“We're going to break the Internet on May 19,” said “The Sex Factor’s” executive producer and creator, Buddy Ruben.

A spokesperson for “The Sex Factor” said, “Fans will appreciate the show’s fast-paced action, behind-the-scenes exploits, and the sheer spectacle of porn stars teaching civilians the tricks of the trade. Episodes are filled with hardcore sex, technical coaching, drama, humor, and all of the bloopers you’d expect.”
