The Connecticut-born author was speaking ahead of a UK tour next year of her show True Tales Of Sex, Success And Sex And The City, which sees Bushnell speak about the stories that inspired the series. She told PA: “It continues to resonate with younger audiences, and now it’s on Netflix, and I mean, honestly, I think it’s bigger than ever, because Netflix has such a huge reach.
“It’s global, it always was a global phenomenon, in the sense that when people watched it on the discs, people would come up to me from all over the world who were watching it. “Now it’s just much more accessible to watch on Netflix because, of course, Netflix is everywhere, and people still relate. “Young people still relate.
I have so many young people who come up to me and just say they love the show, and they’re in a lot of the same situations. “Of course, technology has changed dating, but there’s still the same struggles and disappointments, and the joys, frankly, but dating apps do seem to make things a little bit trickier.” The show’s main character Carrie Bradshaw (Sarah Jessica Parker) was inspired by Bushnell’s experiences as a journalist in New York City, but she said former Vogue and GQ publisher Ron Galotti – the real-life version of John James “Mr Big” Preston, Carrie’s.
