In the ninth episode of the series "Just Like That" one of the characters declares: "You know the Holocaust was a hoax, right?" • The insensitivity of the scene provoked enormous anger, especially in light of the broadcast date - International Holocaust Remembrance Day

Just Not Like This: The sequel to "Sex and the City" - "Just Like That" managed to provoke quite a few storms before it aired, but the record seems to have been broken yesterday with the rise of the ninth episode.

In one scene, Anthony's character arrives at the home of Charlotte and Harry (known as Jews, A.H.) with Justin's date. As the two stand in the doorway, Harry greets them and after Charlotte asks him to take the challah out of the oven, Justin is observed saying, "Is this a Jewish meal? You know the Holocaust was a hoax, right?" While Harry reacted in shock at the statement, Anthony shouted for his date to leave and the episode continued.

The insensitivity of the scene provoked a huge outrage, especially in light of the broadcast date - International Holocaust Remembrance Day. The network was filled with thousands of protest tweets and angry posts.

"The scene about the Holocaust? I was left speechless," a surfer tweeted. "No one thought it would be bad taste to include a joke about the Holocaust on the day that International Holocaust Remembrance Day is celebrated?", Raged another surfer.

"You would expect that after 23 years the screenwriters of the series knew what bad taste was. Shame," added another surfer.

Among the thousands of angry reactions were surfers who praised Anthony's response and wrote: "He saved the episode" and "I loved Anthony before and now I just adore them for how he responded".
