Season 1
It's been the world's oldest profession, but being a high-class call girl operating in big city today, can lead to many fascinating storylines.
Set in and around 232, an up-market urban brothel in Australia, the Satisfaction follows the lives of six very different women and their manager as they juggle the pressures of their private lives and their clandestine occupation.
Satisfaction exposes the secret world of sex workers whilst uncovering the relationships they forge - as worker, mother, sister, brother, friend... and lover.
Season 2
With the first season's shattering conclusion, Season 2 finds the girls of Satisfaction picking up the pieces - where rivalry abounds, secrets are uncovered and futures questioned.
Back to work, and with the introduction of a new escort, 232 continues to service its clients like never before - yet behind the thin professional veil, relationships are tested and the boundaries of love crossed.
While the girls reel from the news of Nick's death in the premiere episode of the new season, battle lines are drawn between Nat and Mel over the ownership of 232.
Nat retreats into the safety of her fetish and Mel, having considered giving up the game, reaches for her little black book and gets together with a psychologist client - but to his surprise she turns the tables.
After losing the baby, Heather is attempting to get on with her own life and moves into a new house with Lauren.
Satisfaction 2 exposes the secret world of sex workers whilst uncovering the relationships they forge - as worker, mother, sister, brother, friend... and lover.

Tough financial times threaten 232 and two new girls will upset the order of life in the brothel.
There's Amy, an upstart uni student who'll do whatever it takes to keep the customers coming back; in doing so ruffling quite a few feathers.
