It seems such a perfect fit that you wonder why it hasn’t been done yet. A cable drama focussing on sexologists, with all the inevitable nudity and sex involved, is obvious verging on lazy in a world where it seems every show must include breasts and bottoms (I wanted that alliteration) on a weekly basis. Can Masters of Sex justify itself as something more than a bevy of naked people frolicking for the camera? So far, despite its issues, it can and it does.
Set in the 1960s, the series follows the origins of the world-famous sexology team of Dr. William Masters and Virginia Johnson. Though they are credited with all manner of discoveries into the human sexual condition, their work was initially met with hostility, deemed inappropriate subject matter for any respectable research institution to take part in.
The pilot begins before the work has begun in earnest. Dr. William Masters (Michael Sheen) is a brilliant, by the book scientist whose work has brought himself and his hospital into prestige. Consumed with a desire to explore the origins of life through studying human sexuality, he sets out to find a new assistant to ready his work to be presented to the college. Though Virginia Johnson (Lizzy Caplan) is not particularly well-educated, her willingness to participate, combined with her unique perspective of the project, lands her the job as Masters’ assistant.
The episode largely follows a formula of Johnson chasing down female recruits for the study and Masters chasing down his superiors to get approval for the project, all of which culminates in a rather predictable, attempt at manufacturing a moment of uncertain worry toward the end of the episode. None of this, it should be said, is particularly good.
