For a good number of writers in Hollywood, this WGA strike is not their first one. TheWrap spoke with four writer-producers who marched on the picket lines back in 2007 and who have created and written for some of the most popular shows of the past quarter-century, and they say that they’re more concerned for future writers than themselves.

“I was also involved in the 1988 strike, and my biggest memory from that was a rally in Century City, and there was an elderly man in a wheelchair who was a writer on ‘The Lucy Show,'” said Marta Kauffman, co-creator of “Friends” and “Grace and Frankie.”

“Someone said to him, ‘Curious why you’re here. You’re not writing, you’re retired. Why are you here?’ He said, ‘I’m here for the younger writers,...

For two seasons now, housewife Billie (Sarah Shahi) has been slowly losing the life she once knew in favor of chasing the high of her sexually adventurous youth. In Netflix's "Sex/Life," Billie finds herself torn between her reliable husband Cooper (Mike Vogel), and Brad (Adam Demos), the hunky Australian ex who wanders back into her life. Later, when the romantic house of cards she's built tumbles down completely, she ends up hooked on a new man, restaurant owner Majid (Darius Homayoun). "Sex/Life" definitely isn't Netflix's best show, but plenty of fans still like the "Sex and The City"-style series because it's a reliably steamy adult-oriented romance.

Apparently, though, Billie's wild ride has come to an end. Variety is reporting that the Stacy Rukeyser-created show "Sex/Life" has been canceled after just two seasons. Luckily, though, the show actually wrapped up most of its major plotlines in its latest season finale.

Netflix is giving “Sex/Life” the boot.

Deadline confirms that the streaming platform is shelving the dramedy series after just two seasons.

A Netflix spokesperson has said they are proud of the show, which stars Sarah Shahi, Margaret Odette, Mike Vogel and Adam Demos, and that the second season wrapped up the series in a happy and natural conclusion.

The series, created by Stacy Rukeyser, depicts the story of a tangled love triangle between a woman, her husband, and her past. The show was inspired by the book 44 Chapters About 4 Men by Bb Easto and sought to take a compelling look at female desires.

Netflix has canceled Sex/Life after two seasons. The news isn’t all that surprising as series star Sarah Shahi recently signed on to star in ABC’s legal drama Judgement.

Inspired by B.B. Easton’s 44 Chapters About 4 Men, Sex/Life starred Sarah Shahi as Billie Connelly who, “exhausted from taking care of her two kids and feeling nostalgic for the free-spirited life she lived in New York with her best friend Sasha (Margaret Odette) before marrying loving and reliable Cooper (Mike Vogel), starts journaling and fantasizing about her exploits with an ex (Adam Demos).” While the first season of Sex/Life had 232.70 million hours of viewing time over a nearly four-week period, the second season only had 126.8 million hours in a similar time frame. That’s a drop of about 45%, so you can understand why Netflix canceled Sex/Life.

It's time to say goodbye to Netflix's "Sex/Life," because the show is officially ending after two seasons. A Netflix spokesperson confirmed the news to Popsugar on April 7, though no further details about the show's cancellation have emerged.

The news comes shortly after the show's star, Sarah Shahi, got candid about her feelings about "Sex/Life" season two, revealing she was bothered by some changes made after the first installment. "I definitely did not have the support that I did in the first season from the people involved in the show," she shared in an April 4 episode of the "Not Skinny but Not Fat" podcast, saying the shift was rooted in the creators and the script.

Netflix’s “Sex/Life” has been taken off life support. The erotic drama series will not return for a third season at the streamer, a Netflix spokesperson confirmed to IndieWire.

The news comes just over a month after the second season of the show debuted on March 2. The show, created by Stacy Rukeyser, premiered its first season in June 2021. A spokesperson for Netflix told IndieWire that the service is proud of the cast and crew’s work on the show, and that the second and now final season brought the show’s storyline to a natural ending.

Loosely inspired by the novel “44 Chapters About 4 Men” by Bb Easton, “Sex/Life” starred Sarah Shahi as Billie Connelly, a housewife and mother of two in the suburbs of Connecticut.

Netflix has canceled its drama series Sex/Life after two seasons.

The decision comes five weeks after the show’s second season (consisting of six episodes, down from eight in season one) debuted — and three weeks after star Sarah Shahi signed on to star in Judgement, a legal drama in contention for next season at ABC.

