And Just Like That Viewers Left Puzzled By Continuity Error In Latest Episode
Things took an emotional turn in the latest instalment of And Just Like That, when Nicole Ari Parker's character Lisa Todd Wexley was left grieving after the death of her father.
Much of the episode centred around Lisa's feelings of guilt over not being there at the end of her father's life, and the rest of the characters later joined her at the funeral.
However, this latest development in the And Just Like That storyline has left some viewers scratching their heads… namely because Lisa had already said her father was dead shortly after the character was first introduced.
In episode two of the Sex And The City revival, Charlotte confided in Lisa that she was struggling after the death of Carrie's husband, Mr Big.
LTW responded: 'I was the exact same way when I lost my dad last year. I could see my rings literally shaking on my hands while I was trying to be so strong…'

Did the writers of #AndJustLikeThat forget Lisa's dad was already dead?? She told Charlotte that in season 1. lmaooo. This show is so bad

Wasn't Lisa's father already dead in a previous season? Now he has been resurrected and killed off again?? And what was with Herbert's terrible delivery of the news??#ajlt#AndJustLikeThat#andjustlikethatseason3

Wait just realised Lisa already confirmed in S1 that her Father was already dead😭 these writers… pic.twitter.com/eIWh0DNJ52

So the writers of #AndJustLikeThat hate writing the show as much as viewers hate watching it because how do they write an episode about Lisa's dad dying yet mentioned him being dead already the season before? #AJLThttps://t.co/mxo1lBQd5h

Exacerbating matters even further is the fact that in between Lisa's dad's first and second deaths, viewers even got the chance to meet him, with Star Wars favourite Billy Dee Williams playing him in an episode where LTW and her husband Herbert host a dinner party in honour of their wedding anniversary…
sooooooo, lisa's dad was already d3@d on szn 1 ep 2i guess he reincarnated for a dinner party lisa hosted in szn 2now we're on szn 3 ep 6 and it's lisa's dad's funeralcancel "and just like that" plsput us outta our misery pic.twitter.com/qnccVVF5r6

Lisa Todd's father died...twice?She told Charlotte in S1 she lost her dad "last year". He came to dinner in S2 👻 (Billy Dee Williams). Then he died, again, in S3? Did ChatGPT write these episodes? 😬 #AJLTpic.twitter.com/VS046FIgGW

#andjustlikethatseason3 is scraping so hard for storylines that they've had to re-kill LTW's dad! (he was dead in S1, but they resurrected him for S2).

This isn't the first time that the Sex And The City revival has lost track of characters who are and are not dead, though.
Early on in the reboot, Harry referred to his mother having been 'dead for 10 years' – although when he first met Charlotte in Sex And The City, almost 20 years earlier, he told his future wife that his mum was already dead, and that he'd vowed to her on her deathbed that he would marry a Jewish woman (leading to Charlotte converting to Judaism).

