A recent social media post sparked widespread speculation that Netflix had rolled out a feature allowing users to skip sex scenes. The frenzy began when Bridgerton actress Nicola Coughlan hinted at a PG version of the show for her parents. However, the excitement reached a peak when content creator Soren Iverson shared an image that appeared to be an official announcement of the feature. The image, cleverly edited, depicted a scene from the show and suggested that users could remove “naughty” scenes to make family viewing more comfortable.
Iverson’s post garnered significant attention, amassing 27 million views on X platform, with many users expressing relief at the prospect of such a feature. However, it soon became apparent that the announcement was a hoax. Despite the enthusiasm from fans, the “Skip the Foreplay” feature does not actually exist.
In response to the confusion, Iverson clarified in a subsequent post that his original announcement was meant to be humorous and not to be taken seriously. He urged followers to appreciate the comedic aspect and invited them to engage with his other content.
So, while the idea of a feature to skip intimate scenes may have seemed appealing to some, viewers will still need to rely on their own methods for navigating such content during family viewing sessions. The “Skip the Foreplay” feature, unfortunately, remains nothing more than a clever invention.
