The marriage of investment banker Neil Truman and his wife, Grace, has grown stagnant through the years, a fact driven home for Neil when he discovers that his wife is involved with a male escort. After gaining possession of the escort's phone, he learns what his wife thinks of him and what is motivating her to stray while she contemplates whether their marriage is worth saving or if it is time to move on. The drama series looks to answer the question of what to do when having it all is not enough.

10/18/2015 Sometimes uncomfortable to watch. Loved matt Passmore from The Glades and here as well. See more 09/01/2014 What a waste of Matt Passmore. This porno program is disgusting and does not belong on netwoork TV. Is there no decency remaining in this country? See more 08/09/2014 Usually I don't care for this type of show, but this one is damn good. It's one of the few shows currently on TV that I actually watch every week. See more 08/01/2014 We real like the show See more 07/18/2014 USA would like you to believe that this is their Thursday night sexy and erotic soft-core porno about marriage dissatisfaction. The commercials made me (an early 20s male) not want to see the show at all. If not for a friend's recommendation I would not have watched one of the best pilots I have seen this year. Satisfaction is not afraid to ask the hard questions. What is the point of the American Dream? What is living a worthwhile life? Neil Truman has reached the pinnacle of the working mans dream. He has everything a man could want and yet he still can't see the point. Why work so hard making money, when you don't get to spend any of it with the ones you love? His wife is living the "perfect woman's life". She has nice things, a daughter, and a job. The one thing she wants is more attention from her husband. Their daughter Anika, goes to a great school, has a family with money, and everything society says will make her happy. And she too is dissatisfied. It is sad that all three just want each other and instead go elsewhere for satisfaction. Funny enough the highly paid male escort is the only person who seems happy. The pilot goes on to be full of twists and turns as each character fights to find satisfaction in their own way. I connected with satisfaction because I too ask the question, am I content with the "perfect" life society sells us. Why am I going to college? I am getting in debt just so that I can get a piece of paper, which allows me to get a job. So that one day I will make money, have a family, retire, and die. What is the point? Are you satisfied with the life you are "supposed" to live? Matt Passmore, Blair Redford, and Michelle Deshon were fantastic. Each had several scenes that I enjoyed. Matt Passmore plays a strong lead character; Blair Redford played a male escort that I found myself rooting for on more then one occasion. Michelle Deshon had a brilliant scene at her school talent show. I unfortunately cannot say the same for Stephanie Szostak. For some reason she never seemed believable to me, and her performance annoyed me. Writing 8/10 Cast 8/10 Directing 10/10 Production 10/10 I look forward to seeing if they can keep as high a production value for the following episodes. See more Read all reviews
