Netflix viewers have been left ‘sickened’ by a controversial series that includes graphic scenes.
Fans of the streaming giant are threatening to cancel their subscriptions over the TV drama that’s airing now.
Based on the life of an adult star, it’s sparked a heated debate with viewers due to certain scenes.
A clip of the divisive show was shared, then quickly deleted, on Netflix’s official Instagram account – while online it garnered a lot of negative feedback.
One person wrote: “Now we have p*** on Netflix as well? Canceling the account while we speak, my kids can’t see this.”
Another agreed: “Isn’t this inappropriate for a platform where KIDS FOLLOW YOU?!”
“Are we just making p*** mainstream now? It’s pretty sickening that there is no warning on explicit content like this,” a third viewer questioned. “Yet women who post a picture breastfeeding are flagged. This should be a separate category on Netflix if you want to put stuff like this out.”
“I’m not sure I like the direction Netflix is going,” a further concerned fan opined.
Somebody else penned: “It’s really sad that this is accepted in modern culture. The hyper-s**ualisation of our society and generation is depressing and degrading to the value of both genders.”
The platform describes the show, inspired by true events, as ‘the story of how Rocco Siffredi escaped a humble life and emerged as the world’s greatest p*** star.’
In its official synopsis for the show, IMDb adds: “Siffredi’s family, his origins, his relationship, and the context that led him to embark on his path in p****graphy and accept that the demon in his body is compatible with love.”
The seven-part series, called Supers**, stars Alessandro Borghi as Siffredi, who starred in over 1,500 X-rated films.
Francesca Manieri, the filmmaker behind the series, tells The Independent: “My goal was to put men in front of themselves.
“This is what we call the phallocentric system, the system in which the d*** is the centrum of the thought before everything.
“So what can you do right now, 2024, to understand the relationship between men and women? And how can men put themselves in front of the image of their symbolic d*** and try to deconstruct all of this?”
Despite the controversy, the film has generated some positive reviews from critics.
Rohan Naahar writes for the Indian Times: “Borghi is endlessly watchable, even when the show threatens to fly off the rails. He gives Siffredi, who could’ve very easily come across as a detestable man, a sense of vulnerability.
“It also helps that the character – at least the version of him created for the show – is always the first to point out his flaws. Self-awareness goes a long way in earning the audience’s sympathies because there is no bigger turn-off than watching a loose cannon fire away, without having any sense of the damage they’re causing.”
Aramide Tinubu echoes in Variety: “Supers** isn’t just an examination of one man’s life and career but a look at the lives people create, however unconventional when they dare to move through the world as their most authentic selves.”

Kaley Cuoco Claims Sex Scenes With Her Ex Were Added To Big Bang Theory ‘To Mess With Her
The Big Bang Theory creator responds to Kaley Cuoco’s claim that he added s** scenes with her ex ‘to mess with her.’
The creator of The Big Bang Theory, Chuck Lorre, has responded to Cuoco’s past comments suggesting that additional intimate scenes were written for her and co-star Johnny Galecki after their real-life breakup.
Cuoco, who portrayed Penny in the hit sitcom, once speculated that these scenes were intentionally added to make things more uncomfortable for her and Galecki, with whom she had a two-year relationship.
Cuoco and Galecki, who played an on-screen couple throughout the series, dated from 2008 to 2010.
Despite their breakup, they maintained a professional and friendly relationship on set.
However, Cuoco noted an increase in the number of romantic scenes between their characters post-breakup.
Speaking on The Armchair Expert podcast in 2020, Cuoco recalled: “When we broke up, obviously it was a little sensitive for a minute, but I remember those weeks that Chuck [Lorre, the show’s creator] had written these episodes where all of a sudden our characters were like sleeping together every other second.”
She further speculated: “Johnny and I talk about it and I think he did that on purpose — just to f**k with us. If I was with [Chuck Lorre now], I would ask him, because that came out of nowhere. All of a sudden these characters were all up on each other.”
Lorre, however, addressed these claims in The Big Bang Theory: The Definitive, Inside Story, a book by Jessica Radloff that provides an in-depth look at the show.
Addressing Cuoco’s suspicions, Lorre stated: “No. Not at all. Making a good show has no room for f**king with anybody.”
He continued: “There’s no, ‘Let’s mess with Kaley and Johnny.’ The goal was to make a great show and make every minute of every episode count. And that was the only goal.”
The veteran producer further explained that there was no room for personal agendas when making a television show of such magnitude.
“We don’t have that kind of freedom to risk a TV series that you put your heart and soul into to mess with somebody’s head. No,” he said.
Lorre also dismissed the idea that production decisions were made to personally affect Cuoco and Galecki, adding humor to the situation:
“I think that’s charming that they think we had the mental capacity to mess with them. Penny and Leonard having difficulty sustaining a relationship was one of the reasons to keep watching – to see if they could make it. You were rooting for them to find happiness.”
Johnny Galecki also addressed Lorre’s remarks in the book, reflecting on their past assumptions.
He admitted: “I guess that was pretty egotistical of us to think that. [Laughs]. We were reading into things a little too much. I’m going to sleep a little easier tonight.”

Sandra Bullock Makes X-Rated Confession After Racy Scene With Ryan Reynolds
Sandra Bullock made an X-rated confession after filming a popular noughties’ movie with fellow actor Ryan Reynolds.
The A-lister starred in a 2009 rom-com that follows no-nonsense New York editor Margaret (played by Bullock) as she convinces her assistant (Reynolds) to marry her in return for a promotion so she can stay in the country.
As usually goes with rom-coms, the pair falls for one another.
But as the characters build up to their professions of love, they find themselves in a heated scene together.
In a recent interview, Bullock opened up about filming the memorable moment.
If you’ve watched The Proposal, you’ll probably remember the one scene in which the characters end up completely naked together.
It happens when Bullock’s character hops out of the shower and looks for a towel.
To the amusement of the viewers, she bumps into Reynolds, and they collide to the floor – all without any clothes on.
Although this may sound like an incredibly awkward scene to film, Bullock has since revealed that this wasn’t the case.
In an interview with Parade Magazine, the Miss Congeniality star revealed that they ‘didn’t care.’
She explained: “You have things covering up your essential parts, but they get unstuck. And oddly enough, we didn’t care because we were so tired.
“Ann was like, ‘Sandra, your v**ina is hanging out. Cover it up.’ I’m like, ‘Oh, sorry, sorry.’”
But it didn’t end there.
Bullock’s nipple was also exposed, which prompted reactions from crew members.
“And the crew would be like, ‘Jeez, her nipple is showing,’” the actress recounted. “They weren’t titillated, they were unhappy because they knew we had to retake the shot.”
She added: “They’re like, ‘We want to go to lunch. Cover the nip.’ So that’s pretty much how the day went.”
Reynolds also suffered from a mishap on set.
During an appearance on the About Last Night podcast, Bullock revealed that Reynolds accidentally flashed the closed set, which was made up of director Anne Fletcher and several key crew members for the scene.
“Ryan and I have these flesh-colored things stuck to our privates; my hair is strategically over the nipples and Ryan‘s little – not little, at all!” Bullock said, describing the scene.
Backtracking on her blunder, she added: “It’s just whatever’s there, and I don’t know because I didn’t see it – I didn’t look!”
The star added Reynolds was a good sport about it, describing him as ‘just so cool’ and ‘absolutely unflappable.’
