List of Sex&Drugs&Rock&Roll episodes

Sex&Drugs&Rock&Roll is an American comedy television series, created by and starring Denis Leary, which premiered on FX on July 16, 2015.

The series follows Johnny Rock (Leary), lead singer of The Heathens, a rock band from the late 80s/early 90s that broke up following the release of only one album, mainly due to his life of excess. He struggles to make it in the music industry 25 years later. Rock's estranged daughter Gigi (Elizabeth Gillies) moves to New York to try to make it as a musician. She comes up with a proposition: if her dad reforms the Heathens, she'll replace him as lead singer, the band will change their name to The Assassins, and in return he'll stay on board as lead songwriter for the band, as well as coach to Gigi. Rock experiences the challenges of an aging rock star in a music landscape fueled by hip-hop and pop, as well as caring for someone other than himself for once with his daughter back in his life.

On September 8, 2016, FX canceled the series. During the course of the series, 20 episodes of Sex&Drugs&Rock&Roll aired over two seasons.

Johnny (Denis Leary) sees a girl staring at him in a bar and walks up to kiss her, only to learn (after being slapped in the face and kneeled in the balls) that she is his daughter, in which he never knew he had, Gigi (Elizabeth Gillies). On the verge of being dropped by his agent, Johnny mulls over his last remaining options as a singer: the Bryan Adams tribute band "Summer of '69" or another tribute band called "Jon Non Jovi". But things take a different turn when Gigi, an aspiring singer, offers $200,000 for Johnny and his former Heathens' guitarist Flash (John Corbett) to write some songs for her. The only problem is Johnny and Flash aren't on speaking terms, each blaming the other for breaking up the band back in 1990, whilst Flash also hints at attempting to sleep with Gigi. The group gets together at the end just to see if Gigi is as good as she says she is, or if she is just bluffing for their attention. The band plays their former hit song "Animal", and both Johnny and Flash are stunned by Gigi's singing as they realise the opportunity to get back into showbiz.

Johnny signs a contract with Gigi, stating that Gigi is the lead singer and he is a songwriter, agreeing to write five songs within the next two months. Rehab (John Ales) and Bam Bam (Robert Kelly) have already signed the contract. Flash has also signed it, but says it's not for the money as he is already successful enough. After a night of drugs and drinking, which he spent in the studio before passing out, Johnny offers the basic riff and melody for a song. Flash adds a hook and helps with the lyrics. The test run with Gigi singing the new song "Die Tryin'" goes well, and the band starts rehearsing and recording the song. With one song down and four to go, Johnny is blindsided by a sort of intervention held by the band members while the band's agent reveals a clause in the contract that stipulates Johnny must be sober, no drinking and definitely no drugs for at least 30 days. Johnny argues that "all the great ones" wrote their best stuff while under the influence, but the group still tries to keep him clean. When the next song he writes is awful, the group allows him to go back to drinking and drugs..."but no cocaine".
