“The Carrie Diaries” recap: Life Before Cosmos HuffPost’s Rebecca Shapiro, an admitted and devoted “Sex and the City” fan, watched “The Carrie Diaries” … and liked it! There’s a blonde, curly-haired girl running around Manhattan in mixed prints and heels — but it’s not Sarah Jessica Parker. And I think I’m okay with that. As an obsessed “Sex and the City” fan who dispenses mostly-unsolicited relationship advice that’s strikingly similar to the HBO series’ episode guide, I reacted to the prequel novel and subsequent TV spin-off show with contempt. I still watch “Sex and the City” episodes on TBS and E! on a near-daily basis, and part of me really believes that I will pass by a diner and see Carrie, Miranda, Charlotte and Samantha chatting over eggs. Thus, I expected to watch CW’s “The Carrie Diaries” and mourn what had become of my beloved show. But I found myself pleasantly surprised in more than a few ways. Click here to read the full recap.

So much good TV last night! Be sure to check out all of Huff Post TV’s recaps.

Above, watch the scene from “The Good Wife” that made me flail and yell at my TV with joy. Rest of that recap is here.

For all you fantasy fans there’s Laura Prudom’s detailed “Once Upon a Time” recap and of course Maureen Ryan’s always insightful “Game Of Thrones” recap. In the mood for more Mo? Check out her “Mad Men” recap.

Over in the realm of comedy there’s Crystal Bell’s “Girls” recap and normally I wouldn’t call this show a comedy, but Sydney Levin’s “Real Housewives of New Jersey” recap will make you LOL.

'Dexter' Recap: Talking 'Talk to the Hand' With Michael C. Hall

  • Alex Moaba, AOL TV: A lot of wild things happened in this episode, but the most interesting was the introduction of some weird, incestuous sexual tension between Deb and Dexter. So your TV step-sister who may have feelings for your character also happens to be your real-life ex-wife. Are the writers just trying to mess with you at this point?
  • Michael C. Hall: Absolutely. [Laughs] But not without our blessing. Jennifer and I were aware that the story was moving in this direction. We laugh about it, we shake our heads ... but you know, in as much as there are inevitable parallels, we're both very professional and committed to telling this story. And frankly, whatever's happened with Jennifer and me and our relationship's evolution notwithstanding, Dexter in the first episode says, "If I could ever have feelings for anyone, I'd have them for Deb." I think those two characters have been on some kind of collision course from the get-go.
