The Nipple Talk (2024)

adventures in sex & love (need season 2!)

Overall: this is a sex positive series that focused on the sex and love lives of 3 main characters. I gave it a rating boost to 10 because it discussed several lesser talked about topics in a realistic way. Know that this is not a tragic series, although there are some sad parts, it celebrates love, life and friendship. 10 episodes about 30 minutes each. Aired on GagagOOLala https://www.gagaoolala.com/en/videos/4915/the-nipple-talk-2024

Content Warnings: gaslighting, discrimination, cyberbullying, slap, manhandling, non con kiss

What I Like
- the friend group and how they supported each other, even if they messed up they had good intentions and apologized
- realistic scenarios, depicted several topics that aren't shown very often in media
- MAMA* and the styling
- a character had a spine and knew what he wanted/what his deal breakers were
- showed the difference between open relationships and cheating
- good foreshadowing with the flowers
- character growth
- supportive sibling
- sweet/caring moments
- depictions of intimacy
- production value (especially enjoyed the music)

Room For Improvement
- not a fan of voice overs
- *I wish MAMA was actually the 4th main character and he had his own plot line instead of just an advisor and showing his brief steamy flashbacks
- the cliffhanger ending for 1 protagonist
- (neutral) on the friend letting her go with him when she was extremely drunk

Realistic Storylines

This is perfection! I had been craving realistic characters and storylines and this gave me EVERYTHING! I absolutely love it! As a straight cisgender woman in a very queer world in my everyday life I found all my friends and myself watching this and it was amazing. I really hope I can help some of my friends with the many nuggets of wisdom from MAMA too. Guys watch this and show it to your friends, it’s beautiful ❤️
Amazing writing, great acting, so many serious issues brought up beautifully, can’t wait to see where it’s going with the future seasons !!! LOOOOOOOOVE 🫶🏽

What’s Not to Love!!!!

Warning: Do not watch this if you are offended by nudity.

This was an incredible series. It’s always wonderful to watch a mature series that involved adults. I was scared to watch this at first because a series that centers around sex can go very wrong, really quickly. Thankfully this series had the right mixture of mature content, comedy, drama, and heartwarming moments. I loved getting to know the main characters and their storyline had a good progression throughout the series. I may not have liked all of the characters (I have my favorites), but they were well written. The best part was the friendship dynamic between the main characters. They didn’t always get alone, but they were always supportive of each other. The cast was wonderful and did a great job portraying their characters. This had great music and cinematography.

Random Notes:

It’s not a major one, but there is a cliffhanger in the last scene. It gives a hint of the possibility for a second season which I would love to see.

My only complaint is the English subtitle timing is too quick on GagaOOLala.

Don't be fooled!

I think some people thought this show is all about sex because of the title, but it's way more than that. I mean, yes there are NC scenes but it's deeper than that

Some of the scenes are extremely touching, some are really funny, some are simply lighthearted. It's as the show describes, "No label, no tag, just love is the key spirit in this show."

I really love how there's a straight, gay, lesbian in the show- what a diverse representation. Kudos to the team in charge of Mama's costume. I love each one of them- so sassy! I also love the creative name of the cocktails and how pretty they look

I'm impressed by the quality of this Taiwan drama- especially how they're delivering positive messages in such a funny and creative way. It has amazing lesson on self-love and touches on issues around LGBTQ in a very tasteful manner.

I love the character development of the casts, especially Leslie. Their friendship gives off Sex in the City vibe.

S2? Yes please!
