Netflix’s Smuttiest Show Has Some Very Peculiar Ideas About the Male Anatomy
A detailed assessment of the many, many sex scenes in Sex/Life’s second season.
slate.com
Its first episode opened with an extremely memorable sequence: Billie, a Greenwich mom of a preschooler and a new baby, is recalling a sexual encounter with an old boyfriend in a club in New York City. “You’re killing me,” she tells the boyfriend, Brad, who grabs her nipple in his mouth. Smash cut: She’s actually in a very nice suburban bedroom, nursing her baby, who is pulling too hard on her nipple. “You’re killing me,” she says, taken back to the present. And the viewer goes: What?
my opinion:But as Billie (played by Sarah Shahi) broke up with her husband Cooper (Mike Vogel), over the course of a sexy-flashback-filled eight episodes, it felt like the show didn’t quite live up to that promise. Billie is just a weepy, beautiful thirtysomething, going through a divorce because she liked her handsome, rich record-exec ex-boyfriend (played by Adam Demos) better than her handsome, rich finance-bro husband.
