That is, Mr. Big. Very good last episode of "Sex and the City". Though why do the smart girls always have the roughest lives? Poor Miranda. Well done, nice way to go out. What say you?

Good last episode.
Happy endings all around.
Mrs coach said, "does that mean his name is John?"
Let me tell you something, that was one of the things I didn't like about the show...Mr. Big. He was a jerk most of the time. A Big Jerk.
Aiden was a great guy, and she pretty much destroyed him. Twice.
other than that, it was a great show and series, and it will be missed in our household.
On that note, the previews for the Sopranos look awesome! And the stuff I've seen on Deadwood looks really good too.

HOW COULD YOU NOT LIKE MR. BIG? That was his shtick. It enhanced his vulnerability when he showed it. Plus he's hot though I suspect that's not a good argument for you.
Aiden was a frickin' wimp. She should've speared him with a stiletto. Seriously, the only time he showed a spine was when he sued her over the apartment next door they'd bought together.

I loved the ending. That's what I wanted to see, everyone getting what they wanted.
I always liked Big. He was the main reason I started watching Law & Order back in the day, and I was thrilled to see him on SitC. He's so yummy. His character, while a sh*t a lot of the time, was a good one.
Outfrickenstanding show & finale. Sad to see it end.

Well, Mrs. Coach did not think Big was all that good looking, and that Aiden was. 
I guess it's all about women, and their preferences.
I'm just saying, as a guy, and what kind of people they were, who I would want my daughter to date, and who I'd want to be friends with, between the two...it's no contest...Aiden kicks Big's butt.
But again, I'm not a woman.

She didn't deserve Aiden anyway so I'm glad that didn't work out...(he bought her a new computer when hers crashed and she didn't even thank him  )...
Probably one of the best finales I've seen. Glad they didn't decide to leave us hanging or anything and it was cool to see them focus abit on the guys.
And as for that pizza scene...

 Aiden was an amazing guy, just not the guy for Carrie. Every girl has dated an Aiden and wondered why she isn't head over heels for 'the perfect guy'. He wasn't perfect for Carrie. Every girl has also had a Big who was so wrong but so right. Big had his jerk moments but also connected with her on a level no other guy could. We've also been brought around back to Big in the last 2 seasons and he has seen the error of his ways respecting Carrie so much more. It also might be argued Carrie wasn't ready for Big earlier either. I don't know, I think its perfect.
Oh, and Chris Noth is MUCH better looking than John Corbett. John Corbett circa Northern Exposure, maybe....but still.

Totally agree 
I LOVE BIG. 
I was so happy about the ending. They did a fantastic job of creating just enough conclusion to satisfy the viewer, but not so much that you feel the characters are over. You have a sense that their lives are continuing on past the ending. It was the best finale to a show that I have ever seen.
