All 15 Sex Scenes on 'Sense8' Ranked!
Netflix's 'Sense8' ended in 2018 but it forever lives on in our hearts...
Five years after its thrilling 2-hour conclusion, Netflix's one-of-a-kind sci-fi series Sense8 (created by The Wachowski sisters) is still beloved for its enticing plot, a groundbreaking array of LGBTQ+ characters, and of course – those scandalous sex scenes.
In its brief two seasons (and movie special), it racked up more than a handful of steamy moments that get us hot and bothered. So of course, our first thought was to rank them!
As Sun Bak once wisely said, "We exist because of sex. It's not something to be afraid of. It's something to honor, to enjoy."
Based on the situation, the act, and the sentimentality of the moment, we've chosen scenes you can fast forward through all the way up to the ones you might want to savor. Obviously, this is opinion-based, so please don't come for us, but we give detailed reasoning behind each ranking.
So enjoy!
15. E1.4 - Riley's loud and obnoxious friends wake her up
Turn on: It sounds like they're having fun, I guess.
Turn off: When you annoy Riley, you annoy us all. Also, who even are they?
14. E1.2 - Wolfgang hooks up with some rando
Turn on: Lucky girl! Wolfgang has a fair share of his own sex scenes in the series and you can tell he knows how to put it down.
Turn off: It's not with Kala. But Wolfgang does say he's craving Indian food after...
13. E2.1 - Young Sun and Mun relieve stress in the locker room
Turn on: After Sun loses a fight to Mun, the two's pheromones take over in the locker room. Sun takes control of the situation and rides Mun so well that he still hasn't forgotten it years later...
Turn off: It's a flashback. Also the scene feels a bit awkward, but maybe that's just because they're young.
12. E2.4 - Lito gets head from some dead guy
Turn on: Dead guy's hand placement! The composition of the shot! That head thrown back in euphoria! A+ all around.
Turn off: Another flashback. The scene is also interspersed with the dead guy's really sad dad reminiscing about his son. It ends up reading as more comedic than arousing.
11. E2.7 - Sun and Detective Mun's pheromones take over
Turn on: Okay I know this isn't actually a sex scene, BUT LOOK HOW SWEATY THEY ARE. After they get the blood flowing in combat, Sun and Mun's reunion inevitably ended with a passionate kiss. Sun knocking Detective Mun unconscious with a side-kick seconds after this adds to the erotic factor.
11. E2.7 - Sun and Detective Mun's pheromones take over
Turn off: Honestly, they should've hooked up right there in the cemetery.
10. E2.1 - Wolfgang gets it on while Kala watches with horror/intrigue
Turn on: Wolfgang flusters Kala by hooking up with another random girl in front of her and honestly we're just as hot and bothered.
Turn off: It's not Kala. The scene ends up playing more comedic than sexy, especially at the end of the scene when Kala causes her husband to sprain his dick.
9. E2.10 - Lito and Hernando strip while the sun's setting on the beach
Turn on: Once again this is not an actual sex scene (last one, we swear), but this moment of bliss between Lito and Hernando is too beautiful and romantic to skip. We also like to imagine the two men have gritty beach sex when the camera pans away.
Turn off: They should've had gritty beach sex on camera. Also, all that sand in your cracks sounds...unpleasant.
8. E1.9 - Lito blows Hernando in a museum restroom
Turn on: After refusing to come out to the world as gay to protect his career, Lito and Hernando break up for a moment in season 1. In episode nine, Lito reminisces about their first hook up in the bathroom of a museum, and it is...steamy. He goes as far as calling the moment a religious experience, saying "I took him into my mouth like a holy communion." Whew! Is it hot in here or is it just us?
8. E1.9 - Lito blows Hernando in a museum restroom
Turn off: Bathroom floors are not exactly sanitary. And public sex isn't everybody's thing.
7. E2.6 - Kala and Wolfgang FINALLY make sweet sweet love
Turn on: Two seasons of build-up gave us the tender moment between Kala and Wolfgang we were desperate for. After breaking it off with her husband, Kala allows herself to give in to Wolfgang and loses her corporeal virginity to him. They even have sex underwater! I don't exactly know what sensate power allows them to hold their breath for that long, but it sounds hot and looks beautiful, nonetheless.
