‘Masters Of Sex’ Season 2 Premiere: Lizzy Caplan’s Virginia Gets Naked After Season 1 Nudity Got Cut Out [VIDEO]
Masters of Sex returns on July 13, but if you're a member of star Lizzy Caplan's family, you probably won't be watching the hit program. Caplan recently confessed that she would definitely be naked for Season 2 and she's not letting certain family members watch.
Is A New Character Getting In Between Masters and Johnson?
Caplan stars as Virginia Johnson on the hit Showtime drama opposite Michael Sheen as Bill Masters.
"Season 2 should be interesting because for Season 1, Valerie Joseph, our lovely post-production supervisor - because we had a lot more time between wrapping, shooting and the airdate of the show - made "family edits" that artfully cut out everything that had to do with Virginia being naked," Caplan told TV Line about her character. "Everybody else's nudity and stuff was in there, but mine was cut out."
Although Caplan was lucky then, she said that for Season 2, the producers told her that would not be an option.

"So as we gear up for the airdate of Season 2, this will be the first time I have to have that conversation with my family, because it's definitely not something that I want them to watch," the actress continued about the on-screen nudity. "I thought perhaps I would have matured a bit in the last year to wrap my head around it, but I can safely tell you I have absolutely no interest in the male members of my family watching Season 2 of Masters of Sex."
Caplan said that her family has developed a system where a female member tells the male ones when "to close their eyes," but that she isn't present for the watching.
"I try to stay out of it, because if I were to take that on as my problem, I'd probably have a stroke."