Season two brought an ending of sorts to the story as Shahi’s Billie reunited with her ex, Brad (Adam Demos), and got married on a beach. Showrunner Stacy Rukeyser, however, told The Hollywood Reporter that she didn’t view the last episode as the end of the series.

“The episode was never intended to be a series finale, that’s for sure,” Rukeyser told THR a week after season two premiered. “I know there are always more stories to tell with these characters in the Sex/Life universe, and I hope we get the chance to tell those stories.

“Sex/Life” has been canceled at Netflix after two seasons, Variety has learned.

The second season of the drama series debuted on the streamer on March 2, while Season 1 debuted in June 2021.

The series was inspired by the book “44 Chapters About 4 Men” by B.B. Easton and hailed from creator Stacy Rukeyser. Sarah Shahi starred as Billie Connelly who, exhausted from taking care of her two kids and feeling nostalgic for the free-spirited life she lived in New York with her best friend Sasha (Margaret Odette) before marrying loving and reliable Cooper (Mike Vogel), starts journaling and fantasizing about her exploits with an ex (Adam Demos).

The cast for the series also included Cleo Anthony, Darius Homayoun, Craig Bierko, Wallis Day, Jonathan Sadowski, Joyce Rivera, and Li Jun Li.

The series was executive produced by Jordan Hawley and Academy Award-winning producer J. Miles Dale, along with Rukeyser. Rukeyser also served as showrunner.

In a recent podcast interview,...

The end has come for Netflix’s Sex/Life. The streamer is not moving forward with a third season of the dramedy series starring Sarah Shahi, Margaret Odette, Mike Vogel and Adam Demos, Deadline has confirmed.

According to a Netflix spokesperson, the second season brought the series to a natural close, wrapping up the storylines for key characters whose relationships come to a happy conclusion, adding the streamer is proud of the show and the work put in to it by producers, cast and crew.

Created by Stacy Rukeyser, Sex/Life — inspired by the book 44 Chapters About 4 Men by Bb Easto — tells the story of a love triangle between a woman, her husband, and her past that takes a provocative new look at female identity and desire.

Rukeyser served as showrunner, creator, executive producer and writer. Oscar-winning producer J. Miles Dale and Jordan Hawley also executive produce.

Sarah Shahi got candid about Sex/Life’s second season on Netflix and how it was more challenging for her than the first one was.

In an appearance on the Not Skinny but Not Fat podcast, the Black Adam star said she didn’t want to put the show down but that she struggled with the material and the people involved in the show.

“I definitely did not have the support that I did the first season,” Shahi said. “It became a much different thing for me, and I’m not afraid to say that. I struggled with the material.… I mean, I’m never going to work for Netflix again now after saying all this. I just can’t lie.”

Despite her struggles on the show’s sophomore run that debuted last month, the actress explained that a lot of the show’s themes — second chances, romance, divorce, co-parenting — still really resonated with her.

Sex/Life star Sarah Shahi is set as the lead and also will produce Judgement, ABC’s drama pilot from former Charmed showrunner Joey Falco and 20th Television.

Shahi had been in talks for the project for weeks as ABC and the producers had to work through her commitment to Sex/Life. Netflix just released the second season of the drama, inspired by Bb Easto’s book 44 Chapters About 4 Men, which is headlined by Shahi. White there has been chatter for awhile that this may be Sex/Life‘s final chapter, creator Stacy Rukeyser has shared hopes for a third season. If the show is renewed, Shahi will be able to reprise her role, subject to availability as Judgement now has her in first position, I hear.

Written and executive produced by Falco, Judgement is a high-stakes legal soap that redefines the genre by playing out over two timelines. Fifteen years from now,...

[This story contains spoilers to the season two finale of Netflix’s Sex/Life.]

The second season of Sex/Life may have ended with happily ever after, but creator and showrunner Stacy Rukeyser says there is still much more story to tell.

The steamy Netflix drama starring Sarah Shahi ended its six-episode sophomore season by reuniting Billie Connelly (Shahi), now a divorced mother of two, with her ex Brad (Adam Demos) after setting them on separate paths for most of the season. The finale saw the pair more connected than ever as they get married on the beach and react to Billie’s news that she is pregnant.

