Sarah Jessica Parker Terrorizes Vulnerable Public by Suggesting That Carrie's a Podcaster

Aren’t we all dealing with enough right now? Apparently not, according to Sarah Jessica Parker, who in a recent interview suggested that Carrie Bradshaw might have become a podcaster in the 11 years since we’ve seen her.

“What is their life like?” the actress told Vanity Fair when asked what viewers could expect from HBO’s upcoming, Samantha-less Sex and the City limited series. “For Carrie, who doesn’t have family beyond her friendships, where is she professionally? How have all of these political changes affected her work? Is she still writing a column? Has she written any more books? Or does she have a podcast? What does fashion mean to her now? How have the friendships changed or not changed, and has her social circle grown?”

Will Carrie produce an episode about the trials and tribulations of being your own podcaster bf? Will she cause deeply low-stakes drama by telling Charlotte and Miranda that although they’re obviously her friends, they’re not friends of the pod? Will Carrie go on Chapo? The possibilities are limitless and horrifying.

Elsewhere in the interview, Parker, who is still awaiting scripts from showrunner Michael Patrick King’s otherwise all-female writers room, says that covid-19 will “obviously be a part of the storyline, because that’s the city [these characters] live in.” OK, but speaking as someone who’s been in New York since the coronavirus pandemic began, Carrie et al totally would’ve fled to the Hamptons or panic-purchased land Upstate, right? Looking forward to watching them all commiserate over Zoom about how awful things have been for them despite never having to deal with any of this shit head on, I guess.
