"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 drowns itself in the shallow end, so to speak, by failing to even generate much heat. There are plenty of R-rated scenes—so many, actually, that they get repetitive.
-
Thanks to the overwrought Harlequin Romance trappings, there’s a lot more guilt here than pleasure.
