Ahh! It's good to be young, sexy, beautiful, and "connected". What began as a small show about prejudice, sexuality, and substance abuse, typical issues to be dealt with in today's society, took a twist and began displaying the darker side such as irresponsible behavior and immaturity among a group of friends. Ben Lewis (Ryan Hansen from Superhero Movie, Housebroken) a bachelor who is carefree and constantly on the lookout for his kind of woman, one who meets the impossible standards he holds. Then we have famous "bromances" between Aaron and Ben that prove friendships can stand the test of time. Ben and his gal pal, Sara know how well a third party can shake up the mixture that romantic life can create. Friends with Benefits revolves around five friends with love issues. Seems they have set their standards so high they can't find the right mate so eventually have to settle for something somewhat less than they'd hoped for. But sometimes less is best and ultimately proves to be more.

Whether you approve or not, Playboy is a brand name that implies class and high quality along with nudity and debauchery. Quite a combination considering it all began with a magazine that was banned from many store racks or had to be wrapped in brown paper. The Clubs spread across the country and the cream of society could often be seen in attendance. What was it about the man Hugh Hefner and his concept that created so much controversy? Why did some women feel degraded while others loved all of the attention they got? Being a "former Playboy Playmate" remains a social coup that those who claim it are most definitely proud to claim! Now to the series running on the NBC network. It was first to be called "Bunny Tales" but was changed to The Playboy Club and Hefner himself reviews each script and gives his approval even though he is reportedly keeping a "hands-off" approach to any revisions. And the much younger Hugh Hefner character on the series will only be seen from behind. Producers include Brian Grazer and Francie Calfo so this should be a quality production with top acting and good writers. Cast includes Amber Heard, Eddie Cibrian, and Naturi Naughton.

Las Vegas, Nevada has long had the reputation of harboring legalized prostitution but very little has ever been mentioned about male prostitutes also known as Gigolos. In fact that particular line of work is definitely illegal and won't be tolerated by the police in the city of Vegas itself or anywhere else in the state of Nevada. That being said, it is apparently a popular and common tradition to escort women who are lonely and want the companionship of good looking men who can take them out on the town or simply take them to bed. This series, running on cable's Showtime channel will show how the lives of several Las Vegas Gigolos, all working at the same escort agency, are played out and how they can so easily get women to pay for their sexual or social services. The five main Gigolos include Nick Hawk, Steven Gantt, Jimmy Dior, Vin Armani, and Brace. Brace has been in the business a long time and tries to come up with a product line that will enable him to retire from the business he's in. Gantt is single with a son he needs to provide support for. Clabots is a personal trainer and actor who is apparently also gay. Armani is new to the game and has lots to learn. And we also see Garren James who is the "Cowboys4Angels" escort agency owner. Interesting premise and something quite different on our TV sets!

"The Secret Diary of a Call Girl" probably reveals a lot more secrets of men's pet call-girl fantasies than it discloses about the private lives and lusts of the working girls in your neighbourhood. In Belle's journal, for example, human trafficking, violence, exploitation, sexually transmitted diseases, and drug abuse are conveniently air-brushed out, so that Belle can focus on her favourite theme: "Why do I do it?" she asks ingenuously at the beginning, "Well, I love sex, and I love money." "The Secret Diary of a Call Girl" persists in the naive notion that it might be just that simple. As one loyal viewer suggests, "Imagine Carrie Bradshaw enjoying sex in her city for money." Naive or not, the notion sells. "The Secret Diary of a Call Girl" debuted with the highest ratings in recent Showtime history, scoring nearly a million viewers and holding more than 70% of its so-called "lead-in" viewers, the folks who had tuned-in for the season premier of "Weeds." Credit Billie Piper with playing Belle so alluringly and convincingly that "The Secret Diary of a Call Girl" inspires more-than-willing suspension of disbelief.

If you ever thought that there are enough dating-related TV game-shows, the brand new-fresh-UK-imported Take Me Out has to discourage you. This another "The Bachelor-like" television show has shown a great success in Australia and UK. Now Take Me Out has approached USA. The show is hosted by George Lopez who often looks like a little bit embarrassed by stupid around-the-sex jokes and idiotic commentaries of participants. Nevertheless he tries to keep in line, sometimes playing up with some jests like "Let the hot dog see his buns!" Tremendously popular among the teenagers (guess why) Take Me Out features strict, simple and ingenuous scenario: 30 women vote for guys by turning off the lights (if they don't like him) and leaving the lights on. In short "no lighty, no likey." While women are voting the guy is trying the expose himself in favorable light dancing to the music of his own selection. In which connection, it looks as silly as sounds. If this act of self-exposing will not divert all the women, the next stage will surely will do. After the "dance", guys undergo the question asking where their true nature has more chances to climb out. This is where the fun begins "“ you should definitely hear these passages. Even if you absolutely hating that kind of series, you have to hold back yourself from turning the TV off "“ only just to hear what they are saying at the end of their misfortunate way.
