It seems like Che is right here to remain.

The Season 1 finale of “And Simply Like That” takes a stunning flip when Miranda decides to depart New York Metropolis with the web’s most hated character, Che Diaz. 

Within the episode, out Thursday on HBO Max, Miranda (Cynthia Nixon), goes to what she believes is a dinner to fulfill the household of her non-binary lover, Che. In actuality, Che takes Miranda to a crowded nightclub and will get on the stage to sing a tune. A confused Miranda stands within the crowd and says, “What is going on?”

Miranda initially appears displeased that Che didn't inform her this information privately, however Che tells her that they solely simply discovered.

“You had time to place collectively a band and a tune and apply,” Miranda factors out, after Che’s efficiency, to which Che responds, “What can I say, I’m a f–king narcissist.”

Simply when it looks like “And Simply Like That” is lastly recognizing that Che is an unbearable character and is eliminating them, the tide turns: Che asks Miranda to come back with them to LA, and Miranda agrees — even ditching out on a prestigious internship to do it. 

“I’m going to be in LA with Che, I’m in love!” a smiling Miranda tells her skeptical friends. Carrie questions her selection however maintains that she is “not judging” and is joyful for her. 

Ever since “And Simply Like That” premiered on Dec. 9, Che Diaz — a queer podcaster/comic who's the primary non-binary character within the “Intercourse and the Metropolis” universe — has develop into a personality who has sparked outrage amongst viewers.

Memes have sprung up on-line evaluating Che displaying up in any given location to scary moments from horror motion pictures. A number of creators of these memes advised The Submit that the rationale Che will get a lot hate is that they arrive throughout as inauthentic and insulting to actual non-binary folks. 

“All of us had one thing to say about how annoying Che Diaz is in it,” author Atif Riaz, who lives in Texas, advised The Submit, whereas viewer Mackenzie Oravec described Che’s stand-up comedy as seeming like an “AI generated monologue for a queer individual.”

Ryan Bailey, podcast host of “So Unhealthy It’s Good With Ryan Bailey,” advised The Submit that other than Che coming throughout as “cringey,” their relationship with Miranda simply appeared flawed.

“I really feel horrible about Che and Miranda collectively,” he stated. “We grew up liking Steve and Miranda! I’m all for sexual exploration, however I've a gentle spot for Steve. I’m all for Miranda feeling alive once more, however you root for folks on these reveals like on sports activities groups, and I’m sort of on Steve’s aspect.”

So, the Season 1 finale of “And Simply Like That” appeared to appreciate that Che will not be working as a personality, and the answer was to ship them off to LA. However, not so quick. The present then swerved and tied Miranda’s story to Che’s. By doing this, it looks like Che could possibly be right here to remain, in the probably occasion the present is renewed

Though a Season 2 has not formally been introduced but, Sarah Jessica Parker confirmed that she’s been speaking to exec producer Michael Patrick King about it, saying, “There seems like there’s momentum.” However whether or not or not Che returns, there’s one key character who gained’t. King advised Selection, “I've no reasonable expectation of Kim Cattrall ever showing once more.”
