Screenwise Verdict

Let's be crystal clear: this is not a show for families, teens, or anyone looking for wholesome entertainment. Supersex is an adults-only biographical drama about a famous porn star, and it contains exactly what you'd expect—extensive graphic sexual content.

For the Screenwise parent audience, this scores dismally because it has zero applicability to kids or family viewing. The 75% critic score suggests it's competently made, but that doesn't change what it is.

If you're an adult who enjoys biographical dramas and aren't squeamish about explicit content, you might find it interesting. But this is a hard pass for anyone looking for family-appropriate content or even content suitable for older teens. Keep this one locked behind your Netflix profile with a PIN.

Age Fit

This is strictly 18+ content with no educational or developmental value for minors. It's for adults who are specifically interested in biographical dramas about controversial figures in the adult entertainment industry.

WISE Breakdown

Wholesome

This is a biographical series about a porn star's life, filled with explicit sexual content. It models virtually nothing in terms of kindness, cooperation, or emotionally healthy relationships—the subject matter is inherently about the adult film industry. Not wholesome by any reasonable family-media standard.

Imaginative

As a biographical drama, it takes a creative approach to telling Rocco Siffredi's life story with narrative framing and production value. However, it's not particularly original—biopics of controversial figures are common, and there's no invitation for viewer creativity or exploration. Moderately imaginative in execution but not groundbreaking.

Safe

This show is explicitly about pornography and contains extensive graphic sexual content, full nudity, and adult themes throughout. Common Sense Media rates it 17+. This is the opposite of safe content for families or children—it's designed for mature adults only and would be entirely inappropriate for anyone under 18 to stumble upon.

Enriching

There's potential value in exploring how someone navigates a controversial industry, questions of identity, and the human story behind a public persona. The 75% RT critic score suggests some artistic merit. However, the subject matter limits broader enrichment—it's more voyeuristic than deeply insightful, and the entertainment value comes primarily from shock and titillation rather than meaningful growth.

⚠

What to Watch For

Extensive graphic sexual content and full nudity throughout—this is a show ABOUT pornography, so expect exactly that
Absolutely not appropriate for anyone under 18, full stop
Even for adults, this is niche content that many will find gratuitous or uncomfortable
The 6.2 IMDb rating suggests it's not exactly prestige TV—more curiosity watch than must-see drama

Conversation Starters

"This isn't for kids, but if you're watching with a partner: What do you think drives someone to choose this career path?"
"How does the series handle the exploitation and darker sides of the industry versus glamorizing it?"
"Does knowing it's 'inspired by true events' change how you view the portrayal?"
