When watching Netflix's Sex/Life did you recognize any landmarks in the steamy hit series?

The hit show with a shower scene everyone is talking about on TikTok and Twitter is set in bustling New York but was actually filmed around Toronto.

You can spot the majestic Fairmont Royal York in episode three when Brad hails a taxi for Billie.

Or eagle-eyed viewers might recognize the CC Lounge And Whiskey Bar on Front Street in episode four when Billie meets with her friends outside of Buttercream Bakery.

The corner of Temperance and Bay also doubled for Manhattan with the help of yellow taxis.

Similarly, the area around High Park was transformed into the suburbs of Connecticut with the help of a Greenwich police car.

While some of the indoor scenes were filmed at Mississauga's Dixie Studio, The Sun reports.

If you are eagerly waiting for details about season two, we have some other new shows on Netflix you are sure to enjoy.
