Season 1 Reviews
BuzzFeed News
Scaachi Koul
The eight-episode season easily could've been boiled down into two TikToks...
CNN.com
Brian Lowry
Whatever inherent truths the show explores -- marriage is hard, the magic/romance fades, etc. -- get overshadowed by the wanton silliness.
Common Sense Media
Angelica Guarino
This epitomizes trash TV; it's a soapy melodrama that could be interpreted either as emotional or hilarious depending on the viewer's interpretation.
NBC News THINK
Jenni Miller
While not everyone will relate to the particulars of our heroine's conundrum, lots of us do have a toxic-but-hot ex who had an inexplicable hold on us, and we question whether or not we can be satisfied with someone who feels safe.
Chicago Sun-Times
Richard Roeper
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.
Tell-Tale TV
Allison Nichols
It's refreshing to watch a show where the female gaze is prioritized, and there's not a stigma around a woman craving sex and sexual attention from her partner.
Slate
Karen Han
Having watched all eight episodes of the show, what I remember from it isn't how steamy the sex scenes are (not least because they aren't), but how frustrating I found Billie and all of the people around her.
TIME Magazine
Judy Berman
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.
Variety
Daniel D'Addario
For a show about the basic instincts, it's unusually removed from anything recognizably human; for a look at what it means to heedlessly seek fulfillment, it's surprisingly sour and mean.
Paste Magazine
Katherine Smith
Explicitness abounds. However, the friction that Sex/Life chases more often turns into a rub. As it turns out, both good sex and a good life can bloom when fed full-throated fantasy. But for Sex/Life, its soapy sexuality washes away its potential potency.
Women's Voices for Change
Alexandra MacAaron
The odd thing is this. For a show that is so much about sex that it's literally the first word in its title, Sex/Life is surprisingly unsexy. The sex scenes (and, truly, I lost count early on) are pretty much all the same.
Decider
Joel Keller
A show that has no idea what kind of message it wants to send.
Salon.com
Melanie McFarland
All of this would be laudable if the writing weren't hilariously atrocious. At least it's adhering to form, which means you can fast forward through most of it.
RogerEbert.com
Roxana Hadadi
The primary failing of Sex/Life is its inability to balance the acrobatic-romp and woman-finding-herself elements of its concept; there's so much of the former, and not enough of the latter.
AV Club
Danette Chavez
Rather than interrogate why Billie's sublimated her needs for the sake of a relationship, the series seems concerned only with titillating viewers -- and, despite Shahi and Demos' athleticism and enthusiasm, even that gets old.
Pajiba
Dustin Rowles
There is a lot of sex and a lot of nudity in Sex/Life and while Netflix probably had hoped that Sarah Shahi's presence would elevate the series, the shoddy directing and the bad writing from Stacy Rukeyser mostly drags Shahi down with it.