While Rukeyser awaits news about a potential third season — “Netflix has two calls. One is after 10 days and one is after 28 days. And that’s when your fate is decided,” she says — she shares below with The Hollywood Reporter her plans to continue telling this bingeable story about female sexuality and identity, spills secrets...

[Warning: The following contains Major spoilers for Sex/Life Season 2.] The Sex/Life Season 2 finale tied all of the plots together in a shiny bow. All of the main characters end coupled up, each with the “fairy tale” ending creator and executive producer Stacy Rukeyser promised. “This season is, ultimately, a fairy tale — a sparkly fun, deliciously sexy one,” Rukeyser said in a statement ahead of the March 2 premiere on Netflix. “So those looking for more daring, empowered, female-gaze sexuality and TikTok-worthy watercooler moments will not be disappointed! There are stunning surprises for both Team Cooper and Team Brad, while Sarah Shahi continues to shine as Billie, and act as a surrogate for women (and men) everywhere who have ever wondered, ‘What if?’” Sabrina Lantos/Netflix Those stunning surprises were aplenty. Cooper’s (Mike Vogel) surprises came in the form of his own reckless behavior as he downward spiraled from his and Billie’s (Sarah Shahi) divorce. Brad (Adam Demos...

Warning: This story contains spoilers from Season 2 of “Sex/Life,” now streaming on Netflix.

Picking up right where Season 1 left off, the second season of “Sex/Life” follows Sarah Shahi’s Billie as she asks herself a big question: Can I have it all? She’s torn between wanting both the sexual relationship she once had with now ex-boyfriend Brad (Adam Demos) and the current life she has with her husband, Cooper (Mike Vogel), and their children.

Throughout the second season, as she and Cooper ultimately decide to separate, she dips her toe into new a relationship — but then realizes she’s not only still physically attracted to Brad, but is in love with him. Although he’s having a baby with his new wife, Brad eventually realizes he feels the same way about Billie. After six drama-filled episodes, the finale sees the pair back together — with Billie revealing she’s pregnant.

As the first season of Netflix’s Sex/Life wrapped up, our heroine Billie (Sarah Shahi) found herself in a bit of a pickle. On the one hand, she had Cooper (Mike Vogel), her drop-dead gorgeous, chiseled husband, a great father to her two small children with a lucrative job that was helping save the world. But the sex? Meh. On the other hand, she had Brad (Adam Demos), her drop-dead gorgeous, chiseled past love, a mega-rich music producer unfortunately burdened with abandonment issues that made him a bit of a douchebag.

Sex/Life Season 1 was a tantalizing journey centered on bored housewife Billie Connelly (played by Sarah Shahi), who began journaling and then fantasizing about her hunky ex. In Season 2, which premieres Thursday, the Netflix drama goes just a little deeper.

“Season 1 was something else, and Season 2 amplifies and deepens that experience for all of the characters,” Margaret Odette, who plays Billie’s best friend Sasha, tells TVLine. “You’re going to see a lot more of Sasha’s life in this season, both her past and how she’s become this independent woman that we recognize her as today.

Netflix has released the first look photos and an official trailer for Season 2 of “Sex/Life.”

“Sex/Life” will premiere on Netflix on March 2. The second season follows the 2021 premiere with an eight-episode season.

Based on the book, “44 Chapters About 4 Men” by Bb Easton, “Sex/Life” was created by Stacy Rukeyser. The series follows as one woman, Billie Connelly (Sarah Shahi), examines her identity, unveils her desires, and navigates a love triangle between her husband Cooper Connelly (Mike Vogel) and her former flame, Brad Simon (Adam Demos). The provocative first season of “Sex/Life” reached 67 million viewers within its first four weeks on Netflix.

Alongside the leading love triangle, the series also stars Margaret Odette, Cleo Anthony, Craig Bierko, Darius Homayoun, Dylan Bruce, Jonathan Sadowski, Li Jun Li and Wallis Day.

In addition to creating the series, Rukeyser serves as an executive producer alongside J. Miles Dale and Jordan Hawley.

Watch the “Sex/Life” official trailer below.

The love triangle is expanding in the newly released trailer for season two of Netflix’s steamy series Sex/Life.

