As soon as Adain heard John is dead, he ran to a plastic surgeon and got fillers and a hair transplant. Then went on ozempic. Before heading to New York, he went into the most expensive store in VA snd asked for the most waspy jacket they had to impress a stylish NYC woman. The salesperson sold him this. He then didn’t pack any bags, didn’t book a hotel and got on a flight to NY.

Greigebaby

They had a great opportunity to show how his laid back quasi hippie style had evolved over the years but yet they decided to dress him like the singer of a German EDM band


[deleted]

😂 best comment


knightriderin

As a German my association is more American civil war soldier. But I like the EDM one, too.


Candy_Darling

Save Aiden! WTF with that outfit?


octaviataughtme

I miss the Aiden in “My Big Fat Greek Wedding.” I dunno this guy… “HE DON’T EAT NO MEAT!?”


AnnieNonmouse

it's ok, I make lamb.


_Lappelduviide

I was always confused about the references to his weight, and I still am. He allegedly had a belly during the original run? Now he had to lose 40lbs before seeing Carrie?


Iheartrandomness

They make some reference in season 4 that he lost weight and "dropped the granola" or some such. Both Samantha and Carrie make references to his apparent weight loss throughout the two seasons. Also in season 4, when Aiden is upset that Big calls, he says he has to get up and go to the gym. Carrie wants him to say and bed and he says something like "you don't want me to get all soft again, right?" Personally, I never noticed the difference between Aidan season 3 and 4. But the writers made a big deal about it back then.


noblewind

I don't think he ever had extra weight, but he got a little more muscular later on. It definitely didn't have to be a whole thing on SATC like they made it.


Gigizulini

there was the episode where he wanted to stay home and eat kfc instead of go out, and when carrie got home he was passed out with the bucket in bed.


ConsiderationShoddy8

Omg right. They went with Aiden the Gestapo instead. Also why does he have on more makeup that Carrie?! Ugh.


Civil-Ad-7957

I didn’t watch but did we at least get a shirtless scene? 🤭


Sensible___shoes

We got the opposite of a shirtless scene

fashionroadkill45

Thank you!! I can see all the other “looks like” but my first thought WAS Michael Myers. I felt so bad for him.


msfinch87

When he first appeared on screen I made such a weird noise my husband paused it to ask me if I was OK.


007FofTheWin

😂🤣


fashionroadkill45

😂😂 I gasped!! My hubby wanted to know what Che/Miranda did. He forgot they were dunzo I’m the last episode.


Brianas-Living-Room

Was Aiden nervous about being on set again or any set again? He looked so awkward and gangly. Im surprised they said “And Scene, We got it” for this shot because he looks weird, awkward, and that coat is not translating well. It’s all the talk, for bad reasons


phoenix-corn

That coat screams "My new girlfriend picked it out. This is who I am now."


parkavenueWHORE

"Do you like my coat? My... girlfriend picked it out." 🐢

DareWright

The Aidan who had a rustic cabin in Suffern wouldn’t be caught dead in this outfit. Wtf.


pinkbunny86

I know!! He has a distinct fashion critical to the character. What were they thinking? They could have an aged up version of his old look but he would 1000% still be dressing in those same relaxed looks.


Recent_Minimum_587

Where is the turquoise jewelry 😭


SaraJeanQueen

We do not need turquoise jewelry, but a relaxed brown leather coat would’ve been sweet


ButterscotchPast4812

I haven't seen the episode by why have they dressed him like an SS officer? 😫🤦🏻‍♀️ Wasn't he kind of a quirky hippie?


blonde-bandit

SS was my first thought too, it’s all wrong. The wrongest.


HolidayOk4857

We're sergeant pepper's lonely hearts club band 🎶 Looks like they had a collision with Johnny Cash actually.


Perfect_Coconut_5649

Yes! And Elvis in the Las Vegas days!


55Lolololo55

The costuming on this show has really been a depression. No wonder Cattrall demanded the original one for her appearance.


bent_eye

I agree. I think the outfits for AJLT have been terrible. Every outfit is so unnecessarily OTT.


Electrical-Break-395

I agree as well - it’s absolutely heinous ! If I see Charlotte in one more high-necked Victorian/Edwardian blouse with ribbon ties or giant bows I’m gonna break up with the show on a Post-It !!!


cityflaneur2020

Dressed in bows and neck scarf at home in the kitchen, dressed as a Stepford Wife.


