Nutter says he likes the dialogue, the characters, the stories, and the "crazy situations they found themselves in." The show "raised people's consciousness, at the time, about a generation of people coming up in a fast-paced world."
His favorite characters: Carrie (Sarah Jessica Parker), "who was always getting into all kinds of dilemmas," and Charlotte (Kristin Davis), who was "wonderfully naive, yet there's a smart way about her."

Rob McElhenney from FX's It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia will shoot exteriors for next season starting June 4. I hear that one plot has the guys trying to buy the Philadelphia Soul football team - sure, like Jon Bon Jovi and Craig Spencer would sell - and that, for an unrelated scene, Eagles players will be part of a June 6 late-afternoon shoot in Center City that will be open to the public. Details are being worked out.
Drop-ins
Jane Seymour, who happened to be staying at the Loews hotel, dropped into the Mural Arts Program's Wall Ball the other night and was asked to make the closing announcements. Moving speech about how the program changes the lives of kids and enlightens the community. Seymour is spending the weekend in Stone Harbor, N.J., as she has an art show at Ocean Galleries.
That really was Demi Moore, husband Ashton Kutcher, and two of her girls touring the Frida Kahlo exhibit at the Art Museum on Mother's Day.
