Psst: It's Actually Fine to Have a Little Work Crush
It starts small. Maybe you see them hovering around the coffee machine somewhere north of 8 a.m. The first spark of intrigue comes when you notice the color of their eyes. The second is when they opt for an unusual type of milk. Soon, you notice patterns. How they always jiggle their feet under the desk. The strangely large collection of vintage Ralph Lauren shirts they have on rotation. The way they smile whenever you cross paths, and that one time they actually winked. How you always regret not having something clever and funny to say, and instead simply move your mouth slightly before marching in the other direction. Work crushes are a lot of fun. They're exciting, tantalizsing, and carry the potential to revive or reshape your day. For some, a work crush is the thing that keeps us motivated, helping us get from one task to another and providing kindling to an inner spark that is constantly under threat in a corporate environment. Sure, they're distracting. Especially if you're already partnered up. But don't we all need a few distractions when we're in the depths of our daily grind? Well, the writers of And Just Like That don't seem to think so. In the latest few episodes of the increasingly absurd Sex and the City sequel, Lisa Todd Wexley's office crush Marion is presented as a problem. A big one. He looks at her for too long! He has an unspoken but deeply seductive energy! He eats papaya like it's something else we don't need to specify here! And now, in Episode 8, things have spiraled out of control—in Lisa's mind, at least. 'I had a sex dream about my editor last night; it was very explicit and I woke up very turned on,' Lisa confesses while on a walk with Charlotte. 'Why is this happening? I have a really great sex life with my very sexy husband, so why is Marion ripping my bodice off on a farm?' Charlotte reassures her that because of the bodice and the farm, everything will be just fine—not least because Charlotte herself also has sex dreams about other men sometimes. 'But it has nothing to do with reality because sometimes in those dreams, I have short hair,' she says affirmatively.

Sex and the City fans spot insane blunder in And Just Like That episode
And just like that, Lisa lost her father … twice? Sex and the City fans are pointing out a glaring continuity error on the spin-off show, And Just Like That, as the show appeared to kill off a character who was already dead. 'My father died this afternoon,' Lisa Todd Wexley (Nicole Ari Parker) says in the most recent season three episode. 'He had a stroke out of nowhere.' The episode, called 'Silent Mode,' also includes his funeral. Observant viewers were quick to point out that in season one, Lisa also talked about her dad dying, reports the New York Post. After And Just Like That, controversially began by killing off Big (Chris Noth) in season one, Lisa observed Carrie's reaction and told Charlotte, 'I was exactly the same when my father died last year.' Oddly, season two then introduced her father, played by Billy Dee Williams. Now, season three has killed him off … seemingly forgetting that he was apparently already dead in season one. 'Did ChatGPT write these episodes?' one viewer wrote. Another fan wrote on X, formerly Twitter, 'Not And Just Like That killing Lisa Tod Wexley's father twice! @HBO Do you even care? Please pay attention!' A third viewer wrote, 'sooooooo, lisa's dad was already [dead] on [season] 1 ep 2. I guess he reincarnated for a dinner party lisa hosted in [season] 2. now we're on [season] 3 ep 6 and it's lisa's dad's funeral. cancel 'and just like that' pls. put us outta our misery.' When the Post reached out to reps for And Just Like That for comment, a source claimed that Lisa's dad who died in season one was a stepfather. The original Sex and the City followed Carrie Bradshaw (Sarah Jessica Parker), and her friends Samantha Jones (Kim Cattrall), Miranda Hobbes (Cynthia Nixon) and Charlotte York (Kristin Davis) through dating adventures in New York City. And Just Like That follows the friends dealing with life and dating in their '50s – without Samantha, amid behind-the-scenes cast feud rumours, which SJP has denied. Cattrall did make a brief cameo in season two, and Samantha made an off-screen cameo (via text message) in a recent episode of season three. Lisa is among the new characters added to the ensemble of And Just Like That, along with Seema Patel (Sarita Choudhury) and Che Diaz (Sara Ramirez), who was fired from the show before season three. This isn't the first time an HBO show had a high profile continuity error, as Game of Thrones infamously left a coffee cup onscreen in the medieval fantasy show by mistake.

