Kimberly is trying to figure out how to pay for Essex without her scholarship. Bela is trying to start a new humor magazine. Leighton is trying to come out of the closet. Whitney is trying to find something to do after soccer season.
And they're all still dealing with the fallout of turning in Theta House for its cheating ring; the fact that they're in Vermont and it's about to get really cold out; and a "climate refugee" next-door neighbor with many abs and a performatively loud sex life.
The Sex Lives of College Girls streams via HBO Max in the U.S., premiering two episodes a week through December 15th, 2022.

I really enjoyed this show, binging through seasons 1 and 2 quite quickly. The amount of sex they get is *maybe* a bit unrealistic, but it's a fun romp through college through the eyes of 4 roommates. The writing is great, and it feels very original, yet I get a small touch of nostalgia for my college days while watching it.

I liked the first and second seasons fine but Renée Rapp reminds me SO MUCH of Busy Philipps in Dawson's Creek that I have to correct my brain every time she comes on screen.
I do find that the show is pretty shallow for what it's trying to be but it's probably the sitcom length that makes it that way. It also has a weird tendency of ending scenes with some big thing being revealed and then switching to another scene without showing the reactions of the people involved and lots and lots of filler scenes.
Between this and Never Have I Ever, the latter is the Mindy Kaling vehicle I much prefer. As a Canadian who grew up in Surrey BC, a major Desi population centre in Canada, it tickles me the Desi actress in both of Kaling's shows that take place in the US is Canadian - both are from Greater Toronto. Both Maitreyi Ramakrishnan (Devi, Never Have I Ever) and Amrit Kaur (Bela, The Sex Lives of College Girls) are also hilarious and need to be given more work now, please!
