Opinions are divided when it comes to Sexercise, but I have found little similarities with opinions- for the men, it was to cliché and not
their cup of tea but the women were all for this show and quite entertained.
I suppose it would almost be like taking a male to Legally
Blonde, it just rarely happens! I loved this show and the cliché scenes made
for many giggles on my behalf.
The other half however sat there throughout not very
impressed at all… I did catch him laugh twice all the while I think I popped 4
abs just from laughing, maybe he was tired at least that is what he put it down to.
I rarely heard a male laugh come from the audience and
instead it was the women cracking up and giggling away cheekily.
Sexercise is about a couple who loose each other along the
way and with all life’s hurdles they just don’t have the time for each other. Juggling between daily tasks like the gym,
football, the kids, childcare runs and of course work they don’t have the
closeness they used to have and seek relationship counselling from a lady who
also turns out to be a porn star!
You also get an insight into the lives of Joe (Lyall Brooks)
and Sam (Nicole Melloy) friends who at times become the main characters and
even bring some not so cliché laughs to the table.
This is where the sex comes into play and they turn exercise
into fun with adding sex in there with their Sexercise manual. Trying all
positions from position one to seventy one.
Joe makes the huge mistake of accidently uploading a video
on a porn site of Sam and himself perfoming some positions in the Sexercise
manual… Things go up shit creek and Sam kicks him out.
Only to realise it was a big mistake and uploading this
video could have been the best mistake of their lives, where they go on to
create a website- sexercise.com
I would almost suggest leaving the other half at home for
this show and making it a girls only date night, after all I know I wouldn’t invite
my other half to come and watch 50 Shades of Grey!

It was the opening night and the show was followed by an
after party but we were much too tired and the other half had to work in the morning
so we just decided to skip the party and head home, where we crashed out very
quickly- all that laughing wore me out!
