For a show that ended nearly 15 years ago, Sex and the City has definitely stood the test of time. There also seems to be an entirely new generation of fans who have fallen in love with the lives of Carrie, Charlotte, Miranda, and Samantha, especially after the release of its revival sequel And Just Like That… Here we are going to look at the best ways to watch Sex and the City online via streaming TV

Carrie Bradshaw lives in Manhattan, New York and writes a popular weekly column called Sex and the City, where she offers advice about love life in the Big Apple. After a birthday party, along with her tight-knit group of friends – Samantha Jones, Charlotte York, and Miranda Hobbes – Carrie attempts and then becomes resolved to navigate the dating scene with a fresher, more daring perspective. 

Each episode shows their experiences exploring their sexuality in style; with men in all shapes, ages, and sizes. As their explorations become a tool for self-discovery, they take more risks and live as individuals who enjoy their freedom. And so Mr. Big and Carrie begin an affair, Samantha begins to date a younger guy, Miranda discovers the joy of being privy to a man’s sex secrets, and Charlotte decides she wants to get married. 

The series won multiple awards and even has two feature-length films that act as sequels to the TV series. Starring Sarah Jessica Parker (Divorce), Kim Cattrall (Tell Me A Story) Kristin Davis (Bad Teacher) and Cynthia Nixon (Ratched), every episode of Sex and the City series is now available on demand in Australia and using the information in this guide you can find exactly how and where to watch it.
