Season 1 Review:
At its core, “Sex/Life” is a good-looking soap opera about good-looking people who have fantastic lives but seem hell-bent on screwing things up in the name of personal gratification. ... Even as I was rolling my eyes at some of the insanely stupid actions of the lead characters and chuckling at the at-times overwrought score, I can’t deny “Sex/Life” had a certain binge-worthy quality. It’s a soft-core guilty pleasure of a series.

Season 1 Review:
Shahi’s performance is one of the few things to recommend the show. As the scripts send Billie through an emotional maelstrom, she radiates lust, confusion, motherly affection, and determination. She’s game and vulnerable, even as the show’s repetitiveness strains patience. But Sex/Life isn’t all that invested in her character, either.

Season 1 Review:
The primary failing of “Sex/Life” is its inability to balance the acrobatic-romp and woman-finding-herself elements of this concept; there's so much of the former, and not enough of the latter. ... The pacing of the show is interrupted by that constantly zigging-and-zagging timeline and by its elongation of certain plotlines that would benefit from more precise writing and character development.

Season 1 Review:
"Sex/Life" is testing our tolerance to quite a degree with eight hour-long episodes centered on the tried-and-true "bored suburban housewife embarks on a sexual journey" yarn. ... Women deserve better – and Netflix has better in its library, frankly – but it'll do in a pinch.

Don't know why everyone is screaming that the show is disgusting. Yes, sometimes it's super inappropriate, but cmon, that is the show about desire and love. You don't need to write down that Billie is stupid, everyone makes what they want. If you hate it, why you watched entire season?

O show trata muito bem o que deseja inserir aos telespectadores. Algumas contradições, mas nada que faça se tornar ruim.
