Sex and the City not only marked an entire generation of viewers but has also left an indelible mark on television. The seven-time Primetime Emmy Award-winning series has now found a new home on Netflix.

Created by Darren Star, the 94-episode, six-season series is based on the successful novel written by American columnist Candace Bushnell, which was originally published in 1996.
