Top sex scenes on TV: From 'GOT' and 'Outlander' and 'Shadowhunters', here are the steamy couplings that made us sweat

Sex always sells, and there is no doubt that a good sex scene leaves both the audience and the critic immensely satisfied
UPDATED MAR 26, 2019

It takes a lot more than seducing dialogue to set the mood and execute a well-defined sex scene. While most times the concentration is on the setting of the scene, aspects such as fitting the scene into the plot and letting the characters (not the actors) perform it, should be considered when determining good sex scenes.

Over the years, the execution of the act of having sex has tremendously revolutionized on screen. With the audience becoming more familiar and comfortable (exceptions are always there) with watching such intimate acts being exclusively carried on screen, filmmakers have tried out every possible way to make the only monotonous act of human behavior look interesting.
