Showtime’s new series MASTERS OF SEX is getting quite a bit of pre-release acclaim in advance of the series premiere next week, but that isn’t stopping the network from trying to build buzz around the adult-oriented drama. Starring Lizzy Caplan and Michael Sheen, MASTERS OF SEX follows the scientific exploits of Masters and Johnson who engineered the controversial study of human sexual behavior in the late 1950s.
Available now on YouTube is the full pilot episode which features the entire uncut show which includes Lizzy Caplan in the buff. That alone makes it mandatory viewing for me as I have enjoyed everything the actress has done from MEAN GIRLS, HOT TUB TIME MACHINE, CLOVERFIELD, and PARTY DOWN. Plus, the show is pretty damn good, too. I wondered how they could sustain the story for an ongoing series, but the real-life Masters and Johnson continued their research for almost thirty years.
The pilot cannot be embedded due to the adult content, but follow this link to see the whole show. Otherwise, get ready for the premiere on Showtime Sunday, September 29th at 10pm EST following HOMELAND.
