Sarah Jessica Parker’s Son James Shares Why Watching ‘And Just Like That’ Felt ‘A Little Weird’

Sarah Jessica Parker’s son, James Wilkie Broderick, is a little lost when it comes to watching his mom’s show, “And Just Like That”.

James and his famous father, Matthew Broderick, walked the red carpet at the 2023 Father of the Year Awards at the Sheraton New York Times Square Hotel on Thursday, and the 20-year-old college student admitted that he had a hard time watching the show — Max’s revival of HBO’s “Sex and the City” series. “I tried to watch the new one and I liked it but then I felt weird, ’cause I haven’t watched the original,” James explained. “It felt a little weird to be watching the newer one having not watched it, even if it’s accessible.” “I guess it’s kind of obvious why maybe I hadn’t watched the original show as a kid,” he added with a laugh. “Sex and the City” originally ran from 1998 to 2004, and came to an end before James had even turned two.

There were also two “Sex and the City” films in 2008 and 2010 — both of which James was not the target audience for. “But now I don’t really have an excuse,” James added. “People ask like, ‘Oh, is that awkward for you?

There’s like a lot of [risqué] scenes.’ That’s not that big of a deal for me. I think I just was a little too young before.” However, with James currently on summer break from college and the new season of “And Just Like That” kicking off soon, he admitted, “Yeah, I’m really running out of excuses.” As for his own possible future in front of the screen, James said, “Recently, I’ve tried it out a little bit.” “I tried it out and really liked it, so that’ll be great.
