We Couldn’t Help But Wonder – A Journey Through Sex and the City
Mike Jensen has seen the Sex and the City series many times. Elise Castle has never seen a single episode.
“We Couldn’t Help But Wonder” what would happen if these two went on an episode by episode journey through the whole series.
Join us as Mike watches for the (insert embarrassing number here) time and Elise is watching for the very first. We will discuss how the series holds up almost 20 years later, our own experiences living in NYC, and the debate over too much cranberry juice in the Cosmopolitan.

Big is back in town, but it's not just to have dinner with Carrie. The issue of how to introduce Steve to Miranda's new boyfriend takes care of itself.

S6 Ep10: Boy, Interrupted
Sep 08, 2019
Show notes
This one is all about High School. Carrie meets up with her High School sweetheart and finds out that the spark is still there. Samantha tells a lie so she can hang with the cool kids. Miranda has a crush but he might be into a cheerleader. And Charlotte finds out something about Marcus right before he and Stanford are supposed to go to the prom! Drama!
S6 Ep9: A Woman's Right To Shoes
Sep 01, 2019
Show notes
Mike doesn't love this episode. Miranda gets to know the hot new guy in her building, which is great, even though Elise just thinks it's a distraction from Steve. Charlotte has an issue with Harry and addresses it, which is basically the healthiest thing that has ever happened on this show. But then Carrie deals with a shoe shaming Mom and Samantha has a very messy lunch. This episode is enraging. Enjoy.
S6 Ep8: The Catch
Aug 25, 2019
Show notes
It's another incredibly quickly put together wedding day for Charlotte! Carrie ends up regretting a hook up with the best man, Miranda hides from Steve's new girlfriend, and Samantha is getting used to having Smith around. Plus Michelle Branch!
S6 Ep7: The Post-It Always Sticks Twice
Aug 18, 2019

It's just a few hours from where we left off in the previous episode and two of the girls have major news. Charlotte is engaged to Harry, and Berger broke up with Carrie via a Post-It. Samantha has some advice for how Smith should handle relationship questions in his first big TV appearance, and Miranda has an epiphany after fitting into her "skinny" jeans.
S6 Ep6: Hop, Skip, and a Week
Aug 11, 2019
Show notes
There's a lot of change happening here. Samantha is helping to turn Smith into star, Miranda has to make some changes either at work or at home, and Carrie and Charlotte find themselves in surprising places in both of their relationships. Also, Peter Hermann...
S6 Ep5: Lights, Camera, Relationship
Aug 04, 2019
Show notes
Carrie and Berger take a big step, and Carrie discovers a secret Berger is keeping. Samantha decides to help Jerry pursue his passion. Charlotte deals with the aftermath of her breakup. And Miranda f@#ks up Debbie "B." It's hilarious and heartbreaking.
S6 Ep4: Pick-a-Little, Talk-a-Little
Jul 28, 2019
Show notes
Berger meets the girls, Samantha learns something real about Jerry, Charlotte makes dinner, Carrie and Berger use the "L" word and Miranda tries out a new catch phrase. Some of it goes okay, some of it goes great, and some of it goes very not well.
S6 Ep3: The Perfect Present
Jul 21, 2019
Show notes
Carrie goes to Berger's apartment for the first time, Samantha hooks up with the Raw waiter again, Charlotte converts, and Miranda also has a story line, but here's what this episode is really about. Who do you think Elise thinks costarred with David Duchovny on the X-Files? You have until the final moments of this episode to guess.
