.

441
00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:24,160
Speaker 2: There you go. Very memorable.

442
00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:26,000
Speaker 1: I mean the thing about Cynthia too, which is a

443
00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:28,920
Speaker 1: theme in every guy that I've ever spoken to who

444
00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:34,040
Speaker 1: was opposite hers, that she has no real fear or self.

445
00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:34,840
Speaker 2: Consciousness about it.

446
00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:35,800
Speaker 5: Yeah. No, she doesn't.

447
00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:39,359
Speaker 1: Thank you so much for joining me to recap all

448
00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:42,879
