#1 Virgin River, Season 7
4.5

Season 7 is noticeably steamier, but the increased intimacy is generally viewed positively and described as tasteful, playful fan service rather than excessive.

Pros: supporting cast performance, acting quality

Cons: character consistency, screenplay quality

#2 I Will Find You
4.0

Sexual content appears minimal in the reviewed material. One source says there is no sex or nudity, though profanity and violence remain present.

Pros: cinematography, drama quality

Cons: writing quality, plot clarity

#3 The Boroughs, Season 1
3.8

Sexual content is present as part of the show’s older-character vitality rather than as shock value. One review noted the horniness as a surprising quirk of the ensemble.

Pros: main cast performance, acting quality

Cons: cancellation satisfaction, plot clarity

#4 Running Point, Season 2
3.5

The season includes limited romantic passion in Isla’s dreams, noted without strong concern or disapproval.

Pros: media scrutiny portrayal, season finale quality

Cons: cancellation satisfaction, product placement

#5 Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen, Season 1
2.8

Sex is present without explicit nudity, but the strange foreplay and adult relationship context reinforce that this is not light or family-safe viewing.

Pros: special effects quality, soundtrack quality

Cons: screenplay quality, series finale quality

#6 Mating Season, Season 1
2.6

Sexual content is the defining trait, and approval depends on taste. Fans call the raunch bold or surprisingly balanced; detractors say it overwhelms story, humor, and comfort.

Pros: realism, cultural representation

Cons: age appropriateness, violence level

#7 Louis C.K.: Ridiculous
2.3

Sexual and child-abuse-related jokes are one of the most repeated concerns. The taboo approach may work for some tolerant viewers, but many will find those bits strange, excessive, or damaging...

Pros: main cast performance, dialogue quality

Cons: accountability handling, family friendliness

#8 Michael Jackson: The Verdict
2.0

The series contains explicit discussion of alleged sexual abuse and related police-interview material. Reviewers describe those sections as wince-inducing, graphic, and difficult to watch.

Pros: directing quality, modern political framing

Cons: value for money, family friendliness

#9 Calabasas Confidential, Season 1
1.2

Sexual content is not a major thread in most coverage, but Brandi Glanville’s graphic oversharing became a notable viewer complaint.

Pros: world-building, costume design

Cons: family friendliness, age appropriateness
