So I’ve powered through the first four episodes. I don’t want to spoil it for anyone who hasn’t seen it yet, but I’ve just finished episode 4 and need to rant about someone!! So annoying lol.

You’re not blonde!!!

Just come up to bed late too after watching the first 4. Didn't want to but was compelled to see what happened! It does seem a bit scripted though at times. What a strange and vacuous bunch they are!

Having said that...

So far, my favourite boys are Marvin and Chase. Can't believe Cam is 24, he acts like a 17 year old. Out of the girls, I like Carly (except for her kiss with Peter) and Kayla.

Love island starts tomorrow, hope I don't get my contestant mixed up!

I’ve blasted through the first five episodes as well, didn’t realise they’d split the series up and I was gutted at having to wait!

Cam is really awful. I don’t like any of the boys, the most tolerable one seems to be the bland blonde stripper

I've watched the first 4 episodes too. It's just terrible TV, but I'm so addicted to it. Blush

Who do you want to rant about? Ask MN to put a spoiler warning in the title and let rip!

I reckon Kayla will get kicked out soon.

Larissa really needs to cut down on the lip fillers.

riotlady · 30/06/2021 16:18

Spoiler for episode 5-

Fuming that Kayla and Peter have been kicked out over Cam, who has broken the most rules by MILES and tried to double time Emily!

CrazyCatsAndKittens · 30/06/2021 16:25

They always kick out the boring ones. I noticed the ones left were pretty quick to couple up.

I'm on episode 7. They have brought in 3 more people.

I just wonder if there will be any money left by the end!

Hello! Sorry, my little boy has developed croup so my week so far has been crap!!

Just watching episode 5, whilst I should be getting ready to start work!

My rant was about Robert. He isn’t blonde, is he? He is ginger! They keep referring to him as the blonde haired, blue eyed boy. It’s annoying me!! I didn’t want to say anything about him before in case anyone hadn’t seen them enter.

@CrazyCatsAndKittens great idea - I’ll do that!

I hope your son is ok x

I'm not sure about Robert, but Cam gets worse...

Anuthanamechange · 01/07/2021 15:35

Thanks. He is okay, off nursery today which is a challenge!

I quite like Nathan, he seemed really lovely. However, they’re all fickle, especially when you see the next load of attractive people arrive.

Chase is a dick.

Wish they would do some emotional workshops for the men.

Yes, I agree!

I finished watching it, but actually i just fast forwarded most of the last episode to reveal the winner(s). The last episode was kind of boring and a lot of waffle about personal growth, which I didn't really believe any of them had actually achieved. It was an alright watch I wonder if we will hear about any of them again.

PennyRoyal · 03/07/2021 20:37

Finished it this afternoon.
I won't spoil it by saying who won but I agreed with the verdict!
Cam & Emily and Melvyn & Melissa are still together 💖
Not sure if the Brits showed us off that well as a group of young people. I liked Em but couldn't stand Cam or Tabitha nor had much time for Nathan or Robert.
I enjoyed it, more than I'm enjoying Love island at the moment. But I too fast forwarded most of the last episode.

Can you get Sex/Life on Netflix in the U.K.?
Makes 365 look a bit vanilla …

PennyRoyal · 03/07/2021 22:18

Just had a look. Yes, it's on there - would you recommend?? Review from The Guardian says:
"This hot and heavy shagathon has raced to the top of Netflix charts, despite its plot being sparse and almost criminally silly"

MooseBeTimeForSummer · 04/07/2021 22:26

I thought the plot was ok until the last 10 minutes of the final episode.

CrazyCatsAndKittens · 05/07/2021 05:29

I enjoyed Sex/Life. I think like with a lot of Netflix series they like to leave the ending open in case of a series 2, which is always annoying when Netflix decides to cancel. I don't think they've announced whether there will be a series 2 or not. I think it would have worked better as a 1 season only with everything wrapped up at the end.

I was surprised that Emily and Cam and especially Mellisa and Melvyn are still together. I saw there is a Too Hot to Handle Brazil and Latino version, but I think I will pass.

Anuthanamechange · 05/07/2021 07:11

I agree with who won. I quite liked them in the end.

Yes, I saw those were still together.

I was speaking to a friend the other day and we both agreed that love is blind has been the best thing. Obviously too hot to handle has it’s place.

Not attempted love island this year. Just not floating my boat!

I'm on episode 3 and it's cracking me up. Cam just makes me laugh so much, he's shameless.

Marvin and the other one who are so annoyed with Peter also make me laugh. They big themselves up as game players and they are sulking at this stage.