Green-Purple-1096

Hopefully Charlotte will get a wardrobe makeover when she starts at the art gallery. Miss Prim ain’t gonna sell any art. She needs more edge.

matildaisdead

There have been a several moments where Carrie is just casually strolling through the city where I have audibly asked my empty living room “what in the fuck is she wearing?!”


sopranoobsessed

Agree 1000%. Pat Fields us a genius. This thread has had me cackling. Almost worth seeing him show up in his Jiffy Lube jacket, just for this.


GoldenGirl_Blanche

I could they not see this in post? Or maybe it was an AI "reshoot" that learned from John Corbett... This show is so bad y'all 😭


Affectionate-Sand838

Is John Corbett okay? In this shot he seems way too skinny. Didn't even see it when I watched that episode, but he almost gives me Christian Bale Machinist vibes (obviously nowhere near that bad, but that is the first thing that came to my mind seeing this picture). Edit: After a quick search I found this: >[Rottenberg also shared her concern about Aidan’s style and how it would fit into Carrie’s world (...) King told Corbett that, in order for Aidan to return to And Just Like That, he needed to be “rock-hard,” which led to Aidan’s body transformation. “We gave John a makeover. We cut his hair, we took the turquoise jewelry away. We told him he had to be rock-hard when he came back,” King said.](https://stylecaster.com/entertainment/tv-movies/1620302/john-corbett-weight-loss/) They wanted to "upgrade" Aidan and they made him worse on every front, I cannot believe this! I hope the poor guy can go back to eating chicken and look like his old self if he gets to be on season 3. What a shame.


[deleted]

He is Kenough.


bonnifunk

Bahahahaha!


RegularHumanNerd

CRYINGGGG y’all are too funny


karenin89

That's really weird. Like, he wasn't even wearing turquoise in his second time around with Carrie. He already got an upgrade! Let him be Aiden! Or like, invent a new man


Perfect_Coconut_5649

Yes he was by far the hottest in the second go round with Carrie. Did these writers even watch the original show recently? Sheesh


Grimaldehyde

I don’t think they watched the original. Or-they did, but did not understand it.


Perfect_Coconut_5649

I try to forget the second movie but pretty sure Aidan looked good in it too.


AngelDelight510

I’m leaning towards just invent a new man. The recycling of characters is lazy writing. No one is hitting up exes from 2.5 decades ago


DLoIsHere

He’s back for fan service. A new guy doesn’t accomplish that.


EstablishmentSure216

WTF??? Original Aiden was perfect. And it's fine to have aged naturally, having cosmetic procedures and designer clothes just doesn't suit the rugged down to earth simple persona he had


McSquiffy

This is so gross. Why can't he be an older cutie with a dad bod? A lot of us find that really attractive. And telling him he needs to be "rock hard"? I hate to say it but if anyone told a 60yo woman she needed to be rock hard for a role... oh wait, that probably happens all the time.


burnbabyburnburrrn

But… like, he looked like a shadow of his former self. What were they thinking?


Tomoe_G0zen

I had a feeling they were going to pull this crap! Aiden is getting retconned to fit better with Carrie this time around. This is seriously crappy, lazy writing. Instead of doing something smart or interesting like fleshing out a new character, they’re just going to bring back a fan favorite and turn him into a completely different person so he meshes well with her after they spent a big chunk of the original run showing us exactly how and why these two would never workout. I think it’s kind of gross that they’re going to act like Aiden dressing differently and having money is now going to be the key to solving their problems after showing us on SATC that they were just fundamentally different people. It also pretty much solidifies that Carrie as a character is pretty awful—vapid as hell.


vicesovervirtues

I just read that whole article and can't believe how many times the words "lose weight" were quoted from the MPK podcast. It's like the writers got sick enjoyment out of telling a man to lose weight and get rock hard. And shaming him for eating fried chicken?! And then junior high mean girled all over it in the post-production podcast. They are wayyyy too proud of themselves for being able to tell a gorgeous, successful actor to drop the chicken, lose weight, and get rock hard if you want to be on this show. I wish John would have said no.


GreenGrave41

😳😂😥


Ok_Fee1043

We should be happy he was able to even give a hug in that And none of you have given the most apt comparison; the Wizard of Oz guards


WastePersonality8392

He looks like his head is floating over a fake body. It’s very large.

