Netflix users are likening a new series to 'pornography' after being shocked by the steamy scenes.
Accessing pornography requires Brits to produce their passport as the porn police clamp down on underage usage, as per the law implemented in the UK in July 2025 which means porn sites are obligated to ask for age verification. But what if that “porn” was on websites that don’t yet demand it?
Currently streaming on Prime Video, the romantic drama series, Off Campus, has had people talking, and may have just provided some horny viewers with an alternative platform to indulge in their sexual consumption.
The saucy series, which premiered on Prime last week, has drawn considerable attention for its graphic scenes, despite only being given a 15 age rating.
The show follows characters Hannah Wells and Garrett Graham, whose pretend relationship to make another man jealous slowly develops into a genuine romance after the two unexpectedly fall for each other.
Yet, it isn’t the premise that has got fans feeling the heat, but rather the show’s liberality around sex.
The eight-episode series, which has been renewed for a second season, has numerous sex scenes that range from relatively tame to intense coital encounters.
Viewers have been vocal about their surprise around just how sexually-charged the show has been, with one X user saying: “Watching a series called “Off campus” on Prime and it feels like I’m watching porn legally.”
Another quipped: “Watched first 6 episodes of off campus felt like I'm watching Porn with a good story.”
Admittedly, some haven’t been as enthusiastic, with another user saying: “Did I watch the wrong one, because there are only two intense sex scene there, everything else is like most of the other series.”
While someone else added: "So are the off campus sex scenes gonna be called porn too or is that just limited to heated rivalry cuz its gay."
For those that are interested in seeing what the hype is about, Off Campus is available to stream on Prime Video now.
