'I know others have loved her just as I have, been frustrated, condemned and rooted for her.
'The symphony of all those emotions has been the greatest soundtrack and most consequential companion, therefore the most sentimental and profound gratitude and lifetime of debt, to you all.

He said: 'And just like that… the ongoing storytelling of the Sex And The City universe is coming to an end.
'While I was writing the last episode of And Just Like That season 3, it became clear to me that this might be a wonderful place to stop.
'Along with Sarah Jessica Parker, Casey Bloys (HBO chief executive) and Sarah Aubrey, we decided to end the popular series this year with a two-part finale and extended the original series order from 10 episodes to 12.
'SJP (Sarah Jessica Parker) and I held off announcing the news until now because we didn't want the word 'final' to overshadow the fun of watching the season.
'It's with great gratitude we thank all the viewers who have let these characters into their homes and their hearts over these many years.'

'And to our loyal fans, we love you forever and ever.'
The original Sex And The City show follows Carrie and her three friends Samantha Jones (Kim Cattrall), Charlotte and Miranda Hobbes (Cynthia Nixon), and their dating lives, friendships and femininity.

Stephen Colbert lands new late-night gig

Stephen Colbert, the host of The Late Show, is getting a new late-night gig – albeit a fictional one. He is confirmed to guest star in the forthcoming third season of the crime comedy series Elsbeth, portraying Scotty Bristol, the host of a fictional late-night talk show. His appearance was specifically written for him and was reportedly orchestrated by his new co-star, Wendell Pierce, with the episode thought to have already been filmed. The Late Show with Stephen Colbert is scheduled to conclude in May 2026, with CBS stating the decision was financial. However, speculation suggests the cancellation may be linked to appeasing President Donald Trump, following Colbert's critical comments about a settlement involving Trump and Paramount's need for FCC approval for a major sale.