And Just Like That Kills Off LTW's Dad For Second Time
It's fair to say that Sex and the City's much-anticipated sequel series, And Just Like That…, has courted backlash and ridicule from viewers ever since it first hit our screens back in 2021. In addition to uproar over the shock death of Carrie Bradshaw's husband, Big, in the very first episode of the show, the series has been criticized for everything from trying to be too "woke," to beloved SATC characters seemingly undergoing huge personality transplants. There was also the producers' defiant attempt to make 'queer, nonbinary, Mexican Irish diva' Che Diaz a thing despite overwhelming disdain from fans across the show's first two seasons before the character was finally axed ahead of Season 3, which premiered last month. In short, AJLT is hardly renowned for being the most high-brow show on air, however, it has maintained a loyal following of fans who simply can't get enough of it despite its apparent shortcomings. Which is why when showrunners made a pretty monumental faux pas in last week's episode of the show, viewers couldn't help but laugh at the oversight rather than be shocked by it. In case you missed it, AJLT has hit the headlines after it killed off Lisa Todd Wexley — also known as LTW's — father for the second time in three seasons. However, most people did not catch this continuity error until the most recent episode of Season 3, 'Silent Mode,' aired on Thursday, where LTW was shown learning about her father's death at age 90 following a stroke — and the online reaction has made this blunder even funnier. Reacting to an Indie Wire article about the error, one incredibly viral tweet simply reads: 'Perfect show.''some of you just can't grasp avant garde art,' one more joked. Another suggested: 'And Just Like That should really lean in and kill Lisa Todd Wexley's father every season.'Somebody else quipped: 'Jfc media literacy is at an all time lowww It's just not that complicated 😭 Her dad died, (which she mentions in the pilot ) and THEN the vampire that turned her was staked between seasons, which she's grieving. Do you people even watch tv?''literally who GAF like i hope her dad dies in S4 too,' another more theorized: 'Maybe it's a Mamma Mia situation and she has three dads? You don't know.''God forbid a prestige HBO show explores the nature of resurrection,' somebody else tweeted, while another simply asked: 'How could you not be obsessed with this show?' For what it's worth, on Monday, Entertainment Weekly reacted to the discourse by saying that they have just learned that the dad referenced in Season 1 was actually LTW's stepdad, not her biological dad as seen in Season 2. However, considering this pretty important tidbit of information wasn't actually mentioned anywhere in the actual show, it definitely seems more like a revisionist edit in response to the blunder rather than the showrunners' original intention — but I'll let you be the judge of that in the comments below!

Was continuity error in 'And Just Like That' season 3 episode an oversight or intentional? Fans debate
And Just Like That fans were left puzzled by a continuity issue in season 3, episode 6, involving Lisa Todd Wexley's father. The episode centres around Lisa, played by Nicole Ari Parker, navigating the sudden death of her theatre-loving biological father and preparing for a dramatic funeral ceremony. However, confusion arose among viewers due to a line from season 1. In the series premiere, Lisa told Charlotte, 'I was exactly the same when my father died last year,' during a discussion about Big's passing. The contradiction sparked speculation online, with fans questioning the show's internal consistency. Many believed the inconsistency was a script oversight, with one viewer posting, 'Lisa said her father was dead in the first season, how did he die again? Your writers need to do better.' Others proposed alternative explanations, suggesting Lisa may have had a biological father and a stepfather. It was later clarified that the character mentioned in season 1 was Lisa's stepdad, while the father who dies in season 3 is her biological dad, portrayed by Billy Dee Williams in season 2. While HBO has yet to comment officially, the moment has reignited fan debate around the show's writing and character development. As fans debate whether the plot twist was an error or intentional complexity, And Just Like That continues to draw attention for both its drama and its detail.
