There's nothing remotely sexist or ageist about the entertainment industry, it's just that Sex and the City might be more enjoyable if the cast was replaced with, erm, younger men... Well, not quite, it's just that HBO is reportedly developing a new series based around four Manhattan bachelors... Maybe there's still a Miranda Hobbs role...

The polish on their Razzie statuette isn't even dry yet, but the Sex and the City ladies have already been replaced - with men. Aw, well at least they've had a good run, no point flogging a dead horse etc etc.

 

According to Variety, the creator of Entourage, Doug Ellin, is working on a series about four friends in New York with Ed Burns set to play a wealthy banker who sadly probably won't have much interest in fucking an elderly woman, so not much chance of a guest appearance from Cattrall et al.

 

Talking about the show, Ellin said that it will seek to chronicle the real life struggles of men in this day and age "dealing with shoes marriage and friendships", adding:

"It's something I've lived with my friends. People were thinking that 40 is the new 20 and their life is all set -- and all of a sudden they woke up one day and had no money."

Didn't BBC2 already do a 'male version Sex and the City'? 

  • I never knew, thanks for that.

  • Aw, I like Miranda - you've got me wrong, but why do they all dress up as men...?

  • Four old men. Crouched round a chair. Obvious lack of sex and the show's called Manchild? Hmmm. Didn't watch the show though so can't comment on quality. Suffice to say the American version sounds lame.

  • Leave Cynthia Nixon alone! Bachelor, eh? WhyIoughta! She's actually happily engaged to her lesbian partner, and the two of them are raising children together. Don't rag on her just because she's gay, dudes. Not cool.

    Serial divorcee and real-life Samantha, Kim Cattrall, on the other hand...
