John Adams, the 2008 HBO miniseries, is a powerful and compelling look at the life of the second president of the United States. While the series is full of historical moments and political intrigue, it also contains some surprisingly explicit sexual moments.
The first of these moments comes early in the series, when John and Abigail Adams (played by Paul Giamatti and Laura Linney) consummate their marriage. The scene is surprisingly graphic, with the couple shown in various stages of undress, and the camera lingering on their passionate embrace. It is a powerful moment that sets the tone for the rest of the series.
The second sexual moment comes later in the series, when John and Abigail are reunited after a long separation. The scene is tender and romantic, with the couple embracing and kissing passionately. It is a beautiful moment that shows the depth of their love for one another.
The third sexual moment comes near the end of the series, when John and Abigail are reunited for the last time. This scene is even more explicit than the first, with the couple shown in various stages of undress and the camera lingering on their passionate embrace. It is a powerful moment that shows the strength of their love for one another, even in the face of death.

In some episodes, Abigail wears low cut dresses
One scene where John Adams walks in on Benjamin Franklin and a woman while they are in the bath playing a game of checkers. The scene is played for comedy and there is no nudity involved, with the exception of some possible nude paintings on the wall.
A couple have sex a couple of times in the movie, though they are clothed and it is cut short before anything explicit happens.
We see a stark naked man being tarred. He is stripped and his bare buttocks are visible several times. There are also brief glimpses of his genitals.
We see a woman's breast clearly on center screen for a long time. There are two occurrences of this. One of them is due to a breast amputation.
A few sexual references, mostly mild. When Benjamin Franklin and John Adams visit France, there are some innuendos exchanged during a dinner. Also references to prostitutes. Adams is appalled by the amount of sensuality that occurs in France.
