1. When Carrie got splashed by a bus with her own face on it wearing a tutu (opening credits)
We knew we were going to experience something we've never seen before and be totally hooked. And, we couldn't help but wonder, 'Where can we buy a tutu?'
2. Carrie introduced us to the age of uninnocence (AKA Dating in NYC during the '90s) (3:15)

The start of Sex and the City's most famed love affair.
4. When we first met Miranda and she reminded us that we should never have to settle (5:41)
Preach, Miranda.
