About

Dirty Diana is great narrative fiction with a magnificent lead: Demi Moore. Shana Feste based the series on the period when she and her husband were separated and dating other people. The plot focuses on Diana, who runs a secret business that records the fantasies of women and sells the audio on the internet. When she’s doing her job or having private conversations with friends, she’s uninhibited. Meanwhile, she and her husband haven’t slept together in a year. The show is hardcore and sex positive, which is essential given that Diana tries to sell the female imagination, not male-driven smut. Every character seems almost hopelessly oversexed in conversation, but the show brilliantly contrasts their desires with their actions. The difference between Dirty Diana and porn is that—like in real life—people don’t always act on their libidos, their filthy minds notwithstanding.
