Trivia-Sex&City

The medicine cabinet in Carrie's apartment was first spied by Sarah Jessica Parker at a flea market shortly before filming began on the series. She and Matthew Broderick didn't buy it but reconsidered. When they went back, the cabinet was already sold to "some TV show". When she showed up for filming, the medicine cabinet was there.
The naturally blond Cynthia Nixon dyes her hair red to play Miranda on the show.
Carrie meets Mr. Big in the very first episode.
On the day she shot the scene where she goes to the Paris Cinema to see "Joy for Two" and it later rains very heavily, Sarah Jessica Parker wasn't feeling well, so she sent her assistant to fetch her a home pregnancy test. She learned she was in fact pregnant just before shooting the scene; scripted as a rather giddy, happy scene (it is in the episode, "Anchors Away!"), this obviously helps explains why she is extra-smiley.
Sarah Jessica Parker had a clause in her contract for this show stipulating that she will not do any full nudity. This is why the audience never sees Carrie in anything less than underwear whereas all the other main female characters have been filmed in much less.
Carrie's boyfriend Jack Berger (played by Ron Livingston) said "He's just not that into you" only twice in a 2003 episode. This line was ranked #13 in TV Guide's list of "TV's 20 Top Catchphrases" (21-27 August 2005 issue).
All of Season 1 was shot on 16mm film. It is the only one of the 6 seasons to be shot on this stock.
The final word spoken in the very last episode was "Fabulous".
The show became so popular that a tour was setup to view the New York City locations of the series by bus.
In the very beginning of the show the last thing "Mr. Big" says to Carrie is Abso-fuckin-lutely. And in the very last episode, he says that after he and Carrie return from Paris.
From the very first season up to the 12th episode of the 4th season, in the opening credits, Sarah Jessica Parker's name was shown with the World Trade Center towers behind her name. After the terrorist attacks on the USA of 11 September 2001 and the collapse of the towers, her name then appeared with the Empire State Building in the background. The same thing happened with the show's main title.
Kim Cattrall turned down the role of Samantha Jones twice before being convinced by Darren Star's boyfriend to give it a try and shoot the pilot episode.
In the episode where Carrie is invited to Mr Big and Natasha's engagement party, the props department decided to make up a first name for the character to appear on the invitation, knowing that it would never appear on screen. Sarah Jessica Parker opened the envelope to find she had been invited to the wedding of "Boris and Natasha" (named after the villains in "Rocky and His Friends" (1959)), she reportedly couldn't stop laughing for five minutes.
The early episodes of the show had characters looking directly at the camera lens and commenting on the events in the story. This element was dropped in later episodes.
Cynthia Nixon does not have pierced ears. All of her earrings on the show were clip-ons. Sometimes the costume designers would send away earrings they liked to a jeweler to make them clip-on earrings.
The girls' addresses are:
Carrie: 245 East 73rd St
Samantha: 300 Gansevoort Street

None of them actually exist
Charlotte's wedding dress (to Harry) is by Badgley Mischka.

The producers then contacted George Clooney who, although was interested in it, couldn't do it. The script was then sent to Warren Beatty who also declined.
Kristin Davis (Charlotte) revealed on "The View" (1997) on 26 October, 2005, that in the much talked about scrapped movie (planned after the series ended), Charlotte was supposed to fly to China to adopt a child and finds out she's in fact pregnant.
During the course of the show, all of the characters move into new apartments except for Carrie.
