Sex and the Brooklyn
It makes you wonder: Now that much of Manhattan has turned into a theme park version of “Sex and the City,” would Carrie Bradshaw and the gang still live on the island? Probably not, since Manhattan is as played out as a pair of last season’s Manolos. “It’s expensive, and it’s not what it used…
It makes you wonder: Now that much of Manhattan has turned into a theme park version of “Sex and the City,” would Carrie Bradshaw and the gang still live on the island? Probably not, since Manhattan is as played out as a pair of last season’s Manolos. “It’s expensive, and it’s not what it used to be,” Sarah Jessica Parker tells the Daily News. “That’s why the outer boroughs are so desirable. The outer boroughs are pretty sexy. It’s just a matter of time before they have their own shows.” According to the article, “If ‘Sex’ were starting over today, Carrie would rock out Carroll Gardens. BFF Miranda started out in Park Slope, but later, she’s bound to settle down with Steve, Brady and a brand new car in spacious Red Hook,” while Samantha would roost in Long Island City and Charlotte would play house in Riverdale. The article has quotes from Brooklyn residents who say stuff like, “Carroll Gardens or Williamsburg have a little bit of the hip edge that Carrie has, so she’d be able to get away with her funky outfits and no one would think twice about it.” Hip, edgy, less expensive than Manhattan: You heard it here first, folks. Also, the apocalypse is nigh.

My bad! Charlotte DID marry a JEW on the show. His name was Harry. What the heck was she thinking? Oy Vey!
Miranda would never, ever move to Red Hook – she couldn’t tolerate the snarky hipster dufus types with their little RISD degrees and their trust funds. Maybe Ditmas or Lefferts, definitely not Red Hook.
“Note to the wankers If I ever see in the street you get punched in the face! No question asked!” PLEASE somebody explain to me how this is entertaining…PLEASE!!! Note to the haters; another off-topic post by The Whatever.

“a show that somewhat accurately described some of the idiosyncracies of living in NYC”
Yes, it was somewhat accurate that a woman with a part-time writing gig for a weekly paper could afford a one bedroom on the Upper East Side, to buy dozens of designer shoes and dresses, and eat and drink in the most expensive restaurants in the city. In the way that “The Flintstones” somewhat accurately described life on Earth in 1000 B.C.
Has anyone seen that show The Real Housewives of New York City?
Talk about scary.
That Brooklyn couple is psycho!
They are so IN LOVE on that show (in a gross way) and they live in Boreum Hill and my friend said she just saw the husband out at a bar on Atlantic WITH ANOTHER WOMAN!!!!
The horror.
Seriously this Blog has turned to crap!! If you look the traffic has dropped off big time. BS topics like this one (Sex and the Brooklyn) and the wankers have taken over. People used to say I was hijacking threads, these 3 Asshats (Yes Asshats) have nothing on me. Bring back the text spammer!
This Blog has “Jumped The Shark”
I can call him Brownstoner “The Fonz”
The What
Someday this war is gonna end…
Note to the wankers If I ever see in the street you get punched in the face! No question asked!
“You don’t have to imagine what it would be like to have air-headed bimbos like Carrie, Samantha, etc. tottering down the street in their stiletto heels. I’ve been in Park Slope, Carrol Gardens, etc. on a Saturday night and they’re already there.”
Not really (I know I am always on the lookout for an air-headed bimbo in stilletos) and the few you might see in Brooklyn definitly don’t live here – unless they are from Bay Ridge and that is a different kind of women then the SITC chicks
sorry..i meant 12:44