7. E2.6 - Kala and Wolfgang FINALLY make sweet sweet love
Turn offs: Not exactly a turn-off, but it seems like the actress, Tina Desai, isn't comfortable with on-screen nudity. Obviously, that's her choice, but the scene feels a bit awkward in moments. Otherwise, my perfect angels are perfect.
6. E1.10 - Nomi and Amanita Have Metaphorical Sex
Turn ons: The chemistry between Nomi and Amanita is off the charts and this moonlit scene beneath the Fourth of July stars is no different. The two women get hot and heavy, fireworks go off in the distance, and it's oh-so-romantic.
Turn offs: When they come together, Amanita says, "Now That's What I Call Fireworks." Out loud. Cringe.
5. E2.1 - The return of the orgy
Turn ons: Sense8's Christmas special featured the most sex scenes in one episode of the entire series, including the show's second iconic orgy scene. All eight sensates are included this time and a few of their partners. Let's just take a few moments of appreciation.
5. E2.1 - The return of the orgy
Turn ons: Versatile kings! And who gave Lito the right to look that good?
5. E2.1 - The return of the orgy
Turn ons: We love mood-lighting! This is also the first time Will and Riley hook-up on screen.
5. E2.1 - The return of the orgy
Turn ons: Is that a house in the background? They love their public sex!
5. E2.1 - The return of the orgy
Turn ons: How did they even all fit in there?
5. E2.1 - The return of the orgy
Turn ons: Will's butt.
Turn offs: Nothing, all my angels are perfect.
4. E2.6 - Capheus and Zakia
Turn ons: Capheus gets his first sex scene with pansexual goddess Zakia, and he surely knows how to treat a woman right. Afterwards, he adorably celebrates the event and we even get a full shot of his butt. Thank you, producers.
4. E2.6 - Capheus and Zakia
Turn offs: Why is it so dark? Do they know how to light dark-skinned people?
3. E1.1 - Nomi, Amanita, and a strap-on. Oh my....
Turn ons: Sense8 came out the gate strong in it's first few minutes with this erotic scene between Nomi and Amanita, and they weren't holding back. At all. The moment between the women is intimate, romantic, and when Amanita drops the strap-on on the floor and it's dripping wet...WHEW.
Turn offs: N/A. They are perfect human beings and must be protected at all costs.
2. E1.6 - The orgy that started it all
Turn ons: Where were you when you watched this isonic scene for the first time? For many of us, it was our first time seeing such a brazen display of sexual fluidity. The orgy is one of the longest sex scenes in the series, lasting about five minutes in total by slowly building the moment like foreplay.
2. E1.6 - The orgy that started it all
Turn ons: The corporeal orgy begins when Will is in the gym, and as he leans back to do a sit-up, Lito appears over his head with a lusty kiss.
2. E1.6 - The orgy that started it all
Turn ons: The sensates take turns living vicariously through Lito.
2. E1.6 - The orgy that started it all
Turn ons: They are all perfect and beautiful.
2. E1.6 - The orgy that started it all
Turn ons: And this moment of climax! Lito, how dare you.
Turn offs: [404 error not found]
1. E2.12 - The final orgy
Finale Spoilers Ahead!
Turn ons: If you thought Sense8 couldn't outdo itself, you were wrong. After the build-up of this show-stopping episode, this final orgy is a huge release. The scene is the culmination - or climax if you will - of the entire series. Every single sensate and their lovers take part; yes, that includes Daniela, Hernando, Amanita, Mun, Zakia, and even Rajan! The romance, the music, the lighting, the candles, the story, what more can you ask for?
1. E2.12 - The final orgy
Turn ons: And we have to discuss that kiss between Wolfgang and Rajan. What began as a competitive love triangle ended up one of the sweetest (and hottest) moments I've ever seen. Near-death experiences can really make one rethink their heterosexuality.
1. E2.12 - The final orgy
And it all comes back to that rainbow dildo...
A shook Rajan summed up our sentiments nicely with the last words of the series. "My God, I didn't think such things were possible." Me neither, Rajan. Me neither.
Sense8, you will be missed. <3