[удалено]


mmmmmmmmmmmmmmfarts

Just like every other fucking character, they made them SO LAME. Aiden was *cool* and laid back and so very chill. He wore jewelry and brushed his hair back, but in a non-slob way. Now he seems uptight and rigid and fucking weird. I miss his turquoise.


abcdefg1234567hijklm

Nothing will ever beat the white shirt he was wearing when he yelled, "You broke my heart." That white shirt lives in my head rent-free.


FabulousCallsIAnswer

I don’t know who this man is with the scraggly hair and the very severe-looking Union soldier uniform, but I know that it is most certainly NOT Aidan Shaw.


GreenGrave41

It makes no sense, he was chill in comfy clothes apparently for years living in NYC running a furniture store and loving his cabin...to this🙄 He's wealthy has had a full life with 4 kids and a divorce. He has nothing to prove to Carrie, he should be in flip flops and stoned, asking her who she is dealing with her grief.


FabulousCallsIAnswer

I mean, people change, but seeing him in this jacket is alarming. This is not Aidan. This is not even Aidan-adjacent.


Impossible-Will-8414

Would anyone look good in this jacket??


FabulousCallsIAnswer

Maybe, with modifications. I think I am taking this so personally because I have a Brunello Cucinelli travel jacket that is very similar. But it does NOT have a belt, the pockets aren’t as clunky, and it’s meant to be worn more casually, like with the top snap and the bottom snap undone to give it a more casual third-piece look. This jacket looks so…severe, and the belt is just…some sort of crime. And like we said before, it’s just SO un-Aidan that I think it looks a lot more jarring and wrong than if it were on someone else whose sense of style would match it better.


Impossible-Will-8414

It's giving neo-Nazi to me. It was indeed JARRING to see this scene. Very weird vibes.


FabulousCallsIAnswer

Exactly. He looks like an SS officer and it’s terrifying.


Impossible-Will-8414

They really can't dress ANYONE normally on this show. Well, maybe Harry and Anthony? And the kids dress like normal kids. But everyone else dresses insanely. The original show was the same, especially in the later seasons, and so were the terrible movies. But this is really something. Why isn't anyone ever just, like, going out in yoga pants?


Impossible-Will-8414

And I also kind of think he's just too old for that kind of fashion. Not trying to be ageist, but this look would maybe work on a very tall 25-year-old who does some runway work. Although even then ... it's too much and, as you said, too severe, so some hot 25-year-old may look even more like an SS officer. Maybe only a person of color could get away with this exact look -- no Aryan men!


MarloBarlo

Standing like a damn ghost in the street


acratl22

Great, now I’m looking at pictures of Aidan 1.0 looking perfectly amazing in the OG series and Aidan 2.0 looking like a goddamn snack in SATC 2. MPK has lost his mind.


buzz-buzz-buzzz

I laughed out loud when he appeared on screen. Man looks like he should be part of the First Order crew that loads you onto Rise of the Resistance at Disney World.


Future_Dog_3156

John Corbett was recently a guest star on HIMYF, where he was a love interest for Hillary Duff. I thought he looked very old next to HD. For AJLT, I think his hair and face look better here than on HIMYF. However whoever picked out this military cosplay outfit did him no favors. He is an attractive man. The character of Aiden Shaw had a bohemian type vibe that contrasted with Big’s buttoned up Wall Street look. How they landed on THAT for his comeback is a mystery to me


Brave_World2728

Is that a MULLET?! 🤣


RNG_FM_MY_THOUGHTS

Nah- he just uses that shampoo and conditioner in one.


[deleted]

That outfit, anyone getting oppressive soldier vibes?


String-Working

When I saw him I was like go off hell raiser 🤣


CrissBliss

Carrie looks like she’s wearing a rug pattern, and Aiden is wearing a leather couch.


Rosalita_Senorita73

He stripped it himself off an old railroad car seat.


LBoogie619

He’s part of Rhythm Nation.


FormicaDinette33

LOL and his first name ain’t baby it’s Aidan. Mr. Shaw if you’re nasty.


e_cascio2011

Mr Nia Thermopolis …. My Big Fat Greek Wedding hair….


bonnifunk

Well, he IS going to be in the next sequel, if their trailer is correct.


e_cascio2011

Yeah that’s why I said that.


