I am no prude but tonights episode was just a little over the top with the sexcapades. Last week also. How many times do they have to say sex in one show? I like some risque humor and innuendo but tonights was WAY too blantant and saturated.

I agree. I've always liked this show, and I've never felt the sexual aspect was over the top, but I felt they crossed a line this time. For one thing, it wasn't funny. As I was watching, I just kept thinking about how "Frasier" used to tackle similar situations and always did it much better. The quality of the writing aside, the thing that really put me off was the fact that the various couplings were one step removed from being incestuous, and it became a very small step when Kandi and her father ended up in the hot tub at the same time. I didn't need to see that.

and how many times did they say "sex" in one episode. You can play a drinking game with that.

That might have been the best way to watch that episode.

Unfortunately, I don't drink so the best I could have hoped for would have been to get woozy on green tea.
