Sex alert! TNT's 'Claws' tops list for the most number of graphic sex scenes EVER on cable TV

One would think that the cable TV networks tend to limit themselves when it comes to graphic sex scenes but the same cannot be said for Claws.

TNT is not afraid to show sex scenes on the cable network and they have proved it once again with their television series 'Claws'. The show is considered to have the most number of graphic sex scenes that have been displayed on the television screen, as reported by Decider. The show wastes no time in jumping into the steamy scenes as the first episode of season one has four sex scenes itself. Theshow first premiered on TNT on June 11, 2017, and seeing the response that it got, a second season of the show was ordered. On July 12, 2017, TNT renewed the series for a second season, which premiered on June 10, 2018. 

The show revolves around five manicurists at the Nail Artisan salon of Manatee County, Florida when they decide to try their hands at a traditionally male world of organized crime. It is then that they begin laundering money for a neighboring pain clinic. However, there is a lot more emotion that has been attached to the plot of the show. Focusing on how friendships, struggles, and empowerment take over the life of these women, the show depicts what these women have to overcome, personally and professionally. 

At the same time, it shows how the women of all sizes express their sexual orientation and needs. The first sex scene of this season has Desna (Niecy Nash) and Roller (Jack Kesy) get it on in the back room at the salon. Throughout this, we see Ann (Judy Reyes) guarding the store. While the two, Desna and Roller, had intended to discuss their business, they end up getting into other business.

However, this is not the only thing that a viewer gets to take from this episode. The first episode consists of a vibrator, a strip club scene which is surrounded by people using drugs, and a man in bondage wear.  Despite being a tad bit different from the sex scenes one would expect to see on television cable channels it looks like TNT is not holding themselves back from this show. To add more to this, there is a female on female scene and a lot of orgasms! 

Meanwhile, from doggie style to cowgirl, the show will make you see everything that you probably did not before on the television. While people might think that the show is all about sex, there is a lot more to it than what meets the eye. The show gives an insight into how women sometimes use sex to convince people, to hurt people, and to please people and let's not forget, to please themselves. 

With a lot of girl drama which comes along with girl power, the show is just what cable TV needs. On July 2, 2018, TNT renewed the series for a third season. While the show's release date is yet to be set, it is expected that the show will return in June next year as the previous two seasons also released in the same month.
