“And Just Like That…” it’s over.
HBO Max’s “Sex and the City” spinoff is coming to an end, showrunner Michael Patrick King announced Aug. 1 in a statement on the show’s official social media accounts.
“And just like that… the ongoing storytelling of the ‘Sex and the City’ universe is coming to an end,” King wrote. “While I was writing the last episode of ‘And Just Like That…’ season 3, it became clear to me that this might be a wonderful place to stop.”
The series will conclude at the end of Season 3 with a two-part finale, King said.
“Along with Sarah Jessica Parker, Casey Bloys and Sarah Aubrey, we decided to end the popular series this year with a two-part finale and extended the original series order from 10 episodes to 12,” he wrote.
The final two episodes will hit HBO Max at 9 p.m. ET/ 6 p.m. PT on Aug. 7 and Aug. 14.
King went on to say he and Parker “held off announcing the news until now because we didn’t want the word ‘final’ to overshadow the fun of watching the season.”
“It’s with great gratitude we thank all the viewers who have let these characters into their homes and their hearts over these many years,” he concluded.
“And Just Like That…” premiered in December 2021 as a sequel to “Sex and the City,” which debuted on HBO in 1998. The show allowed viewers to catch up with besties Carrie Bradshaw (Parker), Miranda Hobbes (Cynthia Nixon) and Charlotte York (Kristin Davis) as they navigate middle age in New York City.
The trio’s longtime pal Samantha Jones (Kim Cattrall) did not appear as a major character in “AJLT.”
The sequel also featured several newer friends in Carrie, Miranda and Charlotte’s circle, including filmmaker Lisa Todd Wexley (Nicole Ari Parker) and luxury real estate agent Seema Patel (Sarita Choudhury).
Parker shared her own emotional message to fans about the conclusion of “AJLT” on her official Instagram account, which was written as a long poem.
Parker saluted Carrie Bradshaw for breaking boundaries along with “hearts,” “heels” and “habits” over the years.
“Carrie Bradshaw has dominated my professional heartbeat for 27 years,” she said. “I think I have loved her most of all. I know others have loved her just as I have.”
She said with King, they dubbed “this chapter complete.” She called the spinoff “all joy, adventure, the greatest kind of hard work,” before thanking the actors and crew.
“I am better for every single day I spent with you,” she said. “It will be forever before I forget. The whole thing.”
