    8/10
    it is scientifically based, very informative.
    for people who don't have biological background, they may find this show to be boring, because it doesn't have lots of sexual images.

    it has given quite a few science research results, which were unknown to me.

    however, this show only talked about sexual attractions between opposite sex. it didn't mention anything about homosexual attraction which could make this show more complete.

    overall, i enjoyed watching it.

    and for fans of parker young, you will see him in a few scenes wearing only a pair of tight black trunk.
