Film director and writer James Gunn and his brothers Sean and Brian make pornography interesting: everything great about porn except the sex. It ran with eight episodes on Spike TV from 2008 to 2009.

The series has a male actor alongside a female pornographic actress or model. It also uses humor before the attempted act of sex.


This show contains examples of:

  • Accidental Murder: Nathan Fillion's construction worker character accidentally fatally shoots his boss' wife in the head with a nailgun.
  • Adam Westing: James Gunn played himself in the seventh episode.
  • Creator Cameo: Any of the three brothers make an appearance on each of the episodes.
  • Deconstructive Parody: The entire series is a complete spoof on pornography.
    • The second and third episodes are spoofs of Peanuts.
  • Genre Savvy: It seems like it is porn.
  • Musical Number Annoyance: Joe Fria spends so much of Episode 5 singing a musical number about the sexual acts he'll do to Jenna Haze that Jenna grows bored and leaves.
  • Porn with Plot: A very humorous plot for each episode.
  • Prima Donna Director: James Gunn plays himself as an abusive director in episode 7.
    James Gunn: CAT! What don't you understand about fucking cat, Edward? C-A-T. It's the first word you learn in a fucking book! FUCK ME! God-damn it! And if this guy over here, goatee boy, if you don't quit shifting around, I swear to God, I'm gonna smash your fucking lights! You hear me!?
  • Subverted Trope: The entire point of the series is to present scenarios that are initially played out like in a typical pornographic film, but some unexpected event happened preventing the porn scenes from occurring.
