Before Carrie narrated the show, she spoke directly to the camera.

The Big Picture Since Sex and the City premiered in the late '90s, it can be jarring to rewatch it now for many a reason. From out-of-date storylines to the cheeky fashion , another glaring difference is the fact that Season 1 looks completely different from the rest of the seasons. It’s a completely different format, with each episode incorporating Carrie interviewing random passersby on the street.

It All Goes Back to The Source Material The most obvious reason for the addition of the interviews goes back to the woman who started it all, Candace Bushnell. Bushnell is quite literally Carrie Bradshaw, the character is based on her and her experiences. From 1994 to 1996, Candace had a column in the New York Observer, titled, you guessed it, Sex and the City. It proved so popular that the pieces were later compiled into a book of essays, the basis of which the show was derived from.

The addition of these aspects is show-creator Darren Star’s attempt to embody the feel of Bushnell’s original column — and it works. It may feel a little disjointed to watch back now, given that the show dropped it just as quickly as it started, but it perfectly set the tone for the show when it was just finding its footing.
