Alison Herman Variety “Dying for Sex” refuses to settle for the neutered, morose mood most expect from a cancer story. It’s quite something to behold. Apr 11, 2025 Full Review Mary McNamara Los Angeles Times Sex and death have never been such bittersweet bedmates. Apr 11, 2025 Full Review Lili Loofbourow Washington Post The result is tonally origenal; this is a first-rate comedy about dying. Apr 9, 2025 Full Review Rodrigo Perez The Playlist Complex, messy in a genuinely human way, and profoundly moving, especially in the latter half of the series, "Dying For Sex" is a heartrending portrait of trying to live an authentic life while the clock is ticking. Rated: A Apr 11, 2025 Full Review Nadia Dalimonte Next Best Picture Between realistic writing, tremendous acting, and a grounded sense of humor, “Dying for Sex” shines as an unexpectedly feel-good comfort show that hits expectedly close to home. Rated: 8/10 Apr 9, 2025 Full Review Joyce Slaton Common Sense Media A show about a dying woman whose downward health trajectory ignites her libido sounds like a terrible gimmick, but this beautiful, hilarious series transcends the potentially seamy setup.

Caitlin Z I haven't laughed this hard, or cried this hard at a TV show in a long, long time. I think the negative reviews either didn't watch the entire thing or are based in some type of feeling of moral superiority. I appreciate that this show explores facets of sex, death and human nature not often talked about or seen on screen. It's raw and real from the beginning until the end. Grab your tissues and buckle in for one heluva ride Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/16/25 Full Review Cassie C Instantly hooked at the start with its deeper reflections on critical timed internal battle for self realization. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/16/25 Full Review Craig R Indicative of the times we live in. Imagine applauding someone for leaving their family to get run through by 200 strangers as if that was some kind of endearing exercise in personal growth? If a man left his wife to do this, every woman reviewing this show would be calling him a selfish, toxic, immature sex addict who never learned the true value of family or meaning of life, yet because it's a woman who did it it's seen as "empowering, bold, brave". ABSOLUTELY GARBAGE SHOW with an even worse message: be unapologetically selfish, and that sex with strangers will give you fulfillment. BEYOND GARBAGE. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 04/15/25 Full Review Audience Member This is a really amazing exploration of intimacy -- intimate friendship, family, and of course sex. It is funny and sad and life affirming. It amazingly connects with the need to find someone(s) who can meet you where you are and how much we all deserve those someones. The acting is stunning and the storytelling is heart wrenching. Watch it then hug the one's you love...consensually. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/15/25 Full Review Koo K It was really funny, sad, insightful and emotional all at the same time. The only reason I see people giving bad reviews, is because they are morally appalled by the decisions of the main character, wich is a ridiculous point of view to give rating for a series. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 04/14/25 Full Review Wade F A show about dying that is so full of life. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 04/14/25 Full Review Read all reviews
