What's this about then? Forgive my ignorance but I'm not sure typing "masters of sex" into google is a terribly good idea :o

Oh, I have a very eclectic shite taste in tv. Thank god for sky plus. I'm watching In the Club, a The History of our Streets, Real Housewives, Ray Donovan and Masters of Sex!

It's a fictionalised dramatisation of the relationship between Masters and Johnson, who revolutionised sex research. As it is set in the changing times of fifties/sixties America, it covers a lot about society, the role of women, attitudes and clothes etc.

Great acting, laughter and pathos. Good drama, basically.

Been waiting eagerly for series2. Yay!

For those who like Ray Donovan, don't miss 'Banshee'. It's absolutely classy & hard hitting stuff.

Loved the first series. Really classy cast. Enjoyed the first episode of series two. Feel so sorry for the Beau Bridges and Alison Janney characters.

Just me? Have just caught up with Tuesday's episode. Libby correcting Pearl's pronunciation was buttock-clenchingly awful. Poor kid! I also love how Virginia looks out for Dr Depaul.

Good episode. Am very sad about that poor baby getting replumbed though.

The baby's father was eminently punchable. I admired Dr Masters' restraint.

Feels a bit like we are treading water at the moment. I hope the plot gets moving this week.

Does anyone else not see what is so shaggable about the doc? Confused Why is she so interested in him?

I thought the last episode was great - yes it was slow, but for me it really was all about understanding the characters as people, and exploring the dynamics between them, both sexually and otherwise. Gripping!

Tbh I found it too slow and also can't see what she sees in him. Why can't he be so hot in bed with his wife? He really annoys me.

Awful episode last week, felt like a bit of a filler one.

No I don't see what she sees in him either. He is not really attractive at all, is mostly mean to her, and fervently denies they are in any sort of relationship.

Why has his wife started bullying Coral (the maid)? She started off getting on really well with her. Poor girl - leave her alone!
