Is it ageist to write scripts that stereotype people over 50?
...And Just Like That, HBO MAX, the new 10 episodes of Sex in the City totally took the sex out of the city.
Darren Star and Michael Patrick King you had a chance to make 50+ sexy and vibrant, and healthy. Like in the real world. They reinvent themselves, explore new adventures and business because they are savvy superhumans living to 100 - unstoppable - still sexy in the city.
But no. You focus on hearing aids, brittle bones, getting fingered, not kissed for a lesbian experience, heart attacks on a Peloton, and life's goals as "getting back in heels".
You took the sex out of the city with ageist comments and storylines, why not put the fucking Sexy in the City at 50?.
Or is it about the costumes? Hmm, because nothing else is working.
Correction: There are 5 episodes on HBOMax, not 4.
