For having the sense not to have anything to do with this nonsensical turkey. Other then trying to pander to former fans of the original SATC and to milk out a few extra dollars from the franchise I can't imagine that the producers thought this would have any merit or relevance whatsoever. Complete and utter drivel with clownish costuming and a lot of woke babble tossed into the script, well just because I guess that's what you're supposed to do these days. Not just bad TV, but cringeworthy and depressing TV.

Stiff, self conscious reinterpretation of Downton Abbey on the other side of the Atlantic. Dull, predictable and cheap despite the obvious money spent on the production. They certainly didn't get their dollar's worth what with the regurgitated soundtrack, badly rendered CGI and phoned in performances.

I suppose if you're a fan of costume dramas you'll enjoy this but it lacks the soul and polish of DA.

I ran across this on Netflix and am so happy they brought this little Quebecois gem to the south. The acting is so sincere, so authentic and everyone in the show so vested in the screenplay with all their heart. The portrayal of poverty in Canada is not something often encountered on the screen and I have to admit it shook my image of Canada as a land of plenty with its honest examination of the visiousness of the poverty conundrum. The setting is a non-gentrified, poor and neglected neighborhood hidden behind the majestic beauty of Montreal, one a tourist likely would not encounter. To say the show is gritty is an understatement but despite the sadness of the landscape and the lives of the three protagonists the writers still manage to show the humor and grace required to survive such an environment. It's a beautiful show worthy of a larger audience.
