The Girl's Guide to Depravity

As of this review "The Girl's Guide to Depravity" is two episodes into its premier season. After viewing them both, I can honestly say that the show has a lot of promise. It reminds me of what "Life on Top" was during season one; lighthearted, fun, and sexy. Rebecca Blumhagen and Sally Golan star as Lizzy and Sam, two ladies looking for love (and sex) in Chicago. Ultimately they would like to settle down (Sam more so than Lizzy) but in the interim want to have their fun without involving their feelings. That's where the rules come in.

The ladies are well cast; they are both very pretty, but they are everyday woman beautiful and not Hollywood beautiful. They work and hang out at the bar like everyday people. That adds elements of realism to the show. Couple that with the sex scenes not being overly choreographed. They look like they are just having sex and not trying to put on a production. That can be appreciated in the era of overdone moaning and screaming to simulate sexual satisfaction. Also, the show's setting Chicago is a breath of fresh air in the New York/L.A. dominated TV universe.

Overall, the show is entertaining. I can't wait to see what the rules and their libidos get these ladies into later this season. Kudos to Cinemax for giving its viewers something more than T & A on an After Dark show. I suppose this is their apology for "Chemistry".

I started watching because as soon as I put it on Cinemax, Sally started saying something funny and didn't stop. Both her and Rebecca have a very good chemistry on screen. Rebecca is SUPER adorable, absolutely beautiful and very funny. Sally is sexy and is downright hilarious. I just wish the show lasted longer. I have a female roommate and I recently introduced her to the show. We watched one episode and went to On Demand and started watching the rest of the season. She loved it and even mentioned that girls really do talk and act like that and that's why she loved the show. It is relatable to what a lot of women are going through. There are only 3 shows I watch regularly and this is one of them. It kind of reminds me of Sex and the City but a more watchable fun version. I love this show!

This show is shown in acting classrooms around the world as an example of bad acting.

I think The Girls Guide to Depravity is the best new show on TV. Excellent story lines, great writing, but there's one part that impresses me the most. And that is Rebecca Blumhagen, who plays Samantha. I think Rebecca is the prettiest lady on TV, a fantastic actress, playing a fun to watch character. There's a lot to like about this show, but I think in time, the whole world will know about Rebecca because she is on her way to stardom, this is just the beginning for her. I love everything about how the show is done and presented, it's the best show on Cinemax. But it wouldn't be the same without Rebecca Blumhagen, she is so real, easy to like, and as beautiful as they get. I never miss Girls Guide, I watch it on Demand as well, it's hard to wait a week for new episodes.I hope it's back next year, and I look forward to watch the career of Rebecca Blumhagen take off

OK, so I found out about this show after a night of heavy drinking, browsing the early morning premium channels seeing what's what and if anything good was on.

I stumbled upon this show ..... At first glance, this seemed (to me) like soft-core porn wrapped in a lackluster sitcom-type comedy routine. Luckily, I was immediately smitten by the lead character Sam, and continued watching a few more episodes.

After having watched approx 12 more episodes, all I can say now is "What an awesome f*****g show". Sure, there are 2-minute long sex scenes in almost every episode (if not more!).... but remember, people, this is Cinemax. With other Cinemax series like "Banshee" blending an equally twisted story of drama and erotica.... the erotic scenes in this show are simply par for the course for Cinemax series. Further, the great news is that the erotic scenes in this show are not only awesome and really hot, but are tied together with an enjoyable and comedic story line that becomes incredibly visible once you look through the shock and awe of the erotica sex scenes.

This is my new favorite show!
