About
As of 2026, it's 28 years old.
Sex and the City followed four New York women, their dating disasters, and an apartment-and-shoe budget that would require the salary of a small hedge fund rather than a newspaper columnist. It made frank conversations about relationships, sex, and friendship into appointment television and turned Manhattan itself into a fifth character.
Carrie's narration, the brunches, and the eternal Aidan-vs-Big debate became cultural touchstones, for better and occasionally for worse.
Glamorous, frank, and hugely influential, Sex and the City is the show that made cosmopolitans, designer shoes, and oversharing brunch the defining aesthetic of an era.
