  • The executive producer of the hilarious FX animated spy series Archer dishes on that Season 6 finale, bouncing boobs, the Krieger reveal, and a candidate for Archer’s father. He told Daily Beast, “Us getting away with the amount of sex we got away with in that episode where Archer is having sex with Lana from behind, and Lana’s breasts are jiggling all over, was great.”

  • What kind of people are sex workers? In Australia, hundreds of them are telling the world about themselves using social media. “College student. Aspiring lawyer. Activist.

  • The recent “revelation” by Playboy that its famous mansion was underlaid by tunnels to celebrity homes, has proven to be a hoax. The sketchiest thing about this is that the false info (PR?) was in the news media before April 1st (it was – and still is – a straight feature on Playboy.com on March 30). We have to ask: When is a brand’s April Fools’ Day prank just a lie?

  • Rutgers neuroscientist Barry Komisaruk, working with legendary retired sex researcher Beverly Whipple, has spent decades asking men and women to lie down in an fMRI machine and bring themselves to orgasm. By the time you actually experience an orgasm, “more than 30 major brain systems are activated,” Komisaruk says. “It’s not a local, discrete event. There’s no ‘orgasm center.’ It’s everywhere.”

  • Many “Scandal” fans wonder if President Fitzgerald Grant and Olivia Pope will rekindle their affair this season. “Fitz has not had sex for a long time,” he said on today’s The Ellen DeGeneres Show, laughing. “That’s all I’m saying. It’s a problem.”

  • The creator of the 1999 BBC series Queer As Folk has made three new TV series about gay men and women — and two of them are coming to the U.S. later this month. They have the conspicuous names of Cucumber, Banana and Tofu. Russell T. Davies says the titles came from a study he read from a scientific institute in Switzerland that investigated men’s sexuality.

  • Four Joliet teenagers were charged with child pornography after a group sex video was posted to Twitter. The three males – ages 14, 15 and 16 – and one female, 15, all attend Joliet Central High School. They were arrested after the girl’s mother saw the video and called police. The sex was consensual, according to the Joliet police chief, but distributing it online is considered child pornography.
