The entertainment show "Sex’n‘ Death" is low-life TV’s finest hour. Host Ben Black makes good on all the cliches. No taboo is left unturned and only ratings count. He torments them all: the viewers, the team and the producer who, spicily enough, is his ex-wife. His only problems are insomnia, the tabloid stories being spread around by his ex-lover and the ratings wars being plotted against him by his competitors. Witty-wicked British humor ending in a cataclysmic showdown, as always walking the fine line to tastelessness. In contrast to this, "Big Brother" is just babysitting.
