Within the seventh episode of “And Simply Like That…”, Charlotte lastly will get a compelling storyline that breaks free from her background character standing. Her determination to return to work and give attention to herself marks a brand new chapter for her character, and we eagerly anticipate her private development. Nonetheless, it’s irritating that the present took so lengthy to achieve this level, losing time on shallow and disconnected storylines. However, we’re relieved that Charlotte is lastly receiving the popularity and empowerment she deserves. “And Simply Like That…” promised to showcase the navigation of Carrie, Miranda, and Charlotte via their 50s. Whereas it has fulfilled this promise for Carrie and Miranda, Charlotte has usually been left behind. It’s not that she has acquired much less display time, however fairly that her character has been devoid of significance. None of her storylines have been attention-grabbing or cohesive with the general present, and their influence has been fleeting as a result of present’s messy timeline. Prior to now, Charlotte’s aspiration was to have the idyllic household life with a loving husband and ideal kids, and he or she has achieved that dream. Nonetheless, in “Intercourse and the Metropolis” and its subsequent films, Charlotte had extra to her character than simply being a mom and spouse. Disappointingly, “And Simply Like That…” has diminished her to a background character or fairly, a personality of no consequence. Lastly, within the seventh episode of Season 2, we’re given hope that Charlotte can have a considerable position within the present. Within the authentic collection, Charlotte was a profitable artwork vendor with desires of proudly owning her personal gallery. Regardless of being the group’s hopeless romantic, she gave up her profession when she married her first husband, Trey MacDougal. Even after her divorce and subsequent marriage to Harry, she by no means returned to work. Whereas she did try to seek out employment after her divorce, her over-qualification hindered her prospects. This was a melancholic flip of occasions, as we witnessed Charlotte’s love for her job from the start. Although she engaged in volunteer work, it was not the identical as pursuing her profession. Whereas Charlotte additionally loved being a stay-at-home mother, this was not a difficulty of selecting motherhood over her profession. It was her private selection, nevertheless it was nonetheless disheartening to witness her abandon a career she cherished and by no means reclaim it. For this reason the seventh episode of “And Simply Like That…” was so exhilarating. Charlotte finds herself juggling the tasks of taking Rock to modeling auditions and navigating Lily’s teenage years. She realizes that she consistently prioritizes everybody else’s wants and neglects her personal. When Lily requests that Charlotte and Harry exit for Galentine’s Day, Charlotte encourages Harry to take her to a pleasant restaurant. Nonetheless, earlier than leaving, Charlotte indulges in a brownie made by one among Lily’s mates. As they arrive on the restaurant, Charlotte begins venting to Harry about their kids and begins experiencing dizziness, nausea, and slurred speech. Believing she is having a stroke, she is transported to the hospital by ambulance. The physician reassures her that it was not a stroke however fairly the consequences of the brownie she consumed. After the physician leaves, Charlotte confides in Harry that she noticed her life flash earlier than her eyes throughout the ambulance journey and was dissatisfied with what she noticed. She decides to return to work and accepts a proposal beforehand prolonged by one among Lisa’s mates. Charlotte declares that she is completed caring for everybody and can lastly prioritize herself now that her kids are sufficiently old to take care of themselves. Harry, being the supportive husband, wholeheartedly agrees along with her determination, and we, the viewers, couldn’t be happier. “And Simply Like That…” is lastly permitting Charlotte to unfold her wings. Whereas we get pleasure from seeing Charlotte’s interactions along with her mates, Harry, and their kids, we additionally wish to witness her private development as a person. Carrie and Miranda obtain ample consideration, however Charlotte usually feels uncared for. She has been trapped in a monotonous routine, and it’s exhilarating to see her break away from it. We now not need shallow and purposeless storylines for her. Whereas it’s thrilling to know that she’s going to return to work and have a extra significant storyline, we’re disenchanted that it took a season and a half to achieve this level. If this was at all times the meant end result, why waste a lot time on inconsequential occasions? We love Charlotte’s relationships with Lily and Rock, and her bond with Harry is heartwarming. Nonetheless, “Intercourse and the Metropolis” has at all times been about feminine empowerment, and evidently “And Simply Like That…” has forgotten this facet. There may be nothing improper with Charlotte being a housewife so long as she is content material, however we yearn for extra substance in her storyline. She is able to greater than buying, brunching, and ferrying her kids to numerous appointments, and it’s excessive time the present acknowledges that. Cheers to Charlotte York regaining her spark!
