For two seasons now, housewife Billie (Sarah Shahi) has been slowly losing the life she once knew in favor of chasing the high of her sexually adventurous youth. In Netflix's "Sex/Life," Billie finds herself torn between her reliable husband Cooper (Mike Vogel), and Brad (Adam Demos), the hunky Australian ex who wanders back into her life. Later, when the romantic house of cards she's built tumbles down completely, she ends up hooked on a new man, restaurant owner Majid (Darius Homayoun). "Sex/Life" definitely isn't Netflix's best show, but plenty of fans still like the "Sex and The City"-style series because it's a reliably steamy adult-oriented romance.
Apparently, though, Billie's wild ride has come to an end. Variety is reporting that the Stacy Rukeyser-created show "Sex/Life" has been canceled after just two seasons. Luckily, though, the show actually wrapped up most of its major plotlines in its latest season finale.

Netflix has canceled Sex/Life after two seasons. The news isn’t all that surprising as series star Sarah Shahi recently signed on to star in ABC’s legal drama Judgement.
Inspired by B.B. Easton’s 44 Chapters About 4 Men, Sex/Life starred Sarah Shahi as Billie Connelly who, “exhausted from taking care of her two kids and feeling nostalgic for the free-spirited life she lived in New York with her best friend Sasha (Margaret Odette) before marrying loving and reliable Cooper (Mike Vogel), starts journaling and fantasizing about her exploits with an ex (Adam Demos).” While the first season of Sex/Life had 232.70 million hours of viewing time over a nearly four-week period, the second season only had 126.8 million hours in a similar time frame. That’s a drop of about 45%, so you can understand why Netflix canceled Sex/Life.

Netflix‘s Sex/Life has been canceled after delivering its long-awaited second season starring Sarah Shahi, Adam Demos, Margaret Odette, and Mike Vogel. The series focused on a love triangle between Shahi’s Billie, her husband Cooper (Vogel), and her past, all while taking a provocative new look at female identity and desire. After debuting in June of 2021, viewers were eager for the show’s return which didn’t take place until the beginning of March 2023. It seems that the lengthy waiting period didn’t do the show any favors, as it likely contributed to its Season 2 performance. But while viewership is likely a factor in the show’s fate, Shahi recently spoke out about her Season 2 experience and how it differed from the supportive one she had during Season 1. (Credit: Sabrina Lantos/Netflix) Speaking on Amanda Hirsch’s Not Skinny But Not Fat podcast on Tuesday, April 4, Shahi said the production was a “challenge.

Netflix has canceled its drama series Sex/Life after two seasons.
The decision comes five weeks after the show’s second season (consisting of six episodes, down from eight in season one) debuted — and three weeks after star Sarah Shahi signed on to star in Judgement, a legal drama in contention for next season at ABC.
Season two brought an ending of sorts to the story as Shahi’s Billie reunited with her ex, Brad (Adam Demos), and got married on a beach. Showrunner Stacy Rukeyser, however, told The Hollywood Reporter that she didn’t view the last episode as the end of the series.
“The episode was never intended to be a series finale, that’s for sure,” Rukeyser told THR a week after season two premiered. “I know there are always more stories to tell with these characters in the Sex/Life universe, and I hope we get the chance to tell those stories.

Sara Shahi can currently be seen in the second season of seductive Netflix hit “Sex/Life”, and during an appearance on the “Not Skinny but Not Fat” podcast she opened up about how reading the script for the pilot episode gave her the “courage” to end her marriage to “Shameless” star Steve Howey.
“I was just questioning everything. As a wife and as a mom, you get told, ‘Well, but you have it good. You have it good,'” she said, as reported by People. “I just felt so unseen. … [‘Sex/Life’] gave me the courage to say, ‘I’m not happy. And I feel like we should as individuals have the right to be happy.'”
According to Shahi, the arrival of their children — William, 13, and twins Violet and Knox, 8 — led to some unforeseen changes in their marriage.

On the heels of Jenna Ortega speaking out about changing lines during a tense “Wednesday” production, fellow Netflix star Shahi admitted that she felt the second installment of the steamy viral series was more “gimmicky” than the first, in part due to a change in attitude from the filmmakers.

Shahi added, “That’s part of what I do. I’m not always going to get along or agree with a filmmaker. I’m not always going to like what I have to do or say. But that’s my job, to make it believable.”

[This story contains spoilers to the season two finale of Netflix’s Sex/Life.]
The second season of Sex/Life may have ended with happily ever after, but creator and showrunner Stacy Rukeyser says there is still much more story to tell.
The steamy Netflix drama starring Sarah Shahi ended its six-episode sophomore season by reuniting Billie Connelly (Shahi), now a divorced mother of two, with her ex Brad (Adam Demos) after setting them on separate paths for most of the season. The finale saw the pair more connected than ever as they get married on the beach and react to Billie’s news that she is pregnant.
While Rukeyser awaits news about a potential third season — “Netflix has two calls. One is after 10 days and one is after 28 days.

The second season of Sex/Life may have ended with happily ever after, but creator and showrunner Stacy Rukeyser says there is still much more story to tell.
The steamy Netflix drama starring Sarah Shahi ended its six-episode sophomore season by reuniting Billie Connelly (Shahi), now a divorced mother of two, with her ex Brad (Adam Demos) after setting them on separate paths for most of the season.
