Correction: If you watch closely, while they are sitting and talking, Berger grabs the bag and throws it away in the trash can behind him in one arm motion. You don't see the bag on screen either but you see his arm motion grab the bag and move across his body to the trash can behind him. That is why, when they get up the bag is no longer on the bench.

I heart ny - S4-E18

Corrected entry: Mr Big said he would leave for California at 5 pm. Carrie runs into Samantha at the hospital just after Samantha spied on her lover during lunch. After that, Carrie immediately leaves the hospital to see Mr. Big but he's gone already. That would be a VERY long lunch Samantha had.

Correction: He most likely meant his plane leaves at 5 pm. And knowing security in airports these days, he might've left home at least 3 hours earlier to make sure he got there on time.

Season 6 generally

Corrected entry: In the episode where Carrie and Berger are still trying to set up their first date Carrie sees Berger. Berger stops at a payphone and uses it. Carrie runs away and calls Berger at another payphone. What phone did Carrie call? If Berger had a cell phone, why would he be using a payphone?

Correction: Berger is shown using ONLY a cell phone. Carrie uses a payphone to call him (on his cell phone)from outside the movie theater.

Correction: The episodes don't run as one week, the time scale is indeterminate. Samantha is much further on in her chemo in this episode than she was in the episode where they taped themselves having sex.

Kara

Correction: The way I remember it, Samantha told that guy (Len) that her apartment number was 2D because she didn't like him and he was interested in her. It was an intentional decoy.

Sex and another city - S3-E14

Corrected entry: At the beginning of this episode, Carrie mentions in voiceover that they had been in LA for over a week. It's obvious in this episode, that they are staying in LA for a second week. But Carrie never showed up at the second meeting for the Production Company, which would have ended her work with them. Since the Production Company was paying for 2 hotel rooms; it isn't likely they would have let the girls stay in those rooms for 2 weeks for free, when Carrie quit the project after only a few days. And it's doubtful the girls would have elected to pay full price for an expensive hotel in LA for almost 2 weeks on their own, when they had expected to stay there for free.

Correction: Why wouldn't a group of girls that eat and dine in the finest restaurants every day and spend thousands of dollars in expensive shoes and bags spend some money on a nice hotel?

Sacha

Correction: Agree with the other corrections, but would add that Carrie wasn't working for the production company. She was invited to California to discuss optioning her column for a movie. Regardless of whether or not she attended a second meeting, she was their invited guest and the arrangement included a two-week hotel stay, which would be pre-paid. The remainder of a two-week hotel bill is a small business expense that the production company could write off as a tax deduction. Suddenly ejecting her from the hotel would be unprofessional, cheap, and end possible future collaborations and is something Carrie would likely write about in her column.

Where there's smoke - S3-E1

Corrected entry: Carrie meets a politician at the bar and gives him her address "to determine her district." He later meets her on her stoop, and mentions that her phone number is unlisted, to which she responds that it's likely to remain that way. She never gives him her phone number, yet the night he comes by to hopefully pick her up for their date, he calls and leaves a message.

Correction: She might have given it to him or he could have contacts at phone companies and gotten it. Its not like her phone number is a national secret.

Attack of the five foot ten woman - S3-E3

Corrected entry: When Magda opens Miranda's 'Goodie Drawer', we can see a few items including a certain pink device. As the drawer is closed, it's obvious there is only one drawer on that night stand. So where is the 'Rabbit' that Miranda was so enamored of previously? Surely after spending over $90 on the 'Rabbit', Miranda would still be using it, or at least have it prominently located in her one and only 'Goodie Drawer'. (00:10:00)

Correction: Simply because she has a "goodie" drawer doesnt mean that these are the ONLY toys that she uses. Or maybe she used it and it was in her bed still!

Correction: Carrie says she doesn't (currently) have a cell phone, not that she *never* had one. And she may not know how to answer it because it is different than her previous one. Different phones can be answered in different manners.

Ghost town - S4-E5

Corrected entry: After Miranda buys her coffee and muffin, she walks out the front door of the store to confront Steve on the street. She talks to him for a few minutes, and then suddenly Jessica comes out from the same door to join them. Jessica was obviously in the store at the same time as Miranda was, and Miranda has seen Jessica before. So why didn't Miranda notice or recognize Jessica when they were in the store together? (00:01:30)

Correction: Because she is unobservant? I have passed my own mother at the store before.
