The most unrealistic sex scenes on television, ranked

Riverdale, pls.
  • 22 Jan 2020

Let's face it, sex on TV can be so perfect it's almost intimidating. But we know it's not like that IRL.

WATCH: Sex Education: Season 2 | Official Trailer | Netflix

Here are some of the most unrealistic sex scenes on TV ranked to slightly more realistic.

10. American Horror Story: Hotel

The only realistic part of this supernatural orgy is the blood everywhere.

Kidding!

9. The Notebook

More importantly, the very famous sex scene on The Notebook has forever been scrutinised for how unrealistic it is. It's highly unlikely that as a girl, Ally could reach an orgasm that easily. No matter how hot Ryan Gosling was.

8. 13 Reasons Why - Hannah and Zach

The fact that this was kept a secret so long is the most surprising thing about Hannah and Zach's reveal. Just try and keep a schoolboy quiet after he loses his virginity!

7. Spring Breakers

We don't expect many of you will partake in a threesome with your besties and a weedy man on vacation. The movie is a creepy look at how girls party together, through the eyes of a very horny man.

6. 50 Shades of Grey

This one kinda goes without saying.

5. Riverdale - Archie and Veronica's shower sex

The most unrealistic thing about this sex scene is that Archie would be in the mood to bang when he just left his dad in hospital after being violently shot.

4. 13 Reasons Why - Hannah and Zach

Maddy picking a random guy to have sex with, in a pool while at a raging house party to get back at her on-again-off-again boyfriend just isn't what you'd see IRL.

3. Sex Education

What we love about Sex Education is how they're finally portraying REAL sex on TV, while tackling issues on sex that young people need to know. 

2. The O.C. - Summer and Seth

The O.C.

Now, this is what we call REALITY. Seth, nervous to finally lose his virginity to the girl he has loved forever, lasts approximately 5 seconds in bed with Summer. Next comes an awkward silence before they both get changed and leave. #Accurate.

1. Girls

Most of the sex scenes in Girls are a pretty accurate depiction of what goes down in the sack. Just sayin'.
