Remember how Carrie bought an apartment completely on a whim?

Or the plastic-surgery scene!
Or, oh God, Mirandas first day of class?
Carries husband dies, but she still exudes main-character energy (complete with a best-selling grief memoir).
Lisa Todd Wexley has astounding clothing and a devoted husband but never develops beyond an entertaining side character.
And then, at the bottom, there is Miranda.
By the end of the finale, its as though her whole body has been dipped in cheap caramel.
But if you step back and examine the evidence?
This man is loyal.
He loves ice cream and watching TV.
He is sweet, hes supportive, hes helpful around the house, and he isstill hot.
History will look back kindly on Steve.
Winner: SmokingSmoking tobacco or pot is for confident, self-possessed people like Seema and Che.
Even people who quit smoking mostly spend their time wishing they were still smoking.
Loser: DrinkingDrinking too much is bad!
Winner: Unrealistic expectations of alcoholism as an addictionGreat news!
Its so weird how people other than Miranda havent figured this out!

Loser: PelotonIt just cant catch abreak!
Winner: A shifting, relatively nuanced understanding of genderDid the show struggle with it?
Did things always go smoothly?
Theres something to be said for forcing these judgmental women to face their own closed-mindedness.
It was miserable, and Miranda especially feels terrible and says awful things, yet … she apologizes?
And tries to get better?

In the worst-case scenario, your husband of many years has somehow … forgotten how to finger you?
Either way, this is now the least-appealing sex act.
Contra Selena Gomez, keep your hands to yourself.
Maybe enough to convince us all that we need work done.
Never agree to buy a newly built apartment!
Seema is a lovely character, but this may make her a terrible friend to Carrie.
Does LTW get much of a character arc?
Does she have pockets?
You just cant be a cool new industry after youre depicted like that.
We would listen to Carries season-finale podcastSex and the City,though.
Loser: Time, as a conceptMiranda starts a semester.
Carrie writes a book during a montage, which appears to take place over several seasons worth of weather.
Yet somehow Miranda isstill in that same class?Or a different class with the exact same professor?
Or shes gotten an internship?
How long does any of this take?
What YEAR is it?!
Winner: We, the viewers?This show is clearly a mess.
Maybe we … won.
while wandering around in her Grey Gardens smoking costume.
We all saw how things went for Peloton, and all were saying is the track record is iffy.
