At times, sex between two fictional characters can be so hot that you forget you’re watching TV. Until — boom! — the show cuts to commercial and you’re suddenly staring down a Cialis commercial. Maybe you get angry at your significant other for not being Bill Compton. Or maybe you pretend that he’s Jax Teller and jump his bones right then and there.
Either way, flip through these too-hot-to-handle TV moments and get your blood running!
And maybe share them with your significant other to give them a little nudge in the right direction, if you know what I mean…
Homeland: Carrie and Brody in the Cabin
She is a bipolar, ass-kicking CIA agent. He is a Sergeant-turned-traitor-turned-Congressman-turned-good guy. They’re both caught between who they are and who they’re supposed to be. How could their cabin sex not be hot and scandalous?
Dexter: Dexter and Rita's First Time
Dexter Morgan is your typical serial killer with morals. Despite his fondness for certain, ahem, activities, his killer instinct also drives him to protect the people he loves. There is something so sexy about seeing Dexter finally open himself up to Rita.
The OC: Marissa Cooper and Alex Kelly...everywhere!
We always thought that Marissa might take a dive into the lady pool and our instincts were right. Lesbihonest, who wouldn’t want to jump Olivia Wilde’s (aka Alex) bones? Especially after our poor Marissa was having such bad luck with boys. Remember her high school boyfriend, Luke, sleeping with her mom?! Yeah, we totally get it Coop.
The OC: Marissa Cooper and Volcheck in his Trailer
Sure, Volcheck was a terrible guy and that it was ultimately his fault that Marissa ran her car off the road and died. But his rock hard body slamming hers against the wall of his trailer? That was the sexiest “this is so wrong” sex ever. Sorry not sorry, Ryan Atwood.
Sons of Anarchy: Jax Teller and Tara Knowles in the Bathroom
Jax is a leather-wearing, Harley Davidson-riding biker, next in line to take over the SOA motorcycle gang. Tara is a sweet, smart doctor with a good head on her shoulders. But even good girls can turn a li'l naughty… as evidenced by Tara having hot bathroom sex with her irresistible bad boy.
Orange is the New Black: Piper Chapman and Alex Vause in the Chapel
Piper knows that Alex is bad for her but bad in all the right ways. Alex allows Piper to release all her deep and darkest desires without thinking about consequences or regrets. So, when Piper pulls Alex into that chapel, we can’t help but experience those feelings along with her!
Shameless: Fiona Gallager and Jimmy/Steve on the Kitchen Counter
Fiona and Jimmy/Steve have a love/hate relationship that drives everyone crazy. Every time he lies or screws up, she just wants him more! Their makeup sex is probably the best on TV… especially their hot kitchen counter sex.
Grey's Anatomy: Meredith Grey and Derek Shepherd in the Exam Room
You don't have to be a doctor to diagnose the chemistry between Grey and Shepherd. In this steamy scene, the ex-couple get so turned on from looking at each other, they have to tear away from their significant others just to do it an exam room!
Mad Men: Betty Draper and the Washing Machine
In midst of a heat wave (literally), Betty Draper indulges in her wildest fantasies by getting off on her washing machine's spin cycle. She fantasies about the door-to-door salesman who just showed up to sell her an air conditioner. For a woman whose husband is the biggest womanizer in town, why can't she get a little down and dirty?
True Blood: Sookie Stackhouse and Bill Compton in Front of the Fireplace
Sookie Stackhouse is just “dying” to meet a vampire. Enter: Tortured soul Bill Compton, whose eyes could burn a hole right through your heart. Bill and Sookie just couldn’t resist each other… and apparently neither could Anna Paquin and Stephen Moyer, who began hooking up in real life too!
True Blood: Sookie Stackhouse and Eric Northman in the Snow
Even if you are Team Bill, you can’t deny how hot Eric and Sookie were in the bedroom. Sookie decided to indulge in her feelings for Eric, and when they drank each other’s blood, they hallucinated sex on a bed of falling snow. Who knew the cold could be so hot?
Outlander: Claire Beauchamp and Jamie Fraser on their Wedding Night
Fans waited 24 years to see these two have sex on the TV screen! Claire and Jamie were born 200 years apart, but still had unbelievably hot sex. Their first time was so intense, it took up an entire episode!
Game of Thrones: Ygritte and Jon Snow in the Cave
What’s steamier than sex in a waterfall cave? Not much. In an effort to find out if Jon Snow has really given up his Night’s Watch vows, Ygritte lures him into a cave and strips. Snow is hesitant but eventually gives into temptation. Why is sleeping with the enemy always so hot?
Game of Thrones: Khaleesi Daenerys Targaryen and Khal Drogo When Khaleesi Takes Control

However, it wasn’t until Daenerys decided it was time to really take control of her relationship that audiences started to fall for this sexy couple. After many lessons from her handmaiden, Khaleesi mounted her horse warrior and we were given one helluva ride!
Sex and the City: Every scene ever with Samantha Jones
Sam Jones is the poster girl for hot sex! In fact, every time she feasts her eyes on a sexy man, they are guaranteed to get it on. Like Samantha, HBO isn't shy about showing off the goods. This makes for some seriously steamy sex scenes.
