The iconic series (which ran from 1998 to 2004) has been available to stream on Max since its launch. And, of course, prior to that, it also ran on syndication and was available on DVD.
However, for people who don't have Max, this marks the first time they can stream it on the world's biggest streaming service, Netflix. Needless to say, people on Twitter/X have a lot of mixed reactions to watching it.
Goes without saying that lots and lots of people were excited that to be able to watch one of their favorite TV shows all over again:

While others were rewatching and remembering things from the show that they hated:
I’m rewatching Sex and the City for the millionth time and somehow… Big is worse than I remember… a lot worse.

Sex in the City does get harder to rewatch as an adult bcuz Carrie was really unhinged behind big. I mean damn sis

Of course, for lots of people it was their first time watching it and they had lots thoughts on it as well:

So I started watching #SexAndTheCity and it was different than I expected. Messy and wild but I like it. Carrie is so charming.

how exciting that a young person gets to discover sex and the city for the first time. the glamorous journey they are about to embark on that many of us once took. and I mean look at me now (insane, completely out of touch, blinded by the idea of love, great coats)

However, for some people the discourse around the show has been a stark reminder to them that the show — particularly for Gen Z'ers — is a look back at an entirely different time period:
Just read that #SexAndTheCity is a quote-unquote “period piece” and now I wish to exit this world like Lexi Featherston: pic.twitter.com/YX4AosRAbM

We do not need big think pieces and extra discourse on Sex And The City. It was on air from 1998 to 2004. It was different times. We know that. Just watch it, enjoy some of the laughs and fashions. pic.twitter.com/vDZKTiocQw

And as the show gets discovered by a new generation on Netflix, I couldn't help but wonder: Are you guys going to give the show a rewatch on Netflix? Or is it too cringe now? Sound off in the comments below!!!
