Get ready to feel nostalgic: The 20th anniversary of Sex and the City is next month. That’s right: On June 6, 1998, we were first introduced to Carrie Bradshaw, Samantha Jones, Charlotte York, Miranda Hobbes, and their mountain of champagne cosmopolitan problems.

For six years thereafter, we watched them navigate New York City’s glittery social scene with style, aplomb, and several bumps along the way (most of them having to do with Mr. Big). The show spawned two films—the first good, the second watchable after two glasses of wine. A third was supposed to happen, but if you paid any attention to pop-culture lately, then you know how that turned out. Regardless of its shortcomings, though, Sex and the City is socially significant for redefining the way our culture views women and sex. And for that, we’re eternally grateful.

So it’s no surprise E!’s celebrating Sex and the City‘s legacy with a giant marathon of the show. Starting on Friday, June 8, and continuing to Sunday, the network will air every single episode of Sex and the City in sequence and nonstop. So, in other words, cancel all your plans for that weekend and stock up on wine—especially if you’re going to break from the marathon to watch Sex and the City 2.

Check out E!’s promo teasing their marathon for yourself, below:

If you do have wine on call for this marathon, may I suggest a drinking game? Here are the rules:

• Drink every time Carrie brings the conversation back to herself.

• Drink whenever the women eat salad for breakfast.

• Drink any time Carrie says, “I couldn’t help but wonder.”

Get ready, my friends. This marathon’s about to be bigger than Big.
