Oliver Hudson and Sarah Jessica Parker in "And Just Like That" (Craig Blankenhorn/Max) Miranda cartoonishly struggles with a leather and chain body harness while wearing the finest from Target's lingerie line, only to give up midway through and redirect Che's desires with a dinner offer. While this refers to a scene where Miranda toys with that kink before abandoning it to her relationship insecurities, there is no better instance of an image capturing everything that's wrong with this character. Let me preface what I'm about to say by identifying myself as a tattooed person who appreciates the ease and comfort of full-coverage underwear: Miranda, in her 50s, is a walking, talking strap-on awkwardly drooped over granny panties.
Looking at it from another angle, Che is a person who has been grinding toward a goal for years only to have their shot compromised by their girlfriend's insistence on prioritizing her teenager's boo-hooty-hooing over a puppy love breakup. Find me one of those who isn't nursing a starved ego, and I'll sell you my unicorn. They're a performer trying to break into Hollywood. Their hate club may point to it as observable proof of their self-centeredness which, duh. There are different ways to look at this scene, depending on how much you detest Che.

Miranda, in her 50s, is a walking, talking strap-on awkwardly drooped over granny panties.Ī hop and skip from New York to Los Angeles later, Miranda wrecks Che's sitcom pilot shoot by sneaking a phone into the studio and leaving the ringer on, which quite predictably pierces the silence engulfing a tender TV moment and murders it cold. The writers are responsible for their material, not Ramirez, although the actor reportedly worked closely with the "And Just Like That" team to develop their character.īut Miranda also failed them at nearly every major juncture before and since, which further clarifies with each new episode. The show's writers failed Che at the comedy club in New York and fail them again at The Comedy Store in Los Angeles, where they pop up in the second season. Neither of those was the character's fault. But along with being sophomorically written in Season 1, Che's main mortal sins were delivering a painfully unfunny set to a crowd heroically doubling over with fake laughter and busting up Miranda and Steve (David Eigenberg).

I cannot sum up how poorly introduced Che was as succinctly as Vox's Alex Abad-Santos, who describes them as "an assembly of blue-linked Wikipedia entries on 'queer,' 'non-binary,' and 'podcaster.'" Che's a polyamorous horndog full of swagger, flavors viewers enjoy in other shows - Kate Moennig's Shane McCutcheon from "The L Word" comes to mind. This isn't news to anyone who survived the first season of the "Sex and the City" spinoff, where Miranda distinguished her midlife awakening from that of Carrie (Sarah Jessica Parker) and Charlotte (Kristin Davis) by cheating on her husband with Che, Carrie's nonbinary former boss who hosted a podcast while identifying as a stand-up comic. It's who Che became around Miranda Hobbes (Cynthia Nixon), a former fave who is acting out the worst version of herself in her 50s.Ĭynthia Nixon in "And Just Like That" (Craig Blankenhorn/Max) Perhaps – nah, let's stop pussyfooting and call it like it is. What I'm suggesting is that our mass recoiling at Sara Ramirez's Che Diaz on " And Just Like That…" may be misdirected. The more you think about it, maybe you realize your issues with them may not have had anything to do with who they naturally are, but who they turn into around other people.
Against all odds, this person may be growing on you. It could be at a party, or the grocery store - wherever it is, you take a few minutes to say hello and realize they aren't as terrible as earlier impressions led you to believe. See if you can relate to this scenario: Someone who was once adjacent to your social circle, and who wasn't quite your cup of tea, turns up in your life unexpectedly.
