Dying for Sex is an American comedy drama miniseries. Based loosely on the real-life experiences of Molly Kochan and written by Liz Meriwether and Kim Rosenstock, the show depicts her being diagnosed with terminal cancer and leaving her husband in search of an orgasm. The series stars Michelle Williams and Jenny Slate, with recurring features from Rob Delaney, David Rasche, Esco Jouléy, Jay Duplass, Kelvin Yu, Sissy Spacek, and Zack Robidas. Broadcast on April 4, 2025, on Hulu and Disney+, the show made the top ten most-streamed series in the U.S. from March 31 to April 6 and received largely positive critical reception.

At the 77th Primetime Emmy Awards, the miniseries has received nine nominations, including for Outstanding Limited or Anthology Series and acting nominations for Williams, Slate, and Delaney.
