So Long, Carrie Bradshaw
Kristin Davis joined Sarah Jessica Parker in the final season of 'And Just Like That.'
"Carrie Bradshaw has dominated my professional heartbeat for 27 years," star Sarah Jessica Parker wrote about her TV alter-ego.

The reaction was swift, with some fans shocked and others less surprised.

"Publicly, HBO Max said a lot of positive things about the show," a source told RadarOnline.com. "But behind the scenes, they're saying it was a gamble that didn't pay off."
Parker is choosing to see the ending as a natural one, posting: "MPK and I together recognized, as we have in the past, this chapter [is] complete."
