'How To Get Away With Murder' Controversial Sex Scene

"How to Get Away with Murder" made headlines in Italy after Rai Due, an Italian television network, aired a censored version of an episode on Jul. 8 where the raunchy sex scene between two main characters, Connor (Jack Falahee) and Oliver (Conrad Ricamora) was deleted. According to Refinery29, the censorship caused a major social media outrage where Falahee, as well executive producers Shonda Rhimes and Pete Nowalk expressed their disappointment over the network's decision on Twitter.

In addition, "How to Get Away with Murder" season 3 star Falahee also shared a Change.org petition against the Italian network with a hashtag #LoveIsLove. Meanwhile, Rai Due had already responded with an apology and the full uncensored version of the episode was aired on Jul. 10.
