Sex Life Season 2 stars Sarah Shahi as Billie, Mike Vogel as Cooper, Adam Demos as Brad, Margaret Odette as Sasha, Li Jun Li as Francesca, Cleo Anthony as Sam and Darius Homayoun. It was created by Stacy Rukeyser and inspired by BB Easton’s novel 44 Chapters About 4 Men. The new season has 6 episodes of 45-50 minutes each.
The synopsis for Sex/Life Season 2 – After the divorce with Cooper, Billie is now alone. She can fulfil her desires and lust, but her past with Brad keeps bothering her. What will she do? We find out everything in the end.
Sex/Life Season 2 Review Contains Mild Spoilers
After 2 years, Netflix is back with its popular erotic series, Sex Life. The first season caught much attention for many nude and sexually explicit scenes. Billie was married to Cooper for many years and was unhappy because the sex wasn’t exciting enough. She couldn’t stop thinking of her past lover Brad with whom she fulfilled many wild sexual fantasies.
In the new season, Billie has all the freedom to go to Brad and fool around, as she always wanted. However, Brad is now with someone else. She has no choice but to seek love, I mean, lust from someone else. She meets Majid, who gives her the physical pleasures she always wanted. But is that enough? Well, not for Billie.
How does one review a series where a person’s biggest problem in life is that they don’t get enough sex? The characters don’t worry about inflation, their jobs, or whether food will be on their table at night. In this case, the duo didn’t care about their little kids. One of them even had to see their parent doing someone. Their concerns are whether they will have someone to f*ck in the bed. Sadly, Netflix has budgeted for show ridiculous shows, whereas the good ones get cancelled.
In Sex Life Season 2, I realised how perfect Billie and Cooper were for each other. The former husband and wife have two kids but their priority is to get some action. They’ll be sleeping with someone but thinking about someone else. Why would they separate? A perfect plot would have been the two being in an open marriage and doing whatever they what with whoever they want. At least, the series would have made sense.

Along with Billie and Cooper’s unsatisfied sexual desires, the new season also focuses on Sasha. A past lover named Kam returns to her life. Sadly, Sasha and Kam’s story has nothing enjoyable to offer. She has new career dreams but is reduced to sex scenes later. The two had zero chemistry, just like Billie and all the men she had slept with in the two seasons.
Just like season 1, the new season is high on nude and sex scenes, majorly of women. In one of the episodes, Billie’s mother tells her daughter that she has always been out of control regarding sex and men. Billie gets emotional and tells her mom about how she also has desires. The scene is intended to be emotional. But I couldn’t help but laugh all the time. Why is the character who has been sleeping with men in every episode complaining about not having her fantasies fulfilled?
Sex Life Season 2 Review: Final Thoughts
Overall, the new season of Sex Life has nothing good to offer. I know the series’ theme is sex, but where’s the story? Make the problems of the characters believable. The only good quality they all have is they’re insanely good-looking. But that’s not enough.
The new season is just more mess of the lives of sex addict grown-ups whose biggest worries are whether they will have someone to go to bed with, at night!
The series is now streaming on Netflix.

I checked your website, I liked your website very much. And your content is very unique and good. Your theme and the color and design of your website are very cute. I hope you keep giving us more valuable content like this in future.
Oh, I could not agree more to your review. It all just seemed so implausible, incoherent and immature, as if someone just thought of different sex scenes and tried to put some story behind therm, to make sense. What I could not get over, is how Billie was a mother of an actual infant of only four/five months, when she started to meet up with Brad in season 2. She clearly had post-partum depression or smth in those lines and noone batted an eye, not her husband, not her psychologist best friend, jeeez not even herself. Honestly her infant was a mere accesory in both seasons, the eldest atleast got some story (which was sooo badly written)
Shitty season, selfish adults…make the kids look abandoned. I understand it’s a sex life show but damn. My favorite at this point is Olga and Kam.
Season 2 is such a disappointment.
Wow…I thought this series was great. True to life too. As a psychotherapist there was nothing that surprised me in this show. Are people unaware that in our country that the divorce rate is near 60%? Does that not include a lot of problematic issues? But we aren’t suppose to have a show about it? All shows should have no one getting divorced? No dissatisfaction? No children caught in the middle? No remarriage? No people living together? Should we have shows about the first person you have sex with (or maybe kiss and fall for) us it forever?
My gosh, how many movies have we seen over the decades where men are having affairs galore and the “little wife” is good girl and tolerates that in unhappiness? Enough of that!
I do agree that couples can come up with other arrangements other than divorce but if you want to see a lot of people freaking out even more, than do that!
I don’t think Cooper and Billie were good match. If my husband and I were having sex and he loses his erection because of looking AROUND my body…then for me…that’s a probably. Maybe for a lot of women it’s not.
I also wouldn’t want my husband reading my diary (nor would he) and Cooper masturbating to Billie’s journal showed from the get go, he had major problems.
The series was from a woman’s point of view FOR ADULTS, and I thought it was great. Didn’t care for all the weddings at end and I think that was done to appease people who are into traditional moralistic viewpoints
