But King clarified that, &#8220;The ongoing storytelling of the Sex and the City universe is coming to an end,&#8221; denying fans the hope of another spin-off. <\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Viewership has progressively declined over the three seasons, according to Samba TV, a viewing data tracker. Its first episode saw 1.1 million US households tune in, with the latest generating less than half of that initial number.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Criticism has plagued the reboot, in particular regarding its cast&#8217;s diversification. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.elle.com\/culture\/movies-tv\/a38964235\/and-just-like-that-diversity-essay\/\" class=\"ssrcss-f6h2dj-InlineLink e1kn3p7n0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Elle magazine, external<\/a> wrote that the &#8220;attempts to diversify fell flat&#8221; while The Guardian called it a &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/tv-and-radio\/2021\/dec\/16\/and-just-like-that-sex-and-the-city-diversity\" class=\"ssrcss-f6h2dj-InlineLink e1kn3p7n0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">heavy-handed overcompensation, external<\/a>&#8221; that was &#8220;atoning for SATC&#8217;s history of racial cluelessness&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Apparent plot holes have also been spotted by viewers &#8211; including the father of one of the main characters seemingly dying twice. Character Lisa Todd Wexley referred to the period when her &#8220;dad died last year&#8221; in season one but in season three he appeared to have resurrected before suffering a fatal stroke. <\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">The show&#8217;s production crew cleared up the rumour, telling The Hollywood Reporter that the first death was in fact of Todd-Wexley&#8217;s step-father.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">And Just Like That&#8217;s final season also saw the character Che Diaz, dubbed the &#8220;worst character on TV&#8221; by The Daily Beast, replaced by a character who works at the BBC.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Fans have weighed in on the show&#8217;s end with comments beneath the cast and crew&#8217;s announcements.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">&#8220;I wanted this show to run until all the characters were in assisted living and retirement communities in West Palm Beach&#8221; wrote one.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">&#8220;We don&#8217;t want it to end.
