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.
It fulfills its duties as a bodice-ripper of show, pedalling lifestyle porn that still fails to satisfy Billie, but hopes to arouse its viewers with jealousy. ... Still, Sex/Life chases cheap thrills over truly sexy depictions of sexuality.

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.

This is another show that confirms the “sex sells” adage. I only wish the story had the chutzpah to do something different with it.
Shahi is far better than the material she has been given, though the rest of the cast seem to have accepted their cardboard-cutout fate, and I suspect it isn’t meant to be half as funny as it often is.
"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.
Sex/Life is a show that has no idea what kind of message it wants to send, besides maybe the fact that it would be awfully nice if people could boink like rabbits while having a busy family life.
Sex/Life Season 2 is an atrocious excuse for art, but it does display creativity where it counts: in the sex scenes. ... Skip it and just go to PornHub.

This review will not be based on the first season, as my memory of it isn't sharp enough for me to voice my opinion on it.
The second season starts right where the previous one ended, and Billie has ran back to Brad with one request, **** me", and to our surprise Brad rejects Billie because he's already expecting a child with a model, Gigi. Billie returns home, and Cooper having placed a tracker on Billie already knows where Billie went, and from that moment their marriage becomes unsalvageable. The series then takes a time jump and shows how Billie and Cooper are co-parenting their children with each parent having a specified number of days with the kids without the presence of the other parent.
The second season of Sex Life is heavily nuanced and doesn't move in a straight line. It bends and weaves through different hurdles. But, even with the meandering nature of the second season's plot, it's better and tighter than the first. There's more emotion, there are more hard decisions. Watching how Cooper disintegrates and becomes a shadow of his former self was beautiful and is very true to how divorce can affect someone. Sasha, Kam and the other supporting characters also help move the story forward, and their characters are fleshed out well. I wish Billie ended up with Majid, but I guess they weren't on the same page, but he was pivotal in helping transit Billie away from her divorce. Ultimately, Billie ends up with Brad (the writers wanted their love to win) and Cooper was able to heal and move on too.
In all, the second season of Sex Life was a beautiful way to end the series, and I'm glad it ended when it did. It was complete.
