The American drama created by Stacey Rukeyser was inspired by BB Eastons 2016 memoir, 44 Chapters About 4 Men and the first series came out on 25 June 2021. Sex/Life follows the life of a stay-at-home wife and mum called Billie, who is played by actress Sarah Shahi. In the series, Billie reunites with an ex-boyfriend from her youth and is taken back to the excitement of her younger days.

Consequently, Billie starts writing about her experiences on her laptop. Her current relationship with husband Cooper, played by Mike Vogel, takes an interesting turn when he discovers her writing. Cooper goes on to use the intimate texts as an instruction manual to spice up his and Billie's sex life. Ratings prove that the R-rated shows first season has already caught the attention of viewers and many have been left wondering if and when the drama will return for a second series. Netflix is yet to announce series two - despite plenty of positive reviews on social media  One Twitter user wrote: 'Just binged all of #SexLife on Netflix in one sitting. Beyond phenomenal and relevant on SO MANY levels my God.' Another tweeted: '#Sexlife was the best tv show I've watched this year, I need season 2 like NOW.' A verdict will likely be made after more impressions have been gathered from the first series. Fans might have to wait until mid-to-late 2022 for a second series. As far as Sex/Lifes public reception, the show received a 44% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Nevertheless, people on social media voiced their positive feedback, defying the mixed criticism on other official review platforms. Sex/Lifes first series began filming in March 2020, however, the shows production reached a standstill as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic, so things have been slow for the show. The drama picked up production in summer 2020 and filming started again in August. Filming for Sex/Lifes first season finished around December before hitting Netflix in June 2021.