The show, created by Stacy Rukeyser, follows suburban mom Billie Connelly (Sarah Shahi) as she initially gets caught up in a love triangle between her reliable husband Cooper (Mike Vogel) and her ex-boyfriend Brad Simon (Adam Demos). As she starts to reminisce about her wild and youthful days in New York City with Brad, she journals the passionate moments. But as she continues to take a trip down memory lane, she finds herself questioning how she got to where she is — a stay-at-home wife and mother in Connecticut.

The trailer for the second season, released Monday, begins with Billie saying, “One of the most important decisions you’ll ever make is who to spend your life with.” And that’s a decision she is clearly still trying to figure out.

In the sultry footage,...

One of the most surprising hits of 2021 on Netflix is returning next month.

The official trailer for Sex/Life Season 2 is here, and it looks like Billie will have a new love interest in mind.

The trailer also seemingly confirms that it's all over between Billie and Cooper.

"I'm not [upset], I'm just done," Cooper says.

Things aren't much better with Brad, either.

"I came to you six months ago with a ring," he tells her, adding the following:

"You said no, and now it's too late."

As for the new man in Billie's life, Majid (played by Darius Homayoun), he looks like a lot of fun.

The first season featured plenty of steamy twists that got the fans talking -- and streaming.

Will the show be able to live up to its moniker again for the second time?

We'll need to tune in when the series returns, but if the trailer is any indication,...

Billie Connelly is done sleepwalking through life in the new teaser for Sex/Life season two.

The Netflix drama series follows Sarah Shahi’s Billie as she enters into a love triangle with her reliable, suburban husband Cooper (Mike Vogel) and her “sexy ex-boyfriend” Brad (Adam Demos), whom she dated during her once-wild, free-spirited youth in New York City.

When Billie begins journaling to relive her passionate exploits throughout the city that never sleeps, she finds herself wondering how she got to this place in her life, as a stay-at-home wife and mother living in Connecticut.

“Not everyone has it: The desire to wake up, stop sleepwalking through our lives,” Shahi says in a voiceover at the top of the teaser, “to stop trying to do the right thing while denying our truth, but those of us who do, we tread in dangerous waters.”

The high-stakes teaser sees not only Billie and Brad rekindling once again,...

Our “Sex/Life” is now back on track.

After Billie (Sarah Shahi) chose ex and arguably her first true love Brad (Adam Demos) in the Season 1 finale, the aftermath is exposed with Billie’s husband Cooper (Mike Vogel) pursuing a new relationship of his own.

Margaret Odette, Cleo Anthony, Craig Bierko, Darius Homayoun, Dylan Bruce, Jonathan Sadowski, Li Jun Li, and Wallis Day also star in the Netflix series.

The second season is teased to be unpacking the love triangle between a woman, her husband, and her past that takes a provocative new look at female identity and desire, per the official logline. Billie navigates new challenges — and fresh desires — as she lusts after the life she wants. But will she be able to have it all?

“Once you wake up, once you get even just a tiny taste, there’s no going back,” Billie says in the teaser, adding...

One of Netflix's most-talked-about shows (for all the wrong reasons!) has a return date.

Yes, we're talking about Sex/Life.

It was one of the most talked about shows because of a particular scene in the third episode of the debut season.

We won't be delving into that today, but we can tell you when the second season is set to premiere.

Talk about silver linings!

Netflix confirmed Thursday that all episodes of Sex/Life Season 2 are set to premiere on March 2.

"Sex/Life is the story of a love triangle between a woman, her husband, and her past that takes a provocative new look at female identity and desire," Netflix's logline for Season 2 revealed.

It seems that Netflix wants viewers to tune in for the plot instead of giving all of the details away before the series returns.

According to the company’s two-minute view standard, 67 million of Netflix’s member accounts watched Sex/Life in its first four weeks of release. In the United States, the series from creator Stacy Rukeyser (UnReal) racked up about 1.44 billion minutes of viewing time in the four full weeks following its premiere, per Nielsen figures.

Victoria Justice (Afterlife of the Party) and Adam Demos (Sex/Life) have signed on to star in an untitled romantic comedy, which Stuart McDonald (Summer Heights High, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend) is directing for Netflix.

The film written by Elizabeth Hackett and Hilary Galanoy centers on a hard-driving LA wine-company exec who travels to an Australian sheep station to land a major client. There, she ends up working as a ranch hand and sparking with a rugged local.

Robyn Snyder, Deborah Evans, Deborah Glover, and Tracey Vieira are producing the pic, which will be shot on location in Queensland, Australia.

