Are You A Charlotte?
We Meet Anthony with Mario Cantone... (S3 E11 "Running with Scissors")
19 Jan 2026
Chapter 1: What scene did Mario Cantone's character first appear in on Sex and the City?
This is an iHeart Podcast. Guaranteed human. Hi, I'm Dr. Priyanka Wally.
And I'm Hari Kundabolu.
It's a new year, and on the podcast Health Stuff, we're resetting the way we talk about our health.
Which means being honest about what we know, what we don't know, and how messy it can all be. I like to sleep in late and sleep early. Is there a chronotype for that, or am I just depressed? Health stuff is about learning, laughing, and feeling a little less alone.

Chapter 2: What was the cut scene that caused stress for Kristin Davis?
This is Dr. Jesse Mills, host of the Mailroom Podcast. Each January, men promise to get stronger, work harder, and fix what's broken. But what if the real work isn't physical at all? I sat down with psychologist Dr. Steve Poulter to unpack shame, anxiety, and the emotional pain men were never taught how to name.
Part of the way through the valley of despair is realizing this has happened, and you have to make a choice whether you're going to stay in it or move forward.
Our two-part conversation is available now. Listen to The Mailroom on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your favorite shows.
A decade ago, I was on the trail of one of the country's most elusive serial killers. But it wasn't until 2023 when he was finally caught. The answers were there, hidden in plain sight.
Chapter 3: How did Mario Cantone's off-Broadway show impact his filming schedule?
So why did it take so long to catch him? I'm Josh Zeman, and this is Monster, hunting the Long Island serial killer. The investigation into the most notorious killer in New York since the son of Sam, available now. Listen for free on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Hi, I'm Kristen Davis, and I want to know, are you a Charlotte? We are back for the second time with Mario Cantone, which is so fantastic because this is your first episode on the air.
It is, it is. I always thought it was episode 12, but it's not. It's episode 11.
I know, and it's called Running With Scissors, but I think the reason you might have thought it was 12 was because we shot two at once, as we always did, right? Because in my mind, I remember the other Vera Wang episode where the girls are there. Like there's two Vera Wang visits, but we shot them in one day.

Chapter 4: What was the significance of the 'Running with Scissors' title?
Oh, that's right. And I remember I came in at three in the afternoon. Wow. And I was in an off-Broadway show at the time. Got it. Yeah, it was called The Crumple Zone. And it was Ran for like six months. It did really well. Got great reviews. And I remember that particular night was one of our tech nights.
Oh, no.
And they weren't going to let me out. And I was like, you can get someone else to stand here while you wait for an evening because I'm going.
Definitely. And I went. For sure. So wait, if you came in at three in the afternoon, maybe we did. We filmed till four at night. I do remember that it was stressful and long.
Chapter 5: How do the characters navigate their complicated relationships?
And I remember that our executive from HBO came and sat across from us and glared at us. I mean, not that it was our fault, but like, just let it be known that we were over budget. Uh-huh. Yeah, it was one of those days. There's only a few. Michael Hill. Michael Hill came. And I remember that because I was like, oh, he never comes. Oh, no. But I think it was expensive to shoot in Vera Wang.
Probably was. And it was so small. Remember how small it was?
Tiny. It was hard to film there.
yeah and also that evening was my husband's opening night of an off-broadway show he was in wow it's called bubbly black girl sheds her chameleon skin and i did i couldn't go yeah but i remember uh yeah we we you we talked about this last time and you didn't remember it i'm sure you remember it now because i told you last time but there was a second scene
Ooh, I still only have the vaguest memory.
What was it? It was us, you know, where we were sitting and looking at the dresses. There was a little room in the back of that with the door.

Chapter 6: What does Charlotte's reaction to Carrie’s affair reveal about her character?
Like a dressing room.
Yeah, and we were in that dressing room, and I was fitting you and trying to cut something with the scissors, and I ended up ripping the dress.
Which is really interesting because it's running with scissors is the title of this episode.
Yeah.
And you, we just glared, you glared at me and I was just like, Oh, and that was the end of that scene. And that was the end of that. Oh, wow. I don't know if that had stayed in, if we had, we would have come back and become friends.
I mean, I assume that they loved you so much that they didn't want there to be a negative thing, but I also feel this episode has so much plot in it for everyone else.
Like it's a lot. And the Aiden thing. And, Oh yeah. It's a lot.
It's so much that I feel, you know, there were times, I mean, this has always been true for us. We over overshoot, right? We always have too much and then we have to pick and choose.
Always. Don't get me started on just like that. There were two scenes of ours to this last season that were cut.

Chapter 7: How do the characters reflect on their past experiences in this episode?
No way. Oh yes. Remember that? Remember the one in the, um, in the, um, the bakery and it was after the puppet thing. And I said to you, I need to talk about the puppet more. And I was like, I was this old guy glaring at him and you were like, well, Oh, great scene. And it got cut. That's sad. Oh, and then there was a scene with the red rooster between me and you before I apologized to Carrie.
Oh, yeah. That was cut, which I was furious about because it was the bridge to me apologizing.
Right, right, right. I remember that. I remember that. But we always overfilm. We always overfilm. And one time I said to Michael Patrick, I said, couldn't we... cut from the read-through so that we don't, because we're always just really basically killing ourselves to get everything filmed.
Chapter 8: What themes emerge regarding friendship and loyalty in this episode?
And also we spend a lot of money getting everything filmed. And he said, no, because I don't know in the edit what's going to work.
He doesn't. Yeah, he doesn't.
But let me just say this about you when I watched this first episode, because obviously I hadn't watched this episode in, you know, 30 years or whatever it is, 25 years. You are just a breath of fresh air, like your energy. You're just like a blast of energy. It's so refreshing and exciting. Like you're a note that we didn't have in the ensemble.
Yeah.
Do you feel that when you watch it?
Yeah. When I watch it, I was like, wow, this, I mean, it was just, it's funny. It's good. I just, it works. And I don't know. I feel that I was I'm happy with it when I watch.
Definitely. Right. I mean, you're so young also. Like, it's so funny to look at you and me, obviously, too. But I mean, we're little children. I don't think I felt like a little child back then.
You didn't. Right. Neither did I. We felt like we were, you know, I mean, adult. We were. You know, but what I will. That was 2000. That was we filmed that 99.
No, I think we filmed it in 2000. Because it's it aired August 20. So we would have filmed it earlier in the summer.
