Kim Cattrall Shares Cryptic Message Amid ‘And Just Like That…’ Cancellation
Sex and the City icon Kim Cattrall posted a cryptic message on social media amid the cancellation of And Just Like That… after three seasons.
On August 1, the actress behind Samantha Jones took to Instagram with a short post that spoke volumes to fans.
“It’s the end of a very long week ❤️💋,” she captioned the update alongside a photo of a sunset.
In the comments, Cattrall’s followers picked up what she put down, with one Instagram user writing, “Translation: finally this thing is over (in a Samantha voice 😉).”
Another shared, “Kim, we need a fabulous new series just for you. Real ones knew 😍.”
Someone else echoed, “I want a spin-off of Samantha.”
A different Instagram wrote, “Thank you for your years of Samantha Jones. You’re forever iconic. I really hope you make an appearance before And Just Like That is gone. 🩷”
Meanwhile, yet another fan declared, “I’m having a drink for you Samantha 🍸,” while someone else quipped, “And Just Like That… Samantha sat down to watch the sunrise, took a drink from her glass of champagne and celebrated Karma.”

And Just Like That… showrunner Michael Patrick King announced the end of the SATC reboot series earlier that day.
“And just like that… the ongoing storytelling of the Sex and the City universe is coming to an end,” he said in a statement posted on X. “While I was writing the last episode of And Just Like That… season 3, it became clear to me that this might be a wonderful place to stop. Along with Sarah Jessica Parker, Casey Bloys, and Sarah Aubrey, we decided to end the popular series this year with a two-part finale and extended the original series order from 10 episodes to 12.”
In the wake of the cancellation news, Parker posted a heartfelt tribute to her character, Carrie Bradshaw, on Instagram.
“AJLT was all joy, adventure, the greatest kind of hard work alongside the most extraordinary talent of 380 that includes all the brilliant actors who joined us,” she wrote in part. I am better for every single day I spent with you. It will be forever before I forget. The whole thing. Thank you all. I love you so. I hope you love these final two episodes as much as we all do.”
Cynthia Nixon (Miranda Hobbes) reposted Parker’s video on her IG Stories, declaring, “I could watch this again and again. Thank you @sarahjessicaparker (& our gorgeous cast & crew) for the quarter century of memories and friendships.”
Meanwhile, Kristin Davis (Charlotte York) wrote via Instagram, “I am profoundly sad. I love our whole beautiful cast and crew. 400 artisans working so hard on our show with deep love. And to our loyal fans, we love you forever and ever.”
The series finale of And Just Like That…will be released on HBO Max on August 14.

Even though I'm a huge fan of Samantha, the truth is And Just Like That has lasted longer than any series Kim Cattrall has done since Sex and the City. When you're the only one who refuses to be part of something that successful, it's hard not to wonder if maybe you're the problem after al!.

AJLT was horrible, woke and felt like porn, which I'm not interested in. Trashy and ridiculous. Kim was right to not be a part of it. Glad it's ended

You must not have enjoyed the original SATC series or films. Samantha was always woke and had the most graphic sex scenes.

I think this article was just nonsense. Her post was a nothing. She washed her hands of the series and it was fine without her. I enjoyed AJLT and am sorry to see it end.

She was smart enough to steer clear of that mess.

AJLT has been dismal and disappointing at best. Time to RIP.

Thank god that disaster is finally over. Horrible reboot of an iconic show. They should have left well enough alone. Truly awful. Happy to see it gone & hopefully soon forgotten. Kim was wise to stay out of that mess.

I made it through the first episode of Season 1. Truly horrible and nothing but a paycheck and vanity project for SJP. The WORST.

I'm so mad at myself for clicking this headline and wasting my time with such a silly little article. The clickbait headline may have worked this time, but I'll just block the source from my Google feed as soon as I'm done this comment.

Too much going on. Really not the same without Samantha. She could not be replaced. But I still supported ajlt but won't be too sad it's ending!

My favorite Kim Cattrall movie moment was her singing Nilsson's "I Guess The Lord Must Be In New York City" while upside down.

The show had no substance. Just everyone doing everyone. Fell flat with no bite in the storyline and the characters were all blah.
