Then the show wold be about breaking TV conventions and sex, not about the people or the study.

I find the sex on this show distinctly un-sexy. Yeah the people are attractive enough (that's Hollywood), but the sex is nearly always mechanical, forced, or the outcome of some kind of emotional problem. Of course there are exceptions (Johnson), but most of the sex is not the kind that one would ever fantasize about.

I don't think you quite understand mating.

Sounds true to the original. I could easily mistake his voice for one of the Everly Brothers.

Get off my lawn young 'un.

I was in a bar the other day, and the whole place started to sing along to La Bamba.

Hayseed Dixie.

The guy decries it as fomenting an "apocalyptic paranoid fantasy."

I don't know how he sings, but his rapping sucks.

I was under impression he is a manic depressive who suffers horrible seasonal affective disorder, so he lives in Southern California because the sunshine helps his mental health.

Most people in the states have no idea who he is. He doesn't even register. The only reason I know about him is because I lived in Britain 2001-2006. I was actually quite surprised to see this article.

I think his sperm dies every time she calls him daddy.

Obviously you have not watched the first episode. Mr and Mrs Masters do not have sexy sex….. Daddy.

Who is the female vocalist?

"Not optional sex" is …. well, rape.

I have always disliked Hank as a character (well written, just unlikable). So I was completely surprised that Hank's death hit me so hard. It was like a punch in the gut, and I finally hated Walt for it.

That was my thought. The line is

You beat me too it. That is the first thing I thought of.

Yeah, I used to live just 2 miles from Gruene Hall, and there was always music there (often for free). When there wasn't, we would spend many afternoons drinking beer and pitching horseshoes in the courtyard.
