I have a general interest question.

HOW do they make the sex on HBO and Showtime look SO REAL?

They're ACTORS, ACTING. Other networks have actors, acting.

Plus, it doesn't look "real." Look at reality, and then look at movie stars. Walk through a mall and look at people. Then turn on the tv and look at people. Listen to a typical conversation in real life. Then listen to a conversation on tv. Nobody says "um" or "uh" on tv or in the movies. Everyone on screen looks awesome. I've never watched real people having real sex, but I can guarantee that it wouldn't look anything like what's on HBO. Even regular people making a video of themselves are going to act differently than if there was no camera there. So just having a camera there will make it not real. I think it's quantum mechanics that says you can't observe anything without changing it.
