Tracking the NYC Restaurants in ‘And Just Like That...' Season 3, Episode 8
And just like that, HBO Max's Sex and the City sequel series returns for its third season. And Just Like That... brings back our long-time New Yorkers Carrie (Sarah Jessica Parker), Miranda (Cynthia Nixon), and Charlotte (Kristin Davis), as well as relative newcomers Seema (Sarita Choudhury) and Lisa (Nicole Ari Parker), to our televisions and laptops. What is summer without our gals talking candidly about sex, making bad puns, and dining and drinking around the city?
Like previous seasons, Eater will be tracking where the gang is eating across New York City, from brunch sessions to romantic dinners to cocktail dates. This guide will be updated weekly when each episode airs on Thursdays at 9 p.m., leading up to the finale. And we're saying it now: there will be spoilers ahead.
Episode 8, 'Happy Ever After
It's Aidan's turn to visit Carrie, and he's staying with Carrie for a couple of days. He's clearly jealous of the downstairs neighbor, whom he still calls Dunkin' Donuts. Carrie is adamant that the couple doesn't hang out with Duncan, her guilt from the previous episode seeping into this one.
Miranda questions her sobriety over a special bottle of Ungava gin from Quebec, but ultimately decides she doesn't want to drink. Charlotte's prepping for an art show that depicts what happiness is at various ages, and discovers her vertigo is back. Lisa is work-flirting with her hottie editor, attempting to coin the phrase 'flirking.' There's also a scene where ripe papaya and kale salads are stand-ins for hot and boring sex. Seema is having fun with Carrie's gardener, but realizes they are very different.
118 Greenwich Avenue, at West 13th Street, West Village
Seema goes out for a pre-art gallery opening date with Carrie's hot gardener, Adam, at this New American restaurant. While they sip their espresso from their table in the middle of the dining room, they watch in horror as someone at a booth puts on deodorant out in the open (that's what restrooms are for?). Seema learns that Adam is very hippie and that his last name is Karma (for real).

We Were Liars Season 2: Renewal status, potential release date and everything we know so far
By Aman Shukla Published on July 26, 2025, 20:00 IST Last updated July 26, 2025, 20:24 IST If you've just finished watching We Were Liars on Prime Video and are still staring at your screen in shock after that season 1 finale—same. It was emotional, twisted, and totally unexpected. And now, like the rest of us, you're probably wondering: Are we going back to Beechwood Island for another round of Sinclair family secrets? Let's talk about what's going on with season 2—because while there's no official answer yet, there's definitely some hopeful noise. Has We Were Liars Been Renewed for Season 2? As of now (end of July 2025), Prime Video hasn't made an official announcement about renewing We Were Liars for another season. The show only dropped on June 18, so it's still pretty fresh, and streaming platforms usually take a few weeks (sometimes longer) to see how a show is performing before giving it the green light. But here's the good news: it's doing really well. Like, number-one-in-over-20-countries well. And that kind of buzz doesn't go unnoticed. Even though there's no renewal yet, E. Lockhart—the author of the book the series is based on—recently said, 'I don't have any news to share about season two yet. [But] it's not a limited series!' That alone gives us hope. Add in the fact that the showrunners (Julie Plec and Carina Adly MacKenzie) have also shown interest in continuing the story, and yeah—it feels like something is definitely brewing. We Were Liars Season 2 Expected Cast The cast depends on where the story goes: Prequel Route ( Family of Liars ) : We'd likely see a younger cast playing teenage Penny, Carrie, and Bess in the 1987 setting. Mamie Gummer and Joseph Zada would probably return, since Carrie's talks with Johnny's ghost are central to the prequel. Cadence, Mirren, and Gat (Emily Alyn Lind, Esther McGregor, and Shubham Maheshwari) might sit this one out, as they don't appear in the book. : We'd likely see a younger cast playing teenage Penny, Carrie, and Bess in the 1987 setting. Mamie Gummer and Joseph Zada would probably return, since Carrie's talks with Johnny's ghost are central to the prequel. Cadence, Mirren, and Gat (Emily Alyn Lind, Esther McGregor, and Shubham Maheshwari) might sit this one out, as they don't appear in the book. Present-Day Story: Emily Alyn Lind would be back as Cadence, dealing with her post-island life. Mamie Gummer and Joseph Zada could return for more Carrie-and-Johnny ghost scenes. Caitlin FitzGerald (Penny), Candice King (Bess), and David Morse (Harris) might also pop up, but Mirren and Gat's ghosts might not if Cadence's story moves off the island. One catch: Joseph Zada's role in Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping might mess with his schedule, but his ghost character makes him a strong candidate to return either way. We Were Liars Season 2 Potential Release Date If Prime Video gives the go-ahead soon, the earliest we might see season 2 is sometime in 2026. The timeline kind of tracks—season 1 was ordered in 2023, filmed in mid-2024, and released in June 2025. So a similar schedule could be possible for a follow-up. But here's where it gets a little tricky: season 2 might not be a direct continuation. There's a chance they go the prequel route, which would mean a different cast and storyline (and probably more time to film). On the flip side, if they choose to pick up from the present-day story—or align with Lockhart's upcoming companion novel, We Fell Apart (releasing in November 2025)—we might be looking at a 2026 release, especially if production kicks off soon after the book drops.

Did Carrie and Aidan Break Up on 'And Just Like That'? Here's What Producers Say
[Major spoilers ahead for this week's episode of And Just Like That.] Okay, the And Just Like That... writers room must be reading the commentary online, because after bringing Aidan back last season only to put he and Carrie in a long distance relationship this season, they have decided to break them up after all. In this week's episode, Aidan becomes wary of Carrie's relationship with Duncan, and that starts a whole discussion about how he still doesn't trust her after all these years. It's a devastating argument to watch, and at the end of it, they decide to break up because Carrie admits that she's no longer "100 percent" in the relationship. Executive producer Elisa Zuritsky told TVLine that the decision to break them up was actually made pretty early in the crafting of the season. 'It wasn't a fiery debate in the room. I think it really came down to the way the previous season ended, with Aidan's family proving to be such an obstacle,' she said. She also said the team 'really did want to play it out in the real world and think of [Carrie and Aidan] as real people, and take them out of the fantasy Disney prince and princess happy ending that we were kind of playing with in season 2. It did feel like too much to ask of those two people, especially with their baggage.' Fellow executive producer Julie Rottenberg agreed, saying that it was not realistic for their relationship to move forward considering everything that's happened. 'I think we all knew their problems were systemic enough that they would not survive,' Rottenberg says. As devastating as this is, does this finally mean we'll get to see single Carrie dating around? A girl can dream!!
