And just like that, Lisa lost her father … twice?
Sex and the City fans are pointing out a glaring continuity error on the spin-off show, And Just Like That, as the show appeared to kill off a character who was already dead.
“My father died this afternoon,” Lisa Todd Wexley (Nicole Ari Parker) says in the most recent season three episode. “He had a stroke out of nowhere.”
The episode, called “Silent Mode,” also includes his funeral. Observant viewers were quick to point out that in season one, Lisa also talked about her dad dying, reports the New York Post.
After And Just Like That, controversially began by killing off Big (Chris Noth) in season one, Lisa observed Carrie’s reaction and told Charlotte, “I was exactly the same when my father died last year.”
Oddly, season two then introduced her father, played by Billy Dee Williams.
Now, season three has killed him off … seemingly forgetting that he was apparently already dead in season one.
“Did ChatGPT write these episodes?” one viewer wrote.
Another fan wrote on X, formerly Twitter, “Not And Just Like That killing Lisa Tod Wexley’s father twice! @HBO Do you even care? Please pay attention!”
A third viewer wrote, “sooooooo, lisa’s dad was already [dead] on [season] 1 ep 2. I guess he reincarnated for a dinner party lisa hosted in [season] 2. now we’re on [season] 3 ep 6 and it’s lisa’s dad’s funeral. cancel ‘and just like that’ pls. put us outta our misery.”
When the Post reached out to reps for And Just Like That for comment, a source claimed that Lisa’s dad who died in season one was a stepfather.
The original Sex and the City followed Carrie Bradshaw (Sarah Jessica Parker), and her friends Samantha Jones (Kim Cattrall), Miranda Hobbes (Cynthia Nixon) and Charlotte York (Kristin Davis) through dating adventures in New York City.
And Just Like That follows the friends dealing with life and dating in their ‘50s – without Samantha, amid behind-the-scenes cast feud rumours, which SJP has denied.
Cattrall did make a brief cameo in season two, and Samantha made an off-screen cameo (via text message) in a recent episode of season three.
Lisa is among the new characters added to the ensemble of And Just Like That, along with Seema Patel (Sarita Choudhury) and Che Diaz (Sara Ramirez), who was fired from the show before season three.
This isn’t the first time an HBO show had a high profile continuity error, as Game of Thrones infamously left a coffee cup onscreen in the medieval fantasy show by mistake.
