Sarah Jessica Parker refuses to watch And Just Like That...
The 60-year-old actress reprised the role of Carrie Bradshaw to star in the Sex and The City sequel series - but Sarah doesn't enjoy watching herself on-screen
16 July 2025
During an appearance on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen, Sarah explained: "I don't not watch it because I'm being cavalier about my relationship [to the project]. I don't watch it because I don't love watching my work [and] myself."
Despite this, Sarah insisted that she cares enormously about the TV show.
The actress explained: "It doesn't touch on how I feel about the experience or how much I care. In fact, it's because I care that I can't watch it."
Earlier this year, Sarah stressed that she feels proud to play Carrie.
The actress has played the iconic character in Sex and The City and the show's revival series, And Just Like That... - and Sarah admits that she's always relished the experience of playing Carrie.
During an appearance on the Call Her Daddy podcast, the actress shared: "First of all, the way she was speaking, like her choice of language, I'd never seen or heard a woman talk like that."
Sarah then explained that she respects Carrie's "curiosity about sex and sexual politics".
The actress - who stars in And Just Like That... alongside the likes of Kristin Davis and Cynthia Nixon - added: "Which is not like me - I don't talk about that at all even with friends. I'll talk about it globally, but I don't sit and share intimate details of my life that way."
Sarah thinks of Carrie as being a "little survivor".
The actress - who is married to Hollywood star Matthew Broderick - explained: "I admired that she was scrappy.
"She was a little survivor. She had instincts to keep her head [up], not always making smart choices and falling short of being the best friend or the best girlfriend or her best self, but I also was very happy that they were writing her that way."
