Uhm, what?
In the 40s and 50s, married couples could not be shown on tv sleeping in the same bed. That's why Lucy and Ricky slept in twin beds.
Today we have oral sex being simulated in soap operas and sit coms, and entire series like Desperate Housewives, Nip/Tuck and Jersey Shore, among countless others - pretty much all of which revolve around nothing but sex with anyone and everyone as often as possible. If the first episode of FX's American Horror Story had been filmed in the 1980s it would most likely have only been shown on Cinemax Late Night, cause it's pretty much soft-core porn.
Society is drenched in sex today, from tv to magazines to bilboard ads. It's even in freakin M&M candy commercials. Twisted, yes. Prudish, not by a long shot.

do you think lucy and ricky sleeping in separate beds was the right approach?
this is somewhat off topic, but in general I disagree with you here, relationships and sex are an intrinsic part of what it means to be human so yes it should be prevalent in society, it's just that some like to keep it to their relationship/ wife only and others are more open about it
and for every bad show that revolves in fluffy manner around sex, there is a bad show does not contain sex at all, so sex doesn't make a bad show
just as you stated that nothing requires me to purchase at Renderosity, nothing also requires you to watch these shows, I don't
