Actually it sorta already is, what with the mysterious people appearing and disappearing.

So does that mean that Sex House will become lovely and piss everyone off in a few seasons?

How often are Sex House episodes coming out, and when was it revealed that they only got food for having sex? I just watched the four episodes yesterday but didn't remember this.

Isn't it obvious? They're talking about being super hungry and how the only food they had to start with has gone bad. The only time they've gotten new food was the big basket they received after Frank and Erin had sex.

Plus at the start of the second episode, when everyone's raiding the gift basket Tara says "way to go, you got us food!". They never actually say it's food-for-sex, it's just heavily implied.

I know quite a few people think this series is boring, but I loved this one at least. The best part about it is, as you say, the metronome: notice that they're still doing the ostentatiously unprofessional mid-sentence jump cuts like he's clumsily editing out his uhs and pauses, but the metronome keeps its stride! I don't know why that struck me but it did.

Between that and his comment on being asexual and just flat out interrupting Frank when he's trying to say something sincere the character definitely comes across as appropriately amoral and psychopathic for hosting Sex House.

And the banana barfing scene was amazingly uncomfortable.

Wow, them actually sticking up for Alex when the Host started insulting her was actually really heartwarming to me. I know a lot of people were expecting horrible things to happen to her, but the idea of the cast actually still recognizing she's a person with feelings no matter how broken she acts is really sweet.

Oh jesus. Frank making a break for it and there being security guards right at the door got me.

And I think with the doctor's segment we can dismiss that this is hell or an alien mothership. Which is honestly all the scarier because that means we're the monsters.

I wonder if that wasn't a big missed opportunity to have Frank be gone for awhile then show up reprogrammed or something. Although I fully admit that's not a very original idea.

I didn't read the Frank confession as sincere at all, I read it as another in a long line of his cheap and dishonest self-justifications for being a terrible excuse for a human being.

It's why everyone, from Erin to Jay, was visibly uncomfortable as he was confessing.

They missed a chance for him to shove the pregnant Erin out of the way when he made a break for it. At this point, it wouldn't even be shocking.

Yeah this show does character arcs really well. Erin had hit the point where staring at the camera and ing was only gonna give diminishing returns from then on so turning her into Apathy the Human Being was pretty smart, as was pushing Alex closer and closer to a breakdown and/or Tara into a genuinely smart, caring person.

The thing that makes Frank so great is that he's really torn up over what he did. He's trying to rationalize it away, but it's obvious that he doesn't really believe it, that he knows he did something really bad and he's just trying to not think about it.

Hmmm well google says it would take about 40 bananas eaten in rapid succession without vomiting so I'd rate that as dubious.

You do have to remember the bananas are ostensibly the only food available for the foreseeable future so I could see someone, possibly Frank, building up a dangerously high level of potassium in their body over the next couple of days.

ed: I mean, it's unlikely but it'd be an interesting payoff to the "only bananas available" plot point.
