Guys,
Masters of Sex is back and I just got around to seeing the Season 2 debut episode... After binge watching it a couple of months ago, I kinda settled into the episode not really thinking about the characters of the show and where the characters left off...
All in all, I thought the episode was pretty good. The episode sorta set out a number of story lines that should make for a pretty interesting season.
Let me quickly say that I'm very stoked to see that Bill Masters has gained employment again and it looks like he will resume his "study" at a new hospital. He went about doing this in a clumsy way, but it looks like he'll be bring Virginia into the fold in the next episode or so.
Virginia's character, in my opinion - is the most important character of the show... this episode however did a great job of shifting the weight around.
Example: Bill Masters, sorta seemed 2 dimensional to me. He loves his work and he loves fucking Virginia. He seem's to have gotten better at sex because of sleeping with Virginia - but he isn't exactly taking these lessons home to impress Mrs. Masters.
I the debut episode, we got to see him lash out at his Ohio mother and pretty much run away with shitty father of the year award.
Which is saying a lot, given that Barton Scully, the older mentor who is seeking electro-shock therapy to cure his homosexual ways... decided to attempt suicide at home when his 20 year old daughter came in for a visit.
I was pretty bored with the development of his character last year, but I've kinda come around full circle on him...
Virginia didn't seem to get a lot of love in my recap, but she did an amazing job of reprising her amazingness on this episode by doing some incredible supporting actress work throughout the episode.
Looking incredibly forward to season 2
