Nude tv show scene (photos)

There was a time when you could turn on virtually any premium cable show late at night and be reasonably assured that you could see a nude scene—an actor at least one breast, a butt, or possibly even a penis. Sometimes these shows were overtly erotic, like Showtime’s Red Shoe Diaries or the softcore movies on the platform that came to be known as “Skinemax.” Other times they were ostensibly sexual, but frequently non-titillating, like ’s Real Sex, which traumatized an entire generation with its commitment to graphic portrayals of aging hippies with weird fetishes and polyamorous lifestyles. Real Sex was the soft-porn equivalent of your dad catching you smoking and making you finish the whole pack.

Different nudity seems far truer than no nudity, and indeed, in trying to think of shows that still have nude scenes, I initially glossed over a few that I’d seen and enjoyed. Not because they didn’t exist, but simply because they didn’t fit my childhood conception of what a “nude scene” was. i.e., something created and received largely for titillation alone, to let you know that you were watching something illicit and naughty. That doesn’t really square with, say, , a show that has consistent nudity, but where it’s used exclusively as a punchline. In other shows, nudity can be more of a character choice, or something essential to maintaining the reality of the scene (if the show is about the porn industry or sex research, say). In Euphoria, instilling an air of naughtiness still seems intentional. White Lotus seems to strike a balance between nudity as a punchline and sexy nudity (male nudity generally being used for comedy far more often than female nudity).

One memorable scene from the Wild West-themed show sees a nude Thandie sitting on a metal hospital-like table with her legs crossed.

Setting speculation aside, let’s return to the infamous Aimee Lou Wood sex scene from . For those who haven’t seen the show, the scene in question was very literally . I would say that I’m shocked that Netflix, who have a spotty but ultimately rather cold association with nude scenes, would lead out with something like this, but then when you factor in just how little nudity there is in the rest of the show, it comes back around to make sense again. Unlike HBO, which is producing The White Lotus, there isn’t really for for gratuitous nudity with Netflix. Arguably HBO has lost its touch there as well, but that’s a different story and one that will hopefully reverse course.

The Vera Jordanova bikini scene at the hot springs later in the movie is legit, though, and to be fair, other than her CGI or composited nipples, the rest of her boobs are on show, so it ain’t too bad. Just need to use a bit more imagination. But if that puts you off the movie, don’t let it, because Heather Matarazzo has a long and graphic (and somewhat disturbing) nude scene in that has been confirmed as being all her au naturel. Lauren German doesn’t have any nude scenes in the film, which surprised no one, and neither does Bijou Phillips, which surprised everyone who has seen her in any of her other roles. films seem quite chaotic on nudity, so it is what it is, I suppose. You’ll definitely be seeing more of Heather here soon, but in the meantime, enjoy Vera Jordanova nude (kind of) in Hostel: Part II.
