Yes, that last line comes straight from The Carrie Diaries and it’s clumsy, as are a number of others, but there’s something sweet and engaging about this series even though it’s not so much about drawing hearts on notebooks as it is giving blowjobs and learning to party in Manhattan. But at 16 she has other interests, namely the cute rich kid/rebel Sebastian ( Austin Butler) and the lure of another man – Manhattan. The younger Dorrit is rebelling more openly (pot, stealing, illegal videotaping of Purple Rain, etc.) than Carrie, who is called upon to be something of a surrogate mom. In this version, Carrie’s mother has recently died and Tom is left to raise two teenage girls – no easy task. The Carrie Diaries is set in 1984 and stars AnnaSophia Robb as Carrie, who lives in Connecticut with her sister Dorrit ( Stefania Owen) and their father, Tom ( Matt Letscher).
