The Carrie Diaries Music: Series Premiere
For fans of Sex and the City, The Carrie Diaries series premiere was an interesting way to get back in touch with Carrie Bradshaw.
For fans of songs from the 1980s, meanwhile, the episode was heaven sent.
From Cyndi Lauper to The Talking Heads, this new CW drama takes its 1984 setting very seriously. And thank goodness for that!
