Most people think about sex every six seconds. Shorten that to EVERY second and you've got Coupling. These people think about sex, they talk about sex, sometimes they even have sex. And they do it all in the most bizarre, hilarious fashion imaginable. Coupling features six thirty-something friends involved, formerly involved, or looking to become involved with each other in some of the funniest, most compromising and embarrassing situations ever presented on TV. Think the best bits of Friends, Seinfeld and Sex and the City rolled together in one hip, new comedy and you've got Coupling.Episode 1: Flushed: Jane refuses to accept Steve's break-up until Steve asks out Susan, who has just broken up with Patrick, the lust-interest of Sally. Are they all "unflushable?" Ask Jeff. Episode 2: Size Matters: Jeff explains "the sock gap," Steve checks out Susan's remotes, Sally checks out Patrick's size, and Jane defines sexual preferences in a new light. Episode 3: Sex, Death and Nudity: Jeff initiates Steve and Patrick into the "giggle loop," while Jane and Susan and Sally swap dates for Jane's aunt's funeral. Episode 4: Inferno: Susan has discovered Steve's "video collection." Jane brings her therapist to a dinner party, where the main topic is art vs. pornography. Episode 5: The Girl With Two Breasts: Jeff has a torturous time chatting up a beautiful foreign woman, while Steve and Patrick discuss the merits of "breasts with brains." Episode 6: The Cupboard Of Patrick's Love: Steve is appalled, Jeff is excited, and Jane and Sally feel left out as everyone realizes that Susan must be among the stars of Patrick's video collection.
Editor's Note
Intended to be a FRIENDS across the Atlantic, this BBC series offers the same virtual scenario as the New York-based series with one exception, a greater emphasis on sex. Six friends in various states of relationships are caught in hilarious and often embarrassing situations that often lead to sexual tension, if not out and out sexual activity. This collection comprises the entire first season.
