I'd been really wary of how this would turn out, but that first episode hit all the right notes. I like that it immediately introduced pretty high stakes to the research. Caplan and Sheen are compelling, and that bombshell at the end is a great way to confront the obvious while making it a nice quasi-cliffhanger. The vibe is a lot like Mad Men but with more talks about nipples and blowjobs instead of money and sales.
I'm going to be honest, though, I'm mainly super excited to see a show treating human sexuality as an equally important scientific/medical subject as the diagnostics and psychiatry.
Also, finally: an acclaimed cable drama that's not going to revolve around violence. Think about how incredibly rare that is.
