Kim Cattrall is hardly a shrinking violet. She’s been anything but quiet when it comes to her feud with former co-star Sarah Jessica Parker and lack of desire to return to her Sex and the City role.
But she’s hardly shouting from the rooftops to slam the revival series. And you better believe plenty of viewers are!
No, when it comes to badmouthing And Just Like That, the HBO Max revival has its fair share of detractors. But Kim has mostly stayed out of that one. In fact, a source close to the Emmy winner said she plans specifically to never speak out about the show — or its surrounding controversies.

We guess that doesn’t extend to online activity that is, shall we say, nonverbal?
A fan tweeted at the 65-year-old applauding her for her work on the How I Met Your Mother spinoff, How I Met Your Father. On the new Hulu series she plays the Bob Saget role — an older version of star Hilary Duff narrating everything from the future. But the fan couldn’t help but mention they were “proud” of Kim for “skipping the trashy” Sex and the City revival, writing:
“So proud of @KimCattrall for skipping the trashy S&TC reboot and doing @HIMYFonHulu. She’s wonderful, and so is @HilaryDuff. If you have 48 minutes to spare, go ahead and watch the first two episodes… I may even re-watch them before next week. Challenge accepted!”
And you know what? She LIKED it!
Sure, on the one hand it’s just accepting a compliment, but she’s a savvy one. She knows exactly what she’s doing with that endorsement. Just like she did back in December when the show first premiered. She liked several tweets of this type, including:
“With the #SATC reboot happening, they keep bringing you up. I applaud you for making choices that are right for you. You are not required to do anything you don’t want to do or that won’t make you happy.”
“And just like that… I want to rewatch the 2014 HBO Canada prestige Toronto-set dramedy Sensitive Skin starring Kim Cattrall”
“And just like that… I find myself only wanting to watch anything @KimCattrall is in. This is a Kim appreciation tweet.”
We kind of thought she had decided to stay away since then, but we guess that little heart is just too big a target to ignore sometimes.
We’re also guessing this means fans can forget about hopes of Samantha Jones ever *truly* returning.
What do YOU think of Kim still shading the show after all these weeks?
