In the first episode of the second season, Tim gets naked, climbs in bed with Jenny, and proceeds to take her clothes off and have sex with her, despite her saying no at least a dozen times. It's very uncomfortable to watch.

Characters have their entire lives and sexual encounters in their house filmed without their consent. It is the season with the film-maker roommate and is a plot point throughout that particular season.
