Like they're just there so the show can be on HBO and don't actually have any reason to exist.

It depends on the show? Rome, iirc, was pretty good about having the sex scenes be important for character development and storytelling. The Wire had good reasons, too, but then the scenes go on for a few minutes too long. And the Season 2 (3?) finale was four or five trysts intercut. It went on for like twenty minutes. Sooo awkwaaaaard. I don't think it was necessary for character development that I know precisely what Lt. Daniels' preferred rhythm is. And of course I'm watching the series with my brother, so it's super awkward.



The silhouette thing is probably because of ratings regulations? Like, the ~shadow of a nipple is easy R territory, but a full 3D view would be NC-17.
