    While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

    Satisfaction is one of the better Aussie t.v shows that rises among many others. The show centers around a high class brothel, known as 232, and it's women workers, some of them real hotties, though sexually I really loved Camille Keehan the best, as the more vulnerable, younger, sexier, and less experienced Amy. The show follows the lives of the women outside of the establishment, one with a lesbian lover, another grounded, who hasn't told her daughter what she does yet. Kestie Morassi as the young lass, running the establishment, is great, her strong independent character, masking a lot of insecurities, while Diana Glen, too, is hot, as that grounded mother. We see too, the forms in which their clients come, of course, getting the odd dangerous one. One client of Peta Sergents, the lesbian beauty, gets together with her on the outside for some role playing, him as a kid, Sergent as the mother, I couldn't believe, but it was bloody funny. Satisfaction is almost as raunchy and bold as Secret Diary Of a Call Girl, with it's hot sex scenes, some bloody memorable. Too working in 232, comes male stud, Damien (Dustin Clare) Get this, Keehan's character pays Clare off hours, for some in out, in out. His sister, played by Madeline West who takes over the establishment in the series, walks in and is reassured by Clare who says "Money changed hands". I really liked the brother/sister relationship here. There are so many memorable bits in Satisfaction, a lot of them sexual, and this show does grow on you. The actresses, actors, really turn in good performances, notably best, Morassi, as well as Glen, who's very strong. The characters are real, they have flaws, some carrying a lot of baggage, in particular, Amy. The story lines are different, some of them shockingly tragic, like the beautiful Novakovic's character, who dons a blonde wig at the establishment. A couple are clichéd, and worn, but this show really has you. It's strong, well acted with it's take note performances, and very very sexy. Don't miss out.

    Oh I loved how beautifully they've brought up each character in this show. Im absolutely mezmerized, and left addicted to it. I couldn't believe it was over i wish they had shown a little better closure on the characters lives. Please please please! can some one suggest similar shows. Not 'secret diary of a call girl' some home a sex scene feels ridiculous without nudidty, sweat, panting. I feel Secret diary of a call girl is more commercialized, where the main character....i donot knopw how to put this correctly...'non- relatable', or too superfitial. I guess what im trying to say is that in 'satisfaction they could successfully show each character as normal individuals u meet in ur day to day life, with real problems, and emotions.So u guys must have picked up the hint by how impressed im by the shows and am craving to c more of similar show's with real in depth feeling. I have tried every possible way of searching for similar shows but in vain u guys r my last hope. Love, Jessica.

    I was very disappointed and surprised to hear "Satisfaction" had been canceled after only 3 seasons. I have to be honest, till recent years I have not been a fan of Australian TV series. However, shows like this and "Love My Way" and "Spirited" have changed my mind and made me take a second look at Australia drama."Satisfaction" could have continued for at least another 2 seasons. Stories were left untold. The writing was good and it had an excellent ensemble. I found myself very involved with the various characters and as another reviewer stated --- at last a show in which sex workers are not presented as one dimensional.It's good to see series like "Satisfaction" and "Secret Diary of a Call Girl" and others showing sex workers in a much more realistic light. Sex workers are usually wrongly portrayed as down and out, amoral junkies. This is a complete myth and is also born from misogyny. Personally I have a number of friends who are sex workers and they are some of the most caring, open-minded and non-judgmental people I've ever had the pleasure of knowing. They've shared many stories about their lives and their experiences and a great deal of their work involves compassion, kindness and acceptance. I hope at least in this short run of "Satisfaction" it will help change the public's mind about the negative stereotypes portrayed until now.

    As someone who has worked in a similar type establishment, I was really curious to see how this portrayal of sex workers and their client in a legal Melbourne brothel would pan out. There is a long history of sex workers being portrayed in film and television as victims. I know that there are women in the industry who have had horrible experiences, but there are a lot of women in every day life who have also had these kind of experiences, but prostitutes are usually disproportionately portrayed as having being sexually abused, being drug dependent or being abused by men.I was so pleased with Satisfaction. Although it is a television drama, (and it does look like one) with gorgeous characters in gorgeous clothes living in gorgeous homes, what it succeeds so well at is its portrayal of the workers as complex women from different backgrounds, working in a well run industry for their own reasons. It is interesting that there is a focus on sexual fantasy type bookings, which is not the general brothel experience, but I guess it is the most interesting for television! The sex scenes are realistic, and not tacky, and the clients are also more than the usual one dimensional 'john'. This is really great Australian television! And for those Australian women (and few men) who have never set foot in an Australian brothel, this is about as close as television/film gets to portraying something close to the real thing. 10/10.
