Sex/Life is an eight episode series that will be released on Netflix, June 25th. 

Sex/Life is inspired by the book 44 Chapters About 4 Men by BB Easton.

Sex/Life is the story of a love triangle between a woman, her husband, and her past that takes a provocative new look at female identity and desire. Billie Connelly (Sarah Shahi) wasn’t always a stay-at-home wife and mother living in the suburbs. Before she married loving and reliable Cooper (Mike Vogel) and moved to Connecticut, Billie was a free-spirited wild child living in New York City with her best friend Sasha (Margaret Odette), working hard and playing even harder. Exhausted from taking care of her two young kids and feeling nostalgic for her past, Billie starts journaling and fantasizing about her passionate exploits with sexy ex-boyfriend Brad (Adam Demos), the big heartbreak she never got over. But the more Billie remembers, the more she wonders how she got here — and then her husband finds her journal. Will the truth about Billie’s past start a sexual revolution in her marriage, or lead her down a path back to the life she thought she left behind with the man who broke her heart?

Ugh. Sarah and Adam are way too publicly schmoopy. That doesn’t usually bode well for relationship longevity in the Hollywood world. I’m guessing they are in the long line of actors who bought into the intimacy bubble created by doing sex scenes together (especially given the sheer number of them in this show). 9 times out 10 these relationships fizzle once the actors move onto other projects. May the odds be in their favor that they can go the distance.

Yeah, 67 million may have watched it but based on the postings here 25 million hated it and 35 million just didn’t care enough even to post. The other 7 million might have liked the pretty, but I predict that Season 2 is going to flop like a Broadway musical based on the Rwandan genocide.

This show isn't nearly as edgy as it thinks it is.

I can't say I'm surprised—or disappointed.
