I wrote a post once about how often Jake does "being sad in the shower" scenes (and yes it was stuffed with images, of course it was, so click on that link) and I kept thinking about that watching Presumed Innocent, his Apple+ series that just had its finale this week. Because there was a scene of him showering in nearly every episode -- either running on his treadmill or showering after said run or both, or one one wonderful ocassion dropping his grays weatpants after his run and giving us a great show.
Anyway my point is I will miss the Weekly Jake Gyllenhaal Shower Program -- it was great while it lasted. (I have a feeling the already announced "second season" will center on different characters, but I guess we'll see.) But was it though? Great, I mean? The showering was - the show itself was really just fine. Sometimes riveting and well-acted (no I am not talking to you, O-T Fagbenle -- you are in prison for that voice) but mostly just kinda there. (And I agree with my pal Dustin at Pajiba on the ending they picked.) But the show did give us lots of fleeting shots of Jake vigorously humping, and for that we cannot, we will not, totally dismiss it.

That last scene with him “entering” her about did me in!!
Of all the people who remain in my age range when I first fell in lust with them, Jake remains at or near the top; sadly Ryan Reynolds keeps his facial hair far more often than I am willing to forgive, even as his also maintains his physique.
As far as Jake's nudity, and showering, I'm sure it wasn't planned at the start. He had to maintain his workout routine from Road House even though that movie was completely finished, simply to do a tie-in promotional event that required him to stay in shape that matched that Crapazom video, while he was filming Presumed Innocence.
Even if Jake appears in the second season, which I also doubt he will other than an extended set of cameos or the like, and even if he showed some skin, he would not be required to be in that shape so we'd likely get the Okja or Velvet Buzzshaw body.
I'm mean, I'd still cook him dinner and ask him to spend the night....
