   GET IT ON - A Brief History of Sex in Music

GET IT ON - A Brief History of Sex in Music
Since the 1950’s, when the rhythm of rock ‘n’ roll first tapped into the unbridled teenage libido of the baby boomer generation, music has been the our culture’s most openly sexual medium.

Rooted in rebellion, pop music has become the only socially acceptable place to experiment with extreme gender roles, and alternative forms of sexuality. In an attempt to thrill and shock, pop stars such as Elvis Presley, David Bowie and Patti Smith have pushed the limits of what our culture finds acceptable, and changed history in the process.

This SexTV special, “Get It On – A Brief History of Sex in Music” traces the history of pop music from the raw sexual braggadocio of the Blues, to the explicit depictions of sexual desire in contemporary music videos.

From the time when Elvis’ shaking pelvis caused a widespread panic, to the present day when scantily clad porn stars make appearances with A-list stars, this SexTV special looks at the music that has shaken our sexual foundations.

   CELEBRITY SEX SCANDALS

CELEBRITY SEX SCANDALS
ORIGINAL BROADCAST: FEBRUARY 9, 2005 (CITYTV)

Celebrities have become the modern version of Greek gods. Like the gods of Mount Olympus we follow their lives; and the stories we tell about them become stories about ourselves, and like the ancient Greek Gods, our modern celebrities seem to have unlimited libidos.

This SexTV Special, “Scandal!” will trace the arc from a time when appearing “loose” would have ruined your career to a time when one’s excessive sex life can actually make your career.

From Woody Allen to Rob Lowe and Paris Hilton, “Scandal!” chronicles how celebrity sex scandals have evolved to reflect a society’s attitude and anxieties about sexuality and gender.



   SEXUAL UTOPIAS

SEXUAL UTOPIAS
People have always dreamt of creating idealized worlds, or utopias, where we can live out our deepest desires in a care free, pleasure-filled world reminiscent of the Garden of Eden.

For most of us, these utopias only remain a dream - but a small number of brave, driven and arguably crazy souls have attempted to put their utopian visions into practice.

Utopian communities have existed throughout history, and the role of sexuality looms large in their utopian vision. Some utopias strive to control sex, demanding that their members commit to a life of celibacy, others aim for a life of sexual indulgence freed from gratuitous repression. Most attempt to radically revise sexual relationships and gender roles in order to deal with the socially disruptive force of sexuality.

This SexTV special, “Utopia: Love& Sex in a Perfect World” traces the history of Utopian thought, and presents the people and groups who, throughout the ages, set out to create idealized sexual worlds.

From the 19th century “free-love” Oneida community, to the celibate Buddhist monasteries, this SexTV special offers a look at fascinating utopian social models that ultimately make us reflect about own sexual choices and question our social beliefs.



   GAY HOLLYWOOD

GAY HOLLYWOOD
Hollywood is run on homosexual fuel; the entertainment editors of the magazines, the producers of the big budget blockbusters, the set designers and stylists, and most of all, the actors and actresses. But gay actors still can’t be outwardly gay. If they come out at risk of ruining their career (see Rupert Everett). We say we’ve made progress (with shows like Ellen and Queer Eye) but the fact remains that all A-list celebrities, or those who wish to become A-List celebrities, remain closeted. In the 1920’s & 1930’s Hollywood was one of the most gay friendly cities in the world. That all changed in 1933 and has remained scandal wracked to this day.

Branding Sex is a one hour documentary special that looks at why sexual stereotypes in media prevail even as society seemingly becomes more egalitarian. It will also examine the effect that this has on our relationships with each other.
