Nude Celebs: Laila Odom - Essentially an urban Sex and the City but with a lot more "street" than "city," Zane's Sex Chronicles is a curio of late-night cable entertainment. The leads can, for the most part, deliver their lines convincingly. The production value - though a bit too gauzy - is quite good. And the entire vibe of each episode is sexy, but not exploitative. What results is a show with actual characters moving through their (albeit sexy) lives, all woven together by friendship and the writings of a sex-columnist named "Zane" who just happens to be one of the ladies in this group of gals. The one big knock on the show is that the leads are so attractive that their scant nude scenes become frustrating for regular viewers that want the goods, a problem the producers seem to laughably address by bringing Zane's columns to the screen with softcore/hardcore talent that isn't bashful about dropping their kit and riding off into the sunset. The quick bits of harder softcore make the show feel a bit unsure of what direction it wants to go in, but overall this is a decent show for couples that aren't interested in porn, but that might want to watch something a little saucy.
In Room 69, the focus is definitely on more oral matters for the ladies comprising the Zane's clique, as each of them put their mouth where there money is after taking a class on how to heighten pleasure in the bedroom. In the meantime, Zane's writings spill a tale about that most lovely of mutual pleasuring techniques, the good old promised land of the 69 which is acted out by porn star Marie Luv. While the rest of the regular cast only allude to the subject matter, Luv seems pretty OK with acting out what's got to be one of the biggest rarities in softcore erotica: mutual oral sex! Still, you get some pretty hot moments from Patrice Fisher (who has a quick nude love scene), Laila Odom, who has a quick non-nude love scene), and Christina DeRosa who puts her newly learned skills to the test on a loan officer. Maya Gilbert, oddly, seems tame in this episode, her character too insecure and frustrated with her husband than to do more than curse him out while in her night-time lingerie.
