Starring Sarah Jessica Parker (as Carrie Bradshaw) and co-starring Kim Cattrall (as Samantha Jones), Kristin Davis (as Charlotte York), and Cynthia Nixon (as Miranda Hobbes), the series had multiple continuing storylines that tackled relevant and modern social issues such as sexuality, safe sex, promiscuity, and femininity, while exploring the difference between friendships and romantic relationships. Set and filmed in New York City, the show follows the lives of a group of four women-three in their mid-thirties and one in her forties-who, despite their different natures and ever-changing sex lives, remain inseparable and confide in each other. Throughout its development, the series received contributions from various producers, screenwriters, and directors, principally Michael Patrick King. The series premiered in the United States on June 6, 1998, and concluded on February 22, 2004, with 94 episodes broadcast over six seasons.
It is an adaptation of Candace Bushnell's newspaper column and 1996 book anthology of the same name.
