And Just Like That: Did Duncan's One-Night Stand Kill the Spinoff?
SCANDAL ROCKS SATC SPINOFF: Was Jonathan Cake's Character to Blame for And Just Like That's Shocking Cancellation?
The news has left fans reeling: Sarah Jessica Parker and creator Michael Patrick King announced that the highly-anticipated Sex and the City spinoff, And Just Like That, has been canceled after a mere three seasons. But in a shocking twist, one of the show's stars is pointing fingers at his own character for the demise of the beloved series.
Jonathan Cake, 57, took to Instagram with a cheeky post that left fans questioning everything they thought they knew about the show's abrupt cancellation. The dashing actor shared a sultry photo of himself cozied up in bed with Sarah Jessica Parker's iconic Carrie Bradshaw, and wrote: "Wait, did I JUST KILL @justlikethatmax?"
The caption went on to hint that Cake's character, Duncan, might have been the culprit behind the show's untimely demise. "Duncan finally has one night of passion with Carrie Bradshaw, and the show's over...FOREVER??? Was it, judging by this picture, his surprisingly small head? Or something else a little underwhelming?" the actor teased.
But Cake wasn't just trolling fans – he was also paying tribute to his fellow cast members, including Sarah Jessica Parker, Cynthia Nixon, Kristin Davis, creator Michael Patrick King, and producer John Melfi. "You gave the world SUCH joy for nearly thirty years," he wrote. "I don't think there's a higher calling for people in our business. You knocked it out of the park and it's still traveling, traveling, traveling."
The post also included a behind-the-scenes snap of Sarah smiling while wearing glasses – a rare glimpse into the making of the show. Cake's message was laced with gratitude and humility, as he thanked his colleagues for having him on board for what turned out to be a brief but memorable stint.
But what really got fans talking was the subtle dig at Cake's character, Duncan. The two had been building up to a romantic connection throughout the third season, and it seemed like their love story might have been the key to saving the show. Instead, it appears that the chemistry between Carrie and Duncan might have been just too much for audiences to handle.
As fans anxiously await the final two episodes of the series, they're left wondering: did Jonathan Cake's character indeed kill off And Just Like That with his "surprisingly small head" or was there something more at play? Only time will tell.
In a heartfelt tribute to the show, Sarah Jessica Parker shared her own poem on Instagram, reflecting on the legacy of Sex and the City. The montage of photos from the series' history showed Carrie navigating the ups and downs of life in New York City – and it seems like she's still got one last lesson to teach.
As for Jonathan Cake, his cheeky post has left fans eagerly awaiting his next move. Will he be returning to the small screen anytime soon? And what really happened behind the scenes at And Just Like That? Only time will tell, but one thing's for sure – this scandal is far from over.