Tracey Robertson is exec producing with Nathan Mayfield, Elizabeth Hackett, Hilary Galanoy and Fernando Szew.

Production and post-production will be supported by the Queensland Government through Screen Queensland’s Production Attraction Strategy. The film will create around 120 jobs for Queenslanders.

Just when we didn't think Netflix could get any steamier than Bridgerton, the streaming platform went and dropped the first season of Sex/Life, and damn, have our lives changed for the better. Thanks to those tantalizing sex scenes and episode three, minute 20 (Iykyk), Sex/Life has left viewers weak in the knees in anticipation of a second season. So what's the sitch? Netflix has yet to give Sex/Life the green light for another season, but based on fans' reactions to the series thus far, we think the likelihood of seeing more of Brad Simon's (Adam Demos) chiseled body is pretty high.

It's not uncommon for Netflix to hold off on commenting on a show's renewal status, especially for a series in its freshmen season. It could be a few months until we get official word from the streaming platform, but Sex/Life's lead Sarah Shahi is optimistic: "We've been in...

There's a reason Sex/Life has become summer's most talked about show. No, we aren't talking about that headline-making shower scene, rather, the season one finale stunned viewers as it ended with housewife Billie (Sarah Shahi) betraying husband Cooper (Mike Vogel) by beginning an affair with bad-boy ex-boyfriend Brad (Adam Demos). In fact, even the show's leading lady was blown away by the unexpected conclusion. "I have to say Stacy Rukeyser and her writers are such an incredible group," Sarah exclusively told E! News. "My jaw was to the ground pretty much at the end of every episode. But, I definitely didn't expect for it to go there because, you know, you keep...

While the internet may be in a tizzy over one jaw-dropping scene from Sex/Life, it was just another day at the office for the show's stars. In an exclusive chat with E! News, Sex/Life star Mike Vogel revealed what it was really like filming the show's more risqué moments, including his headline-making shower scene with co-star Adam Demos. According to Mike, Sex/Life showrunner Stacy Rukeyser warned the stars that this was "going to be a real watercooler type of moment." And, boy, was she right. For those who've yet to tune in, episode three features Mike's character Cooper as he follows his wife's ex-boyfriend Brad (played by Adam) around town. During this stalking...

After 20 years of film and television work, Sarah Shahi returns to the small screen in her most “risqué” project yet — Netflix’s Sex/Life. Shahi plays Billie Connelly, a young mother and housewife who yearns for her past life to such a degree that she begins to test her marriage and friendships in the process. Created by Stacy Rukeyser, Sex/Life is told through a woman’s perspective in more ways than one as each episode is helmed by a woman director. Thus, Shahi was intrigued by the elaborate sex scenes that focused on the woman’s point of view for a ...

Was it a stand-in? A prosthetic? Netflix's latest series Sex/Life recently featured Australian actor Adam Demos revealing all of himself while in the, now much-publicized, shower scene, leaving viewers flabbergasted and speculating. They all want to get the skinny. Is it real?

Now Australian media personality Em Rusciano has shared 'proof' that the size of the actor's manhood needed neither stand-in nor CGI She took to Instagram to post private DMs she had received from people who grew up in Adam's hometown, who seem to confirm that his size is real.

"Hey Em, I grew up in the same town as Adam Demos (a year below me at school) and I can guarantee you there were no special effects," one person messaged. "He is a big boy!!"

A second follower sent a similar message, sharing, "My family grew up in Dapto with Adam Demos. My sister asked his bestie...

Should we have expected that there would be full-frontal nudity on a Netflix show called Sex/Life? Yes, but that didn't stop our jaws from dropping when Adam Demos appeared on full display as Brad Simon during episode three, "Empire State of Mind." It seems that Cooper Connelly (Mike Vogel) wasn't the only one shocked at the size of Brad's penis, as fans immediately began to wonder whether or not it was Demos during the scene. Well, it looks like we have an answer thanks to an interview in Collider with showrunner Stacy Rukeyser. "No. That's not a body double. I mean, people usually ask 'is it real or is it a prosthetic,'" she told the outlet. "And I can tell you what Adam Demos says about it which is, 'a gentleman never tells.' So, we are leaving that up to the viewer's imagination."

If you're wondering what Demos...
