- TriviaAlanna Ubach's first and only nude scenes. When asked during an interview in 2009 whether she would ever perform nude, Ubach said she definitely would but only if it was for an HBO or Showtime series. Right after that she was cast to appear in the first season of this show, which aired on HBO. When producers asked if she'd be willing to go fully nude, she said "Absolutely!" Ubach said she had been willing to appear topless in Still Waiting (2009), which she made before this, but producers used a body double because "they felt her boobs weren't big enough." When she went fully nude in Hung, she pointed out that "no one had any complaints about my small tits."

Featured review
I just saw the pilot for this show. Its pretty funny and smart.
I liked Thomas Jane's character who's getting slapped around by life. I found it easy to empathise with Jane's character; he's kinda the average man who goes through life kind of coasting and wakes up after everything goes sideways on him. His wife leaves him for a guy with money, he's trying to hold everything together and can't seem to find the time or the energy to do so. Eventually, he takes stock of his life, "wasted" potential, limited options, poor job, non-existent prospect and he turns to his one asset; his skill as a lover and the fact that he's "hung" hence the title of the show. This leads him to prostitute himself.
In the end, his plan goes awry and he finds and unlikely pimp. The pilot sets a great tone and leaves the potential for equal parts comedy and drama. I am looking forward to the development of this series.
