SEX/LIFE
Inspired by the novel 44 Chapters About 4 Men by BB Easton, created by Stacy Rukeyser and Belle Nuru Dayne, “Sex/Life” is an American drama streaming television series starring Sarah Shahi, Mike Vogel, and Adam Demos that premiered on Friday, June 25, 2021, on Netflix.
A woman’s daring sexual past collides with her married-with-kids present when the bad-boy ex she can’t stop fantasizing about crashes back into her life.
Over the course of “Sex/Life,” Billie, a suburban wife, and mother of two who was a wild child in New York City before settling down with a wealthy, stable, slightly boring husband, thinks back on her younger years, on the formative relationships in her life, and on the most amazing sex she’s ever had.
Each episode comprises a menagerie of fantasy scenes, flashback sequences, and sexual daydreams and memories, and Shahi does a lot of breathy moaning, lip-biting, squirming, and orgasm mimicking.
“Sex/Life” focuses on Billie’s pleasure, confirms her consent, and doesn’t attempt to box sex into any one category. It can be a means of establishing intimacy, or it can be a casual physical exercise between individuals who get along but don’t want a relationship.
