4 TV Shows That Are Just Basically Porn

There seems to be a reoccurring trend in most TV shows today: Turn your audience on as much as possible so they come back for more. Entertainment today is aimed directly at our naughty bits, and we wouldn’t have it another way.
However, there are some cases when you might watch a show just for the story, and then there’s a penis that seems to come out of nowhere.  Or everything is so suggestive that you feel like you should bathe in holy water just to feel semi clean again.
We’re going to look at the top offenders, starting with:

Girls

I remember coming across this on On Demand one day. Not one to miss a potential new favorite, I gave it a shot. All I remember is an opening credit, and the next thing I knew I saw a couple going at it like monkeys. I don’t care if a show has sex scenes. Hell, I’m married. Sex is nothing new to me. What I absolutely don’t like is when a show tries to beat into your brain that whatever given group of people are quite sexually active. What’s the point?
From what I can gather, it’s an excuse for creator/actress Lena Dunham to get naked. I’m all for empowering women, but even I have my limits. Every episode is the characters trying to navigate through being single, or something. Take away what little wit and actual funny moments that were in Sex and the City, and you have Girls.

Masters Of Sex

This one might be cheating, but hear me out. Masters of Sex is based on the work of Dr. William Masters and Virginia Johnson. Long story short, they’re the ones that discovered why we all like to screw and what gets our motors going. Given the subject matter, of course we’re going to see a butt or a set of boobs at some point. But considering how often it happens, it reminds me of late nights on Cinemax.
After watching the first episode, I figured critics were going to lay into it about just how sexual it is. Nope, they loved it and the show has been renewed for a second season. If you’re not convinced, just look at the poster. The E has been positioned to look like a woman’s crotch. I rest my case.

True Blood

I loved this show when it first came out. Yes, there was sex from the beginning, but it was actually kind of hot. You had vampires, different creatures, even the humans are pretty easy on the eyes. Then the third and fourth seasons came along, and I have no idea what happened. I’m guessing the writers just said screw it and decided sex makes up for lack of storyline.

As amazingly hot as some of the characters are, it falls flat and then the sex scenes are predictable and boring. We all know that boring, predictable sex is the beginning of the end. Are we really surprised it’s already on its last season?

Game Of Thrones

Incest, prostitutes, various boob shots, more than one sex scene. That’s all in the first episode. If you’ve read the books, you knew this wasn’t exactly PG-13. The rest of us, myself included, did not know that was going to be HBO’s first major venture into borderline hardcore porn.
Don’t get me wrong. This show is well written, the actors are outstanding, and I’m a huge fan. But I have seen so many naked people that I feel I should buy them dinner before I watch the next episode. That being said I will continue to be the horrible, perverted person that I am and I will still tune in every week. Don’t lie, you know you’re going to watch it too.
