What I liked

Cosmos get a song? OF COURSE THEY DO. And with a hilarious and appropriately pretentious 90s Manhattan sound to boot

What I didn't like

Any issue I have is with the original tv show and how those characters never really change. I find them annoying. But this show made me like Carrie a lot.

My overall impression

Laura Wiley is raising her game with her latest show, and this group of talented badass performers, tackling with insight the characters we know (or at least know of – which is enough for this SITC lamen) and finding her own touching way into the origins of their necessity for each other. With direction and choreography provided by Corey Robison, the show moves fast, was built firmly and always stays on the light side of parody without losing its respect for the source material. Bravo all!
