Sex scenes

Some of the strongest moments of sex in The Four Seasons include:

  • In the second to last episode, a woman receives oral sex from a nude man under a duvet cover. We only see her head and see the man’s full backside for a couple seconds as he runs out of the room.
  • A group of men begin kissing and stripping, seemingly with the intention to have group sex, however it is interrupted before sex occurs.
  • In the last few seconds of episode 4, a group of friends accidentally turn the television on to a porn scene. Though it is only shown for a couple seconds, it is very graphic, showing full nudity, sex, and loud moaning.

There are a lot of sex-related jokes and humorous scenes in the series, including when porn pops up on someone's television, and references to things like blowjobs and masturbation.
