Well if people want them and the actors want to do them, why would they give up?

Consider the daffodil. And while you're doing that I'll be over here looking through your stuff.

At this point it would either be an idea so bad that its funny or incredibly sador both.

I don't see why there needs to be a spin off, just leave the series alone, two movies were enough imo and the second one was totally unnecessary. Kim Cattrall is 60 years old nowthat's the same age as my grandmother (Yes, she became a grandmother young) she's just too old to be doing the whole Samantha Jones act, she was even considered old back in the hey day of S&TC.
That's just my opinion.

I wholeheartedly agree, it ran it's course. Unless the goal is to go for a dark comedy were her life is so ridiculously sad it's funny, then I'm for it.

Wasn't there supposed to be a spin-off of Carrie Bradshaw when she was in her teens?

That's long come and gone. Was cancelled two years ago.

Yeah it was called The Carrie Diaries. I tried to get into it, but I just couldn'tI couldn't get past Anna Sophia Robb as Carrie for some reason, she just didn't fit the part imo. I think one spin off was more than enoughif that got cancelled (which it did) I'm sure a Samantha one would, too.

With the critical success of Nurse Jackie and Dr House, i think a show for Samantha could work.
They could focus the show on her abilities on her job and exploit more her honesty and how practical she is in her advices and how she is often right.
They could turn her spinoff into a sort of female House. Samantha is my favorite character of the ladies in Sex and tge city so show about her has potential.

No, no, no, a thousand times no!
Samantha was one of the most important characters of the 20th century. Look, I'm not even that big of a fan of the series, I'm by far not the target market, yet Samantha Jones is, IMO, a defining moment in TV history.
The whole group depends on her. She's the strongest one, the one who does not compromise, does not break, does not cry (well, very few times she does). If James Dean defined a form of masculinity for three decades, Sam has done the same for a form of femininity. She's one of the strongest characters I've seen on TV, many times I've clapped when she killed someone with a one-liner.
I want to remember her like that. Not as someone toned down, compromising, settling, or even worse, slipping into irrelevance.
Space For Sale.

Precisely for How good of Character Samantha was she deserves her own show. She could be the female House in a different environment.
House is favorite male character on tv and Samantha female for how they just dont care what people say about them and speak with the truth i love both of their sense of humor.
And because of how different Samantha is from any other female character she does deserve her oen show, for me she was always my favorite of the ladies.

I don't know what kind of story lines they could have planned that we haven't already seen in the series. Some of her story lines were interesting, how she dealt with breast cancer, her relationships with Richard and Smith etc. I just don't know what it could add with her as the main focus and not the other girls.
I guess it would expand on her work. But if it would just be her dating a different guy every episode, which is a big part of her lifestyle, it would get old quick. It worked on the show because it was switched with the storylines of the other girls, but I don't know.
I'm interested in it, I just hope they do her justice.

Sixty is not considered old anymore and the Samantha character was probably even more popular than Carrie. It will make a boatload of money and at the end of the day, that's what matters.

I don't think Sam should get a spin off, it's too late after the series and i don't think her 'i'm hyper sexual and commanding' shtick work without the girls - Carrie (normal and neurotic), Miranda (smart and practical), and Charlotte (Conservative/Uptight and Sweet/Innocent) - to act as a foil to her.

I agree, and at this point it looks pretty sad( as if it was ever acceptable) to have her continuing her antics at 60.

Thank God this never happened. Kim Catrall is nuts and was never a team player. Samantha was to me always the worst character/actress. Her story is over. I'm actually annoyed she appeared on "And just like that" after saying she would NEVER guest star. What a hypocrite

Im sure she did it for the fans.
As if she needs anything else.
