Okay, let's talk about *that* scene in Just Like That... You know the one. The one where Big, Carrie Bradshaw's on-again, off-again, forever love, suddenly... well, isn't anymore. It was shocking, right?
But how did it all go down? It's pretty simple, actually. He's just finished an intense Peloton workout.
The Setup: A Healthy(ish) Lifestyle
Big, ever the stylish one, is all about appearances. He wants to keep that youthful glow and those dapper suits fitting just right. So, he's on the Peloton.
We see him cycling away, seemingly fine. He even exchanges a playful glance with his instructor, Allegra.
The Heart Attack
Then, bam! He clutches his shoulder. We all know this isn't good news. Not good news at all.
He collapses. No time for a witty remark or a heartfelt goodbye to Carrie. Just gone.
Why Was This So Captivating?
Let's be honest, we were all hooked! Why? First, the unexpectedness of it all. The show was being marketed as a fun reboot, and no one saw this coming.
Secondly, it was *Big*! This wasn't just some random character. This was THE Big. He was the love of Carrie's life (or one of them, anyway!).
The death of a significant character always creates buzz. People love to talk about it. Think about it: Remember when Ned Stark lost his head in *Game of Thrones*? Same principle!
The Impact: More Than Just Tears
Big's death wasn't just about the sadness. It set the stage for the entire series. It gave Carrie a new journey to embark on.
It was a chance to see how she coped with grief and loss. It gave other characters chances to step up.
The drama! The speculation! The fashion! It was all perfectly crafted to get people talking.
Controversy and the Peloton
The way Big died actually caused a bit of an uproar. Peloton was not happy. They felt the show portrayed their bike in a negative light.
Peloton even created their own ad to counteract the show's depiction. It was a whole thing!
All the controversy just added to the buzz. It kept *Just Like That...* in the headlines and on everyone's minds.
Is *Just Like That...* Worth Watching?
Absolutely! Even if you know about Big's fate. The show has a lot more to offer than just one shocking death. There are new characters, old friends, and, of course, plenty of fashion.
Seeing Carrie navigate life after Big is fascinating. It's a show about reinvention and finding happiness after loss.
And honestly, even if you don't love the show, you'll have plenty to discuss with your friends. Grab some cosmos and enjoy the ride!
So, if you are looking for a conversation starter, check out Just Like That... because it is a show about life, love, and loss and makes great television.