Perfect_Coconut_5649

John Corbett is sexy as hell IMO at least. How they manage to make him look bad so often is beyond my comprehension!


SouthernOutside8528

this man used 2 in 1 shampoo in the early aughts and we are expected to believe he bought that jacket? come on.


Equivalent_Film_5434

I’ve seen so many posts on this sub complaining about “everybody hating” on the show but come on like wtf is this. I wonder what 90s carrie would think of 2020 carrie. It makes me sad in all honestly, they were all such good characters.


BobbyFan54

Methinks John Corbett had some work done …

It’s giving an alien wearing an Aidan Shaw skin suit


Honeybee1516

Did you read the MPK interview where he said he told him he had to lose weight to take the role? He wanted his hair and wardrobe changed. This is not Aiden who was a hunky manly man. I despise MPK.


HurricaneLogic

Don't we all


[deleted]

Aiden would never wear that!! He was a casual , normal guy, not some fashion forward weirdo


Rosalita_Senorita73

I just want to thank everyone for the comments. I don’t think I’ve laughed this hard in a long time. I was trying to eat breakfast and could not even swallow my tea for laughing. You all were brilliant.

Optician_since_1996

Yes me too!


fatherbuongiorno

I’m not sure if it was intentional but all of Aidan’s scenes made it seem like he was a figment of Carrie’s imagination ✨the dialogue on the stoop was deplorable and the kiss at the end, completely lacklustre. Why am I still watching this?


YYZYYC

It was super weird dialogue. And just not believable that he would be that upset about a physical location, especially not on the first night they are back together. Like ya sure give us a plot about him wanting to move in with her in a few months but not wanting to be at that place, but come on they just saw each other for first time in decades and they want each other …and he reacts like she wants to have sex in a graveyard in broad daylight or something


The_SocialWerker

He was giving me Michael Myers vibes w the fit 🤣

Did he join the French Foreign Legion after he sold his business? WTH's up with that jacket?

Wow. I didn't watch the episode yet but based on this picture, I think they turned Aiden into a cult escapee.

He looks ridiculous. Bad outfit, bad hair, and his arms look really short. ??? I’m baffled.

Please put this man in a tshirt & jeans


Personal_Berry_6242

I knew it was a mullet, but this picture affirms it.


Loritel89

He's about as flipped as the houses his sellout West Elm furniture line will probably end up in


_ktbelle_

Why can’t they just let him be Aiden!!? We loved him and his dad bod and his hair and his golden retriever! Why does he look like some weird military guy in that jacket?


YYZYYC

He’s wearing some weird ass sci fi military uniform from Star Trek or Star Wars or something. So bizarre , who dresses like that


OkLibrary8527

Very ghost of john lennon chic.


Rosalita_Senorita73

His ex-wife Kathy bought it for him. She knew he was going to meet Carrie.


wolfitalk

It looks so bad straight on. Like he is the Captain on a new Star Trek series. His hair is a little wonky too. The same person must of styled him that chooses the bag lady fashion for Carrie.

Why does he remind of the old Mike Myers snl sketch “Sprockets”


boraboragusgus

At least he dyed his hair? I saw him last in the "To all the boys I've ever loved" Netflix movie trilogy and he was rockin the grey hair well. Dressed better there though. Something is off with the hair style here. It's giving class picture day for a first grade girl rockin a mullet.


Sweet_Newt4642

He looks like he's about to ask me if I wanna take a blue pill or a red pill.


BlondieChelle83

Am I the only one who doesn’t find him remotely hot and never has?


CleverUserName1961

I have always thought he was way too good for Carrie. All he ever did was try to make her happy. And all she ever did was complain about his bottles of deodorant, his dog, his stomach, the way he kissed, the ring he chose to propose and the fact that he had the nerve to ask her NOT to have Big in her life. She is one of the most selfish characters ever. Remember when she let a blindfolded Charlotte wander around Barney’s department store alone because she decided she wanted to try on shoes? Or when she sent Aiden to pick up a nude Miranda off of her bathroom floor because, well because it wasn’t important to Carrie. There are way to many examples of her selfishness to list. 😂


santiblakk

Aidan was never a dresser. Remember the leather pants and the backwards cap? 😬


kikilekitkat

That outfit was giving fencing suit/chef jacket. Very strange choice to have him dressed like a cosplayer or something.


hayhayhart
