“[It] contributed NOTHING to the plot and then [she] DIED like three minutes later. What the f**k was the reason?!!”
However, others defended the show, with one writing: "People who don’t like seeing sex scenes in movies, should check movie ratings and choose accordingly!
"And If you can’t separate acting from real life, you need help! The rating is right there! Use it! Besides, people [are] having sex all the time in real life.”
Another added: “The worst thing about the Swarm sex scene discourse is finding out how many grown adults think the actors are having actual sex on camera in movies and shows…??”
The series also stars pop singer Billie as Eva, a women empowerment cult leader that takes Dre under her wing in a later episode, as well as Rory Culkin and Paris Jackson.
Swarm is available on Prime Video now.
