Max (formerly HBO Max) is currently streaming the highly anticipated second season of And Just Like That, the spinoff series of the iconic Sex and the City franchise. This season marks the 25th anniversary of the fashionable franchise, making it an even more significant event for fans.
The season two finale of And Just Like That is set to air on Thursday, Aug. 24, and fans have been eagerly awaiting the return of Kim Cattrall’s character, Samantha. The details of Samantha’s scene, which is believed to be with Sarah Jessica Parker’s character, Carrie, have been closely guarded, creating even more anticipation. However, fans no longer have to wait to see the two beloved characters reunite.
CLAIM: 7-Day Free Trial to Max (formerly HBO Max)
You can watch the And Just Like That finale both on TV and online through Max. If you don’t currently have a subscription to Max, Amazon is offering a 7-day free trial to Max through its Prime Video hub. This means you can stream Cattrall’s highly anticipated return on the AJLT season two finale for free without cable.
The original Sex and the City series debuted on June 6, 1998, and since then, it has been followed by six seasons and two movies. The second season of AJLT picks up more than a year after the sudden death of Big (played by Chris Noth). The focus of the season is on Carrie Bradshaw (played by Sarah Jessica Parker) as she tries to move on from the loss. In the latest trailer, she is seen reconnecting with her former flame, Aiden Shaw (played by John Corbett). The trailer also hints at Miranda Hobbes (played by Cynthia Nixon) deepening her relationship with Ché (played by Sara Ramírez), while Charlotte York Goldenblatt (played by Kristin Davis) provides comic relief as she tries to balance motherhood and her career. Notably missing from the trailer is the long-awaited cameo by Kim Cattrall, who is reprising her role as Samantha Jones.
The series also features Sarita Choudhury as Seema Patel, Nicole Ari Parker as Lisa Todd Wexley, and Karen Pittman as Dr. Nya Wallace.

If you want to keep up with the latest episodes of Sex and the City and And Just Like That, here’s how you can watch it online. Both the first and second episodes of AJLT premiered on Thursday, June 22, on Max. Subsequent episodes are released on a weekly basis, every Thursday, with the finale set to stream on Aug. 24. Since the series is exclusive to the Warner Bros. Discovery-owned streaming service, you will need a subscription to Max (starting at $9.99/month) in order to watch it. Max offers plans with and without ads, both of which give you access to the entire Sex and the City library, as well as other original shows and award-winning series like The Idol, Succession, The Last of Us, Game of Thrones, House of the Dragon, The White Lotus, and Euphoria, among others. Additionally, Max subscriptions include access to several Oscar-nominated films like Elvis, The Banshees of Inisherin, and The Matrix Resurrections, as well as the entire Harry Potter franchise, including the Return to Hogwarts 20th anniversary special.
Max offers three subscription options: the ad-based package for $10 monthly or $100 per year, the ad-free tier for $15 monthly or $150 annually, and the newly-launched Ultimate ad-free plan for $20 per month or $200 per year. While all three plans provide access to hundreds of TV shows and movies in HD, only the ad-free packages allow you to download content, watch select movies in 4K HD, and stream on two to four devices simultaneously, depending on the plan you choose. Those who are Amazon Prime members can also take advantage of a 7-day free trial to Max, allowing them to watch the latest episodes of And Just Like That for free.
If you’re interested in catching up on the previous seasons of Sex and the City or watching the movies, both Max plans offer all six seasons of the original series, as well as the two film sequels: Sex and the City: The Movie (2008) and Sex and the City 2 (2010). Cord cutters and those looking to explore different streaming options can also add Max to their existing streaming video-on-demand and live TV services, such as DirecTV, Hulu, and Amazon Prime Video, to gain access to the films and original series. Alternatively, these movies and series are also available for purchase or rental on Prime Video.
In conclusion, And Just Like That season two is now available for streaming on Max, allowing fans to reunite with their favorite Sex and the City characters.
