Brad ruins all who come after him for Billie, which is explained by way of a full frontal shot that is. Hi-de-ho, was life sparkling until Billie met Brad (Adam Demos), a heartbreaker with a reputation and the tortured soul that comes standard with his particular model of heterosexual man. In truth, Billie yearns for her old New York City life, when her boobs didn't leak and she and bosom buddy Sasha (Margaret Odette) were graduate students, thick as thieves and unapologetically hunting down the D. Everything about Billie's life looks faultless. Billie who is living a House Beautiful life in Connecticut funded by her investment executive husband Cooper (Mike Vogel), who only has eyes for her and looks like a Ken doll, only one that isn't smooth down there.īillie's children are sweet and loving, and the other moms at school are perky and welcoming. In fairness, that description shortchanges her character Billie Connelly, a transplanted Georgia girl who occasionally references the state as if it's a cultural wasteland.

That is, if some version of that notion had never inspired who knows how many horny housewife skin flicks, be they of the softcore variety or along the lines of "I can never un-see that please arrange for an exorcism after you call my therapist." That "Sex/Life" purports to examine a woman's desires and how those may conflict with her reality as a mother and caregiver could be thought of as revolutionary. So think of this as the service's invitation to enjoy eight not-too-explicit episodes featuring " The L Word" star Sarah Shahi getting railed by an Australian and a living mannequin.

Her take on a woman's erotic journey reminds us that not all womanly visions are delivered with 20/20 clarity. Purely in a mechanical sense it fits, in that it's a series created by a woman, Stacy Rukeyser, whose eyes presumably work. Here, the term in question is "female gaze." "Sex/Life" is proof that very zeitgeisty terms hit a point at which they lose their original meaning – or worse, are co-opted to promote projects that don't qualify.