‘The Simpsons' Upcoming Guests Include Kieran Culkin, Viola Davis, Idris Elba; Matt Groening on How to Liberate Parents from MAGA: ‘Delete Fox News'
Kieran Culkin ('Succession'), Glenn Howerton ('It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia'), Albert Brooks and Cole Escola ('Oh Mary') are among the guest stars stopping by Springfield during the upcoming Season 37 of 'The Simpsons,' the show's producers announced Saturday at San Diego Comic-Con. Also Danny Pudi ('Community'), Adam Pally, Brendan and Domhall Gleeson, together at last! More from Variety 'Star Trek: Strange New Worlds' Teases Puppet Episode for Season 4 'Futurama' Cast, Producers Joke About Their Frequent Cancellations, Tease Upcoming Guests and Storylines 'Bob's Burgers' Reveals Landmark 300th Episode Details, Plus New Halloween and Christmas Installments Also during the panel, 'Simpsons' producers shared a sneak preview of one of this year's 'Treehouse of Horror' Halloween segments. Idris Elba, Michael Keaton and Viola Davis will be guest starring on that episode, which will feature an opening from guest animator Stan Kelly (from The Onion). Among those on stage: creator Matt Groening, executive producers Matt Selman and Mike Price, director Matt Faughnan and consulting producer/director David Silverman. 'I honestly thought 36 was where we were going to end it,' Groening joked. 'No, there's no end in sight. We're going to keep going. We're going to go until somebody dies. When you know who dies, the Simpsons predicts the there will be dancing in the streets. Except President Vance will ban dancing.' What's coming up next is the show's landmark 800th episode, which will air on Fox in February 2026. 'It's a big deal to do 800 shows, and so we're going to be doing two brand new original episodes that night,' Selman said. 'They're top secret for now, but I promise you, they'll be the best 800th episode of anything you've ever seen.' After the recent 'Coldplay' incident, in which the Astronomer CEO and its HR head were caught in a tryst, a deep fake claimed that 'The Simpsons' predicted it. Selman warned fans not to fall for these 'Simpsons predicts the future' memes. 'Who could be so dumb?' he said. 'Of all our 800 episodes we did, that those two dumb white folks — I don't what to call, the takes are done — like, who could think, who has such little reactive intelligence that this is in 'The Simpsons'? And of course, the answer is hundreds and hundreds of millions of people! But when you see something that claims to be a 'Simpsons' prediction, just think for one second. Could that have possibly been on the show? That's all, just think one second and then comment on the thing 'they are magic, they're wizards, they did it again.' Groening joking said he had the counterpoint: 'We are time travelers.' Here were some of his upcoming predictions: ''The Simpsons' predicts Elon Musk will be the first man to land on Mars. Amazingly, he will crash land on Mars. But he will radio back that he is marooned there forever. And most emotionally of all, he will be able to hear the cheering all the way.' Also: 'America will return the Statue of Liberty to France and North America remembers what the word Liberty means.' And most importantly: ''The Simpsons' predicts kids across America will liberate their Republican parents from the cult of MAGA. And here's how you do it. Grab the TV remote, go to menu, go to controls, vertical controls, look for channel list and delete Fox News.' As part of the event, the 'Simpsons' team attempted to play a game that Selman dubbed 'Simpsons Comic-Con Pictionary,' but the technology was not cooperating. Nonetheless, during that segment, guest animators/writers Michael Cusack ('Smiling Friends') and Mike McMahan ('Solar Opposites') came on stage to also talk and ask about 'The Simpsons.' And of course, addressed was the recent surprising uptick in online hot takes about Marge Simpson dying in the show's Season 36 finale. As Selman recently told Variety, she had done no such thing and that what happened in the recent season finale of the series was not canon, since 'there is no canon,' he said at the time. ''The Simpsons' doesn't even have canon!' 'She's like in every episode,' Selman said at the panel. 'There's a new economy of headlines that try to trick you. I call it 'trick bait.' The million headlines saying 'Simpsons' kills Marge, and then even those articles admit it, of course, 'they didn't do we just wanted you to read our headline.' So again, just a little ounce of thinking after you read something make your lives a little better.'

CC Sabathia and his family have a bumpy ride to Cooperstown
COOPERSTOWN, NY (AP) — For CC Sabathia, getting elected into the Baseball Hall of Fame was much easier than actually getting to the Hall of Fame. Sabathia, whose career spanned 19 seasons with the Cleveland Indians, Milwaukee Brewers and New York Yankees, was voted in on his first year of eligibility. Getting to Cooperstown for Hall of Fame weekend activities to be capped by his induction Sunday proved a tad more difficult. 'It was an adventure,' Sabathia said Saturday. Sabathia, wife Amber and their four children left their Alpine, New Jersey, home at about 4 p.m. Thursday. They traveled in two vehicles as is their family custom and were about 75 miles (120 kilometers) into their 177-mile trip when things got interesting. 'We stopped to get food. Everything's going great,' Sabathia said. 'We tried to get on the on-ramp on (Route) 17 and the car just stopped. I was behind her (Amber). Most of the time when we're driving, I'm gone. I'm never driving behind her, but for some reason I was taking my time riding behind her.' Sabathia had a clear view of what was happening. They called for assistance. The family piled into Sabathia's car and returned home to grab another vehicle as a tow truck towed their broken-down Escalade back to Alpine. The Sabathias arrived in Cooperstown at about midnight. What should have been a drive of about three hours became an eight-hour journey. 'It was pretty funny. I was taking pictures. My kids were doing TikToks and Amber was in the back like the super serious person she is getting everything done,' Sabathia said. 'People were honking at us and recognizing us on the side of the road. It was fun for us. 'For her it was a nightmare.' The Sabathias, including Amber, will certainly be all smiles Sunday. ___ AP MLB:
