Sex/Life plot: What's it about?
Billie is a suburban wife and mother, whose life mostly consists of taking care of her family and husband and keeping her home together. But her life hasn't always been so traditionally conventional; before moving to Connecticut with her kind, reliable husband Cooper, Billie lived in New York City.
And 'live', she did - along with her best friend Sasha, she worked hard and played harder, making use of her sexual freedom to the fullest.
In a moment of exhaustion from her daily life, Billie begins reminiscing on her sexiest times, particularly those involving her ex, Brad, who broke her heart. She's moved enough to start writing the stories down in a journal. What she wasn't counting on, however, was Cooper finding the journal and learning the truth about her desires and past.
Will the revelations start a sexual revolution in her marriage? Or will they lead her down a path back to the life she thought she left behind - with the man who broke her heart?
With all-female directors and mostly female writers and department heads, Sex/Life explores desire from a woman's perspective.
Sex/Life cast
Heading up the Sex/Life cast is Sarah Shahi as Billie, who you may recognise from shows such as Person of Interest, Chicago Fire and The L Word, in which she played Carmen from 2005-2009.
