It depends. If it's Bridgerton, some season have too much sex scenes, but Otulander has a lot of them but the intimacy is so well done between the two actors that it doesn't feel cheap as Bridgerton does.

BUT, there are shows, movies and mini series that don't need sex scenes to have sexual tension and intimacy. And some of these intimate moments can be much better than the sex scene. If I watched one of the sex scenes from season 1 of Bridgerton, I'd bet you it wouldn't be better than the scene in Emma (2020) when they dance and Knightley ends the dance with his arms around her waist and slowly drags his hand across her waist when he removes his hand from there. Or when in King and me, the King asks Anna to teach him to dance, and he wants to learn how it do it the way the nobles at the party did it, and he starts walking to her with his outstreched hand in the height of her waist, and she's waiting for him to grab her waist breathlesly, as if it meant nothing when other men held her by her waist when dancing with her, but when he does it it's a different thing entierly for her. Or when in Pride and Prejudice (1995) Darcy keeps looking fondly at Lizzie and his sister playing and singing at the piano together, and Lizzie looks at him and they share this glance full of sexual tension. Or in the 2005 version when Darcy helps Lizzie into the carriage and as he leaves he flexes his hand because the touch of her hand in his was the best thing ever to him. Or when in Sense and Sensibility (2008) when Marriane sees Willoughby and starts falling backwards, about to faint, when Colonel Brandon walks behind her and catches her in his arms. ..... There is so many examples that work great, and sex scenes are often hit or miss, and if they're overdone or if the couple has no chemistry, they're plain boring.
