The Carrie Diaries (2013–2014)
1/10
I hate this series
14 January 2013
This is from the view of a New Yorker (who is actually living in Manhattan) and has been a die-hard fan of the real SATC:

1) This series doesn't have the typical witty comments as the original SATC. Instead, you get cheap lines like "sausage in the key hole". Not to mention all the clichés and oversimplifications.

2) They put Carrie Bradshaw in Century 21 out of all the boutiques that they could've used nearby (even in the fake 80s). Obviously whoever did this never lived in NYC! Do you know what Century 21 is??? It's like TJMax/Ross/Walmart of discount department stores!!! Seeing Carrie Bradshaw in Century 21 is just traumatizing! Errr... not to mention the missing Twin Towers that should've been next door??? Do NOT make a show about NYC when you don't even know where anything is!!! It's like the Burger dude the real Carrie dated back then who made his character in his novel to wear a scrunchie in Manhattan!!!

3) Anyone who has traveled between CT and Manhattan knows that it'll take at least 2 hours or more each way during non-rush hours. How in the world did Carrie went into the city for a party and managed to get back home in CT in such a quick time in the 80s is still a mystery to me.

4) Carrie was supposed to be left-handed. For some reason, the younger fake Carrie is right-handed.

5) Looking forward... So the fake younger Carrie is 16 now. Do you really want to watch her NEVER fining love for the next 20 years????!!!

Epic fail!
