    • 2023 June 22, Lydia Farran-Lee, “Recension: ”And just like that” – nya ”Sex and the city” säsong 2 [Review: "And just like that" - new "Sex and the city" season 2]”, in SVT Nyheter:
      Man kan förstå att det inte var ett alternativ att fortsätta låtsas som att New York är bebott av enbart vita personer, men utan att ge de nya kvinnorna en intressant båge att följa genom serien blir Lisa, Nya och Seema utan uppenbar funktion – mer än att be om ursäkt för hur dålig mångfalden var tidigare och att försöka fylla hålet efter Samantha.
      It is understandable that continuing to pretend that New York is inhabited solely by white people was not an option, but without giving the new women an interesting arc to follow through the series, Lisa, Nya and Seema are left with no apparent function – other than to apologize for how bad the diversity was before and try to fill the hole left by Samantha.
